I have a sick feeling in my stomach watching Holden being taken out. I pray it is just too keep him from getting seriously hurt. He's already lost several years of playing time.

Is this the first year this has been on the main fox station? That would be a bump in audience.
Are they responsible for the game being on at such a stupid time?

from the injury I meant
I don't think it's the same knee he injured back in 2010, so that's a good sign.. It's also good to see him walking off on his own.I hope Holden's just been taken out as a precaution...

Yeah, his face seems to say it's not good.fuck...the way Holden is looking.... I am feeling devastated for him
Hopefully I'm wrong and it's just from disappointment from missing the final.

That is all CONCACAF
Yeah. That one was the right knee. This time it's the left I think.I don't think it's the same knee he injured back in 2010, so that's a good sign.. It's also good to see him walking off on his own.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Call me crazy, but the US seems so tentative.

Panama's pressure is killer right now.
All the US has right now is long 50/50 balls. This is not good.

Did you go to the american school of black and white?
There are three types of handballs
1 ) Unintentional, cant be avoided, player wasnt even looking at ball (ie, what happened)
---No card, no penalty
2) Mostly unintentional but player could have done more to avoid it, or player was being careless (ie, waving hands around)
---Penalty, maybe a yellow, maybe no card depending on ref interpretation
3) Intentional
---Penalty and red

He made himself larger with his arm out though didn't he? His eyes were clearly on the play.

I love when Mexicans have to watch Gold Cup finals without their team in it.

His arms were stretched out pretty wide.

You are, in fact, referring to the play that fell under category 2? And yes, we Americans are simple folk who can't understand nuance.

He was running away from it, and from what I saw, he was already looking ahead, not bad/side where the ball was coming from.
Id have to see it again, but obviously the ref doesnt get a replay, and thats what it looked like.
I just get tired of people saying "IT TOUCHED HIS HAND THATS A PENALTY RED HANDBALL WAAAA"
When thats not the rule.

The rule changed a while ago mang. "Intent" has nothing to do with it. Now, there needs to be a "deliberate" motion of the hand/arm that results in a handball - that includes deliberately making yourself "bigger" to cause a handball. Intent has absolutely nothing to do with it.
Also, the level of deliberateness has nothing to do with whether there is a yellow or red card. A yellow card is given if the handball was a tactical foul or if it constituted "un-sportmanship conduct." A red is given if it "denies a clear goal scoring opportunity."
Make sure you know the rules next time before you are condescending.
Edit: I didn't see the handball here, so you may be right that it was not deliberate (and you are indeed right if he was running away and the ball hit his arm), but I'm just correcting your characterization of the rule.
