I think that's gotta be a PK on Bradley. It's about the weakest one I would call as a ref but it should have been called regardless.

Now if we can stop looking so lackadaisical on the chances we are getting up top we should score another one without needing a PK.

10/16/2012 8:47:31 PM

can't afford stupid yellows like that from Dempsey in extra time. oh well.

10/16/2012 9:08:47 PM

lol at Dempsey's dive

nice game from Bradley/Williams. triple fuck yes for Jamaica through to the hex and not Guatemala

I can't stand them. I really developed a hatred for them during the 2010 World Cup cycle after the game in Guatemala City. They played so Dirty that night.

10/16/2012 10:30:28 PM

for any other nerds out there that care, CONCACAF is streaming the Hex draw tonight at 8 on their website so we'll know our schedule/opponents.

nice, thanks

2/6 - U.S. @ Honduras
3/22 - Costa Rica @ U.S.
3/26 - U.S. @ Mexico
6/7 - U.S. @ Jamaica
6/11 - Panama @ U.S.
6/18 - Honduras @ U.S.
9/6 - U.S. @ Costa Rica
9/10 - Mexico @ U.S.
10/11 - Jamaica @ U.S.
10/15 - U.S. @ Panama

If they make it through those first four games with a record like 2-1-1 or 2-2, they'll be fine.

I read something about the Mexican fed president saying Gulati already told him USA-Mex wasn't going to be in Columbus again this cycle. If it's not there, I guess it'll be in Kansas City.

I'm guessing the 5 stadiums will be: Columbus/KC, LA, DC, Salt Lake City, and somewhere in the south like Nashville or Tampa.

I just noticed TWC has the beIN channel on my guide. Has it been there for a while and I've just now noticed it?

Glad I can watch the away fixtures for the USMNT now

11/9/2012 3:14:52 PM

It was added in the last several days I believe. I remember just seeing something about Time Warner getting it.

11/9/2012 3:23:28 PM

1543

comes with the sports tier that I have.

hard choice between what has made my night, learning I get this channel or the bball game

11/9/2012 10:27:28 PM

how much is that sports tier now? I cancelled it after last PL season because I didn't really watch FSC+ that much

11/9/2012 11:11:33 PM

I got paperless billing so I admittedly don't look at my statement much, but I think it's like 5 or 6 bucks a month.

11/9/2012 11:39:53 PM

I think I'll get it and then cancel the next day after every single US away game

11/9/2012 11:41:22 PM

just check what the cancellation policy is with your provider. Some paid channels through cable or satellite providers have a fee if you cancel within XX amount of days of subscribing (often 30) to prevent people from doing that.

11/10/2012 9:04:03 AM

The package is really worth it. You get RedZone, FSC+, GOLTV, beIN, Fuel, etc. I'll gladly pay and extra couple bucks a month for 3 more soccer channels.

Roster for friendly against Russia on Wednesday. I'm interested to see Gatt/Gyau/Diskerud although I don't think any of them will be major factors in this cycle. Chandler's back but still not cap-tied. I think he'd be a great replacement for Donovan's position if he decides to call it quits.

Quote :

"Goalkeepers: Tim Howard (Everton), Sean Johnson (Chicago Fire), Nick Rimando (Real Salt Lake) Defenders: Carlos Bocanegra (Racing Santander), Geoff Cameron (Stoke City), Timmy Chandler (Nuremberg), Maurice Edu (Stoke City), Clarence Goodson (Brondby), Fabian Johnson (Hoffenheim) Midfielders: Michael Bradley (Roma), Mix Diskerud (Rosenborg), Joshua Gatt (Molde), Joe Gyau (Hoffenheim), Jermaine Jones (Schalke 04), Sacha Kljestan (Anderlecht), Danny Williams (Hoffenheim) Forwards: Juan Agudelo (Chivas USA), Jozy Altidore (AZ Alkmaar), Terrence Boyd (Rapid Vienna), Herculez Gomez (Santos Laguna)"

[Edited on November 12, 2012 at 2:00 PM. Reason : he'd be a great LM, not an exact Landy replacement]

11/12/2012 1:57:53 PM

Josh Gatt is absolutely ridiculous in FIFA 13.

That is all I have to contribute.

11/12/2012 2:50:59 PM

^ he's starting. Kickoff at 10 am.

Howard; Chandler, Cameron, Bocanegra (capt), F. Johnson; Williams, Jones, Bradley, Gatt; Gomez, Altidore

11/14/2012 9:01:26 AM

is this game streaming anywhere?

