Yesterday's U.S. v Portugal game probably did more to advance U.S. Soccer than any commercial or homegrown initiative. The U.S. squad played well - aggressively! - for nearly the entire game. That's what casual fans want to see and the U.S. brought it in spades. The television coverage is now watchable with high definition, and the commentary is spot-on. It's now fun to watch soccer. Hope to see the U.S. team keep winning.

Some experts are predicting a tie in the US/Germany game, since for Germany, one of the top 3 teams in the world,is assured of clinching the top group spot with a tie.
This would allow Germany to rest some players, avoid pushing it to the limit and incurring injuries. Thus they don't have an incentive to play too aggressively.
If a tie occurs, US automatically qualifies as the no 2 team in the group.
If Ghana and Portugal tie, the US advances even if it loses vs Germany.
Even if the US loses by 2 goals to Germany and Portugal wins over Ghana by 1 goal, US still advances.
Nice spot to be in.

Brazil is not all futebol and samba....
First World Cup that I saw from start to finish was 1982.
The Brazil team that year was probably the best team ever to NOT win the world cup.
They destroyed every team they played with artistic quality never seen before or since.
Fluke 3-2 loss to Italy team that was totally outplayed by Brazil ended the run.
But the 11 goals Brazil scored were some of the best ever...esp the last one on the video near the 5 min marker.
Tribute video to their late coach Tele Santana who was one of the best creative/offensive soccer coaches in soccer history.
Otherwise...Go U-S-A Today!!!!!

They should have disqualified the whole team. I bet then they'd take it seriously.
