U.S Men's Olympic Team

2008-07-18T02:02:00+00:00

The U.S. Men's National Team for this year's Olympic games was announced today and it contains a great list of some very talented players. Coach Peter Nowak made some excellent choices, especially with the 3 over age 23 players that he is allowed to select in Brian McBride, Brad Guzan, and Michael Parkhurst.

McBride to Join U.S. Olympic team

2008-07-18T00:54:00+00:00

The "old man" of US football raised American hopes of a decent Olympic tournament as Brian McBride was listed on Peter Nowak's roster of American under 23 talent.

Brian joins future Aston Villa goalkeeper Brad Guzan and New England Revolution defender Michael Parkhurst as one of the three over-age players allowed in the under-23 tournament.

US Olympic roster - Guzan, McBride and Parkhurst overage Olympians

2008-07-17T20:08:00+00:00

Peter Nowak has released his 18 man roster for Beijing and there are not a lot of surprises. As expected, Nowak went with Bad Guzan in goal and McBride up top. Both will give the team much needed depth in their positions with McBride providing a little bit more then Guzan.

The overage selection that could benefit the most from this experience is New England's Michael Parkhurst.

Open Cup 2008 Primer

The 2008 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup begins tomorrow for MLS teams. Eight qualifiers will take on eight lower league clubs in what is always one of the single most exciting days of the season. Last year was not the greatest year for MLS in the tournament, as only 3/8 teams advanced. One of those 3, the Rapids, then lost 5-0 in the quarterfinals to Seattle.

CCCO8 Semis: Strategery Before the Second Leg

I think that sums it up nicely. The general mood of optimism going into the CONCACAF Champions Cup semifinals renders the funk looming over the second leg all the more blue. I'll be surprised - and, for the record, damned happy - if either DC United or the Houston Dynamo make the final. It'd [...]

So I really am tickled pink that Dynamo has resigned Brian Mullan, their 2007 co-MVP. (Story here and Dynamo's press release here.) I expected no less for the guy that makes the right side go.
