    Also the men play Venezuela tonight at 7:00 on ESPN 3. The strikers available for tonight? Teal Bunbury, C.J. Sapong and Chris Wondolowski. Take that Hugo.

      Dempsey! USA up 1-0 over Italy in the 2nd half.

      Old school jerseys. I think I like them.

        Maybe I don't like them. I don't understand the sleeves.

            I doubt it's on the radio. ESPN3 maybe?

                  Just opened the Gamecast to check 19(7) to 4(2) on shots. Howard must be playing out of his mind.

                    This is a great win. I was skeptical of Klinsmann, but he seems to have us headed in the right direction.

                      Howard was great. USA bunkered down after the goal, so Italy had a ton of offensive pressure the last 30 minutes.

                        Lots of defensive deflections/blocks - guys were throwing their bodies around.

                        Toward the end one of the Italian players was chasing a ball wide of the US goal. He lowered his shoulder and tried to knock the US defender off the ball but bounced off him and fell to the ground. That made me smile.
