Hey @Buzz Rules ~ DH was just notified he has been selected as a Volunteer for the World Cup matches in Atlanta!! He's pumped. No other info yet, they'll follow up with training information.

Not World Cup, but worldly we have received info that we can put in for tickets for March match USMNT vs Portugal .... I want to go to that one to see Ronaldo!! We already get tickets for USMNT vs Belgium with our season tickets.

He sure did. Two peas in a pod, the gifter and the recipient.

Currently watching now… hopefully Group D will serve us well! It’s like the Kennedy Center Honors came early…

@Buzz Rules, without links, can you explain why some teams picked get position one and why some get position two and some are getting position three when they’re all being picked in the same round? Also, why can’t some countries play other certain countries? This seeding is very confusing.

Voila!

Take I-5 from Disneyland and you can find the US team’s opening match… June 12!

The rule is that teams from the same confederation can't play each other in the group stage. The exception being Europe.
