So, yet again, Brazil got an easy group.

The US also got a fairly challenge less group of opponents.

As for Costa Rica (Who Im rooting for the most), first game of the cup is with them vs. Germany.

GO COSTA RICA!!

....Oh and US too

I thought this was a tough draw for the US...isn't the Czech Republic and Italy supposed to be pretty tough? I'm not a huge soccer fan or anything, but I'm definatly trying to keep up with it this time and learn some...I think if people in the US were as fired up over soccer as other countries it would be hella fun to watch and play...

Oh hush. If you know football at all ... which you probably don't since Brazil's national league is so poor ... you'll know that any team can beat any other team on it's day. England have some of the best players in the world in Beckham, Owen, Rooney and Lampard.

Personally I think that England will play Brazil in the semis and the winner of that game will go on to win the World Cup.

damn, Brazils league is soo poor, so poor in fact that Sao Paulo managed to beat the European champions, Liverpool (which is rich and from England), and became World Champions? Imagine if Brazils league, heh even Argentinas, had as much money as their European counterparts?

Probably will be England vs Brazil semi final, what an encounter :D

and Matheus, please shut ur mouth, heh its not even worth arguing with him over the net guys, he just does it for fun ;)

I dunno, don't France have some decent players? I'm expecting Zidane, Henry and Pires to play a huge role - unless they're beaten by an unseeded African team like last time :p.

Vieira, Zidane, Trezeguet, Henry, Cisse are probably Frances start players.

They are not as good as they once were, many of their best players have ages (eg: Thuram, Desailly, Zidane, Pires etc).

I highly dout that France will win the World Cup, but anything is possible.

Personally, I think Brazil have a very good chance of winning the World Cup, know one can deny that. They are not as good as Mateus says, but they are still a good team ;)

After Mateus's comments, I hope Brazil don't win.

if you look at some off his previous comments i wouldn't listen to him! I remember the England vs Argentina incident, he was soo sure that Argentina was gonna beat England, England was 2-1 down, so he decided to post a lot of BS about us losing only problem, there was 15 mins left of the game. And everyone knows what happened in those 15 minutes!

So just look at his posts and just laugh!

Matheus you dumb****....stop this bull****.

With your stupid comments now everybody hate brazil.....even me, im starting to want to see brazil eliminated soon in the wc06 just to see your **** reaction.

The image you show about Brazil doesnt reflect our ppl.

I dont know from what hole you came out, but i hope you will return soon.

I, more than anybody else think that we have the best national team today but your way to epxress that became out of control.

I started this thread so we could discuss about the next world cup with inteligence.

But because of you it is turning into a insult thing, i contacted a mod about your behaviour and i hope they will stop your crap. (but do not lock this thread)

I would like to discuss my opinions and how i think Brazil could win the next world cup, but now i cant because im afraid to look retard like you.

You are shame to our ppl.

:angry:

don't you get the reasons on why you was banned from your first account? So why not take the hint from the banning off your first account and shut up and leave the talk to football, to people that know what there on about, because you narrow minded brain don't!

    • Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution by Taras Buria Earlier this week, Microsoft announced the Surface Laptop Ultra, its brand-new high-end laptop powered by NVIDIA's brand-new RTX Spark processor. As usual, Microsoft gives each new device a unique wallpaper, and the Surface Laptop Ultra is no exception. While the device is not publicly available yet, somebody has already extracted its wallpaper, giving everyone a chance to get a piece of the upcoming laptop in its full-resolution glory. The Surface Laptop Ultra has a very dark, abstract wallpaper that resembles the stock wallpapers in Windows Server, albeit with much less color. Having this dark, grim wallpaper highlights the laptop's mini-LED display and its ability to cut off parts of the screen's backlight to achieve OLED-like black levels. However, if you also like light wallpapers, we made a white version by simply inverting its colors. You can download both wallpapers below (click the image, right-click it, and select "Save as"): The Surface Laptop Ultra is expected to launch later this year. Microsoft is not revealing full details yet, including the price. However, Microsoft confirmed up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and RTX 5070-level of GPU performance. The heart of the laptop has up to 20 CPU cores and 6,144 GPU cores. Additionally, Microsoft and NVIDIA boast high CPU efficiency for all-day battery life. As for the display, it is a 15-inch mini-LED display with a pixel density of 262 ppi and a maximum brightness of 2,000 nits. Of course, not everyone needs this amount of power, and certainly not everyone can afford it. For those who need a more affordable device, Microsoft is also preparing the next-generation Surface Pro powered by the Snapdragon X2 Elite processor. Weeks ahead of the announcement, details about this computer were leaked by a retailer. Do you like the Surface Laptop Ultra's stock wallpaper? Share your thoughts in the comments.

    • Governments are ruining the internet to protect kids but there is a much better way

      By WaltC · Posted

      From all that I've read on the subject--not that much, really--it looks to me like companies and parents are trying to protect themselves from children using their parents accounts to run up giant bills, sometimes in the thousands of dollars, and the first the parents know about it is when they get sued... Internet companies have been sued for tailoring their ads to children, which is kind of old news. My belief is that policing starts at home with the parents, and the reason that so many laws that can't be enforced are being passed is because parents are eschewing their responsibilities, claiming not enough time, not enough knowledge, etc. Giving kids cell phones sans Internet connectivity is a good place to start--confine Internet activity to PCs in the home that the parents regulate. My kids are all grown and gone, I'm happy to say... They have their own kids to worry about.

    • [NEWS] Over 105000 games are available to play on Linux.

      By Case_f · Posted

      BTW DXVK is also available on Windows and offers similar benefits like on Linux when it comes to performance, at least in some titles. The Raceroom racing sim for example even offers DXVK as one of its officially supported options and it can achieve ridiculous improvements in certain situations, like quite literally doubling (or more) the framerates
