So let me get this straight, the gamecast says we hit the crossbar twice, is that right? How many times did we come even close to scoring?

---

We did hit the bar twice. We had several other decent opportunities and probably should have put one in the back of the net. Jozy made a really nice run but his final touch failed him once.

I don't know the statistics but I would guess international teams average 1 goal per 5 quality opportunities or so. We had some chances.

Been a pleasure guys. A much needed respite from the Rant. Quality discourse on both sides of every "disagreement".

Geaux Tigers and USA. All we can do is hope we make marked improvement in the next year.

I just got back from work and haven't posted since about the 8th page...

Where do I start...

1) People need to stop saying we have no talent, because we have loads of athleticism and skill. You can debate it, but I just refuse that our young American players aren't talented. I think they're aren't being developed properly.

2) Bob Bradley is fricking terrible. Beasley...really??? What the hell made him think he would be even decent?

3) Who does Freddy Adu have to sleep with to see 10 minutes of garbage time? I honestly think he doesn't even come off the bench because Bradley is afraid he's gonna ball out of control and then he'd really be screwed

4) Landon Donovan is a very solid player, but as long as he's viewed as our "go-to-guy", we have no chance to go anywhere. I can't even recall the last shot he made that wasn't a penalty kick.

Even though the Egypt game means NOTHING, it's exciting to think about a HUGE lineup change and how they'll come out. If we have any heart or pride we'll come out with a little fire. And if Bradley has any brain Feilhaber and either Adu or Torres will start (even though i'm positive it'll be Clark again).

Well let me clarify myself...

We don't have Ronaldo, Torres, Ronaldhino, etc. type talent. But we can certainly be just as competitive if not better on a consistent basis as England. I just blame everything on management and coaching.

I'm gonna go ahead and agree with literally everything you said.

Any reason Casey is on the team and not Cooper? I just think it's ridiculous we're losing 2-0 and our halftime sub is connor casey...really?

taylor twellman ftw

conor casey looks like dom from entourage


like the new sig?
