He said that because Germany were favorites, they got the extra day in the schedule and far less travel, including NOT having to play in the sauna that was Manaus.

Fifa stacked the cards against the U.S. so the group favorites could easily advance from our group. Went on to say we will be playing on 1 days less rest, had to travel further, and play in worse conditions.
He was flat out honest with the reporter when she asked how he felt about playing Germany. It was pretty funny when he said it because they were kind of like .... OH!

I thought it was randomly drawn from the balls at the World Cup Draw the # drawn with the ball determined the schedule

I didn't say they did... It's what he said. I thought it was funny when he said it.

I know they seed the top 8 teams to keep them away from each other, but it is hard to believe in the complete randomness of the process when it always seems to come out just so. Like what are the chances that Ghana and USA should be in the same group again this go round?

Nothing with FIFA is "random"

Klinsi has shaken the haters off with these first two games.

Jurgen is the fricking man.
He clearly believes in his team and has a complete absence of fricks to give.

I still think he is better suited as a technical director. He has visions for the future and can recruit dual national players. He is great within the organization, but he needs Low like he had in Germany as his right hand man.

I will say one thing for the schedule. Looking at the map of the stadiums AND knowing what a weather nightmare Manaus would be, it is very odd to me that FIFA would not have scheduled the Manaus game for Saturday, especially when it became obvious it was going to have to be played at night and let the teams that had technically less travel to do play a day short.
This being said, USA was travelling back and forth from Sao Paolo so they were already giving themselves extra travel. I have no idea where the other Group G teams have been based. Given the location of the stadiums, I am surprised that USA chose to be based so far away in Sao Paolo.
"Many of Brazil's World Cup stadiums have fallen behind schedule in their construction, but there is one building project that will be so efficient that you can set your watch to it: the Germans will be building their own hotel and training complex specifically for the tournament.
The DFB (German football association) may have been inspired by the plight of the England National Team, who have chosen the Rio de Janeiro's Royal Tulip hotel as their base for the tournament. While it offers spectacular views of the Copacabana, it is described as "mouldy" and "dirty" on Tripadvisor, and in 2010 it was the scene of a shootout between drug cartels in which five guests were taken hostage.
Since all their games are taking place on the north-east coast of Brazil, Die Mannschaft are sparing no expense in building their own base in Porto Seguro, hoping it will provide the ideal preparation for their fourth World Cup win. The Guardian reports:
"We saw at the previous World Cup in 2010 that short distances between team headquarters, training pitches and media centre are crucial for everyone involved," the team manager Oliver Bierhoff said.
The "Campo Bahia", as their headquarters will be known, consists of 65 rooms still under construction with a what the DFB said was a "village atmosphere" and well away from the crowded metropolitan areas of Sao Paolo and Rio. It is to be completed by March.
The German camp is 45 minutes from Porto Seguro's airport, from where they can fly to each of their group games in under two hours. The opener in Salvador is around 430 miles away, the second game in Fortaleza is 1,000 miles north and the final game in Recife is an 870-mile jaunt. This may sound like a lot of time ordering golf tee sharpeners from Sky Mall in the air, but it is quite reasonable compared to the schedule of their Group G counterparts The USA, who will travel 9,000 miles during the first round.
"It was important for us to minimise any travel fatigue because of the size of the country and the great distances between cities," said Olivier Bierhoff. With the stress of accommodation now taken care of, now all the German players have to worry about it how early they will need to get their towels laid down on a lounger at the training complex pool to avoid disappointment..."
This just makes me realize that the USA really didn't make their lives easier by going back and forth to Sao Paolo.
