    Altidore was running in practice today. That's good news.

    I still wish they would have included Donovan on the roster.

    Donovan has been terrible and out of shape all mls season. I appreciate what he's done for USA soccer. But IMO the options that they have now are better than LD now.

    It would be hilarious if Brazil lost.

    Does a shoot out involve actual gun play?

    The guy has been so money for us in the World Cup though. You're much more knowledgeable about Futbol than I, but LD has always struck me as a guy who elevates his game at the highest level.

    He def has elevated his game in the past for USMNT... But there are a loooooot of miles on those legs. He played a lot when mls was in offseason. He's still a good player but IMO the national play on World Cup level has passed him up.

    Given the venue, that would have been one of the most dramatic goals in world cup.

    Who you for wheels?

    I love a good upset, but Brazil being the home team and the energy/drama they will continue to bring to the world cup, I'm for Brazil to move on. But major respect for Chile . . . can't say they don't deserve it if they win.

    Yeah it's hard to imagine a world power losing this early at home. Crazy stuff. No better sporting event in the world than this tournament!
