    3 game suspension for egregious and violent hand waving.

    Edison Azcona..who else? We may see him again, like we did in last Olympic qualifying. Apparently that wasn't enough of an audition for US coaches. They need another it seems.

    Let me know when DR makes the WC. They didn't even make the final rd of qualifying for this one. Next chance is 4 years away. In the meantime Paredes will be playing relevant comps for the US & ultimately cap-tied. There's zero reason to be concerned about this.

    That's shaky. It's an ostensibly more defensive CM, but McGlynn is a possession 8. Too slow to cover the space. Why does the best CB in Neal get benched? The Ferkranaus-Craig combo worked out poorly v. Canada. It's also Cuevas out of position to get Halliday who isn't very good on the field. May need to make early subs, unless the dynamos like Quinn & Paxten can make magic.

    I am not an American Football hater, but do we really have to sit through USFL propoganda?

    How many times do we need to do this other football league. It's always terrible. Always.

    He might've also thrown a punch. Costa Rica got 11 times as much punishment as we did.

    I don't think Neal was benched. Rotation. Varas has not played the same lineup two games in a row.

    Despite that, I unfortunately did.

    I enjoyed the edited-in crowd cheers in a completely empty stadium.

    There was a slow motion video where you can clearly see him punch a Costa Rican player in the gut.

    Probably the best half I've seen from a US team. So impressive considering the environment these boys are in.. I would swap out Clarke for Luna going forward, put Sullivan on the left side.
