Remember, this is FIFA we're talking about. This is the governing body that decided Qatar in the summer would be a great idea for a World Cup (also Russia, the ****?)

Most corrupt sports governing bodies:

1. FIFA
1. FIA
1. NCAA

Were you trying to put a thought together here? Feel free to use more words.

I was looking yesterday at our back line from 2010 and our back line this year, and I couldn't believe just how awful it was. When your best defender is Carlos Bocanegra, (and you have Jonathan "Slowest Man in the World" Bornstein) you're in a lot of trouble...

At least we've got a serviceable back line now. Besler has been sharp, Beasley has made a good transition from midfield, and Cameron/Johnson and Chandler making a comeback from injury would be excellent. Glad to see Timmy made the 30 man.
Everytime I have ever seen Ronaldo do something worth doing it is either in a Real Madrid shirt or some vague Nike kit...because it's a commercial. Haha.

Why didn't Portugal get one of the 8 number 1 seeds?

Rankings have nothing to do with seeding. It is all based upon politics and story lines.

They also barely qualified. Had to beat Ibra and Sweden in a playoff.

Just need to win that first game and let the other teams beat on each other.

I like to get into the spirit of the World Cup. It's very fun. But we suck this year...like every year.

I feel like five points is pretty much our best possible outcome. Unless we can steal one from Portugal like we did in 2002.

23 man roster is in...no Landon.

Wondo in which I like...Green is in...

Davis and Yedlin are in which I am not crazy about.

Its a surprise I mean....Zusi has been sort of the guy in an LD type role for a while now and that sabbatical or whatever LD took really rubbed JK the wrong way. Truth is LD is only so fit and he really has not played good soccer for club or country since the Gold Cup.

|Zach| 05-22-2014 04:42 PM
Will miss ya Landon.

True, but we need goal scorers who create thier own chances (wether it be via runs or beating a guy 1:1). Now have have only Dempsey who can be easily marked out of a game. Altidore has been just as bas as Donovan lately.
