Obviously, I don't care anymore, but I'll go with Germany and France.

I still don't care, but I'll go with Italy in the final. However, my Hognosticating performance has dropped off considerably since the first round. Much like the competition itself, actually...

And I'll go with Germany for the third place playoff.

I'll take France. Shall the loser of our bet buy the winner a drink, UK?

I ended up bowing out because I forgot to post hognositications for the final 2 games... Unfortunately, I would have got those two correct! Otherwise, I had a very dismal showing in my picks for the World Cup. I should stick with my crystal ball...

Your maths looks spot on to me RiC! I think I got over the line more or less by quantity of predictions rather than quality, but I'll take any win.

Thanks for doing the hard work of counting everything up.

I have a personal impression that this year,s NFL Hognostications might be 'far' better organised and managed. Just a hunch. :idea:

Hey, but we are ever so thankful for he who blazed a trail for the rest of us. Year one of the hognostications was pretty magical. =D>
