England is looking good, but then again, Senegal is looking good. Naturally, I'll go with England.
@Rikki Gins I'm going to make a bold prediction and say Senegal wins 3-2 in extra time.
I've had that look before but it wasn't from me praying to God.
Remember, @ShayP. God sees all.
If nothing else, at least we're allowed to go back to pronouncing Qatar kuh-TAR, the way it used to be before the stupid people started insisting it was ''cutter'' or ''gutter''.
You think that's bad? On the other side of Puget Sound, west of Seattle, is a town whose name is spelled "Sequim." I've been pronouncing it as "SEE-kwe-um" since I learned about it. But during a recent trip there, I found that the locals pronounce it "Skwim." I asked numerous people about this, and they all said basically the same thing: "I dunno, that's just the way that its always been pronounced."
I grew up in Washington State. They're all mostly Indian names, but of different tribes. Many weren't spelled quite right in translation from the beginning.
