worthwhile stats
The average number of caps on the roster is barely eight. Only four members of the side – Guzan, Jonathan Bornstein, Clarence Goodson and Jonathan Spector – can claim more than 15 appearances in an American jersey. Aside from the six potential debutants, another five guys have fewer than eight caps to their names.

ppl seem to be either waaay pissed off at the inclusion of guys like Pause, Borchers, and Carroll or waaay excited about the inclusion of guys like Agudelo, Diskerud, Agbossoumonde, etc. (not using nicknames because their real names are pretty sweet imo)

fwiw: lol iirc sb'd u tbqh (dan m), Friday, 12 November 2010 15:53 (fourteen years ago)

the wild thing is Bornstein is going to captain this bunch

fwiw: lol iirc sb'd u tbqh (dan m), Friday, 12 November 2010 15:54 (fourteen years ago)

have bradley and holden ever played together in central midfield?

mizzell, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 19:02 (fourteen years ago)

I'm not sure, but I'm guessing no. Big Bradley seems to like Holden on the wing when he's in the game.

It's kind of weird how many capable central mids there are in the pool now.

fwiw: lol iirc sb'd u tbqh (dan m), Tuesday, 16 November 2010 19:08 (fourteen years ago)

well, how many are leading the premier league in tackles?

mizzell, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 19:25 (fourteen years ago)

Truly. I'm excited for the Gold Cup tbh.

winning some tackles, a little more assertive so far than i'd figured

Captain Guzan

was that ream with the catlike bounce-up after losing that tackle?

gaven has a pretty sick beard too

fwiw: lol iirc sb'd u tbqh (dan m), Wednesday, 17 November 2010 20:03 (fourteen years ago)

really excellent persistance from lichaj rogers and bedoya, each of them has run on and on at least once

con suelo, Wednesday, 17 November 2010 20:21 (fourteen years ago)

not a bad half considering
thought they'd get walloped but they haven't been too far out of their depth. center of midfield seems like the weak link.
i have to gif a comical sucky bornstein moment
bob said maybe agudelo in at the half. bunbury. spector:( for yellow lichaj?

Hope he can stay with the Fire a little longer, Euros are gonna take note of the dude for sure.

Yevgeni/Evgeni/Eugene Starikov joins the camp. is he any good?
http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE70646N20110107

mizzell, Friday, 7 January 2011 19:10 (fourteen years ago)

he's young and plays far away. tomsk is in siberia for real. he's a zenit guy on loan, maybe will be sold. found some form at the end of this past RPL season. basically i have no idea but i'm looking fwd to seeing him.

harlan, Friday, 7 January 2011 19:16 (fourteen years ago)

when asked what he missed most about the USA, starikov said "skittles. they're not the same here." lol he is a kid.

harlan, Friday, 7 January 2011 19:17 (fourteen years ago)

I am intrigued by this guy too, but also in the former Germany U17 captain we seem to have sniped, Fabian Huerzeler. Second player listed in this article:

mizzell, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:23 (fourteen years ago)

Let's hope so, we're going to need him to stop Chicharito in the Gold Cup.

dan m, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 17:27 (fourteen years ago)

nice to notice that my remote dvr controls online thinks that this event, titled 'futbol,' is not 'sports,' but that teen wolf, showing at the same time, is.

He looked right good at the world cup, surprised no other opportunities have opened up for him

gtfopocalypse (dan m), Wednesday, 9 February 2011 16:17 (fourteen years ago)

good stuff. najar on twitter asking what country he should play for was pretty lol

it's a great day to be great, baby (harlan), Wednesday, 9 February 2011 19:44 (fourteen years ago)

Is that where Grant Wahl said he got robbed in Honduras, so Najar should play for the US? I heard something about it, didn't realize it was on twitter.

gtfopocalypse (dan m), Wednesday, 9 February 2011 20:04 (fourteen years ago)
