Ok I've really never followed this soccer game so people please help me out a little. I'm staying at a beach house in a few weeks with nothing but soccer fans so I need a little info.
Here's what I know :
When I played that 1 year when I was 5 they gave us oranges at the half
I met some guy named Tatu ? that played for the Dallas Sidekicks ? a long time ago in the indoor league. I think he was pretty good. Is that league still around ?
I think Brazil & Argentina are the powerhouses ?
Usually if you go by 1 name your pretty good ? Pele , Rolando & and a Maradona ?
That Beckman guy plays , but is no longer very good... Is he still in America ?
I've heard of Freddy Adu because he signed realy young ( like 13) and some guy from East Texas is really good ( saw that on espn)
I've got to meet Mia Hamm a few times because she grew up in Wichita Falls and she gave me a autographed UNC hat and a autograph of Lexi Laulis ( something like that ) so I've heard of him and know what he looks like
Other than that I don't know anything
Can someone just explain to me how the World Cup works ? Have all the teams already qualified or do they have to have " play in " games ?
Thanks very much in advance. If this oil spill gets to Fl,AL I'll probably just be stuck at the sports bars & house watching this so I need a little info to sound somewhat informed
