I know this is early, but I am so hyped. Tomorrow is the last day of the European qualifiers.

Here are the games for tomorrow, all times EST:

1:00PM @Ukraine Vs Greece
12:30AM @Algeria Vs Egypt
2:45PM @Bosnia-Herzegovina Vs Portugal
2:45PM @Slovenia Vs Russia
6:00PM @Uruguay Vs Costa Rica
3:00PM @France Vs Republic of Ireland

Make your picks, personally all I really care about is the Bosnia/Portugal game. I still can't believe that my little country got so far, Portugal is playing like shit and only won the last game because we hit the post 3 fucking times. Win or lose, I am going to be a drunk mess. HAJMO BOSNA, SHOKIRAJ SVIJET!

Anyway, I'll give my picks:

Ukraine Vs Greece 1/0
Algeria Vs Egypt 2/1
Bosnia-Herzegovina Vs Portugal I don't want to jinx it
Slovenia Vs Russia 2/1
Uruguay Vs Costa Rica 2/0
France Vs Republic of Ireland 2/0

Portugal flew in to Sarajevo and they got heckled right when they got to the airport, its fucking crazy dude. They are going to play in Zenica, that place is a fucking madhouse. The soccer field itself sucks, and the place actually shakes when it's full. Ahhhh, fuck, I am so excited, I wish I could go back home and see them myself.

Bosnia had a choice to pick the stadium by where I grew up in Sarajevo and where they had the Olympics, or the fucking steel mill stadium in Zenica, of course they chose Zenica. Sneaky fuckers. They knew outside teams would have a hard time dealing with that stadium.

Everyone from back home is calling and texting me freaking out, you have no clue man. Winning this thing and finally getting in the cup would be the best thing that happened to us in a long time.

Let me also add, just think if the Yugoslavia team was still together? All the best players from Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia, Slovenia, and Montenegro. We would be serious contenders for the cup.

Ireland totally choked at home, and though France sucks massive dick this year, they are playing at home and should qualify.

ireland played fairly well, neither team could finish for shit. France was sub par, and ireland was about where they normally play.


it won't be easy, but i'm pulling for France, what with being French and all

I really don't like how Ireland plays, I just think it's shitty football. France isn't much better, but it's fucking France, not being in the Cup would be a joke.

One word: Zidane.

And fuck those sad French cunts. I would love to set them all on fire, especially Platini, Henry and Domenech.
