Nothing of value was lost?

Not like the bulk of the country would watch it.

Fucking so? The national team does have fans. Millions of people around the world watch the World Cup.

Fair enough.

Nothing worthwhile comes out of my mouth, to be honest. Can't make anything good when you're starting with nothing to begin with.

it was just an unlikely scenario of us losing to trinidad and panama and honduras beating tougher competition.

but our fault for not getting at least a draw. sucks because we did, we thought, redeem ourselves by crushing panama a few days ago.

super bummed out but i will still watch the world cup. i love soccer after all.

It's sad that we didn't qualify since Soccer has been getting more and more popular since the last 2 world cups :( I find soccer much more fun than baseball or our murican football

We lost to Trinidad. Time to rethink some things.

Considering Trinidad has only qualified ONCE ever, in 2006. And was knocked out in the group stages.

Edit: I'll still be watching the world cup. I've been watching both the men and women's one's every time since 2004.

You, uh... might want to update your opinion here. Soccer has arguably surpassed hockey as the US's fourth most-popular sport (US ratings for English Premier League games now exceed those of NHL games). This is especially true at the sub-pro level - more kids play soccer than any other sport except for baseball.

Soccer isn't making a push for Big Three status yet, but it's definitely trending in that direction.

As above, TV ratings and youth enrolment rates say you're wrong.

Yeah it is undeniable that soccer has made important strides in recent years. I dont have any statistics to back it up but I see more and more people wearing soccer jerseys, fifa is insanely popular even among the crowd that plays madden, and in addition to all of this, its no longer cool to bash soccer. back in the day you'd have people agree, even when youd hear ridiculously dumb things like it takes no skill, there are no tactics, and its a sport for "girls" Now you cant say that stuff without people willing to beat your ass.

of course those anecdotes dont mean much, but its what ive seen personally.
