In any event this US team has a decent chance to make it in to the second round if they can draw to with England tomorrow. The great thing about this world cup is that there is no clear favorite and the competition is really open. Watch some of the games with the quality attacking teams like Brazil, Spain or the Netherlands and you may be surprised about how much you like it.
Come on man there's more real collisions on one play in American football than a whole soccer match. And if an American football player is hurt it's real and not some drama. If a stretcher comes out on an NFL field the stadium is silent and it's usually very serious.

Get real man, soccer is big around the world but it's a little on the panzy side for me. LOL Just kidding around a little sorry. Those guys are good athletes with lots of talent obviously.
