The U. S. Got Own'd...

Seriously, I was expecting something totally different in that game. What happened to the team in '02 that eliminated Portugal, made it to the quarterfinals, and lost a game by 1 point (against Germany, ironically) that it should've won? Team USA, no offense, was horrible against the Czechs on Monday. Their defense was nonexistent (seriously, how do you leave the tallest guy in the World Cup alone in the penalty area?) and the offense doesn't even deserve comment.

 

See, this is what happens when Landon Donovan decides to stay in the MLS instead of playing real soccer. (Don't get me wrong. I like the MLS. I think it's cool. But if you want to be prepared to play against the big guns, the MLS just isn't the place.)

That's what I understand. I don't follow sports. At all.

Except for professional wrestling, due to its hilarity. Soccer cannot possibly touch the hilarity that is professional wrestling.

 

How the heck did America get in there in the first place? Seriously, we're like, the only country in the world that doesn't call it football (or the exact same thing only more in that language), we're exceptionally worthless, and we're well aware that it's the province of the rest of the freakin' world. Let's go play basketball or something something. We're even getting somewhat creamed at that. S

eriously, where were the South Americans this whole time? Were steroids involved? That'd make it like all of the other American sports.

What a shame.

Actually, Canada calls it soccer too, but that's beside the point.

The US is currently ranked 5th in the world.

Not anymore. See, the US team was actually *gasp* playing well the past few years. At the last Cup (in '02), the US made their best showing ever. What I'm trying to say is that in Monday's game, the team just wasn't themselves. I know they could've played much better. Oh well. The whole thing's moot by now anyways. We'll just see how the US plays in the next game (which they have to win to advance to the next round, incidentally).
