Don't think anyone did. Great for the US fans, not great for the game. Japan is not their usually totally controlled selves.

I don't follow soccer, and made the mistake of calling my folks today. My mother pretty much hung up on me. I guess I'll watch the news so I know when it's over, so I can dare to call again.

That was good soccer. I enjoyed it immensely. Women's soccer is the one sport I can watch and not notice the difference in play between the men's and women's version. Baseball, they play softball, Basketball they are relative midgets with no slam dunking, Football, lingerie league, yup, I notice the difference, now soccer, it may not be quite as fast, or the women may not be quite as strong, but it all looks just like men's when scaled down to the TV.

Women's soccer is struggling world wide to convince fans that their is some parity, some hope for other teams. It has been difficult for teams to get funding. It's been not too bad a tournament that way, as some African teams have really stepped up and shown some good stuff. But this was the same finalists as last time, and the U.S. Waxing Japan does not show parity. |
