a comment on facebook i got...

"there's this theory. take 3964 and subtract away the world cup year eg 2010 = 1954. the winners of the world cup 1954 would be the winners of world cup 2010 which is like germany LOL. try it for every world cup year its true except for 1998 and 2006"

FFUUUU

Red card to Harry Kewell and Ghana scores from a penalty 1-1

Damn I was hoping that the Aussies would win. Brilliant final phase though imo. Too bad it was a 1-1 in the end.

Still, Kewell is kewl.

Kewell is my idol.

What I could only do now is to wish him a healthy body. Live healthy.

Awesome goal by Eto'o! Very nice. He is so happy What a mistake by Danmark.

10th minute, sub-10 xD

 

[Yes We Can!]

1-1 Niklas Bendtner 33rd minute.

Better Simon?

No, you're getting confused Cornelius. For any other tens, it's "rd" (so 13rd and 23rd) but for the thirties it's 33th or 133th, for example. The English language is strange.

What a mistake by Danmark.

What a mistake by Cornelius?! Seriously man, shape up! First the 53rd then Denmark, now 33th... Get your life back together!

Ehm... So? As far as I recognized it, he was speaking in english. (Plus I highly doubt that he knew it was Danmark in danish. )

Z0MG CYBERBULLYING!!!

Spoiler

Self:fp

Oliver: Why should I? Didn't you plan to end it soon anyway?

 

[Yes We Can!]

I won't be bothered to write the name of the player (sigh) but Denmark did the 2-1 in the 61st minute.

Also, I encourage all teams to not score goals in any "3rd" minutes

 

[MTGjumper]

Woo, Danmerk!

What?...

Thirtythirth?

 

[Robert-Y]

I thought the only "special" cases were 11th, 12th and 13th...

I thought with any number ending in 1, 2 or 3, the suffixes are "st", "nd" and "rd" respectively except for the above and the rest are simply "th"?

 

[04mucklowd]

I think the ways to remember it is to just think of the the way the number sounds

 

[Yes We Can!]

I thought it was the same as Mucklow says.

 

[MTGjumper]

Rob, I was only trying to confuse Cornelius

Cameroon are the first casualty of the World Cup. Entertaining game, though.

 

[Robert-Y]

Yeah it was a pretty good game

...and I thought you were joking but I wasn't certain enough...

Now all that we need to get to the next stage is for Ghana to beat Germany, and Australia to beat Serbia :rolleyes:
