Two days after the Comets fought back to defeat the Wichita Wings in a close game at the
Independence Events Center, the Comets found themselves having to do it again against the Wings,
this time in Wichita. Unfortunately the result wasn't the same as the Wings pulled off a 12-10 win
over the Comets to get their first win in the series.

U.S. Soccer released the roster of players called up by Jurgen Klinsmann and there are some
interesting choices. Both Landon Donovan and Kyle Beckerman are on the roster and are apparently
expected to be in camp regardless of whether or not their team makes it to MLS Cup. Reportedly
Klinsmann will be releasing that player after the match against France in order to let them return
to the United States and prepare.
Here is the roster for the 2 upcoming USA friendlies against France and Slovenia-
G:Bill Hamid - DC UnitedTim Howard - EvertonD:Carlos Bocanegra - RangersTimmy Chandler -
NurnbergSteve Cherundolo - HannoverClarence Goodson - BrondbyAlfredo Morales - HerthaMichael Orozco
Fiscal - San LuisOguchi Onyewu - Sporting CPM:Kyle Beckerman - Real Salt LakeMichael Bradley -
ChievoClint Dempsey - FulhamMaurice Edu - RangersFabian Johnson - HoffenheimJermaine Jones -
SchalkeRobbie Rogers - Columbus CrewBrek Shea - DallasDanny Williams - HoffenheimF:Jozy Altidore -
AZDaMarcus Beasley - PueblaEdson Buddle - IngolstadtLandon Donovan - LA Galaxy
Who is not on this list that should be?
Good first half. Familiar lack of finishing. Weak second and predictably punished. The defense did
look better organized (at least until Bocanegra left) though uncomfortable against the quick
counter, something that should have Mexico salivating. Anyway, just a few thoughts...
* Chandler looked really impressive at the problem left back spot.
Herculez Gomez and Tecos will look for their first win of the season when they visit Michael
Orozco's San Luis while Damarucs Beasley and Puebla will look for continued success when they host
Jose Torres and Pachuca.
Luis and I were reminiscing about players who were especially effective versus Mexico, and DaMarcus
Beasley was in the discussion, though he hasn't featured for the USA of late.
This piece updates what he's doing now.
Those rampaging runs up the wing Beasley used to make?

Run DMB has a new club. After failing to make an impact with Hannover 96 last season, Beasley has
come back across the pond and signed. Since MLS couldn't or was unwilling to meet his salary
demands (expected to be $500K+ /season), he moved a little south and joined Puebla in the Mexican
Primera Division.
The Daily Mail had an interesting article today about Clint Dempsey and his future ambitions.
Dempsey said in the article: "Right now I'm thinking about Europe and playing in the Champions
League. That's a goal. Everyone wants to play at the highest level. If someday I get the
opportunity to play for a big club in the Champions League, that would be great.

Juninho, and the feel good story of Charlie Davies, who scored two goals this week for Chivas USA.
