I read about it on yahoo they say we always get 2nd to Japan because we are a bunch of nobody's playing really. Imagine f any NFL player played in these games if it was an All NFL Crap Team

[Slim-Rob]

[slorch]

john mackovic is coach. 2nd place is miraculous!

[stevefoxsc]

now japan, may not be known for football. But those Japanese people take a lot of pride into anything they do, they will work and bust there smart ***** off like no one. I wouldn't underestimate any team just cause their not american. Look at recent teams for any sports remember America used to dominate. Now they get dominated.

Plus think if they got all those sumo wrestlers in on it. Put a little Ichiro behind them, maybe dice-K to throw the ball and ba-bam. You got yourselves a great team.

This thread just did a cannonball into the deep end of political incorrectness.

and the pool was empty...:eek:

[Firebird]

how is it political incorrectness?

Please tell me you are joking.....

[K-Rock]

I think the tournament is great. Getting people from around the world to play football is important. The NBA is changing because International players now have a chance to come in and start.

NFL teams may eventually draft some International talent. I think this is great for the game of football.

Wish ESPN or NFL Network would show the games.

Please tell me you are joking.....

yeah i am...or am i?

[svhorns]

we beat Korea 77-0... Aggy might know a little something about that score...

http://wc2007.info/777/game4_rpt_e.html

Rushing, passing, and kick returnsÅ\the United States players went max from its debut game in the IFAF World Championships, showing the fans at the rainy Kawasaki Stadium what they are capable of.
The homeland of American football overwhelmed Korea, also a first-timer of the tourney, in any aspect on the gridiron with a 77-0 rout in Pool 2 action on Tuesday night.
I was pleased with the focus of our team at the beginning of the game,'' Team USA head coach John Mackovic said after the game. We didn't know exactly what we were expecting. We were uncertain how we'd be in this first game.''
The abusive game by the U.S., however, began at the very first play. Kickoff returner Bobby Awrey exhibited a spectacular touchdown with just nine seconds entering the contest.
There was a lot of adrenaline,'' Awrey said. The middle wedge did a great job blowing up a hole. I then went to the outside and got great blocks downfield. As players, we were real excited to come here and play the first game. We are very pleased with the result of the game.''
The flashy play by Awrey ignited the mighty U.S. team, which eventually ended up scoring touchdowns after touchdowns throughout the game.


Team USA recorded 266 yards in total offense and 11 touchdowns overall, while Korea could not even gain a first down and ended up with minus 31 yard in its attack.
The U.S.'s 77 points is the second highest points scored by a team to Mexico, which had 89 points against Finland 89-0 in a June 27, 1999, game in the 1st World Championship.
Running back Wendell Johnson had the most conspicuous numbers, racking up 82 yards in rushing, followed by Kyle Kasperbauer with 55 yards and a TD.
Former Texas Christian University quarterback Jeff Ballard started the game. Ballards, who was an NFL Draft prospect in April, completed four passes out of five, throwing for 58 yards and a TD. Backup and former Arizona signal-caller Adam Austin came in afterwards instead of Ballard.
We showed our surprising speed tonight,'' Mackovic said. We have not showed that kind of speed before tonight.''
Meanwhile, it was too tough a test for Korea, which lost to Germany 32-2 on Sunday.
At the post-game news conference, the coach and players could not do anything but mourning.
We were honored to play against the motherland of the sport, the United States,'' Korea head coach Katsuji Ibaraki said. We wanted to go out there and try what we can do. But once the game started, unlike in our game against Germany, they were by far superior to us in any aspects of the game including the offense, defense and even kicking game, not only in the physical ability.''
After all, Team USA held one of the biggest routs in history of the World Championships in its initial game.
But it doesn't put its guards off yet. The next game against Germany on Thursday will be a battle for advancing t the final, and it won't be as easy as Tuesday's game.
Awrey said that his team doesn't underestimate Germany, whose players have experience and size.
It will be a very difficult challenge for us,'' Awrey said. We will definitely have our hands full in preparing for this game.''

So I was wondering exactly how the USA scored 77 points on 266 yards of offense, so I found the box score. Here's the scoring breakdown:

1 Kickoff return
1 Punt Block return
1 Interception return
1 Fumble recovery
2 Punt returns
4 Rushing
1 Passing

The USA scored in just about every way imaginable.

Full box score if you want to see all the stats (http://wc2007.info/777/stats/stats04.html)

[CCDawg]

So...the USA won the Gold if anybody cares.
