World cup fever

The wait is over...  Its world cup again..

Can't forget the last cup.  The only one we enjoyed from our hostel.   It was fun to be there at that time.

Fighting each other predicting the results, innovative demo ideas, thorough analysis of each and every moment of every match.
Disappointed some times, felt good some times. 

Majority of hostelites were Argentina fans..  And we formed an anti-Argentina grp.  Not coz that we didn't like 'em.  If everybody liked one team, there is no fun watching a match.. :)

And we gathered together ppl who even haven't watched football yet.  

Guy1:  I was a hard core Arg fan.  Guy X has made me anti-arg.
Guy2: Ok, which color is Arg??   Who's the other team? 
Guy3: Am I supposed to clap when the reds score or the blues score??
Guy4: And I thought that was a sixer.. Errr...  a goal.

Then there were fans..

I wasn't a hardcore fan of any team...  My strategy was to have some 5-6 teams in my list and whoever doesn't progress to the next stage were eliminated from my fav list too.. :)

Got confused when Eng and Brazil met each other.  But Brazil won.  So I didn't like Eng from then onwards.  Thts how it works.

And who'll take the cup this time?   Brazil? Germany?  England?  Argentina? Or someone else??? 

I'm happy as long as all the big teams reach the quarters and semis..

Will surely miss last time's env this year.  :(

Around a week to go....

My todo list:
1. Buy a TV
2. Ensure that cable operator provides ESPN n STAR.
