    I've been hearing the US team is improving for the last 20 years but the fact is that's not true. USA has been around the 15ish team in the world for a good dozen years. This 2014 team was not as good as some of the past teams. The best player still plays in freaking Seattle, that should tell you all you need to know. The gap still exists and i havent heard of a crop of young prodigies that would make me think its gonna change soon.
    For a country with such a large population and more registered players than countries like Spain, France, Holland, Portugal, England, the performance is actually below average, like Chest said. They need more time indeed. A lot more time.

    Tim Howard doesn't play in Seattle, nuff said on that

    Fuckin' A.

    The team was 1-2-1 ...

    That's shitty by even Sark standards.

    I'm glad the US is out of the World Cup so you idiots with no knowledge of soccer can go back to ignoring it.

    The US has no playmakers. Belgium has guys in the midfield and at forward that play in the top leagues in the world. They created chance after chance, blowing past defenders while dribbling. The US doesn't have one guy that can create like that, and they never have. They could have won if Wondo or whatever the fuck his name is hit the goal at the end of regulation, but Belgium destroyed the US. The US was lucky it wasn't 5-1. Until the US has a couple of top 50 players that play for the top European teams, they will never do shit.

    Yeah it reminded me of the game where Ty almost beat USC even though they outgaines us by like 300 yards.

    If it wasn't for Howard the Belgium game would have been like 6-0 and the Germany game would have been similar.

    "only one minute of stoppage time!" is the new "We should have gotten another play off!"

    Comparing the US to Mexico and England is like comparing Washington to Georgia Tech and Minnesota.

    I do that all the time.

    Soccer won't be a big deal here until a US team wins a World Cup. Even then, maybe not. Too many people like us think that soccer is kinda gay ($75k).

    It's probably a legitimate fourth sport in parts of the cuntry. FIFA wants it to grow in Muricuh pretty badly (money grab).

    I quit reading, watching, paying attention:

    but the team’s improbable run has given U.S. fans an amazing ride.

    The fuckers were 1-2-1 and got knocked out in the first fucking round of the playoffs!

    We're fucking America! It is not improbable to make the suite 16 ... a place we were at just four fucking years ago.

    I miss America DAMMIT!
