Jimmy wasn't sure about this whole athletic supporter thing anymore. The Cup was starting to rub him the wrong way.

Yes please. That would help. :) And Sara! What's going on with you encouraging the competition? How about some team support here?

I didn't know what I was doing at the time! But I can't deny the sheer intelligence behind this caption. Lane simply vanquished me this week . . . true story.

The thing about Lane winning though is that it is always bonafide. This caption is awesome and I am not suprised that is won.

Jimmy suddenly realizes that he left his big foam finger in the car.

A few months ago, I was at Michaels (the craft store), and I noticed that they sell big foam fingers--so you can personalize your own, I guess. I was more than a little tempted to take one home with some glitter glue and pipe cleaners, but alas, common sense prevailed...

Why are the 2 main craft stores in Utah named after men? (Michaels and Roberts) That's weird.

Mike felt his fan support was not strong enough to help Team USA. He needed more energy. In an act of desparation, he attempted to give himself a blessing.

In all the excitement, Sam's toupee had flipped up and had almost blown away. Geez he hoped no one had seen that.

By excitement, do you mean when the USA fan 3 rows ahead of him mooned the referee? (was there any other excitement in that game?)

All of the usa fans should have mooned the ref. That punk cost us the game!!

Lance Sherwood, a CTR "A" teacher from Springville, UT, is visibly disappointed when, trying to lead the crowd in a sing-a-long of "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes," he accidentally interlocks his fingers during the "Head" portion and falls terribly behind.

This poor sucker was told that the US Olympic soccer team would be scrimmaging at the Stadium of Fire. When he saw images of Taylor Hicks, American Idol, and Lee Ann Womack on the jumbo-tron...he instantly got nauseous, closed his eyes, and prayed for death.

It's good that the USA lost; when the europeans lift their arms in desperation, it's stinky. Ergo, our loss makes the world less stinky.

The Experiment - to see how long he could keep his eyes closed and not miss any action in the game
The Result - once he realized that soccer fans will cheer for movement of any kind of the field, his eyes were closed for the rest of the game

For as little as a $0.25 monthly donation, you too can make the difference in the life of a pathetic U.S. soccer fan. In return for your support, you will receive a personal letter and photo detailing your sponsored fan's most recent experience with self-inflicted disappointment.

Once again Johnny's characteristic overconfidence had brought him into the depths of humility. Losing the bet wasn't so bad . . . he had run across fields in only his skivvies plenty of times before. It only now occurred to him that he was wearing his good old lucky, thread-bare and barely-there Superman Underoos.

US flag wrist band $100.00
US team scarf $200.00
2 tickets to Germany to watch team play $1600.
2 tickets to the game $2400.
Total cost of watching the team lose in Germany: $4300
I guess it really is true, Mastercard is for everything.
If only I had used my mastercard to pay off the ref.

It's from Henry V (you know--Shakespeare). It's from the end of the St. Crispin's Day speech--morale was low, and the king gave this big motivational speech to the troops the night before a critical battle (which they ended up winning) that led to the joining of the crowns of England and France.
What this has to do with Americans sucking at soccer is beyond me. :)

One day America will be great at soccer and there will be many bandwagon fans that climb aboard. I say the glory should go to the players and fans that stand amid defeat today, not because they love soccer, but because they love America and stand by her. -- In a nutshell, that's it.
