What a fantastic afternoon of World Class Soccer! Yeah, I know, America lost 3-2, but what did you expect against Brazil. At times in the 2nd half it looked like Brazil was playing 20 on 11. If not for an amazing performance from goalkeeper Tim Howard, the US probably loses 6-2. Still, a 2nd place finish at the Confederations cup is something to build on toward next Summer's World Cup. I still think US coach Bob Bradley is over matched strategically. It is dumb to bring a talent like Freddy Adu to this tournament and never use him while continually employing guys in the midfield that suck on the ball. (I'm looking at you Sascha Klejstein!) Much like the 2002 quarter finalist team with Brad Friedel, as long as Tim Howard is between the pipes, this team has a chance to go places. They are still not on the consistent level of a Brazil, Spain, England, or Argentina but given a decent draw, the United States can make some noise next Summer.

It appears Sergio Kindle has learned his lesson from his DUI 2 years ago.....or maybe not.

Do you like Ice Dancing as a sport? What if I told you that the following rack belonged to an ice dancer?
