Soon after making my clever comments on US-Ecuador Davis Cup match
I realized that all the soccer commentary made me confuse
Ecuador with - probably with Paraguay; as a result I came up
with pretty idiotic predictions.
I can also blame it on an intense cold and congested nose which
made me dense. And stuff...

Anyway, besides Gomes they have couple of people in top 300 named
Viver and Ycaza. I have not heard of them before.

US still should win 3-2 without much trouble. 
If that comes true, they'll have Germans again. Where is that
going to be played?

I don't mean to nit pick (again!), but you mean Vivier and Yzaga, right?
Jaime Yzaga is technically an amateur/junior and is Very good... gave
Lendl more trouble than anybody else in the last US Open (in my 
opinion :--)!).
Hope you get over your cold.

Aren't y'all tennis lovers just itching for the weather to get warmer?!

Since they played last year in Hamburg, so this time it will be somewhere
in the US.  I think it would be great to play the match on grass
(where the German #2 (whomever they choose) would be totally neutralized). 
If McEnroe and Mayotte play, I think we would have a good chance to win 5-0.
Realistically, they will probably play it indoors somewhere in
the northeast.  If they do that, then Gilbert would be an excellent
choice for the team.  I don't think that the West Germans are going
to be able to suprise us this year.  I hope that McEnroe will decide
to play, and that Mayotte will be healthy again.  I think that
we will win 4-1 if McEnroe decides to play, and 3-2 if he doesn't.
Does anybody know who comes next (that is IF we win vs. Ecuador and
IF we win vs. West Germany)?

Nope. I think Yzaga is an Argentinian. I read a short perspective
in Tennis  and for a few seconds thought they meant Yzaga,
however that fellow Ycaza, whoever he may be, has a different
first name. Which is good news for Gorman and company.
