Brandi, please no! Has she ever coached a team at any level. Don't tellme it is because she has played at the national level, so has Maradonna.

lots of male stars turn out to do very well managing....

the game isn't a mystery...and i'd think chastain knows more about the game than the vast majority of coaches....

she's the freaking leader, something ryan clearly didn't grasp...

give her a technical assistant if yoy think she's tactically challenged...

of course, her husband could help out, although he's turned the job down previously

Generally, coaches who witness a disastrous performance of their team resign immediately after the WC. Since Ryan is such a Forrest Dumb, I doubt he'll take responsibility for his team's poor showing and for his own poor coaching at the WC.

in general, it was one BAD choice, but was it bad...

i do wonder if any of the assistants would have asked him, do you really wanna do this.....

if you had her in mind, PLAY her MORE ....

but usa wins the bronze, and get another shot next year...

wonder who the keepers will be...

It boils down to the term, "gamefit", they said it about Michael Owen before England's last international. It is a very elementary term.

Was it in the 1998 World Cup that the Saudi coach was fired after 2 games?

[ironduke2010]

anyone else think dicicco looks like a freaking genius at this point? the guy seemed to be coaching better from the booth than many of the coaches, not just ryan. that boston team will be awesome in 2009.
