world cup history: 100% of the time we get 3rd or better, 33% of the time we win it all
olympics history: one time we got 2nd place

BITB is doing his thing today. Saying how crappy usa is for only going 1-2-1. Says we're so far away. Compared yesterdays game to K-State bball playing KU. Completely out matched with better players.

We were outmatched. We played scared. Big countries don't do that. Contenders attack other contenders and don't sit back. We're not that far away though.

[Pete]

He gets me every time, I was yelling at my dashboard (again).

I really like our American Soccer Eagles

[scottwildcat]

the 1-2-1 talking point is dumb, saying we were outmatched and outplayed by Belg and Germ is correct tho.
