Wow, looking at it, one thing that really jumps out is it is quite possible that no African team advances. Unlikely, but this is maybe the worst possible draw for African teams as a group.

I love this draw. Can't wait to watch the England match.

What time would these games be played, locally? Just wondering how much time I might have to take off from work.

Oh, and I kinda like the new uniforms. If that is what they will really be.

Actually I think that they are in decent position in several groups.

I think a few can advance, but none have an easy road. I think Nigeria and Ghana have perhaps the easiest groups.

Ivory Coast was drawn into a terrible group. Shold be fun to watch though.

Is Suazo fully recovered yet?

Also, what lineup would Honduras roll out with, if everyone was healthy. Pavon + Suazo with Costly as a sub? Or Pavon + costly?

ESPN/ABC has to be happy: USA-England WC opener is the late game on a Saturday. Best soccer rating ever?
