The US only started 4 white players, not 5. Pulisic and Cameron are the only good players on this team. Bradley is awful now. The rest of the team are mestizo and blacks. The US is even starting an African midfielder in Nagbe GK TIM HOWARD, 3: There wasn't much he could do about the opening...

I'm not sure how I feel about this either Phall. It would be nice to have him up top instead of Eddie Johnson. But at the same time, he was raised his whole life in Iceland so it would seem somewhat mercenary. Although, being born in the U.S. is a lot better than the Blermans who have never...

Donovan's ex-wife was a hot actress. Pretty sure he isn't gay. :)

I never really thought about this until now but it just occurred to me....when do you ever see black players scoring from free kicks? It's always non-black players that are the best free kick takers throughout history. David Beckham Cristiano Ronaldo Andrea Pirlo Juninho Pernambucano Diego...

It's not necessarily a bad thing for Spain to be selling its players. It just means Spanish players are in high demand and that Spain has a better academy system than most countries in Europe. It's actually a highly profitable business model for most teams.....especially Barca. Think how much...

A Designated Player spot for a mediocre England 2nd Division player? Surely, they could have put that to better use on a homegrown academy player (does NYRB have any good academy players coming up?) I looked up Bradley Wright-Philips' Wikipedia page because I've never even heard of this guy...

Haiti vs El Salvador in the Gold Cup. Haitian keeper: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyNbGnMVkrg

I actually shut off the television as soon as I saw the starting lineup. There was no way I'm going to waste 45 minutes of my life watching garbage soccer. But lets say, I'm not the least bit surprised at the big handicapped Nigerian giving up a goal. He's done that his whole career time...

Well to be fair, today's match didn't really "prove" anything. Just like Spain playing Tahiti didn't really teach us anything about any particular player. But I agree with all your points. The 2nd half team today should be starting in the next game. And I think its safe to say Beckerman...

Literally 10 minutes after coming on for Beckerman, Holden scores a sweet goal....LOL.

I could never understand why that wigger Kyle Beckerman keeps getting called up to the US National Team. Then today I found out he's Jewish. No explanation needed now. Right now the U.S. is playing the same Mexican lineup against Belize in the first half and they are struggling to find...

Yes, can someone explain me what's up with the state of tennis in this country? We used to produce some of the best players - Sampras, Agassi, Connors, etc. What happened? I know the rest of the world has gotten better but still....we probably have more tennis players than almost any other...

So....about Bill Hamid who plays for last place DC United. Given his last 2 seasons full of howlers and general stupidity and his terrible performance with the U-23 Olympic Team, one would think he would be one of the last MLS goalkeepers chosen to represent the U.S. But who are we kidding...

USA Mestizos got trashed today by Ghana. You guys will love this. I was looking closer at the U.S. roster and was wondering what kind of background the mulatto DeAndre Yedlin has. His wiki says he was raised by his grandparent (surprise surprise, his black parent abandoned him) "IRA...

LOL....Jones was the worst player on the field. Cameron had the best game of his career last game and Klinsmann starts this idiot? Jones even had a concussion that caused him to miss the last game. Why would you risk injury to a player not fully recovered. Klinsmann's lineup choices are...

Thanks for the BBC transcript Frederic. That was hilarious! :icon_lol: I can't wait to see Uruguay and Spain play the "Super" Eagles.

I love watching Spain play but I think I'm going to root for Uruguay just because I want to see a different country win. The match coming up is going to an epic display of possession soccer. I'm also going to cheer for Tahiti as my 2nd team. I had no idea where Tahiti was so I had to look it...

You really think Eddie Johnson is going to displace Donovan? Actually, the best news is that Cameron played d-mid better than any American in the last 3 years. That means no more Maurice Edu for awhile. The funniest part of the match was seeing Panama's managers. Not only is Panama all...

Oh boy. Spain and Germany were tied 0-0 through 86 minutes. German backline was holding strong. Then in the 82nd minute, Germany brings on Antonio Rudiger :afro: , a Sierra Lione defender (who doesn't look under 21 at all). Four minutes after coming on, Rudiger gets turned inside out by...

Please tell me this cover is a joke. Why is it so ground breaking now when Balotelli is playing as opposed to when Edgar Davids or Thierry Henry were stars? At least Davids and Henry had actual talent. Balotelli is just an overhyped media creation....just like Freddy Adu.

Haha, that was you?? I hope you didn't use your real name? Hey, at least you got a bit fame...albeit in the wrong way. If you were in England, you probably would have gone to jail since they don't have freedom of speech laws.

I'm sure they will they step right into the shoes of great Dutch footballers like Bergkamp, Kluivert, Wilkes and Cruyff :icon_rolleyes: I give it 3 years before Netherlands drops out of the top 20 FIFA rankings. EDIT: I just turned on the England, Italy match and literally within one...

I see France did not qualify. Does anyone have a picture of their most recent U-21 squad? I'm guessing its most subsaharans. I had a friend in college whose last name is Singh. His parents were from Punjabi in India. There were quite a few of them at my University. Some of them can pass...

Yes, I saw the match yesterday. That's quite embarrassing for Nigeria. Mexico were playing with 10 men for 65 minutes of the match and they completley outpossesed and outplayed Nigeria.. Both of Nigeria's goals were flukes. One was a dubious penalty cal for handball. The other took a...

Mexico vs Nigeria is on tonight. Should be a funny matchup of all possession and crisp passing vs all athleticism and selfish play. :laugh:
