this shit was pretty sweet. not quite as awesome as the zidane footage from 2006, but close. soccer is as capricious as rocky mountain winds, but i think the united states has some mojo heading into the next games. ghana and then likely uruguay in the round of 8 if they win. the team has, like, 5 serious goal-scoring threats, but the back line is suspect. and i'm not in love with the keeper yet.
yes, he got a red card and was thrown out of the finals. and the italians won. but i hate their dirty-playing and the flopping spanish and portuguese little princess-men. sorry.

That game should have been like 4-0

At the risk of sounding like a traitor, I'd prefer seeing a team like Ghana win. I feel that something like this is so much more important to the citizens of a country that don't have much to cheer about in everyday life because of poverty and the lack of modern technology. They don't have much going for them other than some type of athletic achievement.
