Hopefully this is the only Gold he sees this summer LOL

I dont like the neon with Gold
Would have been nicer gold/black or gold/blue. Gold with neon...yuck

I agree a healthy Ronaldo might have changed a lot. Pepe's moronic play against Germany cost them he has himself to blame. Go figure you can bite someone and not get a red but a tap of the headbutt gets the red. It's a lot of "ifs" but Portugal will be back. William Carvalho should have played against Germany also the kid is for real and a bright spot for the future. Anyone I will be cheering for the USA as well. I will be sporting this jersey that Concepts did here in Boston looks just like the old school USA jersey from the 94 Cup.

Well what do you know, Taylor "Twinkle Toes" Twellman is doing the USA game. Hopefully we can all hear him scream like a little girl when the US scores a goal again

 

[tomdiginson]

Uruguay? Well, technically he got ya'll that far.
Liverpool? He'll still come through with that golden boot end of season.

Thats true, but I'd like to start the campaign off with a full and healthy roster. Hopefully we land Shaqiri to bolster our midfield

@MariaSharapova
 I missed the goal but I didn't miss this...I have to marry all 4? #WorldCup2014 
 

Can't believe Sasha Vujacic is diving in those yambs
I really wish I was a 6+ foot un-athletic, no skill, spot up shooter who gets buckets because the other team is triple teaming Kobe.

Ohh and being almost dead last in our ESPN bracket :x
Thanks a lot England, Spain, Italy and Bosnia

Shaw to be announced today and the Vidal rumors seem to be starting again..

I saw that. Gutsy prediction fam! I barely saw anyone choose any team outside of Brazil, Argentina and Germany. The person on top of our group chose Spain as the winner. That means my bracket might still be alive

 

[Sinner]

Suarez supported by Maradona, gran

Shaw to be announced today and the Vidal rumors seem to be starting again..

 

[jking0821]

At least Ian and Maca have Brazil vs Chile.  They are my favorite commentators of the world cup

Folks still struggling to deal with inflation in this thread I see...

Same thing was said about Bale....same was said about Ronaldo....same was said about Ferdinand when he signed to United.

The money in football is growing every single day...

 

[eiddyfouw]

It sure doesn't hurt that he has this in his locker too...

 

[Retroballer]

Just pointing out what money gets you now a days. Don't get your panties in a bunch.

Plus forgot to mention he's English.

If Shaw were from Europe or anywhere else he would have been there for 18m or less. But that English tax is serious, not much one can do about it.

So there's no real point in comparing Shaw and Hazard's price tag directly when it comes to the prem.

Man Utd sign Shaw & Herrera, Man City sign Fernando, Chelsea sign Fabregas, Liverpool to sign Lallana. Meanwhile...
