C'mon soccer fans! (Particularly US Mens Team soccer fans)
Get your mouse and keyboard away from The DU Lounge and into the soccer board! The World Cup is approaching, and the US has to prove that their 2002 performance was no fluke. Start waving the US flag for Sam's Army!

1. I'm torn....
We live in Mexico and both my husband and I are huge soccer fans (in fact he is playing in a soccer match right now).

As much as I would like to root for the US...I have to cheer on Mexico.
If the US won no one would care. If Mexico wins it would mean the world.

I want a country to win that would appreciate the trophy and what it stands for.

:shrug:

2. There are millions of soccer fans in the US
There's even a nationally televised soccer league. Root for the Red, White, and Blue.

3. Swedes appreciate football wins.
Heck, we even appreciate a good tie.
