I'm interested in Spain vs Tahiti the same way I'm interested in a car wreck during a NASCAR race. It could be 15-0.

HA! Probably thought the same was going to happen when they played Haiti too?

How about when Haiti played Italy? :)

But...yeah...probably not going to be too thrilling...

Jozy has been on fire as of late. Loving it.

I wish we were able to have a Seattle crowd at every game. Seattle crowd at the home base here in Columbus would be awesome.

What's up with the Brazilian crowd? Pretty quiet. No chants or anything. It's like a baseball crowd.

Caleb Porter-led Portland Timbers are now unbeaten in their last 13 and are just two points out of 1st place in the West (and the whole league) after picking up 3 points over #1 Dallas yesterday.

Rio Tinto will probably be an awesome place tonight. A buddy of mine is there tonight.

Big match tonight.

US Soccer twitter usually announces the starting lineup first (or close to first); hasn't been posted yet. https://twitter.com/ussoccer

Poor start from the US, Honduras is pushing the ball toward Timmy better thus far.

Starting to get the pressure up now, though. Good chance from Eddie Johnson

Like what I'm seeing out of Eddie Johnson, strange how he had regressed and not even made the 2010 WC roster.

Would love to see them net one before the half ends!
