Knockout Round

My sincerely apologies to my dedicated readers who anxiously await new predictions each day (haha..yeah right), been busy lately and this just haven't been at the top of my priority list (sports not as one of Wesley's priority? lol). Anyways, for the past few match days, I've been hovering around the .500 mark also, with a couple of correct scores (ex. France 2 - 0 Togo, ).

Now is the time for the sweet 16 (stolen from the NCAA =D). The most intriguing matchup looks to be the Portugal vs. Holland match on Sunday, with Spain vs. France next Thursday not far behind. So here are my predictions for the 8 matches.

Germany 3 - 1 Sweden
Argentina 2 - 1 Mexico
England 2 - 0 Ecuador
Portugal 1 - 0 Holland
Italy 3 - 1 Australia
Ukraine 1 - 0 Switzerland
Brazil 3 - 0 Ghana
Spain 2 - 1 France

Next world cup update will be next Friday after the completion of the sweet 16.

The Sports world
But thats not all for sports. A HUGE week coming up in the world of sports. NHL draft tomorrow morning, and Wednesday the NBA draft will take place. Also, a huge trade was just annouced seeing T. Bertuzzi going to Florida along with A. Auld and another player for R. Luongo. Also rumours are floating around that C. Pronger wants out of Edmonton. More thoughts on these and more this weekend, along with another rant about the Leafs management, or should I say mis-management of the Leafs.
In the mean time, I'm extremely excited for this weekend.

TTOW!
