Already happened, I believe in the last issue (the one with Mike Tyson on the cover), I know it was the same one w/ the article about the US-Korea match at any rate, they had about 4 letters in the section about the newfound respect for soccer, 2 praising it and 2 neanderthal soccer-bashers...one guy said "3 things the rest of the world loves that the US can do without--socialism, the Metric system, and soccer".  Well he's right on 2 parts anyway...
