wish people got as excited about this here as in other countries. pretty sad when the US is ranked higher than countries that are known for their football and people here don't even know what world cup is =P
wonder if we'll host it again in my lifetime for that matter =P

The ranking system is gay, they might aswell just use the odds at the bookies to rank nations... would be alot more accurate...

I wouldn't say that, it could be made a bit simpler to understand. But it's a good system that works based on results, importance of game, strength of Confederation ect.

I don't know how people can say that.
If England go out, I don't care who wins. I have no second team in the World Cup, all that matters to me is England. The rest can just f*ck off as far as I'm concerned.

This is a football related statement, and is no way intended to offend anyone person or country.
