Default How did the U.S. Soccer Facebook group get 5000 members in three days?

I just noticed it had 38,000 members like 3 days ago. I just checked it today it has over 45,000. It was growing steady at like a few hundred per week. We haven't really done anything recently...wierd

A close loss to Slovakia in front of six thousand fans will do that for you!!!

On a similar note, Landon Donovan's Facebook has grown exponentially in the last few days -- I guess from the hype of the draw (2 days ago from this post). On Thursday, Dec. 3, the day before the WC draw, he had something like 8,200 fans. Yesterday (Dec. 5, the day after the draw) it was 35,000! Today it's 41,105! Go Landon go!

Update: In the 2 minutes it took to post this, I refreshed Landon's Facebook page & the number is now 41,226. It's growing by the minute!
