I'm watching the match at my house and let me say now what I've been saying the past 10 days -- get Claudio Reyna out of the lineup. I hope he's not hurt really bad, but finally the U.S. midfield can attack without him clogging things down -- his time has passed at the international level.

Of course as I type this a bogus PK has been issued by the German referee and it's going to be 2-1 Ghana at halftime.

Marcelo Balboa just stated that he didn't "realize how fast the Ghanaians would be".

WTH??? What did you think? I just lost any respect I had for the long-haired one!

AirMaddox, though I agree with your comments, Ghana did me a personal favor by ending this miserable showing in Germany by the U.S. at three matches.

Terrible! Disgusting! Pathetic!

2006, 0-2-1 in Germany
1998, 0-3-0 in France

The next World Cup scheduled for Europe might need to be bypassed by the Yanks. Laying an egg at the world's largest stage once again after a promising showing in Korea/Japan in 2002 with a 2-2-1 mark and Quarterfinals appearance.

Poor coaching and preparation by Bruce Arena and Company and pitiful team selection this year. More to come after I settle down.

Here's what I'm sick of:
1) The lack of offensive creativity and aggressiveness
2) Very one demensional in the attack (long balls)
3) Stupid mistakes from the defense that led to both goals
4) Beasley in the midfield, should be uptop running at the defense
5) The lack of quality of crosses on set plays
