USA lost yesterday 2-1 to Mexico. Didnt watch the game cuz I was traveling, but from what I heard the referee was awful and the crowd was just as bad.

Italy tied the Switz 0-0. A few of our guys made their international debut, so I am not worried.

USA won 2-1. Jozy is a beast, he can be the difference between making us just good and great.

it was a beautiful shot but the defense looks horrendous right now. Both of those goals should have been prevented.

Damn what a strike by Ruiz. That was insane. USA needs to stop letting these teams take a lead, it always seems that we are coming back everytime.

These guys won't shut it about the yellow eh? lol

Was it a bit harsh, maybe. But the reason he got one was because the challenge came AFTER the ball was played away. That's the least of their problems though. They need to worry about the defense not letting Costa Rica just run circles around them on the flanks. They also need good strikes from the strikers. Jozy and Casey have both missed golden opportunities to score.

Goal by Maurice Edu. Nice to see the young kids get some valuable playing time.

That was an impressive result. Didn't catch the game, as I chose to record Spain's game instead, but Turkey are a handy team. I don't like how cocky some US supporters are. Did anyone see that picture thats been going around of Donovan holding a decapitated Rooney's head?? lol

Like seriously...let's get real. Rooney is out of this world...I don't think the US will have much luck against him.

It was a very impressive game, we were attacking against that Turkey defense and we are really playing like a team who knows when and were to attack.

As for MG, thats how us Americans are, we think we can beat everyone at anything. Its prolly a good reason why the rest of the world hates us....

I don't hate the US.

I just find it weird, funny almost, that Americans expect to excel in this sport.
