Giving the a/c time to catch up in Jerry's World. And more time for the MNT fans from LSU to get liquored-up!
Chance of snow?

I'm sure you've probably addressed this at some point, but I must have missed it. What are you there for? Mission work? Military? Teaching? That seems like a cool place to live!


ETA: 2-1 to us tonight.

Is it safe to assume the game will be on somewhere at Laberge?

Hope this is a 4-2-3-1 with Nagbe in the middle and Morris on the wing.

Agreed. I don't know how he operates for Portland, but when Nagbe plays on the wing for the US, he seems to disappear in matches. When he plays through the center, it's almost like he's forced to involve himself more, if that makes sense.

This is my third year teaching a unit operations study abroad course for senior chemical engineers from the University of Alabama at DTU. I'm approaching the point where I can claim to "summer" here.

Costa Rica is a fast, counterattacking team, so having Zusi and Gonzo in the back four worries me a bit with those speed matchups against guys like Bryan Ruiz. Besler and Villafana are at least fast.

This game will come down to whether or not we can limit dangerous turnovers and find a way to break their shell. Costa Rica is probably gonna sit back in their 5-4-1 and look to counter.

No I didn't actually. I don't remember what I was doing but I missed that one. Only saw the highlights. Tell me about it please.

He was our second best player behind Pulisic.

Nothing against Besler, but how long has he been around? Miazga should be getting these minutes to not only show what he has, but gain first team experience.

Since 2013.

That's what training is for.

Besler, I'd argue, has shown the best of any of our CB's this tournament.
