USYNT U20s lost in penalty kicks last night in their World Cup. Good showing by the team, in terms of results. A lot of discussion has been made about "is Tab Ramos the right guy for the job?" I watched up through regulation last night and the U20s were struggling. They were without 2-3 players (a couple starters) due to injury. It will be interesting to watch this group of players develop through the years.

Zach Steffen could be the next Tim Howard. He'd be my choice as a 3rd goalkeeper right now for any international competitions. Get that experience and leave the "has beens" home.

What an immature and stupid move by Dempsey to rip up the refs notebook. Depending on what the USSF does he is looking at a 3 month minimum suspension for referee assault. Which means he would miss the Gold Cup. Idiot.

Ripping up a book doesn't seem like assault to me...

It may not be assault but in the rules it is:

By grabbing and destroying the referee's property, Dempsey crossed a line that no player, much less a player of his caliber and reputation, should cross. U.S. Soccer Federation policy states that "damaging the referee's uniform or personal property" is considered referee assault, which draws a minimum three-month ban.

Surprised nobody is talking about the biggest bitch boy of them all (Neymar) getting suspended for head butting a player in a copa America loss to Columbia.

I was about to say I didn't know you played pro soccer. Neymar still isn't quite the bitch boy you are

That's so hypocritical coming from someone who talks a lot about golf but isn't a pro either. Still waiting for you to take me up on my $1,000 a hole challenge I've proposed to you on multiple threads. It would be very enjoyable to kick the shit out of you on the course.

Geezus classy, this is even bad for somebody like you, who has no mental capacity to be witty. I almost feel bad at how inept* you are in life sometimes. You failed on the first try and then you tried to top it off with the same "zing." You would have just been better off saying "No, you're a bitch!!"

Have to think if Wambach is in its 1-0. Germany is going to regroup and make a real run at this game

Have to play Abby the whole game I think. Missed some huge chances with such poor striking early on. PK seemed like a total gift

Abby is too slow and too old to play an entire game in that formation. Alex just needs to get some more confidence and reps so she can finish.

Wambach would have not got to that through ball to Morgan. She's way too slow.

Heartbreaking for England as they played a lot better than Japan.

Well playing the Japanese again. Hope to get some revenge this time around.
