U.S. World Cup Update

After seeing the excellent ESPN documentary Two Escobars, my interest in soccer is at an all-time high. Soccer seems to possess the danger and back stories that can attract even the most jaded American….I mean non-Soccer fan. The beautiful game delivered with an exciting first round. Underdogs such as Chile advanced, along with the American squad. One particular highlight was the deadlock the U.S "achieved" against England. If a tie is like kissing one's sister, the U.S has one attractive sibling. Unfortunately, the U.S has lost to Ghana and is officially eliminated. Our country's run may be over, but I have gained some respect for this game people call Soccer.


GOALLLLLLL!
