USA!!


A Brief History Lesson - - -


   The United States of America men's national soccer team represents the United States in international association football (known as soccer in the United States) competition and is controlled by the United States Soccer Federation. Though soccer has not traditionally had a high profile in American sporting life, the sport has steadily grown in popularity since the 1970s.
The team is, according to the FIFA World Rankings, ranked 14th in the world and first in CONCACAF and has appeared in the last six FIFA World Cups, including hosting the 1994 edition.
The team's best finish in the FIFA World Cup came in the inaugural 1930 tournament where it finished third. More recently, it finished fourth in the 1995 Copa Américaand reached the quarterfinals of the 2002 World Cup. The United States has won the CONCACAF Gold Cup four times in ten tournaments, second only to Mexico. In 2009 the team reached its first FIFA international final at the Confederations Cup, beating reigning European champions Spain on its way to a narrow defeat in the final against Brazil.

    Today our national soccer team once again made it to the quarterfinals of the 2010 World Cup. Hopefully our boys reping the RED WHITE & BLUE will keep up the intense play and make us proud. On the other hand these referee officials better start opening their eyes, frankly it's upsetting more than a few and shit is gonna go down if another Ref is on some bullshit.
