Greatest World Cup Preview in the History of the World: Group F
Its Group F baby, lets get it on.
BRAZIL
FIFA Ranking: 1
Elo Ranking: 1
What I like about Brazil: One word names: Romario, Bebeto, Pele. I wish I could go by one name, but I’m not Brazilian, such a gyp.
What I don’t like about Brazil: Those turncoat Portuguse fans they pick up along the way.
Outlook: If they don’t advance, I will eat a soccer ball raw. That’s right, no cooking. Rebel.
CROATIA
FIFA Ranking: 23
Elo Ranking: 17
Why I like Croatia: I remember my peep Daniel Suker (or whatever) winning the golden boot that one year and them being the big upset team in that tourney.
Why I don’t like Croatia: The Ringer’s a Serb and he’d rip my face off with his bare hands if I cheer for them (ok maybe not).
Outlook: 2nd place, advancing
AUSTRALIA
FIFA Ranking: 42
Elo Ranking: 20
Why I like Australia: Kangeroos baby. And how bout Koala bears… hot damn Australia, you’re hogging all the cool animals.
Why I don’t like Australia: No reason, they are money.
Outlook: They’ll be play Croatia tight, but sadly I don’t see them moving on.
JAPAN
FIFA Ranking: 18
Elo Ranking: 26
Why I like Japan: They have some cool Japanese restuarants around here. Those Asian teams make good underdogs.
Why I don’t like Japan: WAY overrated in the FIFA Rankings. Those devious Nakata guys.
Outlook: Last place
