    2014 World Cup Qualifying

    USA! USA! USA!




    When a tie means more that kissing your sister.

    Big point for us. Poor Mexico sitting in 5th place right now while we are tied for second.

    I thought the US is in second and Mexico is in a 3-way tie for third?

    Either way, long way to go.

    A few changes with three matches today. US/Honduras/Costa Rica in three way tie for second. Panama in first place. With three teams advancing and the fourth playing New Zealand, at this point Mexico is in fifth place and out of the World Cup. Sure there are matches left but when it comes to USA Soccer I take any victory I can, especially when Mexico is involved.

    Would have watched, but, like everything else, it's not meant to be when you have to be up at freakin' 5am every morning.

    It was not easy to watch. Mexico easily won possession and every time I blinked they were attempting another corner kick. Our defense was great, especially considering we had a couple young inexperienced players on the back line (they are top of the line MLS players but little National experience). If you wanted an idea about the offense, imagine Dean Smith running the old four corner stall offense that was lucky to string together 5 passes in a row. Mexico needs to get rid of those horrendous black jerseys and go back to the classic green.

    US on top now. Solid win over Panama and a terrific crowd in Seattle.

    Yep, looks like getting Eddie Johnson on the pitch paid off. Things looking good for the US.

    Better chance than Canada. USA USA USA! Everything depends on the draw and hopefully we wont have to face Ghana. Making it to the knockout round would be expected by most fans. Getting back to the Quarterfinals would be great. Anything beyond that is gravy.

    Let's hope we play a wee bit better than the last match against Costa Rica.
