    The people of Tȟatȟáŋka Íyotake were waiting on the shore when Christophero first sighted the new world.

    If USA plays inspired and Dempsey and or Altidore can provide a magical strike, who knows, maybe USA will take this one. Both are in great form with their clubs.

    This stadium has a very small footprint. DC United fans have fantasized about squeezing something similar into Buzzard Point.

    No way do we score in this game.

    1) Williams out of position at RM for the 4th time. Maybe he'll actually complete an attacking pass.

    2) Shea has been horrid of late. Let's start him at LM.

    3) JK has some aversion to playing Bradley as an 8. He's played him at RM, CAM, and now DM. We'll, he's getting closer. And Mike is so good, he won't be horrible. But he's obviously a better choice then Edu as the 8, or Williams at RM.

    4) Edu is not an 8.

    5) Jozy is not very good leading the line.

    6) Goodson is not physical enough for top flight competition.

    =============

    All these things have been pretty obvious lately. I know injuries have handicapped things somewhat, but don't we think something like this would have been better?

    --------------Howard-------------
    Dolo---pick a RCB---Boca---Spector
    ---------Williams---Bradley---------
    Dempsey------------------Johnson
    ----------Buddle---Atlidore---------

    I'd prefer Dempsey closer to goal, but at least everyone is in a spot where they can play well. Contrasted to JK's lineup.

    I know I'm in the minority but I mildly dig the new away kits. Except for the funky collar.

    I'm scared!

    If Bradley or Edu don't cover well for Goodson and Boca we could be in big trouble. One or the other will need to be playing almost as a CB at times.

    All I know is that for a second the jerseys confused me about which team was Italy.
