Then we graduated to dodgeball in the 4th grade.

I seem to recall kick-ball having 4 bases... not 2 goal nets....

decent yes, top no!

they are a good team it seems, not one world class player amongst them though, sometimes you need that bit of magic to turn a game.

Kinda like our 1980 olympic hockey team, right? Well at least they didn't beat the russians or win a gold medal

I did enjoy the 1994 World Cup hosted by the USA though, and watched many games. The tournament had a sad ending though. Sad when the final of the world cup had to be decided by a penalty shootout. I'll never forget the look of devastation when Roberto Baggio missed his. Come back Chris Waddle - all is forgiven!

I attended the Russia vs Sweden game in Pontiac. Saw two penalty kicks, amazing game.
