Friends and family in the NC mountains. Praying for everyone.
Five Guys has great 🍟
@adam I've been thinking Drake might be a better option recently too.

Pete insisting on calling Stuttgart a mid table Bundesliga team triggers me a lot.
It’s pronounced Fo-LAHR-in Balogun. See his early interview after joining USMNT. Emphasis on second syllable. Just saying lol.
Thanks, nice to see the younger players delivering.
I live in cali. Yea in n out is good for a slightly fast food place. It’s not full blown like McDonald’s but still
My girl and I finally tied the knot on Friday after being together 13 years. Freddy's Frozen Custard and Steakburgers have the best fries imo.
I'm the same age as you…
I'm a unc asheville grad pete. I've only been able to contact 1 friend. It is very worrying
Bobby Wood played for the US in 2018 and scored three goals out of 8 appearances. Claiming that it's been 10 years is basically literally doubling how long it's been in order to make it seem like an eternity. 10 years ago would be 21 years old, and the US made a major mistake in cleaning house after losing one game to Trinidad off two fluke goals. Even Jozy Altidore was denied like 7 years of national team appearances in his prime from age 27-34. That was a major mistake. Either way, you need to learn your facts. Making up that someone hasn't played for the US for 10 years when they would've been 21 is quite the defamation and quite the lie. You need to find something else to do besides covering soccer and making weird comments about me. Nobody who matters likes you or wants you around.
In and out is more plain. Yes McDonalds on fries.
I think it's funny how Mexican want to compare Pochettino with Aguirre.
Burger Me in Reno and Truckee
TELL'EM PETE! It's not that In'N'Out is overrated, rather overhyped. Like any time that Luciano Acosta does anything for Cincinnati, and all the MLS fanboys scream for him to be part of the USMNT. Yeah, he's good…for MLS. And MLS is def the fast food of the soccer world.
Pulisic leads the Serie A golden boot race as of today
I still dont understand how Guzan is starting over Cohen
Poch’s first roster should be interesting.
I’d say Pulisic is a notch down from World Class currently.
Balogun is a great player. His runs behind makes him lethal. There are just things that he could add to his game that would make him undefendable.
"Neal has been bad defensively"
I thought on ball ability was everything now. We need to stop being worried about how well a center back can carry the ball and worry about if he can make a desperate stop on a counter. Can they defend a corner, can the keep up with a fast striker. Are they intelligent enough to know when to lay it off or when to just get the ball out of danger.
Alexi Lalas was not a great on the ball defender but you know what he did good? He was a monster in the air. He hauled his butt back in position when the counter sprung. He put in nasty tackles while staying in control. There was none of this "Oh I'm so fancy i can pass the ball 300 times with 99% accuracy"
We are a team that needs to be direct on offense and no nonsense in defense and transition. launch it long and let Weah and Pulisic chase it. Sargent can get that header that nods it to Reyna or McKennie who then springs it out wide. Enough of this "technically great center backs" I want a physical presence in the box who will bully Mbappe off the ball. Who can make Lukaku look like a child. I want a monster
The Championship doesn't have VAR
As a European I can promise you, Pulisic is an above average winger. Easily a top 20 winger in Europe. The Chelsea move really stunted his development. At Milan he's getting regular starts
Dave’s famous burgers in Long Beach
Why do people still entertain that muppet Collin Reese? He's a USMNT weirdo living in his delulu fantasy.
I still think Joe Scally can be a decent CB. Especially in a back 3 formation. If say Marlon Fassey begins to step up more and more as a potential backup RB, why not try to test Scally at CB. His profile fits well(he is like 6'1 and strong with good speed for a CB) and already has defensive skill set. I think its worth a try
Puli is easily top 10 in his position
