Save some of the soccer sympathy for us in Canuckland. One of the reasons we take hockey so seriously is because we cannot win at what the world calls football. [img]smile.gif[/img] Currently ranked 90+, only qualified for the World Cup once (in the eighties) where we didn't score a goal. Boo-hoo-hoo. On the plus side, we did win the CONCACAF tournament a few years ago (by some miracle). Our best player (Owen Hargraves) plays for England! I don't blame him. Tomas Radzinski alone cannot lead us to the promised land.
At least the women's team is successful, and displays a high level of skill.
