Well, to quote one of the greats, cocaine is a hell of a drug. Cocaine isn't a hallucinogenic.
As a Metro supporter back in '03, I thought Clark and Gaven would be in Germany for sure. Look how it turned out with Mastroeni, Olsen, and JOB. People were assuming Reyna, O'Brien, Gibbs, Yi, Quaranta, Adu, Szetela, Mathis, et al. to step up in 2008.
Instead you had a relative dark horse like Clint Dempsey emerge and a slew of disappointments from the well known names.
We still have no-one effective at right midfield but Gaven never stepped up when given the chance.
He has no top speed and arguably not enough body strength to play wide on the international level.
There are ways out of it but they require a motion offense, which the US doesn't use.
Plus, Dempsey is OK on the right.

Yes, and the joke was a reference to Chappelle's Show and the fact drugs, particularly cocaine, seem to have played a large part in derailing Quaranta's career.
He's still only 24, so maybe he will work his way into the picture in a couple of years. You never know.

I believe it involves good deal of back door cuts...

Getting this back on the somewhat admittedly moldy topic...
I wouldn't mind seeing us do this on a youth level as a counter to that "prestegious" Toulon tournament that we probably won't get invited back for either...
Put it in Southern California in the summer, throw in free passes to Disneyland, add a little beach time, and I'll bet we could get 7 other decent youth national sides to show up.

You're not doing enough. A guy I know inherited a LOT of money and became a coke fiend. Eventually he started to think that there were hockey players in the tree outside his house trying to get him. Technically more of a schizophrenic delusion than a hallucination, but it's a thin line.

Cocaine isn't a hallucinogen and won't make you think like that. He was doing more than coke or had dmt or something in it.

Hockey players in trees outside the house?!?!?! Sounds more like yo friend was on that "Ron". I think he got his white powders mixed up. All the more reason to stay away from that mess.
