OT: USA still have their great coach, Bruce Arena, and he gets the best out of his teams when it comes to big tournaments like the WC. They play like an actual team, rather than like a bunch of talents that have never played together. But despite the big corruption scandal in the Italian league, Italy have a tremendous team: Cannavaro in defense is pehaps the second best defender in the world and a superb athlete well worth watching; the two main forwards, Gilardino and Toni not only complement each other but both are in form and are natural goal scorers. Italy will win the group, meaning that if the USA finish second they'll have the daunting task of facing WC favorites Brazil in the next round. In other words, "Goodnight Vienna."

Damn - I wish picking stocks and trading was as much fun as watching soccer and handicapping games...
