    #Iceland = 350,000 people. USA = 330,000,000 people. How maddening that they qualified -- and are a better team! -- than @USASoccer #goVikings

        But, good for them, right? With all due respect, the rest of the world has heard the US say they are “the greatest” more times than we can count. As a Canadian, I’m proud to celebrate talent globally🌎🌍🌏 game on!⚽️

        What makes it even more remarkable is that Iceland qualified through Europe where the competition is, well, let's just say a hell of a lot better than what the US had to get through.

        Hi Mr. Toobin, I am tempted to use an analogy here. Just like the US criminal justice system is broken, so is USA soccer with their pay for play system. In Iceland they have a criminal justice system that rehabilitates instead of punishes and everyone can play soccer.

        It's because they treat their players seriously, free healthcare, all kinds of good socialized stuff. :)

        Maybe is USA did a better job with immigrant children, we’d be better suited to compete in soccer on the world’s stage. So much potential talent is unrealized.
