The US team have a nickname but due to national security reasons I cannot reveal it. However, due to the Freedom of Information Act, it will become declassified in 20 years...

It seems like we should be the Eagles or something. After all, that's supposed to be our national symbol. Oh well. Maybe I'll propose it before the next World Cup. :shrug:

The US has been calling itself Team USA as a nick name which is a bit unoriginal...

We don't really do nicknames here...not to the extent that they do elsewhere

Well, at least not nicknames for our national teams. Team USA is incredibly lame. I am embarrassed.
I'm gonna go with the Flying Eagles.

USA don't have a nickname because they won't be in it long enough for it to be used!
