A few yrs ago, I worked for a company that was owned and headquartered in the Netherlands though I worked at an office here in the states.
Of course our President was a Dutchman (the president's always were and have been for the 20 plus yrs this Dutch company has owned the place where I used to work.
I had never cared for or followed soccer much, the World Cup etc... but for those of you who do and know something about it, the team from the Netherlands is usually very good.
The employees over there and the few stateside who were actually Dutch were huge fans and we couldn't help but learn a bit about it and root for the Dutch.
