BREAKING: Mauricio Pochettino and US Soccer have agreed to a new contract, keeping him as the USMNT head coach through 2030.
Pochettino led the USMNT to the Round of 16 in this summer’s World Cup.

How all of this started was school/professional sports neglected anything outside of football or basketball, and local cities couldn’t provide a resource at a high level to fill the void.
Folks who wanted to play other sports outside of school found a way. It was to pay for it themselves.
Paying to play isn’t just a soccer issue, it’s now become the norm for all sports outside of high school football. You want to blame anyone for pay to play and income disparities, it was the Football-or-nothing mentality that drove it out of schools into the private markets.
Let’s just say the quiet part out loud…
Sports like Soccer, Lacrosse, Golf, Tennis and winter sports are played by white suburban kids whose parents are targeted for money.
There’s infinitely more talented black and Hispanic kids who will never get the chance because their parents aren’t rich enough to pay for clubs and better training.
These are access and opportunity limited sports and the Soccer, Golf, Lacrosse, and winter olympians of the world get to be labeled the “BEST IN THE COUNTRY” because mommy and daddy paid for them to be without actual competition.
This is another reason why so many Americans look at guys like TIM REAM on the USMNT and KNOW America’s best isn’t on display for the world.

I remind those angry that FIFA is doing the USMNT favors that FIFA also allowed this in 2002 against the U.S. in a quarterfinal with Germany against the wall.
They owe us one.

A little prep for Friday, this was the last time the US played Paraguay. Won the game, won the fight. Alex Freeman can set the tone again.
