the US soccer team needs you

If you are a lost case anyway, you may put down your monocle now or read/watch the famous Monthy Pythons „Philosophers’ football match“ here:

Set your alarm for the football/soccer friendly match Germany : USA today/tonight!

I for one have tickets for the match and will join 70.000 other self-proclaimed football/soccer experts in the stadium to get a first hand impression of the state of the art of both teams and of the World Cup fitness of the US soccer fans.

I am really curious how the US boys will perform. With the manpower of 300 million potential soccer players some think of the US as the „sleeping giant“ (cough, cough). My cristall ball says, the US team will sooner or later belong to the top teams in the world.

The US Soccer Federation President said that „everyone tells us that we should have beaten the German team in the 2002 World Cup quarterfinals “ because „we“ were the better team that day.

Let’s put it that way: the Germans were lucky that day, but they always are anyway, just ask others.
So it could as well have been the US team in the World Cup final already in 2002.

For the world cup 2006 I am expecting an even better performance of the US team, basically because I would like to watch the semi-final „USA : Iran“. If the US teams makes it through the group round which will be tough because they play in a „death group“ with Italy, Czechia and Ghana, everything is possible.

So Yankees, give it a go! Support your team! US soccer since 1913!
