I wonder what would happen if the USA won the World Cup. Of course I'm not suggesting that we have any real chance at it this year, I have no clue. However, the best the USA has ever done was third place at the first World Cup in 1930. Given that the USA is a nation of self-perceived winners, I wonder if winning the World Cup might make US residents more interested in international football and, ideally via extension, the international community.
