What I like is seeing players that really take the whole concept of the World Cup to heart, and your Captain did that for me today.
However, I think sometimes the USA as a whole need to tone it down a bit as the humility aspect would lead to much more empathy from fans of other countries.Witness Cameroon in previous tournaments. Their desire was not based on a stringent belief that they could win, more a belief that they could cause an upset and enjoy it at the same time.
If you can somehow get that you would have more fans wanting you to do well.
As a Yank and a City fan, the true footballing supporters here always support the national side. I was infuriated with Americans who were cheering for England in the USA/England match. My belief is you support YOUR NATION! I'm an American first...of course I noticed 2 of them were also Un*t*d fans too....go figure...the wankers
