Jeez, even the the only Brazilian is not following the WC!
Looks like I'm the only 'Murican that follows the games. Unfortunately our national character and aspirations reflect the ennui to the sport. We like plenty of scoring and do not play defensively to prevent it. We like great individual performances instead of a machine-like system play. We like pin-point precision in our sport implements (baseballs, 'Murican footballs, basketballs, etc.) and that requires using our hands. Sadly, there is also our First World cultural discomfort, some even call it - 'poverty ball'.
Mexico vs Cameroon is next...
