Team USA!!!

This morning I had the wonderful privilege of watching the USA vs. Algeria World Cup game.  Little did I know it would turn into two hours of wondering if my heart was going to stop - it was so exciting.  I was a little worried since Findley couldn't play because he had received two yellow cards, but with Altidore, Demerit, and Donovan on your team, how can one go wrong?  Of course the United Status couldn't play a game without having a bogus disallowed goal, but that's what makes our team so amazing.  Not to mention the yellow card given to Beasley in the second half because of his invisible hand ball.  As the game was about to end and we were still tied, I'm not going to lie, I was getting a little angry because I knew that the US could win the game!  Sure enough, in the second minute of stoppage time, veteran Landon Donovan worked his magic and scored an easy goal against Algeria.  I literally screamed and jumped up and down in my living room, which probably seemed crazy to the neighbors because it was 10 o'clock in the morning, but hey, anything for Team USA!  Can't wait for the game against Ghana on Saturday!  GO USA!!!!
