Modric to Chelsea for Beanayoun + Cash? Dont know what the final cash amount will be, but I can see some form this deal going through. Tottenham can use the cash to buy a top flight striker with Yossi taking Modric's place. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2024249/Yossi-Luka-Chelsea-offer-Benayoun-Spurs-seal-Modric-deal.html

No way this deal happens

Ives tweeted that there are as many Mexican league players in US lineup as in Mexico lineup.

Wonder what the deal with Adu is. Can't be in the doghouse already, can he?

 

[NewlyRetired]

I think I got my question answered from before. Garber was quoted as saying Fox bid heavily for both the MLS and US games nut in the end they could not match what NBC was going to do for promotion. NBC is going to be promoting MLS during Notre Dame games and all NHL games.

Looks like no US games on FSC anymore outside of an emergency game or so that no one else can carry.

Ives reported on this earlier. He stated that Adu is literally with out a team and has not had any real practice with other players since the Gold Cup. He was likely brought into the team just to make sure he can get some proper training.

I think this says it best.

This is a very generous offer from Chelski and could make all the difference - Spuds should be very grateful that, in addition to undermining, unsettling and undervaluing Modric by about £25m, Chelski have now offered them an injury-prone, ineffectual, 30+ years old player who wasn't good enough to get into either their first team or Liverpool's.

I really like Benayoun.

I like Ramos stirring the pot here. Makes for a new perspective I don't normally get as I don't speak Spanish.

I can't recall the last time Spurs fielded a Jewish player.

It is on ESPN News and espn3 in English.

I'm stuck in a Hilton Garden Inn watching Little League baseball The only Spanish language channel Telefutura is showing Mexican soap operas. There are four baseball games (one with kids), one WNBA game and two channels showing poker.

Could it be Jurgen Klinsmann of all people?

Tottenham Song:

Chim chiminee, chim chiminee

Chim Chim churoo

Jurgen's a German

But now he's a Jew

Bad programming decision IMO Should have left the baseball game for USMNT

I believe it is a company policy to never leave an event but I may be wrong.

 

[Spartans Rule]

Eto'o is apparently going to that crazy Russian club. Ansky whatever.

Russia is going to be a very interesting league in a couple of years. They have already upped the spending the last few years and are starting to attract talent. They will also be upgrading the stadiums which should produce more revenue for the clubs as part of the infrastructure for 2018.

Russia's current season is kind of interesting. They're synching their calendar up with the rest of Europe and playing a 44-game season over the course of a year and a half, dividing the league into Top 8 and Bottom 8 for the last 14 games.Should be interesting down the stretch as Anzhi tries to overthrow the established powers like Zenit, Rubin and CSKA.

 

[Slapdash]

Wow ESPN sucks for that. Glad to have Univision.

Wonderful cross from Landon off a tough angle. Buddle and Jones both had a chance

 

[scoobygang]

Gotta say Donavan is running his socks off.

hotel bandwidth is slower than Jeff Agoos

I hate watching a single striker system. Must be so frustrating to play up front.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Wow what a spiderman goal.

 

[Native]

Amazing strike!

 

[TLEF316]

Ugh soft goal. Timmy flat footed

Unpossible.

Nice goal by Mexico.

 

[Eephus]

Amazing strike!

I'm watching a team of kids up by 6 runs holding a meeting on the pitcher's mound

I think that beats 99% of the keepers in the world. There is no way he should have shot that ball with Bradley's position IMO.

I was actually talking about the pitcher who threw a nasty curve. Amazing strike!

He's in a hotel, with slow internet. Try to keep up.

Yeah he got his leg around Bradley for the volley. I scored a lucky goal like that once before. It should never happen, but it works if the defender's gets turned around which was the case with Bradley. Goalkeeper has no chance. No keeper in the world can stop a screened flickshot like that to the corner.

Let's hope Beckerman doesn't have a "big future" with the USMNT. Did he really just say that?

I wanna punch Harkes in the mouth.

I am one of the few who likes him it seems. Outside of Sharlie Joseph, Beckerman's has been the best and most consistent dm in the league for a few years now.

I think he's great, just not quite at this level.

US looks outclassed here and back on their heels for most of the match so far.
