Hey there is a World Cup in this kind of football too.
Just found this and it looks like the USA is finally sending a team to the World Cup of American Football.

I don't know any of the players but it will be interesting to see how this tournament shakes out.

WTF? I've never heard anything about this. Is it going to be on TV at all? We are going to kill everyone in that thing.

Interesting. I hope there is more news on this so we can keep track of this.
Why hasn't Brockman reported on this?

Yep, no clue who these guys are either... they are all right around 23-24 years old. Must be a bunch of guys just out of college who aren't in any of the other leagues. Either way, we'll go undefeated.

Yeah I am kind of figuring that the US squad should dethrone two time defending World Cup holders Japan.

GO USA!

That's why they win. No other team wants to tackle big almost naked Japanese dudes.

Ah, great point. Their QB probably has 3 days to find an open receiver.

Quick update on the National Team.

The USA won its group and earned a spot in the final with a 77-0 win over Korea Rpublic and a 33-7 win over Germany. They will face the winner of the Japan - Sweden game.

LMAO! 110-7 in the two games. The winner of the Japan/Sweden game is the finals... looks like it will be Japan who beat France 48-0. Sweden only beat them 16-14. Oh and why did S. Korea even send a team? They lost 32-2 and 77-0.
