I've had an account from the Sounders CONCACAF run last year, it's just that my bandwidth it getting eaten up right now, so I wasn't even sure if the low quality would work, but it does.

edit: Amazingly, the US did not score while I was typing that post.

I'm most excited about the fact that they're using a Nike ball. That could mean that CONCACAF finally got rid of the crap Puma balls.

Oh, 11-0.

Wow, the Canadian announcers have totally turned against the US. Mostly the fact that Pia Sundhage is celebrating every goal like it's a World Cup winner. Can't really fault them for that though.

I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.
I was at a bar. I saw a scoreline that said 14-0. I assumed it was a football (the american kind) game of some kind. Then I saw soccer. WHAAA?!? I really wish I'd been around to watch this game. That's a goal every 6.5 minutes. Craziness. You'd think they would have just stopped at some point.

I would assume so, yes. Even if he doesn't get as much recognition in the US as he should, he is still doing huge things. Just look at his twitter!

It's actually a lot closer then I thought it was in terms of Premier league-only stats.

Dempsey 209 games across all competitions (169 EPL), 52 goals (42 EPL).
McBride 154 games across all competitions (140 EPL), 41 goals (33 EPL).

Mandon has an insane scoring record for the nats though.

Not really.

46 in 138 is a .33 goals per game rate.

Dempsey has 24 in 82 for a .29 goals per game rate.

Add the fact that Donovan takes all of the penalties and you'll probably find that Dempsey has a higher conversion rate from open play.

Doesn't hurt that until he started taking winter vacations at Goodison, he's normally been available for every goofball game we've played since he turned pro. [LD and CD are still the best male fielders we've produced to date, no matter what]

Nope. MCL and ACL. 6-8 months.

Excellent point. Dempsey probably only went to two cupcake camps.

Benny with the most caps out of that group at 38. Also, Jones as captain just means he gets to argue with the ref when he gets carded. Should be interesting to watch.
