Football (soccer) is definitely what planet Earth is playing. When I look at the Teams & Groups tab for the World Cup, there are countries from Uruguay to the Ivory Coast to Cameroon playing!
I think I secretly find some satisfaction that the USA is just mediocre. Don't get me wrong, team USA is MY team!!! I just wonder if its not an accurate picture of world competition when the USA dominates the Olympics in basketball, or even the fact that we say the New Orleans Saints are the best Football team in the world (this year). I mean, who else is even playing football in the world? Doesn't say much to me really.
But when the World Cup happens, thats when the countries of the world really put their chips in the pot and we see who has what it takes. In these arenas and on these fields it doesn't matter who has the biggest nuclear arsenal or the greatest GDP. What matters is who will be standing in the end.
