While the usual companies are the favorites, I wouldn't be surprised to see an African country compete at the highest level. Ivory Coast and Drogba - speed, skill and a seasoned coach. Should be interesting.

No team Canada in this World Cup and we are trying to qualify for 2014. They played a friendly over this weekend against Argentina but got crushed.
I think Ivory Coast will find it tough to finish 3rd in their pool Matt. Group G is one tough pool with Brazil, Portugal and with an improving Korean squad.

Yeah I know.. Portugal by a touchdown! haha.. If you haven't seen it, you should check out Ronaldo's goal. It went up in the air and while he was leaning forward, it bounced off the back of his neck and then right in front him for an easy shot.
