Well, I think that Dema should go for it. Even if he gets his citizenship in this country, I doubt he'd have much of a chance to get the call up to the national side. He's 26 and can play somewhere in midfield. We've already got lot of good young guys that are capable of contributing to the game. The only time I'd want Dema on the field is when we play Mexico... when they start getting rough with Cobi, send in Dema to straighten them out :D

Why on earth would you want that to happen? Let them get rough with Cobi.....let Dema protect the DMB's, prima-Donavan's, Convey's, and Adu's on the field.

I thought Cobi liked it rough!

No no, you've got it all backwards. It's always rough when it's 4 inches.

I didn't realize it was even an option, but I'd love to see Dema get a chance with the US Nats. There are plenty of matches where it would be nice to have a player with his toughness available.

Not backwards-- he likes it from behind

Dema seems like a much better link to the offense playing as a D-mid than Armas or Mastroeni. Obviously Reyna and JOB could take that roll.

Speaking of them, how old are Reyna and O'Brien anyway?

Listen, we love Dema and all, but he wouldn't get a sniff of playing time on the US national team.
