The U.S. really kicked ass. I'm sorry we didn't win, but everyone is saying how great we played, which is the minimum I wanted (winning the cup being the most ;-) . I'm so happy it wasn't a 4-0 blowout or anything like that. Even the Marca said that the U.S. left the field with "heads held very high." Cool. A little respect is nice.

Nevado, who's your husband? It must be great to be in Korea right now with the cup. Be thankful you're not in Japan. 1) They lost and 2) The Japanese refuse to broadcast any games from Korea, so if you're in Japan you have no idea how half the tournament is going.
