[wehateporn]

group B and D, the hardest ones

G too

[BettingHandle]

Group A is relatively easy for Brazil, and gives Mexico a great chance to get into the knockout stages.

[djroof]

Hmmmm interesting group for my team GREECE!

[Scott McD]

Hoping England get fucked. Obviously...

[scuba steve]

G too

agreed. more even level playing group

[EddyTheDog]

If they have any stadiums to play in it should be good...

[MaDalton]

i have many friends from Portugal here - thats going to be fun (for me or for them)

[BettingHandle]

If they have any stadiums to play in it should be good...

All 6 stadiums under construction will miss FIFA deadline

[seeandsee]

Belgium and Greece got lucky

[RandyRandy]

Colombia got an easy draw - they should make some noise in 2014. They haven't advanced since 1994 and the Andres Escobar own goal fiasco, leading to his murder in the Las Palmitas parking lot in Medellin.

Great ESPN 30 for 30 on that: The Two Escobars:

[oppoten]

Colombia got an easy draw

Yeah, you might get England in the second round!

(not that I think we'll qualify)

[TumblrPRO]

Group D is the DEATH GROUP...

Also it will be fun seeing how Holland, Chile and Spain destroy each other...

[thumbuilderic]

Hmmmm interesting group for my team GREECE!

Right there with you! Go Greece!

[Emma]

England need a miracle to progress in this group.

[slapass]

The USA does not look to hopeful to move on. Anyone a fan and know if Portugal is that good? Obviously they have an offense.

[mamaliga]

prostitutes gone wild

[LA Crew]

prostitutes gone wild

Yeah. Prostitutes struck a deal with a bank and will be given chip + PIN machines so they will accept card payments.

FIFA's seeding system is ridiculous!

Nate Silver's super-complex ranking that uses things like goal differential and home field advantage, as well as player performance on the club level. these are the actual top-8 teams in the world:

Brazil
Argentina
Spain
Germany
Chile
Colombia
France
Uruguay

FIFA's seeding system is ridiculous!

Its well known that they artificially inflate USA's ranking, hoping still to break into that market.
