    Well thankfully Honduras took Finishing School from the Mexicans.

    Seems like a huge gap between Honduran central midfield and defense.

    I think it was "marbles on a block of granite".

    07' 0-0 Dempsey dribbles into box top center, gets squished 1-v-2 and forced off the ball. No call. Honduras pops ball to circle back left, Bengtson leads a 3-v-1 break. Dribbles to 22m arc left, soft diagonal pass beats the 1, sets up #13 Costly wide-open just inside box top arc right. One-touch left instep sweep, not much power -- Howard on knees blocks with torso. Ball pops out, Bengtson heads it toward, #5 Omar Gonzalez heads it sideways, Honduras offside.

    Three commentators is too many. Constant babble from Hudson. Yuck.

    Jeez -- we don't look ready for prime time. Just have to get through the first 2o or 25 minutes and get our legs.

    EJ cut that ball off or would have been more trouble.

    Giving away possession too cheaply.

    EJ was pretty non-chalant about that. Also, who is tracking Boniek right now? Where is Williams?

    Yeah -- Hudson needs to dial it back.

    And as for the Ref - he's let Jones get away with a few already, so that's vaguely promising. The Dempsey / top of the box play was pretty close, not egregious.

    Ugly shit so far. The top 3 too far removed from the midfield. Back 2 not on same page.

    It drives me mad when our players have time to collect the ball from the air and instead try to do a snap header with little chance to complete the pass.

    Looking nervous and shaky is different than looking like we don't care.

    It is beyond difficult trying to find a stream that doesn't constantly freeze up...
