I think Bob Bradley has it in for me personally.
I truly, truly just cannot believe this roster.
The list for the U.S. national team's friendly against Brazil next Tuesday night at the Meadowlands
in New Jersey.....
GOALKEEPERS: Tim Howard (Everton), Brad Guzan (Aston Villa).

Here is today's money quote from none other than the current reigning Greatest American Hero (which
I found on the always excellent du Nord:
"If you're in Denmark or Norway or Sweden, you're playing a little bit or you're on the
bench, that's not helping you. If you're playing in MLS every week, that's a lot better than
playing a minor role on some team in Europe.

Funniest own goal ever @ Yahoo! Video
Truly, truly amazing. Here's the down-low lowdown from the Emerald Isle, where this piece of
brilliance took place (via Yahoo):
An Irish football league player has scored a surefire candidate for the unluckiest own
goal of all time.

My favorite is "Some Guy in Arkansas."
As for me, I was at home with Playtherapy and my two sons. At 1055 a.m. Central, I had a voice. At
10:58 a.m. Central: No voice.
Playtherapy's idea at about the 85 minute mark was for us to take our jerseys off and wear them
inside out.

If you've not seen this series, then as an American leading into the World Cup, you owe it to
yourself to do so. Very nice job from all concerned. Sit down and enjoy.

Amid all the bad news surrounding all things Orange this week, I think it's about time to remember
this is a game that we all love very dearly. So here's the song Waka Waka: This Time for Africa,
one of the official World Cup anthems, sung by Shakira.
(Shakira and football at the same time.

That right there is Fredy the Flopper in Seattle's new third jersey, kind of a Mountain Dew,
making-love-in-a-canoe ("you-know-what-ing close to water) yellow thing. You can read about it at
this link right here.
In this very space, there have been many discussions about Dynamo potentially unveiling a third
jersey.

From Dynamo Supporters Alliance majordomo Eric Nordstrom:
Nothing rhymes with Orange
But I'm Orange til I die
From far away
once came to play
and always fight ... See More
like champions
there's nothing we can rhyme with
so we have to make it up
but Nothing Rhymes with Orange
May the Orange win the Cup!

One thing's for sure, when Dynamo leave for the jungle wilds of Frisco this week, they'll be
properly motivated.

Just saw this on the WV Hooligan blog that Dynamo just traded to get the rights to Adrian Serioux.
(And click here for the Toronto Sun's story on the deal.)
Personally, I think this is a great move as it really shores up the Route 1 defense while Geoff
Cameron finds his footing in the CAM role.

NEW Pelada Trailer from Rebekah Fergusson on Vimeo.
I have heard so much about this move Pelada (formerly known as The Soccer Project), and was further
intrigued when I heard Glenn Davis talk about it on his show the other night.
If you haven't heard of it, the movie was filmed in over 25 countries and follows two former
college players, Notre Dame's Luke Boughden and Duke's Gwendolyn Oxenham -- and filmed by fellow
Dukies Rebekah Ferguson (herself a Blue Devil captain) and Ryan White (producer) -- around the
world as they kick the ball, any ball, around with firemen, prisoners, bootleggers and anyone else
they can find.

David Agrell at the MLS Insider says Dom's not scared, so why should anyone else be? Well, to look
further into that question after reading Agrell's great piece (see it here), I think there are no
reasons why DYNAMO fans should be scared. But the rest of the league? They may just start seeming
to the team like each of them looks like a certain Harris County Commissioner.
