I don't recall USA ever being so crazy about soccer before. I like soccer. I played soccer in high school, matter of a fact I was the first ever girl to get to play soccer at my highschool, maybe the area and my parents had to fight about it. I almost did soccer as a profession. And I ruined it. But people back then were not that into soccer.it seems like a of a sudden this playoff is as big as the superbowl to people and the media. What happened to change that interest because I don't recall is being soccer crazy even just last year.
