    Gotcha. Sounds like he would meet that requirement in 2017 since he got his green card to play for Sporting in 2012. Again, not sure how likely it is, but certainly worth considering given that Dempsey will likely be gone (he'll be 35 in 2018) and Altidore has stretches where he is very inconsistent.

      I thought they only have yellow and red cards in soccer.
      There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.

        My daughter is all about the new Sporting KC kits. Her big gift for Christmas was a Connor Hallisey 3rd kit that he signed and personalized to her. She's all ready telling me she wants the new kit for her bday and April. We scored tix to the opener recently.

            The Copa America Centenario Draw was held today, and the groups are as follows:

            Group A (Santa Clara, Orlando, Chicago, Pasadena, Philadelphia, Houston)

            A1: USA
            A2: Colombia
            A3: Costa Rica
            A4: Paraguay

            Group B (Seattle, Pasadena, Orlando, Glendale, East Rutherford, Foxborough)

            B1: Brazil
            B2: Ecuador
            B3: Haiti
            B4: Peru

            Group C (Chicago, Glendale, Philadelphia, Pasadena, Houston, Santa Clara)

            C1: Mexico
            C2: Uruguay
            C3: Jamaica
            C4: Venezuela

            Group D (Orlando, Santa Clara, Foxborough, Chicago, Philadelphia, Seattle)

            D1: Argentina
            D2: Chile
            D3: Panama
            D4: Bolivia

            Not an easy draw for the US, to be sure. But ultimately if we've come as far as Klinsmann said we would by this time, we should get through the group. ESPN's SPI gives us a 62% chance to go through I believe (I'm not 100% sure how reliable some of these ESPN metrics are, especially in soccer, where there are so many moving parts). I would like to go see a match, but the closest spot is in either Houston or Chicago, so we'll see if it's a possibility.

            Again, tough group to be drawn into, but I'm sick of the excuses. Let's make some noise.
