Any suggestions from the Nation as to what to call the other competitions' round-ups? Weekly Women's World Cup Whangdoodle? Europa League Examination? US Open Cup
I see its a doubleheader of MLS action on ESPN2 tonight
You missed the U-17 World Cup. Our boys got embarrassed by Germany 4-0 in the Round of 16.
Also let me point out another draw for the Fire. They are setting themselves up to be the drawingest team ever.
Good catch on Fulham. I half-remembered that they had a game coming up after it happened. Clint didn't play though, and I think Jol is confident the England boys can take care of the mighty Faroe Islanders.
I didn't get to watch the Sounders game yesterday, so I don't know how the scoreline got to be 0-0, but from a distance, I'll take a draw in LA pretty much under any circumstances.
