1. Yes...cheer for Spain if you watch soccer for flopping. The kings of Europe when it comes to flopping and writhing on the ground. Even Robben is disgusted by Spain's propensity to flop (and I say that as a die hard Bayern fan).

2. Yes...cheer for Mexico, Costa Roca, Panama, and Honduras. The four teams that conspired to keep the US out of the cup on the last day of qualifying. I may still slightly cheer for three of the four, but I'll be deep in the cold ground before I ever even slightly cheer for El Tri.

3. Argentina and Brazil? Please. You nailed it...awful fans.

4. Iceland - yes. Should be everyone's second favorite team. Great story here. Cheer for these guys.

5. Asia and Africa? Sure. No harm in cheering for these guys.

6. Cheer for Poland. And smaller European countries. Fine.

7. Italy and France? Worst of Europe outside Spain. Never cheer for these guys.

8. England and Portugal? Okay...don't like CR but he is amazing.

9. Russia? Meh...they won't do anything.

10. Germany. The world champs. The San Antonio spurs of soccer. Excellent team ball. Tactical. Strategic. No super heroes. No Ronaldo's, Neymar's or Messi's. Just skill at every position. The game the way it should be played.

Germany repeat!!
