I meant to link to this the other day but was too busy being infectiously ill to do: ESPN The
Magazine's cautionary tale of Americans Outsourced To Europe™ written by Luke Cyphers and

Jermaine Jones hasn't even suited up for the U.S. yet but for some he has already arrived; he's now
got a mixtape out entitled "Jermaine Jones: The New American Destroyer" by GAGNEnBRIERE. It may be
a little premature since he hasn't even been called up yet but if we're all being honest with
ourselves this is probably the most footage the majority of us have seen of him actually playing.
