nah i was thinking more back to this props to anyone who was in vent with me that day lol
so the "we" is the US. Didn't know they were playing, and actually didn't even know they made the World Cup. And just because a few people at a bar scream and yell does not mean the sport is popular here. At least I hope that is not what you are saying. Soccer will never be king in the US. I don't even think it will even beat any of the big 4. Hell, I don't even think it will top Neckcar.
Yea, I already brought up being American as well.
Fully aware the sport is not popular here in the United States. I wrote an analysis of that my freshman year in College and it mentioned the truthful points that you have stated in this thread. But there is a significant support of the sport.
It's a decent sized crowd they have an outdoor patio area with a large TV. I'm a few blocks away so the sound has to be somewhat significant. I will admit that my school does attract a lot of international students though since we have some of the top Academic programs in the nation.
I may just be in a more diverse area. I've seen a lot of US Jerseys around today. And my Facebook has been flooded with comments about the game. Also Google displays the match in their Doodle today as well. I wasn't aware of the game initially either until I heard all the cheering lol. We're usually in the cup we just never Win.
Posted by one of my friends: "Fun fact: approximately half of the US team speaks English as a second language"
Just like how half the NHL is Canadian lol.
