I promise you: No American whose great-grandfather was born here is watching soccer. One can only hope that, in addition to learning English, these new Americans will drop their soccer fetish with time. ...... Individual achievement is not a big factor in soccer. In a real sport, players fumble passes, throw bricks and drop fly balls — all in front of a crowd. When baseball players strike out, they're standing alone at the plate. But there's also individual glory in home runs, touchdowns and slam-dunks. In soccer, the blame is dispersed and almost no one scores anyway. There are no heroes, no losers, no accountability, and no child's fragile self-esteem is bruised. There's a reason perpetually alarmed women are called "soccer moms," not "football moms." All Mushrooms are edible! Some Mushroom are only edible ONCE!

Anyway she may as well be banging her head against a wall. For the first time ever, one can genuinely say there is world cup fever in the USA. People are gathering at their equivalent of Uhuru park in every city to watch team USA play. The TV audiences are bigger than baseball and basketball finals. A far cry from the late 1990s when every American TV talking head always insulted the game and its fans. Now every TV talking head wants to jump on the bandwagon. It reminds me of the days of the Fabisch boys circa 1997 when Kenyans jumped on the harambee stars bandwagon.

I think on world sport they had a list of countries with the most fans in Brazil,no.1 was US with 154,000. possunt quia posse videntur
