Mad About Soccer?

The U.S. soccer team has once again made it to the World Cup, the international equivalent of the Super Bowl of Soccer. While hoping to quiet the snickers of more traditionally soccer-crazed countries like Brazil and Portugal, the American team's crushing loss to the Czech Republic in their first game may have set the stage for an early exit this year. We'll look at why there's so much buzz about our team, if the soccer bug has caught on in the States...and how our country fits into a soccer landscape that is dominated by European culture and tradition. Laura's guests are Dave Wasser, Soccer Historian who maintains an online archive of soccer videos and who also runs the North American Soccer League Alumni Association and Seamus Malin, long time Soccer Analyst for ABC and ESPN Sports.
