  1. This is a bonkers but terrific profile of Luis Suarez: http://espn.go.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/10984370/portrait-serial-winner-luis-suarez-soccer-most-beautiful-player Preview of tonight friendly vs Azerbaijan and things to look for: http://www.americansoccernow.com/articles/7-things-to-look-for-in-the-first-world-cup-warmup
  2. What do you mean?
  3. Big Head Red Head, DuNord, Best Soccer Show, Soccer Morning, ExtraTime Radio. Anybody know where I can find a Tim Howard US jersey?
  4. The only mild surprise is Fab on the right. Dempsey is a forward at this point in his career and has always been more valuable there anyway. Couple of really hard working, two-way midfielders on the wings and if Jones stays home and Bradley plays at the tip of the diamond and acts as the first line of defense, that's a damn good team.
  5. Ray Hudson on the Donovan exclusion. https://soundcloud.com/siriusxmfc/the-football-show-ray-hudson-goes-ballistic-because-of-landon-donovans-wc-exclusion
  6. I agree with TT. I don't necessarily agree with Jurgen's roster choices, but I don't have a problem with how he went about selecting it. He's not there to be nice when he cuts people. He's there to win games. I don't give a [expletive] if he's too ruthless or cold in how he makes cuts. Whether or not the roster he selected is the best to do that is up for debate but the whining about who is owed what is bush league (no one here is really doing that, more a comment about the uss media). He was hired to shake things up and he's doing just that. Whether or not hes the right man to have that power is, again, a totally separate conversation and hard to judge.
  7. Link to the story? I didn't see Parkhurst's comments but the comments from the always professional and honest Evans are here: http://www.soundersfc.com/post/2014/05/24/interview-brad-evans-world-cup-roster-decision Also, Donovan with 2 goals and an assist tonight. Now the all time MLS goal king. Think he was excited about that record goal. http://www.mlssoccer.com/video/2014/05/25/goal-landon-donovan-nets-135-breaks-mls-record
  8. Super classy finish from these two teams. Pure class. Shirtless flexing, suits fighting, coaches starting fights, cards getting handed out and Ramos looking like a voice of reason.
  9. DiMaria has been superb.
  10. Soccer is the best sport.
  11. The [expletive] strikes!
  12. Hope Jurgen & crew are taking notes. This is balls-out, aggressive defense against superior talent at its finest.
  13. Ramos is such an [expletive].
  14. [expletive] Gus Johnson.
  15. Cristiano winked at us, you guys. He is the best.
  16. Great stuff from today's Soccer Morning:
  17. Of course he is, but I understand Jurgen wants guys who want to be there.
  18. That kid is a [expletive], and ruined any chance JK has of plausibly denying that this wasn't personal. As a former teenager who liked to troll people and talk [expletive], if someone did my dad dirty and carried himself with the overall aloof bitchness that Landon has seemed to project, I would have totally tweeted that. I guess what I'm saying is that that tweet isn't Klinsmann's fault and if his reasons for leaving Landon off the team aren't entirely professional, that's fine with me. Landon probably deserves it.
  19. Jurgen must've really liked that first half v Mexico here in Phx. If Jozy can't go, it's gotta be a 4-4-2 with a diamond MF and Deuce linking with Wondo.
  20. Kid didn't just delete the tweet, he deleted his account. Somebody's grounded. Seriously though, try to tell me Jurgen didn't harbor a grudge for Landon's no-show at Bayern. All that does is fuel my theory that LD was one of Brian Strauss's sources. Landon, Boca, DeMerit and Benny.
  21. So.... ----------------------Howard Chandler------Cameron----Besler--------Beasley -----------------------Jones/Beck Zusi---------------------------------------------Fab ------------------------The Man -----------------------Deuce -----------------------------Jozy
  22. Kid didn't just delete the tweet, he deleted his account. Somebody's grounded. Seriously though, try to tell me Jurgen didn't harbor a grudge for Landon's no-show at Bayern.
  23. Also, DeAndre Yedlin is the first MLS Academy homegrown player to make a World Cup. When we win the cup, it will be because of homegrown MLS academy players.
  24. Jurgen is lucky we're (all USMNT fans) obsessed with the future because this is astounding in any other context other than the blinding hope for the future that Green represents. Good lord. 1 senior club team performance vs the weight of Landon's legacy and everything it represents. The balls on our coach...
