early World Cup betting!

okay, so this is what we're currently looking at for the first few games:



i'm very interested in the first game. tempted to bet on SA - they're not that good, but host teams tend to overachieve, right? although SA is weak against speed, and you KNOW Mexico's gonna be pulling some speedy gonzalez shit on the field. also Mexican spirit is at an all-time high (i'm guessing you guys have seen that machete trailer)

i'm guessing something must've happened in the friendlies or something, as Mexico's odds became slightly longer (as of two days ago Mexico was 13/8, as opposed to the current 14/8).

as for the second game, i've been advised (by a parisian, no less) to bet on a draw. what a pussy

i'm no expert at this, but i'd love to hear any thoughts. also, full odds are available here: http://www.oddschecker.com/football/...nals/world-cup

I'm hoping the US-England match delivers. England all the way.

How'd you get 66/1 on Spain? I wanted to make a bet on them winning it all but all I've got is +450 as they're the favorite now and that's not worth it imo.
