Americans Relieved To No Longer Have To Pretend To Like Soccer

U.S. — After the men's national team was dealt a crushing 1-3 loss by the Netherlands, the United States expressed deep relief to no longer have to go on pretending to like soccer.
"Hoo-boy, I didn't think I could keep that up another day," said local man Aaron Bronson. "Thank God for the Dutch!"
After twelve grueling days of trying to get excited about a ball mostly being passed backward, celebrations broke out across America as its World Cup run came to a close. "I know we only have to fake being soccer fans every four years, but it's been a brutal couple of weeks," said local bar owner Greg Jaster. "We scored three goals in SIX HOURS of soccer! And I have it on good authority from a Brazilian buddy of mine that our last goal was actually an accident. I'm trying to be a good patriot and cheer for our team, but come on."
According to people who watch soccer, the U.S. team actually looked better while losing during this World Cup. "The Americans really didn't get outplayed, they just made awful mistakes in all the big moments," said England native Sean O'Houlihan. "They created wide-open shots, and then completely whiffed. They would play excellent defense against the best strikers in the world - but then would totally forget to mark a mediocre player. It's really rather tragic."
At publishing time, no one had understood a word Mr. O'Houlihan had said and switched the channel over to real football.

If a person is going to do satire they should at least make the "quotes" realistic.
Nobody I know was any kind of happy w/how shite Team USA's offensive attack looked in this WC. There was no "Well it wasn't so bad this time!" going on. It was more like "What a fricking wasted chance to actually make some noise. All laid out for us and we played like shite." It's not like we killed it in group play either. We couldn't even beat Wales outright.

It’s amazing how little you hear about something when you don’t live on the internet and watch thousands of hours of TV

I still care about it and can’t wait for Prem league to get going again. I just don’t care as much about the World Cup anymore since my country was eliminated.

Actually, I would say there were more hot girls there than a typical NFL Sunday at the same bar. Surprising since it was so early in the morning.
