I have soccer on TV pretty often (EPL/MLS, etc.), the kids will watch occasionally, but never show a ton of interest. Today, they intently watched the extra time/PK's, and immediately wanted to go outside and play soccer.

I thought that was a testament to the emotion and guts displayed in that match. Two kids under 6 were inspired by it, that's exactly what the U.S. Soccer (and hockey) program needs to happen.
