Three games... one goal.

They should market DVDs of Guatemala games as a cure for insomnia.

 

check Jack Warners back pocket.....McBeth had it right....

 

For anyone who hasn't heard, T&T will be fielding a team without a single member of its WC 2006 team due to the pay dispute, which is a damned shame considering what a weak field this is outside of the usual suspects...

Does this include Scott Sealy and/or do you know if he will be playing for T&T? I don't remember if he was on the final 2006 WC roster or not.

 

The teams in the US group are just not that good. I know teams are gonna bunker but the US should average three goals scored per game in group play.

 

I don't see him on their Gold Cup roster...

Interesting. Appreciate the help.

 

Maybe he was an alternate on the WC team?

Anyways, this is quite a story about their team's efforts to get to the Home Depot Center:

To the BS'er responsible for this incident, well done!

 

Way to capitalize on the WC T&T

And doesn't it always seem like we're grouped with El Salvador in something whether its the GC or the semis of WCQ?

 

The only one who capitalized was Jack A Warner, he got his country T&T to the World Cup by paying Mexico to lose to T&T in the very last game of Qualifying.

The man got caught illegally selling T&T WC tickets, making huge profits. He's a piece of shit, he continually steals from his federation.

 

Yes, I think the MLS teams arrange this so they can show all the Salvadoreans living in the US how bad their team suchs compared to ours so MLS teams can justify not having any Salvadoreans on their roster any more.

I say this only partly in jest.

 

you are correct....although few seem to care or want to change the status quo.

 

wow so we're getting El salvador, guatamala, and a watered down T&T. This first game we play is the biggest one. I think Landon and EJ are up top against guatemala. EJ breaks out of his lull finally. I think Ching and Twellman will be able to knock a few in on their own behalf too against them.....and the third place A/C team. We can afford to tinker in the games after Guatemala up to the semifinal i think. Then the last two games we throw in the big boys.

 

Sidenote, if it wasnt for the U-20 tourneyment this would have been THE time to bleed in Altidore. Kid is incredible. His technique is already much better than players like EJ, Twellman, and Ching. Even with the amount of goals EJ and Twellman have scored i still think Altidore is our second best forward, all you need to do is watch a game with Altidore and you know whats up, he's an amazing player.

I think this summer is really the last we see of at least Twellman and Ching in starting roles, and phasing in of Altidore and Davies. and that SHOULD start against Sweden. That game has Donovan-Davies up top written all over it, with Altidore off the bench in any luck. Should be the same against Poland and at Camp Nou as well.

 

We're playing Poland again? I thought we had Sweden, Switzerland and Catalunia for our Euro trip?

 

your right that was my fault. Sweden, Switzerland, and the Catalans

 

From what I gather it's virtually impossible.

He holds all of the Carrib. nations votes through patronage, corruption and payoffs. That number easily beats the rest of the region even if they all combined, so it would be a futile effort, and could likely bring backlash to those that oppose.

Also, even thought he is a crook/shady character he is in with the biggest schmuck in charge in Blatter. In some ways he actually does help us. Sad predicament all the way around.

 

Plus, he hates the U.S. National team and he jerks off the Mexican one.

 

any evidence warner bribed mexico to dump the wcq match so t&t could make the finals??
