Now that the U.S. soccer team was beaten by Germany by a measly one point (despite still needing to lose to Belgium, which they probably will), we can all go back to waiting for football (the real football) season to begin.
As my favorite political columnist, Ann Coulter, says: In soccer, “everyone just runs up and down the field and, every once in a while, a ball accidentally goes in. That’s when we’re supposed to go wild. I’m already asleep.”
Scoring in real football—tackle football y’all—is never done by accident, not with 300-pounders trying to crush you before you get to the goal line.

You may want to use that post after July 1. I am ready to bet Belgium will suffice, but in football (real football, instead of what you wrongly call football, when every 300-pounder is allowed to handle the ball) everything could happen. And, to be complimentary: US team does really wonders, taking into account how now one cares about it.
“no one”, I meant. Gee…
“No one,” obviously, is going too far. Coulter was trying to be funny, but I can see how a soccer aficionado like yourself would not think so. However tackle football is so much more popular than soccer in this country (let alone in Texas) as for “no one” to almost be accurate. If a U.S.team was not playing, there’d hardly be any publicity of the games at all.
