Thread: what do you think of the 2010 world cup predictions and statistics?

What do you think of this; statistics show that the host nations always made it to the next round, but this year south Africa didn't. and statistics also show that no one has ever won after losing the opening match (Spain) but here they are in the quarterfinals, yeah i know they haven't won yet or they might not even win, but what do you think of all these predictions rankings and statistics?

well those were wrong. but i hope the prediction that seemingly everyone's made about germany beating argentina is WRONG. and i also the prediction about germany winning the world cup is wrong too. i'm worried cuz i predicted Germany winning the world cup as well and i have been dead right about my other predictions in this year's world cup. so I really really hope that i'm wrong.
