Soccer? really? why? Yeah yeah, soccer is the most popular sport in the world, yet they fail to mention why that is....lack of better things to do by those living in mud huts is why.
I'd sure hate to see anything happen to our team...but if it meant getting rid of Clinton and Biden...well, I guess I could live with it. Now if Obama, would join them for a beer during the game.
At this point, I'd say pull our troops home from everywhere, drill for oil in Alaska, put barbed wire, land mines and 50' walls around the borders...and to hell with the rest of the world. Oh...and keep a hundred nukes pointed at every country that might attack Israel.
It aint soccer, it's proper football. Football = controlling a ball with your foot. But of course, everything Americans don't like or understand is crap and just wrong.
Who gives a flip about soccer? It isn't big in America for a reason-- we don't like it. Why should tax payers protect these people? They need to hire private security. Sheesh!
Speak for yourself, Lisa. Don't say "we" when you are certainly not speaking for me and a LOT of other Americans. Soccer is a cool game at the professional level -- players run the field non-stop and aggressively score and block. Football is a total snoozefest compared to soccer. Of course, you're so narrow-minded you've already decided not only what you like (without ever watching a professional World Cup series), but you've also taken it upon your own irrelevant and nonthinking self to declare what everyone else in America likes. Stuff it.
I do think Federal security is going a bit overboard but there have been many incidents of violent attacks against soccer teams, particularly at World events.
WAIT!!! Hasn't the world become Heaven on Earth since obama became elected??? Everyones loves us now...why the protection?
LOL!!, Nobody Cares about this *******s in the WCup, They are not even followed by anyone!!.
You have to love the way the important people—Biden, Obama and Clinton—are standing in front of all the players and coaches.
Why is protection needed in the rainbow nation?
Is it not the case that its all rainbows & smiles in the new ZA?
Have to love Americans proving their ignorance! Why don't Americans like futbol? Because they are too lazy and overweight to play, so they celebrate a game like football, where there are 300lb fat line men, and the play stops every 10 seconds to take a minute break. But they just think other countries play it due to financial reasons...last time I checked, you could play American football with the same equipment as futbol, although you know, other countries aren't fat and lazy. Get over yourselves, any wonder the rest of the world hates America, look at its citizens and you'll see why. Oh, and shhh....your ignorance is showing.
NO WONDER they've agreed to give the team protection...they're goin with them!!
Cant make it to the AZ border to evaluate the situation, but hey!! it's a GAME!!
Go USA !!!! if some of you dont like soccer big deal !!! we do ...and I love the USA go USA go USA go USA .... lets get those brits !!!
Britney Spears might miss a lot more 'X Factor' auditions ... because she can! Simon Cowell gave Brit damn near free reign in order to sign the pop star to that $15 million deal -- but is it backfiring? We'll tell you what peeps on the set are saying.Plus, Chris Jericho's…
