The 2010 FIFA World Cup is just around the corner – and the whole world has been waiting for this… and this time, that just may include the good ol’ U-S-of-A, too. Sounds like the perfect time for a caption challenge, featuring the FIFA World Cup!
Due to some exciting and competitive performances in recent tournaments, the country has rallied around USA soccer to some degree – and therefore, there’s excitement brewing for the red, white and blue headed into this year’s tournament, being held in South Africa.
Therefore, to celebrate the World Cup tournament – which starts up in just a few days (on June 11th) – The Wife Hates Sports would like to present another caption challenge.
This time around, you get a special double dose – featuring two of the most ridiculous and hilarious soccer-related images that we could find on the internet.
Here are the images (below) – and here’s your chance to generate the most creative, funny, or unique caption possible for one – or both of them. Either that, or just pitch in your initial thoughts on USA’s chances in this year’s World Cup.
Have at it, friends – and as always, thanks for reading The Wife Hates Sports!

A Federal Appellate Court rules in favor of Bonds. The Justice Dept has now spent in excess $11 million on this case and they’ve not indicted anyone in the case . Greg Anderson , Bonds’ trainer still refuses to implicate Bonds. Isn’t it now time to stop flogging a dead horse ?

I’m an expat Brit living here in the US and even I am not enamored with the English side in this World Cup . They’re light on attack and way too heavily relying on their midfield players.
I do expect them to make to at least the quarter finals. Beyond that who knows ?

Maybe they’re pushing for the nut crunching to be a new olympic sport some day… or not.

Wow, if you’re marketing SportsChump on a hammock, well…. then you realize where the logo has to be right? Just asking.
Well, I was about to market SportsChump banana hammocks but it look like this guy beat me to it.

Nut crunching is this meant to be new sport ?
Brokeback Mountain ain’t got nothin’ on this !

Lanchumpster–
Ha ha, nice. I’m not sure which one I like better of the two.
Chris REV–
what nothing for the second one? C’mon now!
Jared,
Yeah, I was not going to go down the predictions road this soon… if I do any of that, it would be closer to this weekend, when the tournament starts up.

I didn’t see anything like that (at least on the soccer field) when I was in Germany for the 2006 World Cup. Those are downright raunchy! I was hoping you would have a score prediction for USA vs. England.
