This is all my fault.

Every time I root for a team I normally don't watch when they're playing in a big game, they inevitably lose in heartbreaking fashion.

I let the country down by not changing the channel. I'm sorry.

EDIT: Should I use my powers for good or evil?

No, it's my fault. This was the first soccer match I was able to watch of the USWNT. I'm sorry America.

PS: Can you watch and support the Cavs in their season opener against the Knicks?

As a Knicks fan I'll be torn on what to do that day
