okay, as predicted, the u.s. were beaten handily… but they played their little hearts out, refused to quit, and left it all out there on the pitch.

and as j pointed out, the u.s. scored *2* tries against south africa. whereas england (the defending world champions) scored none.

the u.s. acquitted themselves well. they earned the respect of all the bigger, badder teams, played hard for every last second of their matches, and can go home with their heads held high.

isn’t that all you can ask of any team?
