As I was leaving Denver, my brother and I were discussing the news reported last week that USSF has talked to Klinsmann about the US Soccer head coach position. This combined with rumors that Robobob said his last goodbyes to the team after their embarrassment in [...]

So I’m still trying to digest what just transpired today in South Africa and am struggling to put my finger on my feelings. In case you missed it the United States Men National Team defeated Egypt 3-0 and moved onto the next round due to an Italy loss to Brazil of the same score. It [...]

Since we’ve already talked about the biggest issue with Bob Bradley’s coaching in the lack of passion instilled in his team, now is a good time to continue the biggest discussion spreading throughout US Soccer at the moment. Why doesn’t Freddy Adu see any playing time under Bob Bradley? Unless your Eric Wynalda or some [...]
