There's something happening here.

Why is it so quiet?

I'm beginning to think there must be something going on in the USA, but I've no idea what it could be.

Please don't mention this year's World Cup. The USA did much better than England.

The shame. It's not even a game you take seriously!

Ummm...

WE are football people - or so we've always told ourselves.

That game Americans play where they hurl themselves at other people and occasionally throw the ball backwards is not football. Football involves the foot making contact with the ball!

My boss is English, but now a US citizen. When England was eliminated, he just switched to watching the USA. smile

I was helping my in-laws move. It definitely had nothing to do with any ball games!
