  1. That beats Ibramovich’s debut Golazo. Wow.
  2. Hope you went to Le Blanc. Best adult only all inclusive around. Private butler service is top notch. We did Le Blanc and it was awesome. Wife is Celiac and it delivered at every restaurant (other than pizza). Pool was great, beach was just OK, but that's normal for that part of Cabo, spa was awesome. Really enjoyed it.
  3. Saw Taylor Swift in Denver Friday night at Mile High with the family. I could give or take her music, but the show was nails. Kids had a blast and the scenery was awesome. And perhaps it is upthread somewhere but the Moody Center calendar this fall is awesome. Just saw The National got booked for 11/17.
  4. Honestly it has to be weird for him being in a country where it’s 50/50 whether he will be ignored or mobbed. Granted, Miami is different, but if Messi walked into an Austin Central Market with a Criquet shirt, jeans and some dad ON Clouds, would anyone turn a head?
  5. Radiohead post-OK Computer sucks. It’s boring noisy crap and people that think it’s good are just trying to hang with their pitchfork fart smelling douchebag idols. Did I do it right?
  6. Man, would love to see Whitmore prevent us from stashing him in the G League. When are we jettisoning KPJ? Unless he wants to play the role the Clippers have lined up for Westbrook (and a way worse version of that) I really don’t need him stealing minutes from anyone next year.
  7. Didn’t they explain this? They can’t risk the Skrulls getting their DNA. (although it appears the Big Bad got a little Groot up in him.

    I would have been fine with Miazga and Yedlin for veteran presence. That is all that was needed though. We brought another 4 of those guys - Long, Roldan, Morris, and Gressel that honestly we need to move past. Sean Johnson lol. Like the guy; but that was one of the worst lineup mistakes I’ve ever seen n the event Gaga gets loose due to lack of PT. Unlikely, but let’s not leave any doubt. I agree with whoever said bring some more kids from the U-20 team behind Cowell to fill those spots.

    Great to see Redes get on the board. Keller can’t play anymore. Seems like a good kid but this is a different speed. He gets beat then knocks the goalie down. Almost had an own goal as well. Get Craig on the field.

    I wish Busio had 2 more inches and 25 more pounds. Like that guy. But he’s basically a Gold Cup player.

    I like Yedlin. Forgot he was on the squad.

    The problem with this lineup given the way they’ve been playing is there is absolutely no one coming off the bench that excites me, particularly if Morris plays the way he did against Canada.

    5-4-1 is such chickenshit soccer.

    Long is just so so bad. Do NYRB fans like him on their team. Last good Aaron Long USMNT game where he rates higher than a 5?

    So where does Brandan Craig fit in? It seems he is pretty green, but played well in Argentina. Can't tell if he's a CB, outside back or CDM. If that last one, seems he'd be buried a bit. Maybe plan is to do kinda what Ring has been doing for us?

    May be wrong but I think that was halftime. edit: nm. Just read tweet.

    Are they not both tall, direct, left wingers? I get Cowell played up top some in U-20 World Cup but he’s LW at San Hose and Hoppe played that spot just this last January for USMNT. In any event, they both seem good and strong on the ball but just lacking that last bit of skill our A team has. Will be interested to see if Hoppe gets any run this year back at Middlesbrough or if he is stuck in Scotland again.

    Am I wrong to think Cowell looks a lot like Matt Hoppe did that summer he got a ton of run with USMNT? I remember liking that dude back them - lots of great runs, strong on ball, often can’t complete the play. That’s not a knock on Cowell. I remember really liking Hoppe that summer. He seemed to hit a wall fast given he’s stuck in non-Rangers/Celtic Scotland now.

    I like Busio. He’s tiny but he’s been effective this tourney.

    Lima!!!!!!! Finally!!!!
  24. So after Brooks, the Aussie and these trades what do we have left to spend? One of you cap nerds is keeping track. Generally speaking, the floor and ceiling for this team are about as wide as I have ever seen. Outside of injuries, we aren’t likely doing better than Denver, LAL, Phoenix, GS and probably Sac. But we could be anywhere from 5th to second to last in conference if things go really badly. If we have the right dudes and coach, no reason we can’t pull something akin to Sactown of last year or Memphis 2 years ago kind of leap.

    Robbie Robertson is challenging Zardes for ineptness with the ball at his feet in/near the box.
