US Gets Screwed (well also the Dutch)


albeit in soccer. A very tough draw for the American as Gutsy will explicate. For those unaware of the great sport sometimes called Futbol non-Americano only the top two teams from each draw make it to the next round. That means team USA will have to knock off either Italy or Czech Republic in order to advance (at which point they would probably have to play Brazil). A rough road for sure. The Dutch (better known as citizens of Netherlands) not only have to overcome FIFA rules that they play in wooden shoes but must overcome an equally hard draw in facing Argentina, Ivory Coast (Cote D'Ivore) and Serbia. I demand a recount.
