Your new team made 37 points in a single day. I fear you.

| In hindsight, not starting Ronaldo when he's playing against North Korea is pretty dumb. |

| It's not fair when Messi has dominated the past two games for a grand total of 12 points. That's fuckin bullshit! |

i got a footy question.....if a player got a yellow card in the round robin and then another yellow card in the round of 16 does that mean he gets a red and is out of that game...plus out for the next game? or is it a clean slate for the round of 16?
thanks!

| You never get sent out of a game for getting a second yellow (if they aren't from the same game), but I don't the answer about whether cards are wiped clean after the first round. |

Finaly some points. Good for me that Argentina didn't concede a goal AND Demichelis scored one.
All yellow cards are wiped clean after the quarter finals. During the last world cup it was after the group stage. With that change of rules the FIFA wants to prevent that a player misses the final because of a second yellow in the semis. Like Ballack did in 2002. |

Feeling good about my strategy and selections so far for the knockout rounds. I think I'm getting a good balance. A lot of ground to make up still. Round 3 was stingy on points

| I don't really understand the transfers. Should I drop players who are now out before the Round 3 ends? |

If I'm correct, you have unlimited free transfers before the 1/8ths.

yes, you can. but once dropped you can't pick up those same guys again.... i really like this pool...i was never to fond of ronny mcdonald and his buddies but i'm starting to come around...
i'm looking forward to the US game.. they've had some exciting games and i've loaded up on their players....
anyone have a vu vu zella? i was partying with a co-worker last night who is from south africa and he doesn;t have one...i was pretty disappointed.

I think so. I've kept a couple of eliminated players on my squad. Will see when the deadline hits later today if it's ok.

Yep - I have the exact same dilemma, but with David Villa of Spain.
Maybe if you change your formation to 4-3-3 to accommodate and extra striker?

| I already have 3 strikers. I would have to bench Messi to play Ronaldo. I'm thinking I'll keep him on the bench (because of Spain) but I got burned last round by doing that. |

gah, the Fuman beat me by one point. I'm not going for the negative points transfer - only got one player on the bench having made my frees.

I paid 18 negative points on transfers but picked up 64 on today's semi. Guess it was worth it. Tomorrow will be Germany's night (got six players on the field) or I'm the fool that left David Villa on the bench.

I don't expect you to believe me but I would've won if I had been at home this weekend. Had no access to a computer so I couldn't do my subs between Saturday and Sunday's game.
