What type of American are you? You communist. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]

Soccer isn't America's pastime. Baseball is. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]

I thought whining about baseball was.

That's just my own personal pastime.

Ok, I know soccer is kind of boring to watch and hell, I rarely watch it myself, but how can you be so cynical? This is America doing something that it hasn't done since 1950- advancing to the next round of the biggest sports tournament in the world. The entire hallway where I work erupted when the goal went in. It's kind of a big fucking deal.

So people that absolutely don't give a shit about soccer suddenly do because the flag gets waved. Cut to a shot of instant soccer fans in a bar shouting USA! USA!
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Yep. Guilty as charged. The US being involved has me hooked and I probably wouldn't be otherwise. What can I say- I love America.
