James you’re right but about smoken La but that was before he did the smu thing putting players who have no clue how to play with the big boys. Don’t you know smu is butt cheeks are chapped for SH making SMU look bad now.

What ever happened to Fichera? He may be a possibility for left back….just a thought.

Yeah, cuz all he did was lose to LA and TFC before getting completely overmatched by a crap Columbus team and even lost to the bad KC team.

Oh, wait. He smoked LA, beat TFC in Toronto (only team to do that), had the best team in the league right now on the ropes at home before they pulled a win out of their A, and then held on for a tie against a desperate team while we were playing down a man.

Yeah, he has no clue.

I’m still not loving Hyndman and the whole way he runs things.

Has he worked out these guys are pro’s yet with more experience at that level than him? Is he over-compensating for that? Kind of a career-napoleon complex?

To Pidgeon… You might want to actually watch an RBNY match before you make a comment on their keeper situation. The way that team is currently playing, they’re not in desperate need of anything, as the new additions made by Osorio have all worked out pretty well so far. Conway has been solid for them all season long – more than solid, really, considering this is his 1st season as undisputed #1 – and it wasn’t his fault he got hung out to dry by the team in front of him a couple of times. The stats seem to bear that out, as well, as Conway has just as many shutouts as Super Dario (6), which happens to be one more than both Onstad and Reis.

Oh, okay Buzz…I listened to a podcast of Bradley’s telecon after he announced the roster for the Guatemala game and no question was asked about Cooper’s omission. Maybe USSF edited the podcast *black helicopters*

Bradley just announced the roster for the next two WCQs, and still no Cooper.

The Cooper thing comes down to discipline and the time to get into camp to show Bob he has turned a new leaf.

The last time Cooper was in camp, he wasn’t where he is now as a player. I think it is as simple as there hasn’t been a camp long enough for Bradley to bring Cooper in for a look. The camps he has had have been short-turnarounds and I don’t think Bradley thinks he can waste bringing in someone who may or many not work out.

On the other hand, what exactly is Eddie Johnson bringing to the table that Cooper couldn’t?

Ricardinho was kicked off the bus.

Rocha threw a tantrum and went to the locker room instead of sitting on the bench after being taken out at the 60th min of the KC game.
