Seriously, though, I'm hoping that the US can make things interesting this year. How are we expected to do?

Realistically? We should make it out of the group stage. If we get a hard group, maybe not even that.

Yea its as deep a squad as we have ever had...arguably the best one. That doesn't really mean we have a ton of success. World Cup is ****ing hard.

I was getting excited until Ibrahimovic said it won't be worth watching anymore.

I want a draw of Ivory Coast, Algeria and Iran. The would be the anti-Group of Death.

So, soccer noob question.

Has the US ever won a world cup?

Oh no, that would be.....unfathomable.

Closest they ever got was the quarterfinals in 2002. Though in 2002 they were sorta screwed and probably deserved to advance to the semifinals.

Each group will have a seeded team, so a group like that can't happen.

Was that the year that we got the Colombian player shot to death because of an own goal when we upset them?

Nah that was in 96 when we were just sort of a feel good story.

The 2002 team was more a team of destiny type just had an amazing run and was pretty skilled.

We aren't going throw a game for Mexico.

The draw to set for group play is December 6th.

Looking forward to this. There are no easy groupings in the WC though.

All times are GMT -6. The time now is 09:39 PM.
