The American Samoa Uprising Continues

If youd heard of the American Samoa national football team before this week, theres likely only one reason: Australia. A few years back, they took a beating that would leave even a ginger stepchild quaking in their boots at 31-0. Theyre also the joint-worst team in all the world. But in a successful effort to stave off symmetry, they won what was to be #31 earlier this week, then drew against the Cook Islands today in their WCQ, keeping them undefeated in two. An unlikely invitee to Brazil in 2014, but a great story.

Theyre also co-ed, which is likely unique in WCQ. And judging by the lack of hot pants on the highlights, Sepps yet to intervene.
