If we even qualify

It really is.

In one of the most important matches in a long time, we look like we don't even care.

To be performing like this is embarrassing.

Costa Rica and Mexico are both up at 1/2, so we may backdoor it.

Even if we make it, it's going to be a slaughterfest in the WC.

On the bright side of things, I won't have to figure out how to watch the late night matches...

Honduras is beating Mexico. If we lose, we’re out. And we’re playing with absolutely no sense of urgency.

Yeah. I don't know why I even started caring about this sport. I guess I got sucked in to the USA USA USA thing. We suck at soccer. Let the third world countries have the sport. Back to American Football for me.

I’m surprised Costa Rica hasn’t just kicked the ball in their own net at this point. They have a chance to really screw us over.

Sooo... I'm still kinda a soccer newbie.

Is this the soccer version of shitting the bed?

Poor World Cup just a few million viewers just when the US was starting to give a **** about soccer.

This is the soccer version of not making a bowl game because you lost to South Alabama. Except there isn't any APR to save you.

I think it's worse than losing to Maine.

Basically we had to beat Samford to get to the Meinike Quaker Oats BassMasters FurnitureWorld Bowl and we gave up two TD's in the first half to their backup QB.

I did know there was mucho talk that our team/organization needed to be burnt down and rebuilt.

Gives them 4 years to do so now.

It also still illustrates the point, to me at least, that our best play other sports in this county. The other countries... not so much.

Just think what you could do if you cherry picked the best athletes in our other sports and remade them as soccer players with a lifetime of experience.

I'm at a loss for words.

This is embarrassing, and I only say that bc there isn't a better word.

There was ZERO fight in this team. It's like they didn't even care.

Timmy made a save in the second and had to 17ing chase the ball to the 18.

That is the effort level of a 12 yo YMCA team.

Burn the mother down and start over.

Bring in Tab and cut all of these cats that are over 28.

This is the soccer version of Tech and 10. Absolute rock 17ing bottom. Keep Wood, Yedlin, Pulisic & maybe Arriola. Everyone else needs to go. Gulati, Arena & the rest of the players.

I haven't even been able to watch this abortion of a team play the last 2 years. It's just been painful. And the women's team hasn't been much better the last couple of years. As bad as this is, hopefully this will be the shocking result that leads to real change.

Again.... Why do y'all care so much? This is NOT OUR sport!

Nobody in the world can beat us at American Football. Nobody in the world can beat our BEST at basketball. Nobody in the world can beat our best at baseball. Nobody in the world can beat our best at Women's sports.

Baseball isn't even a sport. Its like soccer....a little thing 7 year olds do and get a participation trophy and juice box.

It's a national embarrassment, that's why I care.
