    I don't think it was an issue of caring. That Pia Sundhage was going against the side of her homeland should have been incentive enough. Furthermore, there was only the incentive of winning the group and playing Australia instead of Samba.

    Wonder how much Samba will lick its collective chops looking at the leaky American back line? That was awful.

    Brazil's defense is suspect as well. This could be a 4-3 thriller, and if it is, Brazil wins. USA wins if Hope Solo has the game of her life.

    Samba's defense is suspect. Samba has more offensive firepower, but Hope Solo given the Americans the advantage between the pipes.

    Unpossible. No Mexico-U.S. match is friendly. ;D

    Stitch, do yourself a favor and use The Button on that sock puppet.

    Huh. So watching England in the Women's World Cup is just as traumatizing as watching them in the men's version.

    15 minutes from England playing a shootout in the World Cup. We know how those turn out.

    I'll say this, I'd sure as hell love it if the men played with this much guts.
