Body paint and teddy bears, that's what America does.

They also play some pretty good soccer. At least, they have through two games at the World Cup, securing a win over Ghana and nearly a second against Portugal on Sunday. 

Ultimately, the U.S. allowed a late tally from Silvestre Varela off a magnificent cross from Cristiano Ronaldo and ended up with a 2-2 draw. Wesley Matthews, the Portland Trail Blazers wing who got all geared up for the game, was surely disappointed.

To that point, however, he appeared to be having a blast.
