It would never happen in a billion years, but my crazy dream is a 40 team league, split between two perfect 20 team, round robin leagues. No...
Don't really see what the advantage is for Mexico on this. The $ cut must be great to take on the political risk.
60 / 10 / 10 makes the joint bid part seem pointless. Why deal with the hassles of a joint bid for 20 games outside the US?
My feed skipped, but it sounded like 60 games in the US, and ten each in Canada/Mexico? This is a rather strange event so far.
I'm not a youth development expert, but just from casually observing tournaments like Dallas Cup for the past 10-ish years, I do believe the...
You clearly have no idea how USSF finances work. Go read an article on it -- this stuff is not a secret. Friendlies vs. top world teams will...
How does CONCACAF LoN make USSF more money? We already play regular friendlies against Mexico, and no other CONCACAF nation would generate the...
I've always hated the idea of gutting CONCACAF to have the tops teams join CONMEBOL, but between this garbage and 6+ slots in WCQs, the time is...
Me: *stays away from the wretched waste known as BigSoccer for years* Me: *decides to check it after 6-0* This thread: *full of insane Nagbe...
Stutter step PKs are so inexcusably stupid. You have the entire net to aim for and are a professional soccer player. Just kick it. Right, Matt Le...
Not sure I've ever seen a U.S. Men's team in penalties. Am I missing an obvious one?
Half the team is dead on their legs. I understand the subs aren't attacking in nature, but this is ridiculous, Tab.
Not worse than Delgado.
I really, genuinely like the way the hold the ball. It's a level of comfort with the ball US teams don't often show. I just don't see how they're...
When they're in possession they look very Arsenal-y. Lots of decent, pointless possession. Nothing incisive or aggressive.
This team is infuriatingly naive. Not closing down obvious passing lanes, taking heavy touches around Serbia's box, leaving themselves open to...
If this were true, we wouldn't have attendance problems, would we? So what? A Somerville/Everett etc stadium would make it harder for people...
People love to complain about refs, but I think Dwyer, Feilhaber, and Sarkodie all earned their yellows.
I think he'll get subbed in around the 75th minute or so, depending on the game situation. I would bet he's in better shape than a lot of people...
Very true, but if we want this to be the start of a trend and not a one-off, this deal has to work on whatever metrics ownership uses to measure...
Maybe the most overlooked and astonishing part of this is that Jones fills an exact position of need. Jones is basically the platonic ideal of...
If the Fire wanted Jones that badly, they should have struck a deal with him while they were the sole team negotiating with him. They can't be...
Isn't the bigger problem that the Revs have created an atmosphere where the best players have no desire to come here? Or they will, but only at a...
This is all correct. I just wonder how many years they have to fall behind the average before it reaches a breaking point. The Revs are already...
New England is "over 5,000" STHs now. I believe that's a slight uptick from their last official number. Source:...
