PrintI don't care if you're only interested in Nebraska football, you had to be moved by what happened a few days ago with Landon Donovan's goal to move the USA in the World Cup Knock Out Round.
If you can't be moved by this, I don't know what to do for you because it's just pretty damned cool. Note that first set of fans:
It's the USA vs Ghana in the Knockout Round - lose and we're done. This is time to note that the USA hasn't won back-to-back World Cup games in 80 years. The USA is ranked 14th, Ghana ranked 32nd. A win, and we're in the quarterfinal against either Uruguay or South Korea.
Consider this an open thread. Believe it or not, I probably won't get to see this game. It's soccer jamboree day for our club, I have one kid playing and two kids coaching, and I'm hoping like hell someone has a way of letting us know what's going on.

LET'S GO USA!
I like our chances. Ghana hasn’t scored without the help of a PK this tournament…we avoid the stupid mistakes and I think we’ll be just fine.
great
I get a break between games, and it’s bloody halftime.
down 0-1….. poop. let’s pull this out, eh….

Chills...
and I even hate soccer. Great video.
We lost though. Dammit, oh well…one step closer to opening kickoff I guess.
