This is what it can be
It is hard to remember in the moment, especially when that is the first moment of a qualifier like last night against Costa Rica and the USMNT is giving up yet another stupid goal before coming back for a 2-1 win and you haven’t even cracked that beer that you’re firing against the wall, that this w...
We said depth would be the main thing
If it feels like World Cup qualifiers are boomeranging right back into your consciousness after not much of a break from the last ones, you’re not alone. This is the normal calendar, you just had a year off from it thanks to the pandemic, but just wait until qualifiers are crammed into January and F...
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times
At halftime last night, you could forgive any USMNT fan for thinking they had never left 1997. I know I did. Here we all were, too late on a school night, watching a US team getting paddled in Central America with the crowd going nuts and the American manager looking utterly clueless and his players...
We totally forgot that this USMNT hasn’t played very well
Perhaps I doomed them last Wednesday when I told my editor the US Men’s National Team would qualify for the World Cup easily. The power of the motherfuck grows every day. That won’t comfort anyone, especially me, as the US has certainly stubbed its toe in its first two qualifiers, even if it hasn’t ...
Mama said there’d be days like this
I kind of knew that being so jonesed about the U.S.’ first qualifier would lead to something of a dry-heave of a game last night. This is CONCACAF, after all. Winning on the road is incredibly hard. It’s even harder when you’re taking a squad full of players that haven’t been on the road in CONCACAF...

How do you solve a problem like Weston McKennie?
There are about 400 lessons that fans could have learned about the U.S. Men’s National team last night. And they spread over the entire spectrum of endless hope of things we’ve never imagined to complete and total disaster we’re sadly all too familiar with. Projecting this team into the future, beca...
Josh Sargent Inches Ever Closer To Wonderteenhood With Nifty Goal
This is an urgent communiqué from the American Wonderteen Identification Department: Though we have not yet officially identified a player capable of inheriting the title of Wonderteen from Christian Pulisic, various candidates are being strongly considered.

Josh Sargent Makes Strong Case For Wonderteenhood By Scoring On His Bundesliga Debut<em></em>
Redheaded American forward Josh Sargent—probably the first- or second-most likely American teenager to inherit the mantle of “Wonderteen” from Christian Pulisic—has been behind in the pecking order for striker-rich Bundesliga squad Werder Bremen for most of the season. However, this afternoon, the 1...
European Soccer Is Loaded With American Kids Ready To Tear Shit Up<em></em>
American wonderteen Christian Pulisic will begin his march to the 2019 Ballon d’Or this weekend when Borussia Dortmund open their Bundesliga season against RB Leipzig. It’s hard to believe that Pulisic is still only 19, since he’s already got two stellar seasons at Dortmund under his belt and is the...

The St. Louis native has starred for the U.S. U-17 team, the U-20 team, and even...
There's Reason To Hope For The Future Of The USMNT
While the senior members of the United States Men’s National Team are holding their heads in intense shame after getting owned in horrifying public fashion and failing to qualify for the World Cup, the U.S. under-17 national team is killing it. The U-17 group is stocked with some of the hottest pros...
Get To Know Josh Sargent, American Soccer's Next Hot-Shit Prospect
The United States U-20 national team has plenty of big names on respected clubs. Cameron Carter-Vickers will probably get to feature in the vile (and admittedly decent) Tottenham first team next year. Before suffering a devastating ACL injury, Gedion Zelalem looked set to flirt with playing time at ...
American Soccer Teen Scores A Banger Against Mexico
The United States U-17 team is taking on Mexico in the CONCACAF U-17 Championships this evening, and young American forward Josh Sargent kicked things off with a very pretty goal. The Missouri prospect ran onto a long range pass from Blaine Ferri, turned one Mexican defender into a mannequin with a...
