hj_hawk_60 Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 Who's your pick to win the world cup?I'd have to say Spain or Brazil
bullets13 Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 I'd have to say those are the two safest picks.
dualdellortos Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 No. There are many countries in the World Cup that are safer than Brazil.........
BrenhamFan Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 I'm going for Germany and the US... I see Brazil, Germany or Italy winning though.
7Sammy7-Jags Posted May 15, 2010 Report Posted May 15, 2010 I know it might be long shot but I seriously have faith that Mexico will triumph and come out holding the trophy
