As a prewarning to all my fellow US soccer nuts: can we please let these two kids (Joshua and Ben) have fun and develop before we start piling all the "savior of US soccer" pressure? I don't want them to go down the same path as Adu, Agudelo, Shea, where we declare them the savior and then crucify them when they…

My bad, here are a couple joke options.

Athletes, esp. Goalkeepers are highly likely to use some sort of compression short between their jock and shorts esp. given the prevalence of diving/strawberries in their position. Don't needlessly sexualize behavior just BC its done somewhere near kids. Nothing going on here worse for a kid than a day at a beach or…

The Stacks is consistently the best part of Gawker media, far and away.

I am missing where he looks miserable. But hey, it's only a headline right? Not GM's strong suit.

He actually said: "Breeding"

Its amazing how often this happens. I recently saw a poster for a MMA event where they had reversed several of the fighters. I first noticed it when I was wondering why all their tattoos looked like they put them on themselves in a mirror.

Iceland's umbrance at this situation only serves to draw attention to their hopelessness. Pleasant place to live I'm sure but shit at soccer. It's like my girlfriend leaving me for Shia LeBouf (not quite an A-lister just like US Soccer) and I present her with flowcharts as to why I need her much more than him in an…

Their opinions mean less than nothing. They didn't care when they were being paid but now they act like their opinions should carry more weight than the paying fans? Go back to the old man's home.

I understand based on your background that you are familar with it, but why would seeing that growing up lead you to respect it? I just can't support it, its a major violation of the social contract idea, Head to head you HAVE to root for the country of your citizenship.

Which just proves my point about those people being the kind to only support something flashy or currently popular, would they even love soccer if their home country didn't? But if someone wants to root for El Salvador while we destroy them, be my guest but from a soccer standpoint I hate their face.

Pick which parent you love most!

1. The scene in the corner with Landon, I don't believe as some that they are illegal or all here on visas, I believe a vast chunk of the El Salvador crowd is US citizens by birth or naturalization.

I knew about Menjivar, this is something that would be a great candidate for a higher degree conviction under my proposed system

US citizens found to be rooting for other national teams should be charged with treason. Ala Eddie Izzard we need degrees of treason like degrees of murder. This degrees punishment would be deportation to said country.

I'm trying to think of some way for my company to piss off t swift fans. 1.) Because their anguish sustains me B.) They will draw lots of publicity for cheap ii.) Cash in on other haters of their cult of personality.

I've suffered from anxiety and fear of crowds my whole life I thought fighting might help fix it but it just taught me that back to the wall, chips down, third cliche here, I could ignore how I FEEL in order to get the job done. Not the lesson I wanted to learn but valuable nonetheless

great article, the final line reminded me of Hemingway's final line in "A Farewell to Arms"

Also latinos, as that is what Zimmerman is.
