World Cup 2006
Not sure how much stuff I’ll be getting done with the World Cup going on now…
Unfortunately, nobody I have played with or against made the U.S. roster. Nevertheless, I will be rooting for the U.S. on Monday when they face off against the talented Czech Republic. I predict that if the U.S. wins that first match, they will make it to the Quarterfinals again - unless they end up facing Brazil in the Round of 16. Wishful thinking, eh?
Who are you guys rooting for? What are your predictions?
I’m thinking of creating a site for the soccer space. Has anyone done any SEO for a soccer site? It seems like there is some opportunity there…

The US team is too small, I’ve been saying their over rated this year.
I manage a PPC campaign for a soccer retailer. It does very well, and the last 4 weeks conversion rate has doubled (obviously). Generally speaking, the team-related keywords covert well, as opposed to player keywords.
On another note, I played against Brian McBride in high school. He was an SOB to guard. I think he scored 3 goals against us. It was a long time ago, so the details are fuzzy;) I just remember being frustrated.
Let’s hope for a miracle against Italy!

I don’t think the US team is too small… Overrated? Maybe… but not outrageously…
Their first game was definitely a disappointment, but definitely not the end of the US. They did not show their true potential and I think their lineup was all wrong. Hopefully, Arena fixes this before Saturday… Of course, I am hopeful for our US team!
I grew up close to Brian McBride, but he is seven years older than me, so I never got to play with/against him… I can’t imagine having to defend against his headers!
