Teams in italics are expected by myself to advance. We'll find out tomorrow.

Success rates by region:
CONCACAF 66%
AFC 50%
OFC 0%(but HUGE improvement for NZ all sorts of "first this and first that". Eliminated without losing a game).
CAF 14%
CONMEBOL 100%
UEFA 46%

======================================================
So who would I like to see in the semi's? I mean like/want/desire not who I expect so don't go bashing my underdogs.

United States v Slovakia
Mexico v Japan

Who do I expect?
United States v Brazil
Portugal v Germany

But I'm still holding out for a MEXICO V UNITED STATES final. That would so utterly rock my world.

Step 2) Do you have the tools? Step 3) Are you practicing the fundamentals? Step 4) Are you prepared for the long haul? And Step 5) How to finish with a resounding silence. Are the appropriate debuffs up? You absolutely MUST have these debuffs up to start and you need to keep them up. There are only two of them and here they are in the order of priority: a) Clean Diaper. If Orclette's Diaper isn't clean you won't be able to contain the agro. I don't care how good your other fundamentals are. This is a MUST HAVE and should be chec...
