21-3 at half time. It's like the Pats only being up by that score against a very good college team; not impressive.

In many threads, the Euro nation constantly thinks that the NFL is a joke, and rugby is far superior in every way... this makes me think that not very many Euro's care for it.

I don't really give a dang either way, but, it is what it is...

Very true. In all honesty, it was a seriously embarrassing performance by England and a really good one by the US. The improvement will really come when you have a professional league next year.

The US Eagles have improved a lot in recent years - I saw them play a couple of games at the 2003 World Cup, one of which (vs Japan) was the most entertaining I saw at the competition - but in truth this is not a particularly strong US side and England should have beaten them a lot more comfortably than they did.

Props to the Eagles, though. I hope they go on and win a game in the tournament - Tonga being the most likely.
