What's the big deal? If you look back at the last six World Cups, you'll see that exactly one African team made it to the second round in each...
Yes, let's start Bradley and Clark and save Lampard/Gerrard the trouble of having to shove somebody to get the ball.
I don't see how anyone could endorse DeMerit over Goodson after these last two games. Goodson is composed with the ball at his feet. He...
I can understand the argument for Fabiano, but I think it's far from ridiculous that the Golden Ball went to Kaka. He only scored two goals, but...

Since Gold Cup opponents aren't that good and are likely to bunker, I would go with just one of Clark/Mastro/Bradley, paired with Donovan in a...
I think Bruce has O'brien penned in to start. He's trying to throw Ghana off with all the injury talk. ;) Also, if Lewis isn't playing LB,...
