He was banned for a month, but I believe that expired a few weeks ago. Not sure what he's up to.

He regularly posts on Reddit still. In response to "Why does Jürgen Klinsmann continue to leave out Benny Feilhaber?"

Who needs an MVP candidate like Feilhaber (or Donovan) when you have Brad f---ing Davis.

:lol Still not a big fan of Brad Davis. Nothing particularly positive in his recent comments about JK.

Would have loved to see his reaction during the last two USMNT wins!

- Pirlo buys home in New York​

[B-Dubs]

- Pirlo buys home is New York​

Edit:Mobile woes zzzzz

Welp, that confirms it. NYCFC might actually be worth a damn now that they've got Pirlo and Lampard coming over.

The Red Bulls better open that checkbook and spend some damn money.

That was an absolutely terrible half for our attack and I think Leroux almost had a red card worthy handball that went uncalled. Our women are frankly painful to watch against decent competition. Hopefully we come out strong in the second half again.

Glad to see the USWNT game last night got as much discussion here as it deserved.

Such uninspired mediocre play just like the run up games to the tournament. Sad to say it was the main reason I didn't take the trek up to Winnipeg, they've just been miserable to watch.

They are still in good position to advance but they need some switch flipped to make a real run.

Frankly, Lloyd and Holiday have been awful. Holiday at least can deliver a good set piece free kick, but she's made some soft passes which have been intercepted or close to it. Lloyd hasn't done anything of note offensively. Turnovers seem to be her main contribution so far. Can't expect Rapinoe to basically run the offense on her own.

Quick reminder that the U20's are facing off against Serbia in the U20 WC quarterfinals this evening. 12:30am ET kickoff on FS1.

 

[ZZMitch]

Won't be able to watch this time! Going out with friends for one of my last nights in Toronto before graduation. Good luck to the team tho, ill be following on my phone haha.

 

[sazabirules]

I wish there were some national broadcast games on Saturday.

 

[ZZMitch]

So who else didn't realize we would get unlimited transfers this week in MLS fantasy and only used 2?

At least my whole line up is playing but damn I feel like an idiot!

This is the truth.

Watching the USMNT's game v. Germany was night and day compared to watching the women play against Australia. Granted the men have looked dreadful at times earlier this year, but it seems they're actually building toward something and attempting to play sophisticated soccer. The US women's team last night (and the last several games) have been sooo predictable. They do 2-3 passes in the back and then launch it forward. It's like they don't trust their collective talent, which is actually very high for the most part.

The US women's game is stuck in the late '90s and we're paying the price for not developing our young female talent over the last decade and evolving our style of play. It's scary just how fast the rest of the world is catching up.

First MLS goal for Sebastian Lletget. Galaxy up one zero.

Yaaaaaaaaassssssssssss!

 

[KingGondo]

OKC back on top in the USL Western Conference after a 2-0 home win against Tulsa. Could have easily been 3 or 4-0 too.

Fun game tonight. We've really found our defensive form.

 

[NobleGreenBeast]

A tie for the LA Galaxy. It is a decent result.

 

[Meier]

The US will play Mali if they beat Serbia in the u20 World Cup.

I DVRed the game, so the hour and a half rain delay basically means I missed the entire game.

 

[Meier]

Some stupid race is on FS1 so the US game is on FS2.. which is non-HD for me. :*(

 

[Cornballer]

US-Serbia game is on FS2 in the US.

Aside from the centerbacks, the US team looks tiny next to the Serbian team.

 

[talisayNon]

ill never understand this country's stupid fucking obsession with a "sport" that requires people to only turn one direction

thank god for Telemundo

Track and field or Nascar?

 

[Cornballer]

Good stuff from Thompson so far. Serbia denying Hyndman and Zelalem, so it's nice to have a third offensive option out there. Like the possession from the US.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

number 10 for Serbia looks enormous

 

[Meier]

Doesn't feel like we actually have a striker.

Yay, HD now!

 

[smokeandmirrors]

It's on FS1 now

 

[Cornballer]

Tough for Rubin up there by himself.

 

[GhostWriter24]

LETS GO USAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

 

[talisayNon]

defense looks solid.

 

[Cornballer]

defense looks solid.

US U20 thought: Miazga, Carter Vickers, & Steffen have played 720 min together over 8 WCQ & WC games. Conceded just 3 goals. #Insane

.

Payne's been very good out there, too.

 

[Cornballer]

Serbia is playing a lot better now. US needs to settle down.

 

[Meier]

They're just pegging us back so much. Thompson looks like a child out there.

 

[Cornballer]

US set piece defense looks shaky.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

Steffen doing well so far.

 

[GhostWriter24]

It's going to take a brilliant counter from the US to take the lead in this one.

 

[Cornballer]

Close from Thompson there.

 

[GhostWriter24]

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CLOSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

 

[Meier]

Horrible giveaway there.

 

[Cornballer]

Horrible giveaway there.

Hyndman needs to get going. Zelalem, too.

 

[Omega Kirby]

Nice match
Serbia playing better

 

[Nesotenso]

Was there any update on Jameison?

 

[GhostWriter24]

USA vs Mali if they win this? Ughhh such a golden chance to reach the finals...

Then Brazil in the championship match. Let's do this!

 

[Cornballer]

Was there any update on Jameison?

I forgot to check if he was available among the subs.

 

[Meier]

CCV is a beast. Requejo is a bit of a weak link.

 

[Cornballer]

CCV is a big boy at 17. Exciting having him in the program.

Hyndman and Zelalem need to impose themselves more on the game. Not sure how the US scores here on a cross or a set piece. Have to keep it on the deck or get a counter.
