Oh, really? Then I fully support the U.S.A. team. Heh, against England, I see. Good start.

To be honest, I'm only really interested in soccer come World Cup time.

Great Draw, it seems that two or three teams stand out from each group, there shouldn't be too many surprises to qualify to the knockout round  ;)

Group A: South Africa, Mexico, Uruguay, France
Group B: Argentina, Nigeria, Korea Republic, Greece
Group C: England, USA, Algeria, Slovenia
Group D: Germany, Australia, Serbia, Ghana,
Group E: Netherlands, Denmark, Japan, Cameroon
Group F: Italy, Paraguay, New Zealand, Slovakia
Group G: Brazil, Korea DPR, Côte d'Ivoire, Portugal
Group H: Spain, Switzerland, Honduras, Chile

Am not Dutch, but am a fan of the Oranje.

Netherlands have a tricky group. They don't traditionally have great group stage performances in them.

Which is the Group of Death? Group B?

That has no base, Portugal being in the same group of Brazil doesn't mean bad luck

They are all portuguese players, only a few, maybe 2 or 3 are Brazilian Born and that fact alone doesn't make them unable to play for Portugal, if one of his parents was portuguese or if he has resided in the country for a long period of time and takes that nationality will allow him to play for Portugal.

One example is Zinedine Zidane, one of the greatest players from the last World Cups, he was born in France, but both of his parents were from Argelia, when the time came to decide which team he wanted to defend, he chose France, once you make that decision you can never play for the other country you were eligle to play for, it seems in this case he made the right decision, since he seized one World Cup and one Runner Up with France in the last 3 world Cups
