Most of you probably will not care that much.
I actually find this really funny. Watch the United States get destroyed in the most popular sport in the world. I don't really care about the stupid people who say "Soccer is stupid". Try saying that to the other 7 billion people on this planet. There is a reason why it is called "World Cup" and nothing more. There is no need to say "World Cup of Soccer".
Soccer has the craziest fans, hands down. One of the coaches was quoted saying "Soccer is not a matter of life and death, it is much more serious than that."
The only thing that has annoyed me so far is the ignorant sports reporters who know nothing about soccer. Thank God that they have Julie Foudy (Won the Womens World Cup for USA) on ESPN because none of those guys know what they are talking about.
As of right now, the USA is losing to the Czech Republic 0 to 3. I really think it is hilarious because most people from the United States would not think Czech Republic to have a very good team, but it rocks.
However, I am an England supporter along with other European countries (except Germany)
Shane supports all spanish speaking countries in the western hemisphere.
Brent is kind of scattered.
I must admit that South and Central America are not doing too bad this year. I was hoping Costa Rica might beat Germany by some strange event, but at least they did not lose too bad.
Paraguay held my England team to only 1 goal which kept me really nervous all game. (Do Better England!!!)
Biggest upset yet has been the draw between Trinidad/Tobago vs Sweden. Sweden was suppose to dominate, but they didn't. I really want Trinidad to make it to quaterfinals or semifinals because that would be awesome.

YAY world cup!!
I'm rooting for England,Croatia and Tunisia.
someone said recently... maybe I heard it in England, that football (soccer) is the only truely international sport. so true!
anyway. Brazil is going to win probably, but today in their game, Ronaldhino (or however you spell it) was not living up to his reputation, so you never know. Who else is favored? I could only remember England and Germany are up there.
oh and Austin, would you take my last name off of your links? thanks.
