Ok, now that we know how many are going....
who will be going to 2006?
I'll venture the guess of:
USA
Mexico
Costa Rica
Guatemala- beats some Asian team and shows what it's like playing in central america

With all respect, I think it is impossible for you to mention a Guatemalan team in this without mentioning Honduras.
Something EXTREMELY ACKWARD would have to happen for Honduras to not be in this list and Guatemala in it.
For Guatemala to be even close they must change their thinking completely, 100% and I dont think this is remotely possible in a 4 year period.
Unfortunate but true.
At the same time I see Costa Rica declining a bit, I dont think it'll be easy to qualify.

I needed something to make my 4 picks a little more unique. I just have a feeling about the Guats this time around. We'll see.....

Does it start with an R, end with a z and have ui in the middle?

By just one player? We don't even know if he is going to maintain his level.

Wow. Some people are choosing Guatemala to go through to the WC in 2006 based on the form of one striker 4 years before the big dance.

Mexico, USA, Costa Rica.
After that I'd have to say Honduras is the current favorite to take the playoff spot or to relegate one of the other 3 to the playoff spot.
If I had to pick a darkhorse to get that 4th spot, how about Canada??

Without a decent professional league it won't happen. There are too many other countries with a lot more money for soccer and much better federations.
