Just a question for the Americans. The official world rankings came out today. Out of 205 football playing countries in the world - where do you think the USA is ranked?

Edit: It's hard to find it being broadcast on sports channels here, so it's difficult for me to catch the games to know where we stand. I'm sure if I were an avid sports fan enough to consider paying the extra $25.00 a month for ALL the sports channels, I'd see some, but my bill is already $75.00+ per month, so I suffer with what's on the channels I DO get. ------------------ Alureth...Dragon friend of Breanna, Mage and Advisor in the Court of Lady Lioness Co-Owner/Operator of the Evil Petting Zoo and devout member of the HADB clan.

considering the fact that in North America they are only outbested by Canada and Mehico (not that there are a lot of other countries there) and because of that tend to at least get into the World Cup (unlike the Netherlands )
I would say about 40th or something Though i have to say that i think at least 40 European countries are better then the USofA that says something about the Ranking system And no it's not Soccer It's Football It's onlder then American football so we get to choose our name ------------------ Behold he who stands before you Almighty (shared) Leader of the OHF Proud member of the Ancients Club The one True Druidic Sorcerer of the Laughing Hyena's Last of the Ancient race known as the Red Fluffies Summoner of Bunnies Spam Sentinal of the Ironworks "You can Run, You can Hide, But you can never do both" I'm Watching you...

Interesting answers, but you'll be suprised to hear that they are 19th out of 205. Strange but true!
Reeka,nice answer rico - no I am talking about football here, and any more from you and I'll give a report on your performance in the conker competition. ------------------ Save Chip - Don't let Sarah win!

Heheh - we are up two places to 48th - still, we conquered the best two teams in the world this year, and (once again) stand on the brink of World Cup qualification . Oh, and the OZ versus France game is still going ahead (country before club old bean ).
