Default "I believe that we will win!"

USA's 'I believe that we will win' chant can inspire them into World Cup quarter finals? | Mail Online

This chant has a very interesting history according to a very recent report by ESPN. http://www.espnfc.com/fifa-world-cup...y-of-i-believe

The last World Cup in 2010, I believe I was house-sitting for a retired CIA Analyst/Lt. Commander of a US Naval ship. He and his retired realtor/CIA analyst wife traveled a lot. I would go to Honeymoon Island beach or some other Clearwater/Tarpon Springs/Palm Harbor area park in the mornings and then watch some of the WC games in the afternoons.

I thought so too!! Coming out of a tougher devision, led me to think they could win!!

I was wrong, and the USA goes for another try, in four years.

In my book they did win, they won a huge amount of respect. The rest of the world has been playing this game for hundreds of years, we are new to it! Great bunch of guys with real heart.
