U.S. Men's National Soccer (Official Thread)

I didn't realize anyone was questioning Megan Rapinoe's sexuality (and I thought it was common knowledge she was gay).

Tell you the truth, it really seems like USA TODAY is turning towards the gossip/TMZ side of sports the past 1-2 years (to try to attract readers).

All I care about is that the moment she steps on the pitch we seem to play at a higher energy level. She is the Chris Jent of women's soccer.

Tickets for U.S. vs. Jamaica, Sept. 11, at Crew Stadium.

The national team will more-than-likely be coming back (to Crew Stadium) for a WC Qualifier against Mexico.

Nice! End line here I come!

That's my reaction, too. Someday, maybe we'll stop giving a shit about who sleeps with whom, but I doubt it.

She's one of my faves on our team.

Damn might have to make it up to Columbus for that.

If you're speaking of the Jamaica game, U.S. Soccer has chosen Crew Stadium to host the World Cup qualifier against Mexico since the stadium opened.

It's not a given (maybe it is) that Crew Stadium will again host the qualifier for 2014, but if one game has to be chosen (and the stadium gets the game), the Mexico game has a better atmosphere & is usually more important.

Or...you could go to both games and help the Ohio economy

Make sure to wear a throwback 1994 USA jersey too (the denim one w/ the stars - which is in a box somewhere in my house).

I'm still looking for a US kit...I really like the 08/09 long sleeve (below) but I can't find it in a Large :(

No, rock this (last time U.S. Soccer was Adidas too)

 

[Mac]

Those are one of a kind....

Just a reminder tickets go on sale in just a little over an hour

Rather sad about the son of former U.S. international Claudio Reyna passing away (at 13-years-old).

Nice for Rangers to pass along their thoughts.

Jack Reyna, the 13-year-old son of longtime former U.S. national team midfielder Claudio Reyna, died on Thursday after a long battle with cancer. Jack Reyna had been diagnosed with a brain tumor three years ago.

 

[Mac]

Very sad to hear :(

Girls going for gold today against the team who beat them in the World Cup title game, Japan.

Over/Under for how many bags of urine are launched at American players Wednesday in Mexico City?

Probably 1.5?

Costa Rica and State College, PA are pretty bad (w/ the urine bag thing) too.

That's just for Landon, right?
