I feel bad for Blackpool. I watched several of their games this season and they're a fun team to watch. They're not like the other bottom feeders where they'll just sit back and try to play for a draw... I absolutely loved how they'd try to take it to every team, score 2 or 3 goals on them... while conceding like 5 goals themselves
. Even though I'm a Manchester United fan, I kind of wanted us to draw just so they could stay up...
Oh well.

I have a question regarding players with dual citizenship. If a player decides to play for a National Team (Mexico, Brazil, Italy, etc) but for some reason he doesn't like it after a while (not getting playing time, doesn't fit well in the team, etc), can he go back and play for the U.S National team? Are they allowed to switch teams? Or once you pick a national team, you have to stick with it?

I believe once you play for a senior national team in a tournament/cup/qualifier, you're tied.
You can play in a friendlies or for a U-20, U-17, etc. team and still switch.
Jermaine Jones played in three friendlies for Germany before switching to the USA.
USMNT roster for the Gold Cup should be out this afternoon.

recent whispers about Fabio Coentrao and Kun Aguero respectively. The latter supposedly discussed his future with Atletico directors alongside his father at the Ramon Calderon today.

I wasn't claiming Wondo to be the best, I just work with the Earthquakes so I'm happy he got called up and wish him the best. I agree though, the roster is a little skeptical

Apparently, Ryan Giggs had an affair with a British model and it's all over the English media today.
Whatever helps keep Giggsy distracted before the UCL final.

Great article in the Times about MessiGod. A little long, but still a great piece.
