World Cup

Just entered a contest to pick the winner on Facebook. Chose Netherlands, based on nothing. When it comes to soccer, I have no expertise - but I do enjoy watching the games every four years.

But remember - if they do manage to pull the upset, you read it here first. At least I think you did, because I haven't seen anyone else pick them.

Hey Jeff, I like your Holland pick, actually. One of the cool things of living over here is the world cup and one other is the betting shops. 5 weeks ago, I actually placed two 20 GBP bets on the World Cup. I bet on Brazil and Holland to win the tournament, at odds of 5/1 and 11/1, respectively. FYI, the current market reads: Spain 7/2, Brazil 9/2, Argentina 6/1, England 7/1, Holland 11/1, Germany and Italy 16/1 and all others 20/1 or worse (including USA at 66/1).

Cheers.
