Well since the Dutch have the Flu this match will be easier than trying to reach a bunch of British Paratroopers on the other side of a Bridge,.
Not me
Go Go USA!
Damnit.....
Sure glad they are sick?..this could have been bad
Well... We believe in 2026 lol
Just not there yet
Yeah, we do have a young team with no real superstar like that guy named "Memphis" for the Dutch. Or Bale, or Messi, etc. We'll be much better in 2026. I wish FIFA would play The World Cup every 2 years. The sport is taking over in the USA and most kids are playing soccer vs American football. PeeWee football leagues are on the decline. Parents including my children won't let their kids play football, but the soccer fields are full up with kids running around like ants in a giant MS fire ant hill.Quote:

We send our best soccer players. The other nations send their best athletes. Our best athletes don't play soccer. Probably never will.
A sport culture of man-buns and flopping doesn't exactly sound like a sport that attracts "athletes"Quote:

There are many great athletes in America that do not have the measurables or tailored skill sets to play college football, NFL or NBA so where can they go? If you build it they will come and America is catching up and including soccer in its sphere of culture. Just think of all the American athletes that have not earned money with a global sport like soccer with franchise owners profoundly wealthier than NFL, MLB, and NFL owners? BTW MLB is loosing favor with American youth, just the greybeards are keeping it afloat while youth are embracing soccer. That being said, I believe you to be on point today but that may not be on point in the near future.Quote:
