Olympics is u23 with a few over aged players.
Is restricting to below 23 self imposed? If so, wtf
I think you add 3 over age players when you qualify for the olympics not during qualification for the olympics.

It's a restriction imposed by FIFA in order to not let the Olympics overtake the World Cup. The women's tournament, curiously, does not have an age barrier.

well the silver lining for me is that this is great news for my club team who were set to lose a handful of players for pretty much half the MLS season over the Olympics (Adu, MacMath, Sheanon Williams, Okugo, McInerney)

They should pull for Mexico! Miguel Ponce was born in Sacramento California.
edit: enough trolling for one night i think
Shitty game. But at least I can still root for Canada because I am a dual citizen and I live in Toronto at the moment heh!
But damn, losing 2-0 to Canada and tying El Salvador in a must win situation is unacceptable. At least it wasn't world cup qualifying, still sucks though.

He doesn't coach the U-23 team. Unless you mean he's the one who hired the current coach.

Yeah, I dunno.
Teams are always changing jerseys. Generally club kits are changed yearly and national kits are changed 2 to 4 years coinciding with the tournament schedule.
Yeah I noticed that, seems weird, but probably helps generate more revenue or something.
Yes it is, every two years or so. Here are some of the other new ones.
Diagonal lines / sash
1) This new jersey still has the sash, it looks horrible though because they're diagonal lines on horizontal lines, and because it's so subtle that it looks like a stain:
2) The other new jersey (unveiled a few weeks ago) also has the sash:

If it is serious it looks like Herc will finally get the chance he has deserved recently.

Jozy and Michael both had good seasons too. There are many rumors of Bradley getting picked up by a bigger club in Italy.
