As If Anybody In America Cares, The U.S. Made It Into The World Cup Tournament. For those who are unfamiliar, the World Cup would be the Planet's Biggest Sporting Event if only it involved a sport. Since it involves soccer, it's the Planet's Biggest Something Else. Most of the world thinks this is a big deal.
People commit suicide over the results.
Actually, it's just a big-ass soccer tournament. It's exactly the same as the one we have here at Ft. The World Cup is sorta like the Chicago riots, but without the sportsmanship. The United States is in the World Cup, although no one here really cares. Maybe after the Klingons arrive.
