World Cup 2010

I'm not dumb... I know that most Americans don't care to watch the best & most LOVED sport in the world (hense the name - WORLD Cup), but if you haven't taken a gander at the 8 Groups (which have 4 teams each)... 32 teams total... and how they are doing in the World Cup which is currently going on in South Africa - WELL... YOU SHOULD! It really is exciting!
Case in point. The very anticipated game today between Spain and Switzerland (where Spain was the heavy favorite to win the 2010 Cup) ended in a VICTORY for the underdog Swiss team 1-0. Talk about an upset. In terms of Team USA, they have one game under their belt (gaurenteed three) and they are tied with England for 2nd place. Slovenia (who? I know, really) is currently in 1st place in their group. Big game on Friday between USA & Slovenia. Time will tell how the USA boys will do...
Again, all the Americans who love their football, basketball, baseball and even hockey - should take a few and take in the GLOBAL love of this sport. Why is it that only America doesn't seem to have soccer (or rather... futbal) engrained in their culture like the rest of the world does?
