Maria Schneider from Last Tango in Paris was hot.

And my wife is part German, and she's hot.

Yeah, looks like a tough road ahead for the US. England should make it through okay. Too bad I can't support T&T in all of their matches.

Looking forward to seeing the Dutch take on Argentina too!

Rhett, post a picture of your wife and let us decide.

Ghana can also beat the US. England might be out. My teams: Ghana and Togo.

weren't england and sweden paired up in 02?

Yep.

A 1-1 draw. England hasn't beaten Sweden since the 60's - 11 straight matches (with only 7 goals scored in those matches).

Why do I need you to decide if she's hot? I've already decided for myself.

US beats Mexico to make the '02 quarters…

I call bullshit

How important is that now?

The US faces Italy, Ghana and the Czech Republic.

Mexico faces Iran, Angola and Portugal.

Disappointing.

We all have seen pictures of Claudia Shiffer, Heidi Klum, and all of us have seen Run Lola Run and remember the actress.

Czech Republic on June 12 at Gelsenkirchen.
Italy on June 17 at Kaiserslautern
Ghana on June 22 at Nuremberg.


What the hell am I gonna do inthese cities when the games not on?

Thankfully, I should be surrounded by plenty of Italian and Czech women….

The US is obviously in a bit of trouble…

I think the team that should be the most pleased is Portugal…they should easily make the second round. I think they will be a sleeper in this Cup–that is, if you can ever call Portugal a sleeper.

I find this whole process to be a joke…a formula that takes the tournament from 8 years ago into consideration? The whole thing should be based on world rankings after the qualification stages. Or, at least create four pools based on the rankings and then randomly select.

Fortunately, Gelsenkirchen is close to Cologne and Nuremberg is somewhat close to Munich so you don't necessarily have to hang out in those cities. Kaiserslautern isn't far from Frankfurt, but I'm not sure if that's much of an improvement. Do you have tickets already? I tried and failed the last time around but I'll be making another attempt next week.

thought so, i was in london for that match … with the world cup and the queen's jubilee, it was a crazy week

I call double bullshit now…the mexican draw (which should of been the US) is a joke….the portugese probably will win the group, but angola and iran

instead, US is in the group of death (not a "traditional" group of death, but hell, you have at least one good team that wont go through in it)

I am. My brother-in-law and I have planning this for sometime. Should be a blast. We're hoping to get tickets for the US matches through the US distribution next week, but we also have corporate tickets for the some of the quarters and semi's locked up, but not knowing what teams, it's a crap shoot.

Good luck on getting tix pip - I hope you're able to get some.

Good Luck getting tickets. Iam going the same route (US Soccer), but unfortunately will only be able to attend the USA - Ghana match. BY then it, probably won't matter for the US

I got my application faxed in to US Soccer about an hour ago. I asked for a pair of tickets to US-Czech Republic and US-Italy. I'll be a little bit anxious until I hear back from them. They claim it's first come, first serve so I expect my chances are pretty good.
