Copa had the highest attendance ever for the tournament this year, and huge viewership in the States alone. I wouldn’t call that minor. I do think running it against the Euros was dumb, though.

The post isn’t even close to saying that his overall performance is the issue. He choked on a PK, which, for someone of his talent and reputation, is eternally embarrasing. He also has “retired” from international play like a big ol’ baby.

Man, Wondo was the LEAST of the issues last night. I don't get the hate for him.

...did you even read the last paragraph?

I don’t want the U.S. to stroll into the final by avoiding Brazil and Argentina.

Beckerman will almost definitely start, which is a huge disappointment.

Meanwhile, Jozy Altidore considered getting another bottle of water from the fridge and tweaked his hamstring.

You monster

Kid does well in MLS, but this is basically how he functions in international play. I like him as an MLS player, but don’t think he has a lasting place on the USMNT. I think Klinsmann sees something he wants to develop, but I'll be damned if I know what it is.

The family also isn’t actually asking for monetary damages.

There are plenty of other non-dickish ways to “make extra money during school.”

Exactly. I’d bet every penny I have (admittedly approximately 129 right now) that this guy has never had to deal with being called a cunt by a total stranger, or had a racial slur thrown at him.

Because, apparently, there is a god.

She doesn’t get credit for behaving like a reasonable human being after doing something that could’ve led to another person’s death.

Well, sure, that’s my point. The MLS isn’t very good, so the USMNT is not going to be very good, either, until the MLS improves.

The fact that they play in the MLS (and I say this as an MLS fan) is precisely the problem. The skill and fitness of most (please notice I said most) of the people on MLS teams is so far below what’s seen on the international stage that getting playing time there doesn’t amount to much.

Literally could not hate them more.

Who pissed in your Cheerios?

Sorry, but shit only comes out of my mouth.

Give this man an Oscar.
