World Cup Fever?

the problem with the US not being into soccer is the media. ESPN broadcasts very little soccer due to the lack of commercial time. One of the biggest tournaments besides the World cup is going on right now the UEFA champions league tournament and very few games are being shown. They are being televised on espn deportes which i'm guessing is in spanish. DC united is undefeated, the best MLS team over the years winning 4 of 5 mls championships that they've been to in 10-12 years that MLS has been around. The last MLS cup game DC united was in was aired the same time as the skins game and i was forced to PIP cuz i couldn't miss either game. United has been forced to share fields with the nats which is a disgrace to such a franchise. As a soccer player for 15 of my 20 years alive soccer and baseball field combo doesn't work. i'm glad to c that US is getting better on an international level where more and more players are getting to europe to make the big bucks and we will be a real contender in like 2 or 3 more WCs. we won't be getting anywhere if the media doesn't support interest by showing more highlights on SC.

watch the scrolling scores on SC next time for soccer scores they won't show any stats of any MLS games, but in baseball frickin every stat possible.

F baseball



not only the media the other things is that the MLS sucks thats the reallity the level of play, the competition the cups really is to young to catch up how it may start to get more fans if it play in cups like libertadores (Latin America verison of the UFC Champions league) and play vs Mexican Argentian and Brasialiam teams like Chivas, America, River, Boca, Corinthias, if they play those teams in regualr certified matches not exhibicion they'll start to get more recognition.

I'm not fan of soccer but I like to see the spanish league, UFA Champions, and world cup I allways get pumped up with the World Cup its 1,000 times better than the Olympics

Ole Ole Ole Olaaaaa Ooole Ole Ole.

1.5 billion people around the world are watching the opening game. YOu all should join in. I cheer for everyone on this side of the world. GO costa rica.

Fortunately I haven't based my sports fandom on the number of other people watching. A billion people have STDs?! I want one too!

I graduated from high school with him back in 2000. He's a monster in terms of sixe for a soccer player. I hope to watch him dominate some Europeans.

Germany 4, CR 2. Thought CR put up a good fight, all things considered. Germany's offsides trap needs work! But they look good and man are they big. And without Balack.

Oh, and Guch is a great palyer for the USA! WE're gonna need him to shut down some of those big European forwards.

Rumor is he's going to be in England next year. Sweet.

USA USA USA!!!!

Dude...German Schizer films are totally out of the question. That job's been left to Cartman's mom...

I've heard that too. Yesterday I was trying to find the bobblehead from his team in Belgium (I can't spell) on eBay, but I had no luck. I need to keep looking.

Great opening game. That is exactly what ESPN and ABC was hoping for. HIgh scoring, great goals, host team won. I also root for any Conmebol team when they play.
