Strongly considering an Aron Bacon jersey after this.

Bacon?? Best nickname ever!

Posted from a job interview where I just took an assessment and the next part doesn't start until 12:30 so I'm just sitting her in an interview room alone.

Hopefully American stud Julian Green gets some playing time in the last 11 league games BM have. They clinched the title already.

“@PCarrESPN: Geoff Cameron: 2 goals in 65 Premier League games.

Jozy Altidore: 2 goals in 54 Premier League games.”

FIFA has approved change of nationality for Julian Green--he's eligible to play for USMNT immediately.

Think we'll see him in the Mexico friendly on April 2.

That is the widely accepted rumor I've been hearing.

That we'll see him against Mexico? I don't see why we wouldn't.

apparently his dad is close to gaining citizenship, which would then make his path easier..

John Brooks gets the start against Bayern Munich, trying to prevent the club from clinching the Bundesliga. In March. #GoodLuck #USMNT

Wow I think I like this over in Europe. Could never work in CONCACAF but makes European international football a lot more interesting outside of the Euros every other year.

Beasley and Orozco denied release by Puebla for the Mexico friendly.

I think we'll see Parkhurst at LB and either Beltran or Yedlin at RB. Hopefully Yedlin. The Yedlin/Sarkodie RB battle for 2018 will be fun.

I think we see this:

---------------Rimando---------------
Yedlin---Gonzalez----Besler---Parkhurst
--------Beckerman---Bradley----------
Zusi-----------Dempsey-------Donovan
---------------Johnson----------------

I'm not sure who I'd play out of Wondo/EJ. Neither are in form although to be fair, EJ hasn't gotten any service whatsoever at DC yet. That's a pretty strong lineup though. I like Edu better than Beckerman, but I think Beckerman starts.

scottwildcat · « **Reply #2247 on:** March 31, 2014, 04:49:53 PM »

That's what I'm expecting

ChiComCat · « **Reply #2248 on:** March 31, 2014, 05:01:50 PM »

Any idea if Green will play?

I'll be shocked if he doesn't.

I'm thinking of wrecking threads everywhere until this shit gets fixed or I get banned, should I?
