The Super Bowl of soccer, The World Cup is actually the only true football championship, since that is indeed what soccer is called in every country but the United States. World Cup quotes demonstrate that the cup is not just a championship, but a source of national pride. The best of the best are called upon to represent their country. The winner not only gets bragging rights, but elevates their nation to the world stage, making the World Cup one of the most important sporting events ever to take place, outside of perhaps the Olympics. And they manage to draw millions of spectators even without a glitzy halftime show by MTV. Imagine that!

"With the Turin Olympics and the World Cup coming, everyone knows that televisions are being sold by the truckload ... Windows (new operating system) Vista will debut in the later part of the year, so people will want to trade up their computers. It is not a bad situation at all."

I don't think there will be a problem with the manager and, even if there was, the players are striving for the same goal ? to bring the World Cup home. I don't think it will have a negative effect. It will have a positive one."

"It finally seems to have dawned on some of the England players that, if they are to beat the likes of Brazil, Germany, Argentina and Italy in a World cup, they need an iron manager to forge them into a team, not a nice guy to massage their inflated egos. The gooey love affair between coaches and players is coming to its inevitable end. Does Eriksson have answers? There are times when you have to wonder if this vague, distant albeit charming figure is really all that interested in finding them."

"Whenever you get the chance to represent your country in a World Cup, it's a great honor. It's a chance to show the world what you've got. I'm looking forward to it. I do wish, though, that I would be able to stay here and play with D.C. a little bit more, because this is an important stretch for us right now."

"It'll be nice to represent the club at the World Cup and it's just nice to know your future too, and that the manager knows that I'd like to stay here. I like where the club's going and it's a great place to play your football. There's really nowhere else I'd like to go."
