England apparently wanted to avoid Australia but I don't think Brazil will be too scared.

Argentina:Holland could be a good early game.

USA home before the postcards, so can we assume they will be the Scotland of the world cup for us English people ?

I assume that the streets of Glasgow etc will be full of people eating herring, droti or the like when we play them ? :D

Tried googling, but no luck :o All I could find is a report saying that twice as many people would watch the draw as watched the Superbowl....no shit Sherlock:D Does this mean there is a world outside of the US?

Okay I was only kidding in my previous post;

Disney's ESPN and ABC Sports, and Univision Communications' Univision Networks, have purchased US TV rights, in English and Spanish respectively, to ALL events controlled by world soccer governing body FIFA through the year 2014, including the 2010 and 2014 FIFA World Cup and the 2007 and 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup, for a total of $425 million in rights fees

I also think it will be PPV to get every game. Euro and WC have been in previous years......... I think now is a good time to boast that I just got HD TV last week :)
