You should volunteer your amazing tactical acumen to the USMNT. All of us in the US would appreciate it, and laud you as a hero.

I detest how people so easily say that he made tactical errors, without listing what those errors were. I think he got his tactics right. I challenge you to list what decisions he got wrong and what the right move would have been.

...mere days after a team full of MLS players took Belgium to the brink in the Round of 16...

Serious question: do Brazilians, Colombians, and Argentinians say that the fates of their national teams depend on the strength of their domestic leagues too?

You're using the term ace way too liberally if you consider Quitana an ace. Nice rotation starter but he wouldn't be a top guy on most teams.

They have put together an incredible farm system of position players. At some point, they'll flip some of these offensive studs for some pitching. And let's not forget that they're going to have huge money to spend on free agents. As a Cubs fan, I couldn't be more excited.

Even if they don't get either of those (I bet they get Lester), they've restocked the starting rotation several times — they can find pitching. But more importantly, they now have the pieces to get some top-line starters. I don't know if they'd trade Baez, but if they did they'd get the friggin' moon.

Is there a reason you directed this to me?

That's absolutely false. Cities like Kansas City and Columbus sell out just about every game, and the rest of the league except for Chivas regularly are at 90%+ capacity. Attendance isn't the issue. Ratings are. As for your insinuation that MLS is trash, when was the last time you actually watched or went to a…

good thing it was the last game of the series. Pretty sure someone from the Cards saw Puig smiling in the dugout. He needs to learn how to respect the game. A little chin music should teach him.

You follow la liga closely but you call Robben earning what was a real penalty dishonorable? That's a contradiction in itself. 3o million people watched the U.S. play Germany, flopping happens in every sport including football. Don't try and group the whole country into people who hate flopping therefore cannot like…

Why do people write personal essays about why they dislike soccer, then feel the need to substitute "Americans" where the word "I" belongs?

So he was polite and respectful to start with and she kept talking and refusing to listen to him, when he repeatedly asked her for her id which she didnt give him and refused to let him speak. He gave her plenty of warning about what was going on... so I dont see the problem here.

My only experience with Ramadan is my Indian friend making fun of my Catholic friend, because Lent is for pussies.

yeah, that mateen cleaves was a real world beater

Pictures of partially nude butts are enough for your husband to masturbate? Just...wow. Poor guy. That is a REALLY LOW threshold.

I agree that Gomez seems like a general dick on the field. I love that everyone wildly overreacted to your hyperbolic statement about throwing at him every time. Also, it was a douchey move by Gomez to go for a takeout slide in the 8th inning of a game his team is leading 9-2. I don't care if that's an unwritten…

No.. No, I don't believe you.

Yeah people should only be able to support teams that are really famous for winning a long time ago! You seem to be doing a really good job! Go leafs right?

I'm halfway serious when I say that the MLS needs to start utilizing WWE style entrances for each player. Seriously lacking in pyro.
