I used a site just now after finding out about it. The US drew Argentina, Russia and Italy on my first try, so I burned my laptop, got a new one and tried again.

The US got Switzerland (yay), Chile and France (assumed playoff winner), so that was a tad better.

A Belgium-Holland World Cup match would be great to watch.

With Ecuador also being in that group, that would probably be the Group of Death imo.

Either way USA looks like they could be fricked. Maybe I'm wrong but this could be the toughest World Cup in a while.

Us and Japan are most likely going to get fricked and end up in the group of death, bc we get put in the pot with all of the Concacaf and Asian pushovers

Happened in 1998. 0-0 tie with an elbow to the face at the end.

We have "been fricked" every WC since 1990 because we've never been a seed so we get placed in pot 2 which means you get a seed and a possible UEFA power (France, Portugal, Netherlands, England, Italy) from Pot 4 in your group.

The fact that France, Portugal, Italy, Netherlands and England will all be non-seeds makes for likely 3 groups of death and possibly more.

Germany,

Ivory Coast
Netherlands

As was said before, there's almost no way to get a favorable draw being in pot 2.

Seems this simulator has the "frick the USA hard" code built into it. Pretty accurate if you ask me

Why is Russia the UEFA team in pot 3?
I realize that there are too many for Pot 4, but is that a final decision that its Russia or just an example that the site is using?
