Love That Confidence

North Korea's coaches and players believe they're going to get out of their group at the World Cup. Oh, yeah. That group includes Brazil, Portugal and Ivory Coast.

I appreciate confidence, especially in sports. Upsets happen all the time. And in soccer, one hot goaltender and one fluke deflection could make the upset of the century.

From the story:

'To finish in the top two of a first round Group G that also features Brazil, Portugal and Ivory Coast would be an even more impressive feat, said striker Jong Tae-se.

"Brazil will be first and we will win second place," said the Kawasaki Frontale forward, one of the few players in the squad who is a known quantity.'

Good. Good. Good.
