Just win now, two more wow wins probably is enough, 4 games left, 2 more this window.

Coach says we "dominated" Canada despite the loss.

Only 1 game left in this window. Honduras.

Then we finish the final cycle against Mexico, Panama, and Costa Rica. So, basically everyone we're fighting for a spot against.

I feel like we just totally wasted our runway, lost our safety cushion, etc.

Not much room for error at all. Yay white knuckle games!

It's 2 fucking degrees for tonight's game. Good job of freezing out Honduras!

Had to win and we did, feels like we are back in control of our fate. Just need to pick up some road points.

3.24 - Mexico
3.27 - Panama
3.30 - Costa Rica

Winning that first one would be huge.

You like to see it! Looked much better up to this point in the game too. He seems to get better tactical training at Chelsea than the USMNT

That's a pretty slick goal.

At least we're not Italy (yet)

To be fair, I think we need to win a WC before we can be that disappointing.

Speaking of soccer, recently had a conversation with someone involved in youth sports and they were talking about how baseball teams are having trouble finding kids because they're all on soccer teams. So the future looks bright?

Baseball sucks. So if it gets rid of the MLB, I'm all for it!

I dunno, millions of kids have been playing youth soccer for a while.

Usa! Usa!

If we beat Costa Rica, we get the 2 seed, right?

If we lose by less than 6, we get the 3 seed, iirc.

That was an ass whooping.

Off the road enjoying creature comforts of home and office.

Woke and doing a fast, fasting run and repping the squad.

I love them as a country, but we are beating Costa Rican ass today and going to the WC.

I like that jersey.

Hey, do you know a good outlet for soccer jerseys and can they customize them? I want to buy one for our local team (I mean could it be more perfect?), but they don't seem to sell them.

Maybe they only sell them at the stadium?

Ebay has one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/324426649625
