The winner of Group C, either the US or England, will have an "easy" (relatively speaking) path to the semi-finals. There Brazil will likely be waiting....ouch! But, I hope the US can do it. The flip-side, runner-up in Group C will be cast into the road of death! whoa!

Not crazy about Bradley's 23. Young, and unproven, sums it up. I don't see it. Will be surprised to see the US win the Group, which will take beating England. Probably go thru in 2nd and get knocked out the next round.


Predictions, as of now (which I reserve the right to alter)

England 2 US 1
US 3 Algeria 1
US 2 Slovenia 1

US into the round of 16...facing Germany, I think.
