I'm currently eliminated from the blocktrades@blocktrades world cup but that doesn't mean I can't make predictions! Good luck to all who are still involved!

(And thank you for worldcup-russia@worldcup-russia for hosting and all the sponsors who were involved!)

On a quick side note: it is funny how much a scoring system dictates success in World Cup betting. I'm in a straight pick em pool with some friends and family and had 10 of the first 11 games picked, was performing decently overall but fell out of contention with Belgium and England losing last round. My blocktrades@blocktrades picks never went particularly well and I've been close to the bottom the entire time. Not complaining... just wished I had done better!

2FrancevsCroatia1
2BelgiumvsEngland1

I'm sticking with my original choices of France and Belgium (though I had imagined the games would be reversed) and suspect one of the two games will finish regular time at 1-1 and go to PKs...

Anyway, do you have any thoughts on the remaining two games?

Also, what does everyone think about Ronaldo to Juventus? I figure Ronaldo is Ronaldo... I could be playing midfield (eek) and he still would be in contention for a slew of awards. Sometime you just need to switch things up.

Thanks for reading!
