I'm doing some hearty laughs at the Boateng picture and the Big Per caption. Sehr gut, OP.

My prediction was going to be that Italy will end us in the semis, but it turns out they would have to come second in their group for that, and Uruguay's got that on lock. So I don't know.

The thing is, I can't really think of any situations where a player takes a hand/elbow/foot to the face and doesn't go down, even if it's as soft as yesterday. Even that little unexpected contact is enough to make you stop playing, and if you're gonna stop playing why not have a little sit down too? If nothing else had happened no one would be talking about that situation at all, but Pepe is a goshdarn psychopath rear end in a top hat, so...

Well, I aged about 10 years during the game, last 30 minutes especially. Good thing today only has garbage teams playing so I can relax and recover.

Bench Khedira IMO. I don't know what to do about Lahm, I just don't know. Him being bad is a thing that's not supposed to happen. I also don't know about starting Klose, I guess I'd like it to happen but I'm not sure he's up for it.

Yes, my point was that I was wondering what the injury was since it actually cost us a goal.

Something about his hip/rear end/thigh muscles locking up during half time. Could hardly get up off the locker room bench according to Löw.

Na super, Deutschland kriegt das Freilos im Achtelfinale.

We got that Freilos when the groups were drawn. Group H was scandalously poo poo, and it wouldn't be any more dangerous if we had gotten Belgium. They struggled against two of the three worst teams in the tournament (Honduras is probably the worst) and also struggled against a kind of bad team (Algeria). Yes, 9 points, bla bla, but I think I'll put money on them losing to Oh Wait I Just Remembered My Grandpa Was Technically A US Citizen Men's National Team.

I want to kiss Neuer on his filthy disease-ridden Schalke lips. I predict that I will also want to drink myself to death during and after the France game. This was not a good game at all. What the gently caress was up with those millions of misplaced passes?

In every game, there are actually two teams on the field, which most Germans continuously fail to realize!

Yes I know, but after one half of passing straight to the feet of Algerians who were admittedly pressing very well you'd think the German players would realize that their dumbass artistic through pass attempts only create a lot of counters and not much else. I don't know. Maybe they couldn't have done much else but it was really frustrating to watch.

I'm really hype. It's going to be one for the ages for sure, either way. Hopefully we'll see the Turniermannschaft finally turn up tomorrow.

I'm not terribly hype about sitting on a train to Munich until 17:00. I booked that during the group stages and didn't look at who might be playing, and if die Bahn makes me miss a single second of the match or, hell, the anthems, I will do a terrorism

Any chance Germany bring on Thomas Hitzelsperger for the final? I think he could tear it up in midfield, chase Messi around, really get in him, make sure there are no prolapses in concentration, and spread panic among the Argentines
