World Cup Pool Points Totals

Since the 3rd place game was an official game, I decided points for that game had to count. But then, it seemed absured that Spain winning the final was worth less points than Germany winning 3rd place. So doubled the points for the final winner (those who held Spain got 20 rather than 10 points). Here's the final point totals.

World Cup Picks

HINTS: Nani is out for Portugal (collarbone). Drogba is out with broken arm for Ivory Coast. Ballack is out for Germany. Mikel is out for Nigeria. Essien is out for Ghana. Ferdinand for England is out with bad knee. Pirlo for Italy will miss half tourney. Suazo for Chile will probably miss half the tourney. Robben for Holland, too. Iniesta and Torres for Spain have barely played and their country has struggled to score without them. Same for Bendtner and Denmark, who've lost without him. Some weaker teams still have a great chance to score points against even weaker teams: Honduras plays Switzerland, Slovakia plays New Zealand, Algeria plays Slovenia, et cetera.
