Amen. I cringed through the whole match. They were an embarrassment. They never showed up. The commentator (here in Europe) remarked that they looked like schoolboys showing up for a friendly. Ugh. They had no aggression, no drive, no NOTHING. Italy-Ghana may have ended 2-0, but they PLAYED, and they were both impressive. We're so going to exit in the 1st round.

I think Landon Donavan is a priss, DaMarcus Beasley is over-rated, and Claudio Reyna is too old.

We need to get a Euro with attitude in here to be our next coach.

I think if Klinsmann succeeds with Germany, then he would be the logical choice to be the US Coach in 2010. He lives in California, and has an American wife. He is still a little green as a coach, but he's got some interesting ideas about training, and he knows how soccer needs to be played at the next level. It might not be a good fit with the more conservative German soccer crowd, but it just might be the shot in the arm the US team needs. We'll see.
