you may laugh my friend, Spain, Portugal, Holland and Germany are not so much footballers as artists. When they shall make a collage with the pretensions of the USA, then you shall realise the import of the words, and hail the Europeans as purveyors of 'the beautiful game'.
Spain is over the hill and we beat spain didn't we? oh, yes back when they were ranked # 1 in the world....or should I have said over-ranked

I dread the day the USA wins the World Cup. You have no real love of the game, just some warped self-centered ego trip to dominate and own something because it's there. You are a population of locusts descending on that ancient field and devouring everything down to the root.
So, one change in the US is that the budweiser swilling, football watching, soccer ignoramuses have become miller-lite, swilling, nascar watching, soccer haters
