Good going USA. From dead last in 1998 to a respectable 12 this time.

And let's not forget a quarterfinal appearance in between.

Anyway, let this serve as inspiration to you, Jamaica. Never give up your dreams of once again qualifying for the Hexagonal one day!

The rankings seem reasonable except I would move Argentina behind Ghana and let the rest ride.

Thank goodness for the USA and MexTico.

They place CONCACAF on the football map.

Some countries are still twisting themselves in a knot--still chatting about "skill ballaz". ~sigh~

[Rudi]

HL, one of the reasons 'some countries' talk about skill ballaz is that invariably it is always the countries with 'skill ballaz' who facilitate the US' exit from the world cup. Ghana has now done it twice. It should be obvious to you guys in the US what is obvious to everyone else.
