Mexico-U.S. World Cup Qualifying Preview

Apparently dodgeball-playing Cuauhtemoc Blanco and the Mexicans are loose ahead of their critical game with the U.S. Wednesday. (AP Photos).

I'll update this post as events warrant and kickoff nears.

The essentials: The 1 p.m. game is in Spanish on Telemundo and in English on little known cable channel mun2, which has a free preview on DirecTV channel 203 and Dish channel 838, while Time Warner will also preview the channel.
