    I suppose I don't watch enough soccer... but every time I watch the USMNT, it seems that this Michael Bradley fellow is a liability.

    Am I just way off? Is he really one of the best US players out there?

    Without Bobby Wood, Dempsey looks uninterested. Wondo doesn't fight for the ball like Wood. Wood created so much by just running.

    Beckerman also looks to be just watching and not fighting like Jones..

    Edit: Wondo sucks.

    That was amazing.

    And further proof that Wondo should never have made the team.

    So I guess that Messi guy is pretty good at soccer.

    1-0 seems impossible to come back from 2-0 is even harder.

    Upset? They'd be the favorite even if the US wasn't missing 2 starters.

    I also love how you can hear the disappointment in the commentators voices, as if Argentina wasn't expected to lead the USA.

    I refuse to believe a human can kick a soccer ball into a space that small from that far away.

    That's his shtick. He says that every game. goes on a patriotic spasm before he picks the USA to win despite the odds.

    Not that bad. He isn't an idiot. Every thing leading up to his pick to win is pretty even tempered and objective. He just goes crazy and picks USA all the time for LOLs
