I took one last look at espn.com before I left work tonight. I was truly surprised by what I saw. The centerpiece carousel item was a soccer story.
How awesome is that!? Here 101 days before the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, the stories are starting to roll in. I haven't been that excited in a while. The story was more a listing of the top 50 players than a story. I'm not sure who was polled, but I thought the rankings were fairly accurate.
Heck, I even had a conversation at work about soccer. I think some of my coworkers might even come around to soccer when the World Cup gets started.
Anyway. Great to feel like the world's sport is getting a bit more publicity here in the U.S. I think it's only going to get better.
