Yeah that time Japan, Istanbul, Zimbabwe and Zaire hosted it they made the same mistake.

They were gonna do it alphabetically but the US insisted on taking center stage.

Why? With the exception of Mexico these teams are all just that?

Hey, as Canadians we're ecstatic to be in the round of 16, but it isn't much of a surprise.

The US paid for a good team and they're in a decent group with little surprise that they're on top.

Mexico was in an abymsally easy group and its no surprise they're where they are.

Canada was also in a group with little surprise that we ended up proceeding. Only real surprise was tying the higher ranked swiss.

Given that S.Africa beat the better ranked South Korea, they put up a great show but were still dominated by a sloppy but effective Canada yesterday.

I will be surprised if the next game v Netherlands/Morocco is anything but a blowout, but we made it to the 16 and I'm happy with that.
