World Cup draw, US craps out, gets group G with Germany, Portugal, and Ghana (which beat US the last 2 World Cups).

Italy is in group D with Costa Rica, England, and Uruguay.

I don’t think the group is so bad.

Portugal is a one-man team, and Ronaldo hasn’t exactly lit it up in his previous World Cups. Remember we beat Portugal in 2002.

Germany will be tough, but having Klinsi, who knows their system inside and out, could give us an edge to at least snare a tie in the one.

And Ghana will be tough but not impossible.....Maybe 1-1-1 will be good enough to get through, we’ll see.

Yes, not very sexual for the USA. If they earn a tie, they’ll be doing good.

Italy’s road ain’t that much better, but more doable.
