    Paraguay's blue kit is pretty wild looking. I guess both ours and theirs make for a pretty wild combination. (Certainly compared to the 2 relatively plain shirts in the Canada/Bosnia game earlier in the day.)

    But hey, don't the 2 goalie kits clash?

    I think I recently saw such in an MLS or MLS Next Pro game.
    @KCbus, you're the resident ref. What say you?

    Happy that Richards seems good enough to play but don't love he didn't get any minutes in the lead up.

    When was the last time we thought we might have to outscore opponents because our defense is trash and actually have a chance to do it?

    I really want to like Pulisic but he seems like zero fun and kinda depressing of a person. It's weird that him and Donovan both as the "it" guys are subdued and reserved characters.

    Good callout.

    He has been thrust into being a face of the World Cup and selling interest to casual fans in the United States.

    I think secretly some of the U.S. team will be glad when the World Cup is over.

    I'm in Vancouver and brought these fake gold medals to chirp the locals about losing the Olympic hockey finals. Happy to report that Canadians are still not over it. PXL_20260612_222108254.jpg

    Wow. That’s harsh. Dissing the Canucks like that.
    They just might not say “sorry.”
