This is hot.



Gah we need to organize a brackets picking competition! Maybe when it gets down to the final 16? Or is there a website where you can do something like this already?

No European country has ever won on the American continent, due to climate conditions, home crowd disadvantages etc. This is why Brazil and Argentina are the top two favourites.


In sports, past events have no effect on future results. Had 2010 been anywhere in the world Spain still would have won.

Deutschland will win. I have so much confidence I have already booked my ticket to watch the game live in Berlin. The after party and hangover will be epic.

I did not just provide that statistic, I also mentioned several reasons for the excistence of that particular statistic. Next to that, there is a strong significant statistical relation between past and future events in sports. This is the most important factor bookmakers use to assess the chance of a certain outcome. Aside from the spread between chances and odds, if statistics of past sport events did not matter, predicted chances and thereby odds would be false and no bookmaker would still be in business.

Therefore, logic dictates that Germany is not a favourite, despite of your "feelings of confidence".

Someone forgot to tell the Riddler that sports is about emotions, not statistics.
Germany has one of the strongest squads, hell I'd call them a favourite, depsite what your odds and logic dictates.

If one wants to make the best prediction about the winner of the World Cup, statistics are always preferred over emotion of a single individual. Why?

1. Emotion is more volatile;
2. Emotion is more likely to be influenced by irrelevant factors;
3. No individual has full knowledge of the relevant factors;
4. No individual has the capability to weigh in the relevant factors;
5. Etc, etc.

However, if the "emotion" of a significant amount of people is combined, you will see that the spread between a statistical prediction and the "prediction of the mass" will decrease.

Furthermore, an event such as the World Cup is no longer about emotion, but about financial interests.

They are not the favorites, strong team, but flew Royce, they have problems with offense and defense.
