Yeah....I think the loss to Brazil last week flipped a switch......Their pride was questioned and challenged. They have answered the last two games.

the worst part though is that 90% of the US population didn't even know what the Confederations Cup was until last night, hell, I'm still sure they have no idea what it is now.

I've watched every game so far, it's really a miracle we've made it this far. I still can't believe we got that +6 gain on the last day to make it in, crazy. Brazil and SA are tied 0-0. I'd like USA's chances wayyy more if SA could pull it off.

South Africa beating Brazil would be like if the Pittsburgh Pirates or Detroit Lions had won the championship last year. Or a #16 seed in the NCAA Tournament making it all the way to the championship game.
If South Africa is able to hold this score until Penalty shoot-out, they have a chance because in Penalty kicks anything can happen but the moment Brazil scores this game is over.

People become fans of teams only because they won a championship. In Europe and even South America if you're a fan a team you're a fan of that team for life win or lose.

I don't know where you are at but there are a lot of posers there. I've liked the Skins and Pats since I've been 5. That won't ever change. Almost everyone around where I live is a huge Ravens fan....I live around Baltimore. Everyone I've ever known from Pittsburg has been a huge Steelers fan. Philly.....huge Eagle fans...... Almost everyone I know hates the Patriots btw.....And I hate the Cowboys more than Satan.

In Europe and even South America if you're a fan a team you're a fan of that team for life win or lose. If USA had European talent playing in the states, people would be interested, no doubt. I can't watch MLS because the talent is so shitty, and I have a tough time following soccer that's in a different continent.. So really the only time I watch soccer is when USA's national team is playing.

Those are called the bandwagon fans, but they don't depict all of America. I've been a diehard Houston fan for life, win or lose. The only team I care about however for Soccer is the USA National team, and it's been like that since the first few World Cups I've watched. It has nothing to do with anything about winning championships since obviously the USA doesn't do that in soccer, lol
