Well a lot of things can happen, when you're walking down the street, and it never fails to amaze me, the people that I meet. They all say "See you later" and I just answer "How? How will you see me later, when you can't see me now?" - Kevin Ayers, The Confessions of Dr. Dream & Other Stories (1974)

Sigma, I had COMPLETELY forgotten about that. None of my guys could score and then a guy like Pesch gets red carded and suddenly I was in negative points. It was fun though.

I feel like making predictions is bad karma, so I probably won't take part in this, but it's a good idea Mimglow. Attendance guesses are always good times at home games too.

cheers,

The secret of life is to find moments of levity and grace in what is, ultimately, a tragedy. Watching Canadian soccer is good practice for this.

Dasovic I can understand (after all, I picked him as well :) ), but you're right, I'm curious as to why everyone else is picking on Torsten Frings.

Alright, the results have been posted on the Website!

PaulV is our all-time leader! Granted, it was the first edition of this new Voyageur pool.

Woo hoo! I was cursing the television when the Germans got their fourth goal, as it ruined my 3-1 prediction, but I guess I pulled through anyway. I'd like to thank the Academy and plain dumb luck for my victory.

Thanks for running the contest; I look forward to the Gold Cup sequel.

And damn you Torsten Frings, for not getting that yellow card! ;)

Paul
