I'm tied for 3rd with a bunch of others right now and there's no chance of me winning first place since I picked Argentina and England to compete in the 3rd place match. However, if Wes Sneijder comes through and scores in the final game, I may end up with some money for 3rd place. I picked Spain to win, however, so my ideal outcome is for Spain to win by shootout (say 1-1) with Sneijder scoring for the Dutch.

I'm going with Spain as the winners come Sunday but I think it'll be a tight game.

edit* also, sucks that Pedro didn't pass to Torres near the end, game could have ended up being 2-0

My parents flew out of Amsterdam yesterday and they said the entire airport was at a standstill, when they won the entire airport erupted. When I went to go pick them up at the airport, there were all these dutch people waiting around for rides and cabs wearing orange and going nuts. Man, I bet they must have partied hard last night lol.

Thank goodness David Villa didn't score. My golden boot pick is Wes Sneijder, and guess who is up there with Villa? That's right - Sneijder.
And I made my picks based on reading a primer in 24 Hours a day before the tourney. | Yeah, same here... I really don't know shit about soccer... but for my office pool, just looked up the FIFA rankings and based my picks off of there... and threw in a few upsets... and ended up with Netherlands vs Spain final as well.

As a fan, my World Cup ended with the elimination of Brazil (a sad, sad day) but I had Spain forced upon me in the office pool, so I guess I root for Spain!

I wanted Torres to score so bad, thought for sure the pass was coming.That goal for Torres might have been the one to ignite him and give him a boost of confidence.
