We need to make it out of our group at a minimum.

After that, it depends upon who we are up against in the knock our rounds.

Anything less than group advancement is a massive failure. This is a home tournament.

Hahah I will be satisfied if Landon Donovan rides in to the stadium on a unicorn and scores a goal. My statement much like yours involves something that only exists in fantasy.

What is the bare minimum expectations for the USMNT in your minds for this summer.

Try not to lose a game by four goals?

Anyone think we don't even make it out the group?

How are ticket sales going? If they need to keep US fan interest up, CONCAFAF will buy a referee to keep us in it for extra round - like they did with Mark Geiger and Mexico last summer.

Yup. Pretty sure all the other stars are playing in this tournament.
