Tim Howard, newly instated 'US Secretary for Defense' and his comrade in arms, Clint Dempsey, received a phonecall from Barack Obama yesterday to thank them for their valiant efforts at the World Cup.
Howard in particular was showered with praise from by the US President, who declared that soccer was his 'first sport.' It's a very American phonecall but sure that's why we love them...
I believe!
