Soccer 'sissy'? Obviously you never played it. Plenty of injuries. A lot more contact than Baseball and at least as much as Basketball. Get a cleat in your face than say there is no roughness to it.

It looks like Glenn B hates soccer, not America. This has been a great World cup, drawing a lot of American interest with the U.S.  team performing well this year. And it's not over yet.

Soccer has Worldwide interest and America is surely part of the World.It is a growing interest here in the U.S. Could it be that many staunch conservatives do not really care about the rest of the world, so why not ignore soccer too? It's a threat  to some because it opens the World community (and World affairs, problems, awareness) to us in a new way. God forbid!

For those who do love soccer (and/ or spiritual matters, matters of the Soul) have you seen this?

Amazingly accurate predictions and analysis of World Cup games from a Spiritual perspective.

Soul Whisperer is 4 for 4 already in her predictions of the World cup finals alone!

See her prediction on the Finals winner, (posted on her blog July 1st) the one to win it all, as well as interesting team/game analysis on her blog "Soul Meets Soccer in the World Cup" at blogs.sport24.co.za/SoulWhisperer

Questions/comments welcome.  Enjoy the games!

I don't think it takes a lot of spiritual insight to see it coming.  Germany and the Netherlands are by far the strongest teams and Germany is unstoppable.

Uruguay got there by pure luck and an easy group and Spain alway fails before the end, even though they have a good team.

Ken,

I played a lot of Fus-bol.  I think it was the Pitchers on Tap league.

Does that count.

It's hard to hold a frosty mug AND spin those handles.
