Tell them they can't use Lex Luther because that is an American thing and Europeans can't do that.

Julian Green will not be joining the November #USMNT camp. Klinsmann wants to ease the pressure already building.

Oh well. Isn't happening now. Doesn't mean it won't later.

I think we should all pray, it will probably work.

Probs not. I refuse to give in though. It didn't look like we had a shot at Aron or Brooks for awhile too. Then, out of nowhere, we got them.

Soccerex Global Convention cancelled in Rio de Janeiro.  Many hardline groups are promising violence for the World Cup.


I guess this just shows how much bribery went into getting the games into a corrupt place.

Even if there are riots in Brazil it will be nothing compared to the crap that will go down in racist, homophobic Russia and even more homophobic Qatar.

Yeah the crap in Qatar is getting out of control.  Slave labor, yeah thats always a good thing for international sporting events designed to build internationalism.

dobber jr.'s Ninjas finished the fall season with one last tournament this last weekend. Took home the silver, winning four games and losing in the finals. Two of the wins went to penalty shootouts. It was pretty crazy.

There was also a bullying issue, but I won't discuss that here.

He had an injured leg and the coach made him watch, which had dobber jr. furious. He played both games on Sat and scored 3 goals, but coach was afraid the pressure of the PK's along with the hip may be a bad combination. The Ninjas have enough players that can put PK's away that it wasn't a big risk to set him, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed he didn't get to take his shots.
