    Altidore had an MRI yesterday, but I haven't seen results reported anywhere. I'd have to guess he has little to no shot of even dressing tonight.

    ferrari...I agree with you completely. It will be between Sasha and Bedoya. I just have a feeling that Bedoya is going to get the call. Then again, I couldn't be surprised if Bradley benched Dempsey & Donovan while starting Freddie Adu and Gooch in the middle.

    They apparently have the results but don't want to release them until they notify his club, which doesn't sound good.

    Is Onyewu hurt or is he just not good anymore? He hasn't played at all; don't even think he has been listed as a sub.

    Yup. I guess word is out now that he's out for the rest of the tourney with the hamstring injury.
    I hope but I doubt Bradley will play Donovan up top. Perhaps he'll go with Dempsey up top with Agudelo. I wouldn't mind Donovan and Dempsey up top with Bedoya and Kljestan getting another opportunity to start in midfield.

    I think his form dropped a bit but I won't say he's not good anymore. His form hasn't been great since he returned from the knee injury last year. That gave Bradley an opportunity to start Ream or give him more playing time. Personally I'm a bigger fan of Omar Gonzalez than I am of Tim Ream but we'll see how they pan out. I would figure Bradley will go with Boca and Goodson in the center of defense again.

    Altidore out 4-6 weeks.

    I think we'll see a similar lineup to last time but with Agudelo starting and Donovan in for Bedoya or maybe Kljestan. The way Dempsey plays he has the freedom to move up when he can and act as a second forward.

    Thanks bro, couldn't pass up on a chance to see games that are closest to the World Cup in Houston for the time being. So excited!

    Hey guys, what's would be the best time to leave? You know, to avoid traffic and all that good stuff. Should be different traffic considering how many people are going up there.

    So are there no black Mexican players?

    All the central American teams have them.


    Just wondering. I dont know what the percentage of African Mexicans there are in Mexico.
