    LOVE LOVE LOVE these jerseys they are wearing. I have been wanting to buy a jersey for a while, thinking about pulling the trigger on this bad boy

    Until I am at the bar and spill beer all over the beautiful white jersey.

    Can't believe they're up 2-0 at half. Sweet goal by Altidore...great cross from Zusi. That 2nd goal was a gift...I don't know what the hell that German goalie was doing.

    Pretty wild. Good to see some life out of Altidore. Complete gift. Is it just me or do we get more gifts like that than most teams?

    Great to get a 4-3 win. These guys need to learn how to hold a lead....nothing ever comes easy for the US.

    I think more important than the score was how well they played. Defense is still very sketchy but great midfield play and some great finishes. Basically it was a tie because that own goal was ridiculous.

    great result for the US, good to see them score, better to see them defend well for most of the game. This game is a great confidence booster going into Jamaica.

    Also, I just love hearing Ian Darke call a game, he is my favorite announcer. A great line he had:

    "Micheal Bradley is the glue that holds the team together: just give me the ball and I will generally do something reasonable with the it"

    I thought the defense was poor. There were a lot of opportunities for Germany in the first half that they should have finished on. Too many major blunders. It wasn't all bad and there was some good play on the back line but I thought overall is was not nearly good enough.

    I agree that it good for their confidence. Maybe Altidore will live up to some of his potential now.

    tonight the USA plays Jamaica in Kingstown, should be a tough game for the USA.

    Will anyone be able to actually watch it?? It is supposed to be broadcast on beIN, whatever the heck that is, I sure don't get it.

    I think there are like two bars in Philly that get it. Won't be watching.

    620 on DirecTV If you like sports and don't have DirecTV you're a fool. I'm sure some cable systems have it, but there is never a doubt with sports and DirecTv.

    Ive been watching non boring (ie non Italy) qualifiers all day. Which raises a question - do Italians even like Italy brand soccer?
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    1-0 U.S.A. At half, Altidore with the goal in the 30'. We need to hold this lead and come away with the win.

    terrific win by the USA, that will do a lot for the campaign. Doesn't hurt that Mexico and Panama tied. Next up is USA vs Panama on Tuesday, should have a great home crowd in Seattle.

    Yeah, that was great. I don't get that channel it was on and the bar I was at didnt have it either so I only saw highlights. So huge to come right back and score for the win after they tied it up in the 89th minute. Thought it was going to be another typical US letdown on the road.

    Good result. Nice to see Altidore score again. Hope he just explodes now. Still bad defense on the goal they gave up. There were three Jamaican players alone behind the line defensive line. If they dont get better defensively they will will not go anywhere.
