Welcome back to the State of the States. The inescapable US soccer news over the past couple of
weeks has been the bid for the 2022 World Cup and the corresponding fallout from the failure of
that bid. Regardless of allegations of FIFA venality and corruption or USSF's faults, the bid's
failure is a blow to the advancement of soccer in the States.
Once again we will see a number of teams from the region competing in both the AFC Champions
League and the AFC Cup.
Indonesia – Arema (ACL), Sriwijaya (ACL Play Off), Persipura (AFC)
Thailand – Muang Thong United (ACL Play Off), Chonburi (AFC)
Singapore – Tampines Rovers (AFC)
Vietnam – Ha Noi (AFC), Song Lam Nghe An
Nobody from Malaysia!
During his time here, Josh Wolff was a bit of a polarizing figure for the team. It seemed most
people either liked him or hated him, there was very little middle ground. He found the net plenty
for KC (43 of his 75 career league goals came for KC, 46 of his 85 in all competitions came in
blue), but those that didn't like him pointed to his lack of movement on the field and what seemed
to be laziness many times on his part.
Now the A-League Club Owners, and on Branko Culina's case a Manager want to scrap the midweek
games.
But the fans don't. The TV viewing figures are comparable to weekend Fox games and indeed the
midweek games regularly come in the Fox Sports top viewed shows of the week.
And we the fans, well in my straw poll anyway, we love them.
The hero's journey often is a quest for identity. Part affirmation, part reconceptualization, we
must struggle to define ourselves from cradle to grave. In the latest Pusky series, I revealed
little but the question remains: what makes this site special? I recall this site's infancy, when I
planned on covering every inch of the bodies of the US men's national team.
