big friday ahead

yeah thats right, what else am i thinking about? what else should you be thinking about?

the world cup draw stupid, duh!

so theres a pretty good rundown here of how the whole thing is done.

obviously you've hit the jackpot if you get south africa, you really can't have a hard group w/ them in it. looking down from there, you have to say all of the rest of the seeds are pretty tough. if you want to tell me france and argentina haven't been playing well you go ahead, i'm still liking their chances.

now as for the other 2 pots, or the rest of UEFA/africa, is where it starts to get interesting. this is really the guy who's gonna dictate your group. assuming we dont draw SADARICA, we're more than likely looking at a proven
1)a proven EUROPEAN FORCE (france, spain, italy, germany, england 5/8 chance)
2) a mediocre euroteam (swiss,greece,danes,serbs,)4/8 chance a nasty group (portugal,holland) 2/8 or a cupcake (slovaks,slovens)
3)a tricky african/chilean/uruguayan team.

all and all i'm expecting something like,
italy,slovakia, algeria, i would really like that.
or spain, denmark, ivory coast, would not like that....
