Amongst all the hype about South Africa 2010 and Brazil 2014, some soccer news got lost.
It seems there is an officially sanctioned FIFA world tournament that starts next week!
And, yes, USA is in. Of course I'm speaking about something called the "FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup Rio de Janeiro 2007."
I don't know who is on our team or what are chances are, but I do remember watching some beach soccer on ESPN years ago and the USA did pretty well --even against Brazil. We had a fat goalie (David Vanole) as our leader and played tough. (RIP David)
Go USA! No one here will be able to watch, but go you boys! Here's the USA team info: here. Do it for the Vanole!
