At least the US Women are really good at Soccer (football for everyone else)

It must be because women generally take soccer more serious here than men, who play plenty of other sports like Baseball, Basketball, Football, even hockey first. But the US Womens Soccer team must be pretty good year in year out. They've never finished lower than 3rd, and apparently have now made the finals for the 4th time outta 7 world cups.
