U.S. coach Bob Bradley understands magnitude of World Cup match, plans pep talk before Ghana game
RUSTENBURG, South Africa - When Bob Bradley was an assistant soccer coach at the University of Virginia, his office in Charlottesville was situated next to the visitors' locker room for basketball.
And so coaches and assistant coaches from different sports would gather inside this claustrophobic room and do some serious eavesdropping during halftime on the visiting ACC stars of the day: Dean Smith, Jim Valvano, Lefty Dreisell and Mike Krzyzewski.
"Not to spy for information, but to hear how these guys went about their business," Bradley said.
There were pep talks then, good ones, and now Saturday Bradley himself says he is likely to deliver a short, rousing speech to his own team, before one of the biggest matches he has ever coached. The U.S. faces Ghana, the last African team standing, a difficult but winnable second-round game. The winner moves on to a World Cup quarterfinal against yet another beatable opponent yet to be determined.
There is a sense of possibility these days around Bradley, around these players, that is beyond the short soccer memory of most Americans. And Bradley, who is often perceived as a chronically stoic man, is poised to carpe diem and rev up the rhetoric.
"In certain moments, you speak passionately," Bradley said Friday to a small group of American reporters after his press conference at the Royal Bafokeng Stadium. "You do it in the right moment, in words to be able to put everyone on the same page. The library in my head is pretty good. I never have to write out my speeches."

Movie Talk: Harry Potter Fans Deemed Too Heavy for 'Wizarding World' Ride
Most people remember the feeling of not being tall enough to ride an amusement park ride, but some would-be riders of the signature attraction at Universal Studios' new "Wizarding World of Harry Potter" theme park in Orlando are being turned away because of their girth. The ride, "Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey," employs individual restraints to keep each guest tucked in to his or her seat, but the restraints aren't large enough to accommodate heavier riders.
