This really has nothing to do with photography... or maybe it does? :)
While the love of photography has brought us all together as an artistic family, maybe it's time to stir up some friendly competition amongst us.
So who is everyone cheering on for the next month during 2010 FIFA World Cup?
(Bring on the photos of you cheering on your team!)
I myself will be proudly cheering on England!
I've been eagerly awaiting the start of World Cup since the premier league ended a few months ago and Manchester United didn't take it this year.
We were robbed 4 years ago in our game against Portugal. But I think we're back this year, stronger than ever.
I'm with Katie here. Will watch if we get a long way in (as in, if we could win), but until then, I'll be supporting England without watching, waving flags or wearing the colours.
EN-GER-LAND etc :) I have no interest in club football but when the time comes for Le World Cup (or the Euros) I'm all about it. Me and a few (well, 51) mates are doing a tournament sweepstake-esque thing going so I've a huge interest and am planning to watch every game...
I'm not a fan of the world cup...that along with Big Brother sort of rob us of decent TV for a few weeks (I don't have the concentration to watch a whole match :P) But if I had to vote for someone, it would be England :]
AYOBA AYOBA... GO BAFANA BAFANA it is in South africa thus I will fote and support my country... Us agains Mexico 1 all.... well lets see what happens :=)
South Africa were robbed, Helena. So unlucky with the final chance hitting the post. They should've won (and not just because I predicted them a 2-1 win in my sweepstake)
Well, it's been a good year for football so far, with Norwich City being League One Champions, and being promoted back to the Championship... Let's hope that England can find success in the World Cup as well!
I'm not bothered by football but it doesn't offend me, therefore I will be at the England matches with my camera. There's good money to be made from documenting this sort of thing, get out there and seize the opportunity all of you!
Coming from a rugby fan ... WAKA WAKA, AYOBA, VIVA BAFANA BAFANA !!! haha, i guess i'm supporting SOUTH AFRICA and yeah, the Mother City is rocking with the sound of vuvuzela's (heeeelp us puleeeez !) :)
Englands year i feel it !! even after a slow start against USA ..." who by the way thought they were playing basketball last night "..4 deliberate handballs in one game come on !! Lucky lucky USA scrappy goal ...lol...
Yes England, I am not a great fan of football but when England play, something happens to England that reminds me of how my Mother talked about the war and how everyone would stick together!
I went to the Italy-Paraguay game last night. I've loaded a picture from my cell phone, at kick-off. Tonight I will load more pictures from last night!
It's the most wonderful experience to meet and see all the fans who have arrived to support their teams. They all ROCK!
England all the way - except we need to do a lot better (and get rid of Heskey) if we want to get there!!
I agree Carol Ann there is a great sense of patriotism during the world cup - Love it!!
England my second fav, first is anyone who plays against Them :))) Just kidding, BRAZIL all the way! then England ;)
I hate Vuvuzela by the way. It's ruined the world Cup for me :(
Radio 5Live had a micky take song on last night - Rihanna's Umbrella in which alternative lyrics were sang... Included this line (now sing it along to the song)..
Think I'd better call, Nelson Mandela,
See if he can buy me a vuvuzela, ela ela ela...
Im supporting England while living in USA. However, England team are making me feel ashamed to be English! I may even start rooting for Argentina instead they certainly have a better chance and are more fun to watch. England are playing like school boys! No aggression, no tactics, as if they never met each other and are all playing different games! Don't get me started! Grrr! hope they prove me wrong soon and get it together!

We should tag our photos "2010 World Cup"!
Tomorrow Brazil plays against North Korea. The whole country is dressed in Greens and Yellows!

Great game between NZ & Slovakia - Nice one NZ!!
What a complete and utter joke. It's an article like that, that makes me ashamed to be a Journalism grad.

Well... made me laugh...
I agree - I hate the vuvuzelas as well... :(
And here's an article on how to deal with the vuvuzelas:
