THERE we are, Cap-i-tan Bejnood! Now there's a bet!
Top 8. Quarterfinals. Iran. That means they have to win one knockout game. Assuming a second-place finish in their group, that means they'll meet either Argentina or Holland. I'll take your bet.
The US has an equally unlikely route. If they advance to the quarterfinals, they will have in a ...[text shortened]... recorded America's greatest victory in history. They'll most probably have beaten Brazil.
I suppose I'm the only one here who wants Iran to win. That explains why no one has agreed with me yet.
Ah well, I'm a proud Iranian American.
