| Congrats with the win! What’s it like to play football (make no mistake, soccer isn’t the word) in America? Did you follow the whole Beckham hype? Do you have a favorite team? Do you see anything of the European football? Champions League? |

Soccer is great! I played once on a team, and we stank. We won mabye 1 game out of 4 seasons.  
But really it was only a few of us that tried to win. The others played half heartedly. I wasn’t bad for a new, unexperienced player. I have only played a bit with friends but I still love the game!  As far as watching it goes, I can’t tell you much. I know the Mexicans are good at soccer. (very good!) |
There is a power in this world beyond any of us, and Jesus is that power and The Savior.
 this is my attempt to look cool.

You mean the most popular game ever. There are worse sports out there, such as pillow-fighting and baseball, and better ones such as Karate and Football.
Hey, I never said I disliked Soccer. We occasionally hip up a game in our back yard. |

Popcorn is not gooey like fat, and also not crunchy like potato chips, but crispy like lettuce which makes it a healthy snack.  |

Hehe, see as an American I’m forced to use the word "soccer", otherwise all my fellow countrymen would be completely confused.
It’s fun to play in the US, it’s definitely not the biggest sport here but it seems to be growing in popularity.

Nope, unfortunately I’ve been out of the loop on pretty much all soccer news.

Well, in the World Cup 2006, my favorite teams were the US, England, and Germany. I also loved watching Ukraine, they were extremely fun to watch and they were definitely my favorite under-dog team.

Naw, I can’t because A) I don’t really watch TV and B) I get like 4 local channels on TV but that’s all.
