Who Wins The World Cup?

[soccer10k]

On the eve (well, morning of) the World Cup, this poll seems appropriate. I only included the top contenders. If you pick another team, please specify. I'll probably start another poll after the group stage is over.

I said Netherlands because my dad is from there. And it's my duty as an American to skew the poll numbers by giving an uninformed opinion about a topic I don't care about.

I voted for Brazil but watch out for Germany. It's always very tough to beat the home team.

I'll pin my colours to the Spanish mast until they get embarrassingly eliminated.

I'd love to see some old fashion rioting. Probably the only way I'd watch.

I don't know a lot about World Cup but isn't it true that few (if any) teams from the western hemisphere have won the cup in Europe (and vice versa)?

 

It will be interesting to see how much the scandal affects the Italian team.

Yes. Brazil won in Sweden in 1958 and in Korea/Japan in 2002. But for the most part you are correct.

I would choose Czech Republic, but since that isn't an option, I'm gonna have to go with England.

 

COME ON ENGLAND!

My bad. I'll start a better poll, with all the teams, once we get to the elimination stage of the tournament.

Same reason I picked USA.
