Thank you for starting this, it's going to be fun.

I know the game times, but does anyone know what channels it will be on here in Korea. Any chance at someone making an ultimate schedule with the channels?

Yes, I'm lazy.

Cool, I'll give it a shot.

I've been slumping a bit in my fantasy baseball, so I'll see how this goes.

The Ireland has carried out his duties but I'm not feeling too confident about some of the scores I picked. I'm gonna have to keep and eye out for the friendlies this weekend and perhaps change some scores.

I'm all set. All my choices are based on gut feelings, and of course, what I want to happen. Don't know much about international soccer.

Clever economists pick Brazil to win the World Cup
By Brian Phillips

Statistics are the refuge of prophecy, and in the run-up to the World Cup, a number of financial analysts have rolled out predictions for the tournament based on complex mathematical formulas designed to assess each nation's relative strength. Tracy Alloway at the Financial Times has been keeping a record of these predictions, and they make for fascinating reading, particularly if you can make sense of snarls of math like this:

ΔGoals = 0.18*ΔGDP/capita of US + 0.19*ΔPop (100mill.) - 0.02*ΔPop2 (100mill.) + 0.05*ΔWC Participations + 0.17*ΔBallon d'or nominee - 0.01*ΔFIFA ranking + 1.12*ΔHost - 0.85*ΔAsia/Oceanic/North America



The rest isn't as entertaining, but here's the link:
