Boy, the USA really does have a tough road.  To play not only the #4 team in the Quarters but the host nation as well, that'll be a challenge.  And if the make it past France, then they likely get #3 England.  Meanwhile in the lower bracket #2 Germany would face just the 2nd place team from either Group E or F in the Quarters and in the Semis, at best either #5 Canada, #6 Australia (who got whalloped by #8 Netherlands), or #7 Japan (too young).  But will the GER women's team choke like the men's team did last year and not even make it out of the group?  Will an African team (none ranked higher than #38) surprise this year?

Here are my two entries in the pool.  As this is our 10th soccer pool, my main entry is Futbol Fabone Dix (10).  And in support of rebuilding from the horrible fire at Notre Dame in April, let's please Restore the Spire.

Good luck to everyone!  We have 39 entries which is great with 12 hours to go!
