    Sorry to you guys from the US who were eliminated from the World Cup. Australia is into the final 16. :clap

    It looks like the US were in the competition just "to make up the numbers". :cry

    Better luck next time.

    That works for me. :thumb

    One things for sure. The final is bigger than the Superbowl, the World Series, the NBA, the NHL finals put together for some of us. :nod

    It may be a lot of years before the US has the skill players to compete in the World Cup.

    And you want to know what? Just about nobody in the US gives a shit.

    THAT is why we will never be a force in soccer. We as a country are way more interested in football and goober-go-round.

    Yup, it's all related. Low interest = low paychecks = best athletes play richer sports.
