Seriously, the VP was elected?

US Soccer is a total disaster, jesus christ

Like how the **** is this even possible that we didn't clean house immediately? We were scarily close to Gulati being re-elected, too.

I just read on twitter that Gulati is stil on the board. Is that true?

There are a lot of people making very good money off the backs of middle class soccer families in this country. If you have the right accent, you will make a killing over here.

Oh, and by the way, the new President of USSF was just “introduced” to the sport 10 years ago. Never played, coached, or even had a kid play the sport. The guy who “introduced” him to the sport, Sunil Gulati.

And those people had 25% of the vote. Like I said before, USSF has a lot more on it's plate than the USMNT.

They certainly do. Because it's always awesome to milk white people out of $$$ to maintain the status quo instead of actually taking care of the entire system and actually concentrating on improving the quality at all levels.

The voting was a loltastic spectacle. The day of and people still weren't sure of how the process worked. They were trying to figure out if it went to a 3rd vote how many people would be removed from the ballot.

Then people didn't know how to use the voting remotes. They weren't sure if you press a # or press a # then send. The original 1st vote was canceled cuz only 400/500 voted

IDK why I never put two and two together here, but I should've posted this link ITT ages ago. My two buddies run a nonprofit in DC helping low income kids get access to higher level soccer programs. They've done really well and it's grown a lot over the last 8 years. Check it out just to see what they're doing, and if you feel so compelled, donate.

It's crazy how good he's playing. Even though he didn't get credit it was his shot that forced the defenders OG last week

Is it Hamburg that's terrible or is Wood just not a top tier player?

I remember him crushing it in Bundesliga 2

I wouldn't write off anyone yet for sucking at HSV, but he's not even in the squad this week, dropped for Sven Schipplock who's a fringe Bundesliga player himself

Bobby Woods bull-in-a-china shop style doesn’t work against good defenders. He’s not 15% lukaku

No reason we should ever be declining an invitation to Copa America and bringing our A-Team and taking it extremely seriously

I dunno man, I'm all for something completely different. Let Pulisic and McKennie each draft a team of their peers, have them compete with each other in a full match earn the spot in Copa America, send one team to CA and the other to the Gold Cup. Can't be any worse than the **** we did last cycle.
