group a - uruguay, mexico
the french team is in shambles, they were lucky to qualify, they have their best striker watching at home, a mad scientist of a manager who somehow still has his job, what else could go wrong.
group b - argentina, south korea
i dont know, i think people tend to look past the asian teams, and not without reason, but the koreans are solid all around, it will be interesting to see if argentina has problems with anyone in this group, nigeria are decent, but i like the koreans to advance. and i'll give the greeks 1:1 odds of scoring. this tournament.
group c - england, usa
i keep saying write of slovenia at your own peril, but check out the highlights of algeria v egypt..yikes
group d - germany, ghana
i hope to god that it doesnt happen, but i get the feeling that germany might be poised to make a deep run into this thing again. ballack out, expectations are low, you know how it goes...
group e - holland, denmark
i'm just not impressed with cameroon at all, and japan are god-awful. probably the worst group.
group f - italy, paraguay
how is it that italy is under the radar? they're the f-ing holders. slovakia has as decent a chance as paraguay i guess, just less experience. actually, perhaps this is the worst group.
group g - brazil, portugal
the ivory coast might be the most overrated team on the east side of the mississippi. gervinho certainly has the highest hairline on that side of the equator. north korea could be just terrible, but they could steal a draw somewhere couldn't they?
group h - spain, switzerland
its tough to predict which one of the south american teams is going to do it, but you know someone's gonna make it to the quarters at least. it probably won't be chile though.
