I did. They are presumably coming from Europe to the US, then flying down to CR together?

Again, do you know where CR is? If your acclimating to the time difference from Europe, why does it matter if you're in Phoenix or CR?

Fly in the day before after practicing in the US (or Panama, etc.), do your walk through there and not have to deal with this BS.

CR is in the same time zone as the US Mountain Daylight Time. So "jet lag" is not an excuse when taking a 3 hour flight from the same time a day before.

If they need to acclimate to 6 or 7 hours behind GMT, fine. But they were going to do that anyways. So why not just practice in the US or Panama at a similar altitude, then make the trip to CR the day before and fly out right after?

Avoid all the BS they knew was coming.

This isn't golf where you have a caddy and you leisurely play a "sport", soccer actually requires physical fitness. Flying in the day before and not being acclimated to your surroundings is not a good idea.

How is it ok when bush league bullshite like this happens? I can't imagine it happens in Europe and I know it doesn't happen in other sports over here.

Jozy was withheld from full training Wednesday and might rest until the Mexico match. This was reported by Ives. LINK

He projects GAM to start striker, but if we are going to rest Jozy I want to see the wunderkid Aron Bacon get a shot.

I am still in favor of starting the Gold Cup lineup, or as many of them as we have on the travel squad.

Can we stop calling him Aron Bacon? That's a terrible name.
