Group L is tough*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Previous MessageOnly tough one is likely Canada's -- all favorites should go through*
Posted by Quiz
|
On quick perusal it’s about the only one that looks to have any depth
Posted by DT
|
L and I are tough*

Great draw for the USA*

|
low ceiling but high floor*

|
USA > Turkiye > Paraguay > Australia*
Posted by uofi1998
|
So... Turkiye probably... tough baller side.*
Posted by uofi1998
|
Turkiye does have some really good young talent

There's like a 0% chance they don't screw this up, right?*

|
Can't be curacao?*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
oh shit, it has to be European*
Posted by assassin
|
Or New Zealand?*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
Oh interesting, it does have to be european*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
Just tuning in. Has this been a shit show the entire time?*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
oh yes. Wayne didn't have time to study his country names before getting trucked out there*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
Well Wayne Gretzky surely didnt do any prep work*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
It's been far worse than this*
Posted by UIHuskie
|
Great draw for mexico*
Posted by Mrap24
|
North Macadamia*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
lol at "Mackadonia"*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
New Zealand cant be in our group, right?*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
NZ is Oceania and Australia is Asia*
Posted by assassin
|
Well that doesnt make any geographical sense
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
it was Australia's choice. They didn't want to qualify out of Oceania
Posted by assassin
|
USA vs Paraguay in LA will be the usas first game*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Second game will be vs Australia in Seattle*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Doing the draw before these playoffs are over is dumb.*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Norway, France, and Senegal is something.*

|
This crowd seems about as stuffy as one of those white tie Trump dinner parties at the White House*
Posted by OB25
|
Don’t love Paraguay *
Posted by MC
|
Same... but so long as we avoid Ghana... can't handle another WC facing them.*
Posted by uofi1998
|
given our recent youth history, it's Morocco we don't want*
Posted by assassin
|
I guess it has to be a Euro side, so a moot point*
Posted by uofi1998
|
If Norway goes to group L....*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
That's right, they can't go in there.*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
BRUTAL for Scotland. Wow.*
Posted by uofi1998
|
That's what happens when you're not a real country.*
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
Paraguay not ideal...
Posted by uofi1998
|
Pretty good draw for all of the hosts so far*
Posted by UIHuskie
|
Could be worse than Paraguay*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
Unquestionably all 3 hosts did better than it could've gone...*
Posted by uofi1998
|
Mexico has gotten a very, very nice draw*
Posted by uofi1998
|
Not awful for Canada either...*
Posted by uofi1998
|
Love getting Australia *
Posted by MC
|
That pretty much put us through if we just play well... (no jinx)*
Posted by uofi1998
|
Great kit matchup - England & Croatia*
Posted by uofi1998
|
Tuff game for England *
Posted by MC
|
who are the pot 3 teams we'd hope to avoid?*
Posted by shua
|
Norway for sure with Haaland... I want Scotland bad, although they're one of the better sides*
Posted by uofi1998
|
Norway? Want nothing to do with Haaland*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
Norway *
Posted by MC
|
WHAT LUCK to get the Aussies instead of Morocco.*
Posted by uofi1998
|
I think Australia is the lowest ranked team in pot 2, no?*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
I think the list of teams in each pot is in rank order*
Posted by UIHuskie
|
I believe this is right*
Posted by uofi1998
|
Yep*
Posted by uofi1998
|
US gets the socceroos*

Terrible viewing experience *
Posted by MC
|
This has been on my screen for 70 minutes... do we know a god damn thing yet?
Posted by uofi1998
|
If I didn’t already know FIFA had no shame, I’d say they should be embarrassed*
Posted by Mrap24
|
This is a low point even by their standards
Posted by Sounder
|
what in the actual fuck are they doing*
Posted by assassin
|
On behalf of 5 billion people worldwide, thank you for the peace Mr. Trump*
Posted by CWR10
|
Bread and circuses*
Posted by Sounder
|
On track to get to the actual draw by Sunday*
Posted by CWR10
|
i don't think we even get the full schedule today, only the groups*
Posted by assassin
|
Best they can do is Village People, Heidi Klum and Kevin Hart…
Posted by SurfTheBoneyard “Surf is just a national treasure.” — Jackie
|
Why would Kevin Heart do that to himself?*
Posted by Sounder
|
because somebody asked, and said they would pay him*
Posted by Sammich
|
Fair, he is kind of a whore*
Posted by Sounder
|
are they letting Trump do the drawing? I'd be funny if they did a fake drawing...
Posted by shua
|
FIFA is so far up Trump's ass, they're going to give him a peace prize
Posted by Sounder

Two peas in a pod (of corruption and grift)*

|
Oh for sure, it's a match made in heaven, they both love the Saudis*
Posted by Sounder
|
Gimme two cupcakes (if possible) and Norway. Two wins and a high profile match *
