    Heartbreak for Japan. Give up goal in extra time to lose to Brazil 2-1 after leading at halftime.

      I guess. But there are going to be a few like that. Mostly the additional teams have fought like hell.
      Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

        Germany loses to Paraguay in shootout. Biggest upset so far. Germany has failed to reach round of 16 since winning it all in 2014. Big one tonight between Netherlands and Morocco. Before the World Cup started, Morocco and Netherlands were ranked 7 and 8 in the FIFA world rankings.

          It’s called the World Cup, ain’t it? Make it a true World Cup and invite every nation to participate. Single elimination tournament. If Vatican City prefers not to be embarrassed by, say, France, it ain’t gotta sign up. If there’s an odd number of sign ups, allow the United Kingdom to play. Would make great Cinderella stories.

            Technically, the losses were my “winnings.” Was up 15k at the high point. Not in the red (yet?) but the current “downswing” has decreased the winnings to a puny 4k.

            I am demoralized beyond fuck.

              Gambling ain’t fun when you lose. Prolonged losing can cause demoralization.

                Did anyone see Micah Parsons in Dallas watching the Norway vs. Ivory Coast game?
