    Source: Obama catches US team's World Cup match on Air Force 1 en route to overnight in Minneapolis


    In an interview Thursday with ABC's George Stephanopoulos, who traveled with the president, Obama said the World Cup has even had a slight impact on how the U.S. conducts foreign policy.

    "We had elements — which I won't detail — of our foreign policy that have been shaped around the World Cup," Obama told Stephanopoulos. "Phone calls, meetings, initiatives we had to think about."

      I think it's cool looking at all the flags and figuring out which belongs to which country.

        Tim Howard won my respect yesterday. But this is still hilarious.

            Now that the U.S. lost to Belgium I'm curious to see if interest here in the World Cup will evaporate.

                      Before it all began I called Germany or Netherlands to take it. Lo' and behold, 3 teams left, including Germany and Netherlands. I should really start betting.
