  2. [expletive] hell, are we playing 3-bar?
  3. So far so good. Noticeable difference after winning balls. No issues so far. The goal will come.
  4. CBus always brings it for the important games.
  5. You have to be [expletive] me re: the past 60 seconds
  6. I am fully on board with the Herculez Gomez love.
  7. Clint's touch is off.
  8. Poor man's Holden. Kind of like JFT is the poor man's Benny Feilhaber. Real talk early: this game is too big for Torres.
  9. The Jamaican #17 has a beer gut.
  10. Oooooo Zusi, I see you. I like it.
  11. Klinsmann is completely stupid when it comes to the player pool. Completely. We still have 5 CMs in the damn game. Who would you throw out there instead? Looking over the 18 I don't see any glaring omissions, save for maybe Shea(although is he really going to give more width than Torres?) My worry is that Torres and Zusi, both CMs, really, will drift inside and create a narrow wreck.
  12. Klinsmann is completely stupid when it comes to the player pool. Completely. We still have 5 CMs in the damn game. I don't hate this. We need possession and Dolo and Fab can give width. It's a big ask. Risking getting hit on the counter. I'd feel better with Shea out there so one of those guys can stay home. I guess its defensible to have him as a 2nd half sub, though.
  13. Christ, on 9/11 you can't like the damn crowd sing instead of Karaoke Man?
  14. [expletive] awesome. What the past generation of US players was all about. Not gonna lie...kinda wish we had him to toss onto the field tonight.
  15. Hejduk. Legend. Couldn't cross. But legend.
  16. Klinsmann is completely stupid when it comes to the player pool. Completely. We still have 5 CMs in the damn game.
  17. It is adding a fun element of unpredictability.
  18. -SF's defense is really good. Da Bum must be in sweaty, melted cheese heaven. -These games are ending at 7pm. Nuts. -The refs here in SEA/AZ are clowns.
  19. Really? Really? it is truly a dark day when we must call into question the objectivity of a gentleman like ELCABALLO45 You know, I didn't even notice the name. Now it makes sense.
  20. Really? Really? Did he take his helmet off and throw it to the ground? Yes? Is that a flag? Yes I don't know how else it can be explained. It was mostly off of his head already. Because it got kicked off.
  21. Really? Really?
  22. Hoo boy....this crew is NOT going to survive the game.
  23. You seemed fine with the team wolf posted on Sunday. Two changes were no Bocanegra or Cherundolo, but they were injured, and the others were Edu and Gomez in for Torres and Shea. Because Beckerman and Edu are completely redundant, since one is bad and the other is slightly worse. Shea can provide width, which would absolutely be needed if your game plan is to keep shape and hit them on the break, and Torres can at least be a deep lying playmaker. Playing Jones, Edu and Beckerman together is just asking for there to be absolutely no service to the attackers, and asking to be dominated in possession.
  24. 24th - 61st minute - boy we really can't do much with the ball, this looks like a CONCACAF road game 62nd minute - oh good a wondergoal on a free kick, exactly what we needed 63rd - 90th minute - boy we really can't do much with the ball, this looks like a CONCACAF road game You have now watched US/Jamaica. Thanks. That's pretty much what I imagined it to be. If he ever starts Edu and Beckerman in the same midfield again, I'm going to go full Trey and shoot heroin into my forehead on Klinsmann's doorstep. I can't even decide which one I hate more at the international level.
  25. [expletive] Comcast. And [expletive] BeIN Sports. They only put the Spanish language version on in Chicago, and then were supposed to show the game on tape delay at 10:45. So my dumbass, instead of finding a stream, trusted that it would work. Turned it on...just in time to see Inez Whatever at BeIn showing highlights of the loss. FFFFF EDIT: I don't even need to see the game to know that a midfield of Jones, Beckerman (effing KYLE BECKERMAN starting a critical pre-hex game!!!) and Maurice Edu (Who is, and has pretty much always been [expletive]) wasn't going to get it done. We don't win on Tuesday, Juergen gets fired (deservedly) and we probably don't qualify. Great.
