My dream scenario would be to

1) Beat England in the group stages, and be one of the teams that contributes to the English press/culture exploding a classic display of self-loathing.

2) Play and defeat France in the 2nd round (rationale: more people in the US become interested in this match because we're such a Francophobic nation)

3) The bandwagon stays strong as we beat Italy; somehow Danielle De Rossi gets his fricking face busted open.

4) Beat Germany in the semis.

5) Beat Brazil in the final

England

or Germany for 2002 revenge

I think it's fair to be jealous enough to read that an mumble, "that bitch..."

I don't think the World Cup board would fizzle out after the U.S. (inevitably) drops off.

The excitement around every post-group stage match is too frantic to be silent.

It would especially be cool if the board opened up several weeks before the WC. I think a lot of us soccer nerds could get into things like team previews, player profiles, speculation, various outlets of humor, etc.

CR's back line was often dismal. I'll give Jozy credit for making some swift and efficient cuts to get free in 1v1 or double team situations, but for most EPL wingbacks, they'd have no problem tidying up his zig-zag charges.

long shot, but are the initials of your twitter username `it`?

I gonna say we win by 3. Super motivated to make a statement and "do it for Charlie."

"Charlie Davies’ career in jeopardy after car crash"

while it may be true, there isn't enough evidence right now to qualify any statement on his health
