El Mundial- Take 3
Well, Los Octavos de Finales are over and I only had one wrong pick. Granted, that one wrong pick was La Furia EspaƱola, who were absolutely pants to borrow from the English. The first half was brilliant, the PK deserved- then they coasted while France gave a clinic on counterattacking and the like.
Oh well, at least I'm winning the pool! Detailed tables below, taking into account the first two rounds of play. Picks for are due for the next round by Friday @ 10a CST. Oh, and Sarah, drop me an IM or something, I think you're due more points but I'm not sure.
And now for your updated tables

| Underdog | 288 |
| Alphasarah | 228 |
| Ines | 120 |
Right, but how do I get these magical numbers?
By looking at the number of correct picks made and awarding the appropriate number of points.
How does this look for each player?
Funny you should ask...
First number is correct picks, second number is points awarded for that round.
Make sense?

Based on Brazil's play yesterday...
Quarterfinals
Germany vs. Argentina = Argentina
Italy vs. Ukraine = Italy
England vs. Portugal = England
Brazil vs. France = Brazil
Semis
Argentina vs. Italy = Argentina
England vs. Brazil = England
Finals
Argentina vs. England = Argentina
QFs
Germany over Argentina (can't avoid it anymore - these guys are pretty good)
Italy over Ukraine (even without Nesta, they're too much for Shevchenko+10)
Portugal over England (do I think England has the better players? Yes. Do I think Porgutal will play tenatively with 2 suspended and everyone and their kid sister on a yellow card? Yes. I don't care - I'm setting up the Brazil/Porgual grudge match)
Brazil over France (win over Spain was a fluke)
Semis
Germany over Italy
Brazil over Portugal
Finals
Brazil over Germany
