Re: If Florida was a country it would rank 17th in the world economically

Mostly thanks to Miami. Take away Disney and Orlando is Southern Alabama. Even Riverside has a larger economy than Orlando. :lol: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._metropolitan_areas_by_GDP#Real_GDP_for_the_top_50_metropolitan_statistical_areas_(Millions_of_dollars" onclick="windo...

Re: 2018 World Cup Thread + Predictions Game

Country with half the population of NYC making the final doesn't happen too often. This is the best shot for Croatia's golden generation and who knows when they'll field a team this great again. At least Mbappe getting that World Cup title out of the way at age 19 means we won't have a superstar pla...

Re: Wimbledon Thread

Seeing Anderson wounded and with nothing left in the tank only makes Rafa's loss more painful. He lost the real final yesterday and worse, Novak is going to make his life very difficult moving forward. The last time Rafa beat Djokovic off a clay court was the 2013 US Open. If it's going to happen a...

FINAL: 4-2 France Major tournament finals tend to be cautious and conservative, but this one had a hell of a lot going on. Valiant effort from Croatia after all the extra time minutes they played coming into this game, but France was too much. Even with the World Cup defending champions' curse in m...

France less than 10 minutes away from winning a World Cup without their starting CF scoring a single goal this tournament.

4-1 as Mbappe gets on the board. France might score a touchdown and extra point on them before it’s over.

Re: 2018 World Cup Thread + Predictions Game

3-1 France. Pogba starts and finishes the break. France haven’t had much of the ball but they’ve been lightning efficient on these counters. Could get ugly soon with a tired Croatia team desperately having to push forward for a couple goals.

lolol a couple of idiots ran onto the field. Can’t remember last time that happened in a World Cup final. Got some nerve to pitch-invade in Russia of all places.

Re: 2018 World Cup Thread + Predictions Game

Croatia winning possession 61-39 and shots 7-1, but getting punished for some unfortunate mistakes (and a possible Griezmann dive that led to the first free kick). Still an entire half to turn things around.

2-1 France on a handball penalty. Now Croatia has to fight back from an own goal and a PK.

Make that #13. Djoker is officially back. The big three splitting the first three slams of the year should make for a very interesting US Open. :pop2:

Perisic makes it 1-1! This game already has more goals than the last two finals.

Re: 2018 World Cup Thread + Predictions Game

1-0 France. Tough break for Croatia and Mandzukic on the deflection. Get the bulk of possession early on, only for France to sneak in the first on a set piece.

Re: 2018 World Cup Thread + Predictions Game

Wow, just looked at the golden boot standings and realized that if Mbappe or Griezmann don't put up a hat trick today, Harry Kane would win the award for basically stat-padding against Panama and Tunisia. :shock: Should be a nice battle in the midfield between Pogba-Kante and Modric-Rakitic, but fin...

I would love to see the religious freak make it to the big leagues. That would piss off many people. This unathletic man playing a professional sport. :lol: :lol: :suds: He's always been a gifted athlete.

Re: Wimbledon Thread

Djokovic takes Set 1 in 29 minutes and already up a break and a hold in the second. He probably wants to wrap this up before the start of the World Cup final. Anderson looks toast.

Re: 2018 World Cup Thread + Predictions Game

Pretty much a meaningless third-place game, but Belgium outclassing England for the second time this tournament. Final-worthy team that ran into France once round earlier than they would have liked. On to tomorrow's final.
