USA Soccer Team

I would just love to take this time to show love and respect to the US Soccer team, for their big shut out win again the undefeated topped rank Spain team. I really do not follow soccer on a major level, but I do love to see when our teams do well. I wonder if one day soccer will become a mainstream sport like football, basketball, baseball, and hockey. But why is it that we as Americans do not follow and cheer for the sport of soccer like we do all others??? Is it the lack of scoring or "excitement" to us that makes it so unappealing? Or maybe its our lack success, but is our lack of success tied into our lack of following? Or is it lack of star power in the US, I've tried to get into soccer often but the long periods of time between scoring and game changing plays is just to much for me to handle. I do love the amazing footwork that is always on display. With that type of skill you would think it would bring a bigger crowd but it never does. Even with a "Star" like David Beckham could not bring fans to The Worlds favorite game. But maybe one day Soccer will become mainstream but it all rest on the shoulders of our National team because if they can't win then why should we care????
