I need good juju do you have fingers and toes to cross? England scored a goal against Sweden. Oh please don't let us loose!
Who is us?

The fucking vikings I assume. Go Svenske! You never wore horned helmets and you don't need to lose to the Roast Beef.

Sorry Hugh. That's "us". You know silly trivia, we never let England win. It's tradition. Other can beat the shit out of us, but NEVVAAAR ENGLAND! Noo!

I dunno why. I s'pose we're still cross about having viking brothers kill each other in that whole 1066 battle of Hastings tiff.

Isn't enough that you are fucking good looking people and live in a civilized country?! Now, you have to win the World Cup too?

tsk! tsk! tsk! some people can't get satisfied with nothing!

Heh. I've always been a fan of Henrik Larsson, and Freddy Ljungberg spent about six months looking down at me in his underwear from a billboard at Broadway and Houston last year. I don't much like rooting for England, who don't need the win, right? So sure, I'll cross body parts for Sweden. Someday, I know, Sweden will do the same for me.

Do Sweden advance with a draw?
posted by Hugh Janus 20 June | 15:50
*runs over to hug halonine* MWAH! Thankyou! YEay! A draw! yeah, good question Hugh, do we advance? I think that depends on what happens in other games.. Oh dear...

carmina ,its not civilized. But everything else is true!

*buys everyone pints* Good game!

*wonders if Sweden has body parts to cross*

I fear that if the Paraguay result stands, it might be England and Paraguay advancing. But I don't have a table in front of me, so I really don't know, and I really want to leave work, like, five minutes ago.

Great game, Sverige! Great game, England! Great game, Metachat!

you better win the germans now, miss dabitch!
posted by carmina 20 June | 15:56
of course you advance!!!! what are you guys talking about?!!!
posted by carmina 20 June | 15:57
even if Paraguay wins they get 3 fucking points (they had 0) and Sweden has already 5. I am getting pissed here.....

:-)
no, not really.
posted by carmina 20 June | 15:59
Holy crap, we go against the Germans now? Oh that's never good.
posted by dabitch 20 June | 16:09
To be honest I never did get my head around that points system.
posted by dabitch 20 June | 16:10
Paraguay was not going to advance no matter what happened today. T&T could have advanced, I believe, it they had beat Paraguay and Sweden had lost to England--but only if they won the tie-breaker, but I'm not going to try to figure that out.

no, don't even think about it. you have to win!
posted by carmina 20 June | 16:19
mullacc, T&T would have to win Paraguay with 2 goals difference and Sweden would have to have lost.
posted by carmina 20 June | 16:20
Yay! Sweden can do it, dabitch! :)

I've been using this to figure out the standings (Wikipedia--a little slow to load).
posted by halonine 20 June | 16:43
I think Hugh is just getting his South American nations mixed up. Ecuador are indeed going through, but they are in Group A whereas England and Sweden are in Group B.

How does this juju work exactly? Should dabitch have asked for a victory instead? Or is it like those fairy tales where the more humble the wish, the more likey it is to come true?

I thought you were Danish.
posted by Eideteker 21 June | 03:24
I'm not but my baby is. :) (yes, you could read that as to mean my baby is Danish because she's born here, or that "my baby" that is my man is Danish. Both are true, aren't I clever? hahaha!)
