Goal?After years and years of soccer fanatics saying that soccer will become popular in the USA, it seems this year might in fact be the year. Why? Because the USA team in the World Cup does not completely suck. Americans have a hard time rooting for teams that continuously lose. There are notable exceptions...the Cubs, the Red Sox (pre 2004). With those teams, their suckiness actually became a novelty. I wish I could be horrible at my job and still have support. However for the most part, we have a difficult time rooting for mediocrity. Ask the 3 Pittsburgh Pirates fans that still show up to the games.
So this is the year soccer is considered a sport in this country. Until we completely suck again. Let's face facts, soccer will lose its popularity soon and only be viewed on Telemundo.
