So basically they have to beat the diving, ref paying, cheap shot artist, cheating Ghana then upset Portugal or Germany, Germany being a huge major upset. That is a tough group, yikes.

Really worried about Portugal and CR7...

Would beating Portugal be considered an upset?

Yes. Beating any of those teams would be considered an upset

Winning the Ghana game would not be an upset. It's true they have had our number a bit but the US isn't a shit team.

Hey....put Official in the thread title.

I am not saying the US team is shit, but mark my words they will struggle to beat Ghana...if they beat them at all.

Portugal has Cristiano Ronaldo (just to name one guy on a superb squad). So...yes.

I was looking yesterday at our back line from 2010 and our back line this year, and I couldn't believe just how awful it was. When your best defender is Carlos Bocanegra, (and you have Jonathan "Slowest Man in the World" Bornstein) you're in a lot of trouble...

At least we've got a serviceable back line now. Besler has been sharp, Beasley has made a good transition from midfield, and Cameron/Johnson and Chandler making a comeback from injury would be excellent. Glad to see Timmy made the 30 man.

Yes, Portugal is currently ranked #3 in the world. Germany #2, Ghana #38. USA currently ranked #14.

Groups A and D look pretty tough as well, but some of them look light. Not sure how those things are decided but looks a bit rigged.

It is. FIFA is a very corrupt organization.
