Haha I definitely don't hate it.

In all reality, we should be able to start anyone we brought into the squad and beat Belize with relative ease. They will bunker for 90 mins, we must be able to break them down.
Me thinks that Stu, Donavan, Corona and Gomez on the field together should be able to do that just fine.

10 o'clock will never get here

Guys, we're playing Belize, if any single person on our roster is incapable of completing 90 minutes against a team like this. they should have never been called in.


Not that I disagree.... but after the A&B game of last year, I learned to never say never.

Thank God for Alan Gordon.

10 is so far away and the Cuba vs Costa Rica game will likely be a blowout.

For us gamblers on futbol, does the us cover the 2.5 goals?

Meaning, do we win by at least three?

I can't see any way this team doesn't smoke Belize. We have actually performed on offense these past couple games, and are finishing chances (something we have historically not been able to do).

I'd say we cover, I expect a 4 to 5 goal win. Belize has been relatively sound defensively, but we're much more talented, and Portland will be rocking.

I'd never put money on any soccer game.

One shitty red card in the 10th minute, and betting lines go out the window.

Gotta make the game interesting. We're gonna win, but by how much?


Hopefully three

Great story about Osvaldo Alonso on the pregame show. It's bs though that Cuba has to approve for him to play on the USMNT even though he's an American citizen now.

I heard people talk about him recently as a potential future player for us. Is he really that good. (If cuba releases him obviously.)

He's good, but not good enough to beat out Bradley, Jones, Holden.

I like him better than Beckerdreads.

Yeah, he'd be excellent to have in, say, this Gold Cup (though, I think that he's still injured)

But, he wouldn't change our squad dramatically. He'd just be a really solid backup
