Something to make it interesting

So, with a victory over Ireland the Bleu et Blanc et Rouge has secured itself a spot in the World Cup. Last week, the world's up-and-coming soccer powerhouse (the Red, White and Blue) punched their ticket with a win at Crew Stadium (Stade de Crew) over Mexico. What do you say we make the 2006 tourney a little interesting with a wager on who will remain in the competition longer - the U.S. or France?

If the American soccer team ("futbol side" for you continentals) sticks it out longer, then the American branch of the Weaver clan will send you a quintessentially American "decoration" which must be displayed for the remainder of the year in a prominent place.

If, on the other hand, the French stay around longer, then you may send a worthwhile French decoration to be conspicuously placed.

What say you?