11/14/2012 9:05:17 AM

espn3

I'm sure firstrowsports will have a feed

11/14/2012 9:23:31 AM

I'd ask who the fuck Danny Williams is, but I have a feeling I won't be seeing him a whole lot.

11/14/2012 10:13:02 AM

This is pretty horrible so far.

Williams is another German native coming over here to play for Germany B.

[Edited on November 14, 2012 at 10:16 AM. Reason : .]

11/14/2012 10:15:21 AM

^^ Did you watch any of 2012 WCQ? He's a mainstay in Klinsmann's USMNT.

^ Yes.

It's a terrible giveaway but I actually like Williams as a DM

[Edited on November 14, 2012 at 10:18 AM. Reason : .]

11/14/2012 10:16:31 AM

I haven't really noticed Williams in the couple of WCQ I've seen.

I'm really starting to get tired of Jermaine Jones though. I just never see him do anything well.

11/14/2012 10:22:29 AM

Williams is forgettable as a RM, which is where Klinsmann played him most of the time, but pretty competent as a DM. Definite upgrade over Beckerman, imo.

Chandler/Gatt could be a very solid RB/RM pairing going forward. For some reason, I thought both were left sided players.

I guess they're amphibious.

11/14/2012 10:39:10 AM

BRADLEY! Beautiful volley

11/14/2012 11:37:28 AM

Damn that was an amazing volley by Bradley there.

11/14/2012 11:37:32 AM

aside from winning the header on Bradley's goal, Altidore has had an absolutely dreadful game. Just flat out passing the ball to the other team sometimes

11/14/2012 11:39:29 AM

I don't think he's had a good game, but he's also been alone up top a lot.

11/14/2012 11:43:22 AM

gooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal

11/14/2012 11:52:57 AM

MIXXXXXXXXX

11/14/2012 11:55:37 AM

Well okay then

11/14/2012 11:55:40 AM

That game had an exciting ending.

Big Time Timmy Jim was a beast in goal. He made about a half dozen amazing saves. Once again our goals come from chaotic broken plays and deflections. Bradley's shot was very pretty. Good to see the boys gutting out two come backs on the road.

11/14/2012 11:59:45 AM

Another game with some ugly moments but also some great ones and another decent result.

Gatt, Chandler, Johnson, Boyd, Diskerud, Bradley, Cameron, Agudelo... we've got a lot of young players that are contributing. That keeps me optimistic about the future.

[Edited on November 14, 2012 at 12:03 PM. Reason : Bradley's 25 and Cameron's 27, not "young" but still]

11/14/2012 12:02:29 PM

March 22nd WCQ vs. Costa Rica will be in Denver (Commerce City).

should be an awesome atmosphere

1/15/2013 4:25:55 PM

We play tonight? I didn't even realize until just now..

1/29/2013 7:59:42 PM

don't even waste your time looking at the roster

also, ESPN just signed a deal to broadcast every Mexico qualifier and are actively advertising Mexico's friendly tomorrow

I know why they're doing it, it just hurts a little

1/29/2013 8:08:07 PM

This is like watching a bunch of retards trying to fuck a donkey.

1/29/2013 11:01:16 PM

^^ hurts a lot. We'll be hearing fucking Mexico promos in every single soccer event espn has

also, that game sucked. On to the Hex!

1/29/2013 11:15:40 PM

So Shea is injured? That sucks. I think we could use him. Hopefully our first string plays better than tonights roster.

1/29/2013 11:39:46 PM

Yay Canada. Bags of milk for everyone.

1/30/2013 1:51:11 AM

This was a very tough game to watch. The only player I liked from last night was Beltran. He had some good crosses and played aggressive, but the quality around him was too poor to really tell.

Beckerman did was he was asked to, but I don't see him ever getting playing time on the A Team. Our attack sucked out loud all night, partly because Canada was all out defense all game. We struggle to keep possession, mostly because we keep playing long balls to players who can't do anything with it one they get it. We will see what happens in the Hex. I hope our A Team comes in focused and prepared.

1/30/2013 11:53:20 AM

Klinsmann likes Beckerman. I'd bet on seeing him again this cycle.

I like Gatt. Out of control at times but at least he's making an effort and trying something other than backpassing every time.

1/30/2013 1:48:29 PM

Always love U.S.-Canada games. It's the one time U.S. have to play a less-talented version of themselves and experience the frustration other teams do playing them.

1/30/2013 3:52:29 PM

Brek Shea has agreed upon a move to Stoke. Good news for USMNT.

1/31/2013 1:28:07 PM

I'd prefer he go to a football club, but at least he's in England
