What's the severity of Di Maria? Is it serious? That would play a key factor coming into that game. If Di maria is out. Messi will get all the attention, besides Higuain, there really isn't much else as far as talented players of the caliber of Messi, Di Maria and Higuain. 

 

I honestly don't know how this will turn out, but I have a feeling the local teams may get a boost and make it a local final. 

 

I rather see Germans vs Argentina. I don't want to see the dutch win. Yes, I am still salty about that crap Robben pulled. Honestly if Germany or Argentina wins, I would be happy, even if Brazil does too. 

 

At least with the Germans, if they win. You can get a free BJ from a pornstar. lol

Di Maria is out for the rest of the World Cup -- muscle tear. He's Argentina's second best player and feeds Messi the ball quite well (although having a lackluster performance against Switzerland). I think that'll be the deciding factor against Holland in my opinion. Contrary to popular belief, Messi was never carrying Argentina... BUT he will now. Di Maria is a month removed from being named Man of the Match at the UEFA Champions League Final. His loss was massive for Argentina.

 

 

Just what I feared. Ugh.. Holland is going to the finals. I hate them so much but I know they have the best 'healthy' team right now. Brazil without Neymar is not going to beat Germany. Germany is the other great team that will go through. This means its a Dutch vs Germany Final. 

 

Argentina will not be able to handle Robben, Van Persie and Snjieder. Unless someone steps up and takes on Di Marias role. I don't see it happening. Or unless Messi goes beast mode and just balls out against Holland.

Call me crazy, but I think Brazil beat Germany to reach the final.  I think the Neymar injury strangely helps the team by reliving some of the crushing pressure to win the cup on home soil plus gives the team something to rally behind. 

 

The Silva suspension hurts a lot, but the German back 4 hasnt looked too good itself.  Either way, the atmosphere should be outrageous and entertaining as hell to watch

      I was playing around with the ESPN playoff predictor and it shows if 49ers and Rams finish with same record, the Rams hold the tiebreaker.

      This is my thinking as well. Seattle played as good as they could on defense and Panthers still had a chance until those back to back turnovers.  I don't think the Rams played particularly well in their game against us, alot things went our way in order to win.  Someone pointed out the Rams were bad on the east coast road games and Seattle has been the better road team but they just fought a hard contested game against the Panthers, and now they travel to San Fran this week for their biggest game of the season to determine the division and if they are the overall #1 seed in the NFC or will be traveling for the Wildcard weekend.  If they lose they then travel back cross the country to play a team they've just beaten two weeks ago, not saying they won't be favored against the Panthers but the energy of hosting our first playoff game in 10 years along with the get back effect of having just lost to this team could be huge.
