Given that the entire rest of the world is for football and the WC...

Doesnt it EVER cross America's mind that it alone does not have 'soccer' as its no1 sport?..do Americans ever think that being in the minority could mean they are wrong?.

No more than it occurs to soccer fans that their following everyone else--in every underdeveloped country, every nowhere economy, every country people leave to come to America--could mean they're sheeple.

And no more than it occurs to soccer fans that ONE country alone does not have 'soccer' as its number one sport--the same country that is the ONLY world superpower.

The ONE country that doesn't follow everyone else LEADS the world. Make the connection. ;)

One quick look at the history of the Billboard chart shows that just because something is popular doesn't mean it's good. And I like soccer, I just don't think its popularity should have anything to do with its (or anything else's) perceived quality.

Wrong about what? We must be an inferior country because the majority of us think soccer sucks? Give me a break. Being in the minority in the soccer debate bring American pride to my heart.
