So you haven't noticed the multi million dollar investments in the game in USA, or the high profile (look at us and take us seriously) signings of some of the most well know footballers such as David Beckham?

Or the fact that your country qualified for this year's world cup?

OR that you have actually BID to host a future WORLD CUP

"U.S. committee hires P.R. firm Fleishman-Hillard

USA. Fleishman-Hillard International Communications has been hired by the USA Bid Committee to oversee its public relations and communications programs in its efforts to secure the 2018 or 2022 World Cup.

Fleishman-Hillard, headquartered in St. Louis with 31 offices in the United States and 80 worldwide, has a long history of involvement in soccer.

?Representing the USA Bid Committee, U.S. Soccer and our national effort to bring the world?s greatest sporting event to the United States is both a great privilege and a high responsibility for Fleishman-Hillard,? said Dave Senay, president and CEO of Fleishman-Hillard. ?We share the absolute commitment of the U.S. Soccer family and the Bid Committee to return the FIFA World Cup tournament to the United States. We look forward to getting down to work.?



AND MOST IMPORTANTLY

That your WOMEN are ranked number 1 in the world in this sport

(Your men are ranked 14th btw.)


So maybe it is time to crawl out from under that rock that has been keeping you out the loop, and switch on a news channel occasionally?
