USA is in a very tough group with Germany, Portugal, and Ghana.... but if they can beat Ghana (who they play tonight) they may just qualify to the knockout round above Portugal.... As for winning it (and becoming genuine World Champions!) don't hold your breath lol... I'd like to see USA do well and progress though, as I want to see football/soccer grow there....

I love football, but I have to admit it's is a weird game in terms of controlling and moving the ball with your feet; it doesn't come natural to any child to use feet....if you kick a ball to any small child it wont kick the ball back to you... instead it will pick it up using their hands and throw it back, because it's much more natural to us to use our hands... and like you say, it can be a low-scoring sport... but there is intense passion!

As for this World Cup, it's difficult to look beyond Argentina, Brazil or Germany for the eventual winners.... but I'd love to see a less fancied country like Mexico, Colombia or Chile win it!!!
