That sucking sound you hear? It's the US.

God, we are so embarrassing. After a 3-0 loss to the Czech Republic, and today's 2-1 loss to Ghana (note: GHANA?), I am somehwat relieved to report that the US is officially out of the World Cup. Now I can get back to my business of supporting other countries without being labeled as a freedom hater.

Here's our final predictions for the winner of La Copa Mundial, based on hours of number-crunching, statistic-pulling, and beer-and-margarita-swilling:

Chris: Argentina (Che boludo!)
Liz: Australia (Aussie Aussie Aussie! Oi Oi Oi!)
Jennie: Netherlands (Because she's half Dutch and her favorite color is orange)
Andy: Ghana (If you can't beat 'em, join 'em)

You heard it here first.
