The confederations cup plays the winners of each continental champion. Our Gold Cup gets us in. The tournament is seen as a test of the RSA's World Cup capabilities. We will have a different president, but we will still have a troop presence. We should have arranged a game with Afghanistan and Iraq a long time ago for diplomatic reasons. But one of Iraq's players will say he wants us out. Also, our players acquit themselves very well but so many Americans think we are at war "against Iraq" that there would surely be an international incident. I bet South Africans will back Iraq to the hilt. Sad stuff, really. The most interesting angle on Iraq’s victory is that they will play the US in South Africa next year.

Benfica is a good team, but the Portuguese league is a good stepping stone to get used to European soccer. I was worried he would go to England, Spain or Italy and flounder because, while he's got tons of potential, he's still really young and raw. I think this move will give him the chance to develop. And yes, I do read too much so my brain is probably already warped. Keddy - I think Adu’s move is great.

A good fit? What should his role be? What will his role be? Will Freddy be able to follow Lebron and live up to the hype? It's hard to do, but it can be done? I anxiously await your words of wisdom o soccer sage. Random Question #2: You ever fear you read too much? It might warp your brain man ever further DK.
