No huge upsets in the works, all the seeded teams should go through. The USA have the toughest of the groups. Spain the easiest. Cant wait:)

Spain has sure got the easiest. Now we just need Brazil and Argentina out...
But England has got quite an easy draw mind.

I root for the Brazilians.
Do they need any more support... Wouldn't be too surprised myself if there was a win for the home team, as in 1998 in France...

Maybe, but Brazil and England don't mix well... well for the Brits they don't.

my rolling eyes face in the other post was as a "wow" to the previous post which said about Brazil routing in its group.

I'll have to disagree with you on Spain having the easiest group, Craig. Tunisia are the current African Cup holders, they won it with good play too and are no pushovers. With regard to which team has the easiest path to the next round... I'd say Germany! Their main threat is Poland...and we all know how good they are..
I see most of the top seeds winning their group, with the exception of Mexico (I think Portugal will win) and maybe Italy.
Oh, and i expect England to reach the Semi-finals at worst. ;)

As always political bias is always there.
