Bermuda Bowl chit chat

While I understand the sentiment, the use of "One Time" in poker (or, I should say, the overuse) gets real old real fast.

 

Having said that, ONE TIME!

 

Should be a great match.

Haha, I said "one time" to weindog, and he's like I think you've used up your one time a few times in your life. WHATEVER, ONE TIME.

 

I don't think u ever used the word ONE TIME for BB final match before, others doesnt count for BB final :P

I know why the rule was instituted, but I always want the best 2 teams available (I'm for the Monaco team, but that's just my opinion). If it happens to be USA teams, so be it. That's why I suggested ONLY when USA teams finish 1st and 2nd or 1st and 3rd in the Round Robin should it be allowed. Then it's highly likely they are in fact the two best teams in the BB, so we should allow the game and not politics to determine that. At times it seems that global politics is anti-US; I know for a fact FIFA is against us.

 

@JLOGIC I had little idea that the home country/city had to put up so much money in order to host the BB, that makes sense then why China has it a lot. D'Orsi might have had some influence in the multiple times in Brazil as well.

 

Without commenting on any of the rest of your posts, why do you think that if USA finished 1-3 in the RR, they would be the two best teams?

The USA-teams-must-play-in-the-semis rule cuts both ways: It assures a US team in the finals. Without the rule, that might not happen, and I would think that the mroe cmpetitive the other teams become, the less they would like the rule.

 

Most extremely exceedingly rude to quote my own comment, but: The evidence suggests to me that, PERHAPS, Netherlands and Italy deserved the honor of competing in the final match. Because of the rule, we'll never know, now, will we?

 

Regards and Happy Trails,
