As the Truth sees it…

For three weeks America has taken an interest in soccer like never before. Even I found myself watching a full game, that I wasn’t covering, for the first time in my life. That included today when the USA lost to Ghana 2-1.
Like most Americans who know little to nothing about the world’s obsession with soccer, I was under the belief that the US had a chance to win the World Cup. But we saw today, that there is still a gap between international players and Americans.
However, for three weeks the USA team made soccer popular in America. That is something I thought would never happen. Now the big test is whether it will continue to grow here. In the past, it has not happened. But anything is possible in this new age, I guess.
