Does this give the current team an edge?
If one spends one career looking through the rear window to predict the future, I would say yes. It certainly helped in 2002 when they had a rubbish team and made it all the way to the final.

Not changing my prediction. GDR (DRG?) was out of one of the “experts’” top 10, so too bad.
I will agree that the betting public usually knows better. (LEI excluded.)

I finally got my seat assignment for my four Egypt-NZ tickets and was pleasantly surprised! Although they were the lowest category the sightlines are great. First time in this WC process that FIFA hasn’t made me swear.

I haven’t bought any WC merch, and likely won’t. Here’s a good Indy source for unofficial fun jerseys that won’t break the bank:
Yes, Canada is represented and I think their jerseys here are pretty good.
