    Even when we don't care about a sport, our players are breaking records (Howard is a beast). Have not watched anything because of my principles, but I am happy the US is becoming more dominant in the one sport that the rest of the world seems to care about the most.

    It was expected, but there were positives for the Americans.

    And, more importantly, it's not truly a World Cup when Serbia isn't playing, so it doesn't really matter who's gonna win.

    Certainly a long way to go before they can really compete, but I hope the US performance get you guys more interested. I am impressed to say the least, not just by the game but also the chivalry. Good lads.

    Absolutily out of USA lololol territory

    Here's an interesting article for all those Americans who are saddened by the loss:

    I will also second the recommendation for Grolsch that one of the commenters makes.

    Oh yeah, Fragony has already convinced me to root for the Dutch.

    And I am very excited for the France/Germany game tomorrow!

    He forgot the most important reason, the Dutch love the American people. That's rather rare.

    Rather boring game by the Germans and French. I wanted to see blood drawn.

    Brazil - Columbia was much better. Rooted for the Columbians but, sadly, no upset.

    Interestingly, all 4 goals today from dead ball situations. Me not like that, even though David Luiz scored a great one.
