Well, the Yanks have officially booked their tickets to the 2010 World Cup in South Africa after beating Honduras in a 3-2 thriller. I missed the game because (a) I was at a wedding, and (b) it wasn't on TV anyway. So, let me say up front that I still feel like I can't really give you any real insight into the outcome.

There is always an award for "goal of the week" and "player of the week" but I think Houston and RSL made a case for a "Game of the Week" award; a thriller like that needs to be noticed. Click to continue reading...

Boy what a thriller huh? If you called a 2-0 win over Spain for the US you should probably be well on your way to an island somewhere celebrating your winnings. No one honestly called that kind of a win for the US today. Sure some had hopes of that kind of result but truth be told you'd be kidding yourself if you thought it would actually happen.

A couple of months ago we were cruising to our eighteenth league title. A win against Liverpool would have seen us go ten points clear with a game in hand. It seemed too good to be true... and it was.
