    The best thing about this is that this is a FIFA mandated international date, so we'll see some good players. The other best thing is that it's on a Tuesday night, and I can't think that I'd have a gig that night. COOOOOOOLNESS!!

    Ag, let's do this thing!

    Should be a good time. With the US playing in Prague six days earlier, I wonder if he will do a Euro-based roster for that game and a MLS/Liga MX-based roster for San Antonio. I am sure there will be a few crossover guys, but based on Klinsmann comments from a month or so ago, he sounded like he was going to trot some of the younger/new guys out there in these first couple post-WC friendlies.

    Gonna be almost as interesting to see who the Colombians trot out there, including the guy patrolling the technical area.

    Still nothing listed on US Soccer about this match. I'm deathly afraid some New Yorker is trying to kill the game because "There's only Mexico fans in San Antonio."

    When these things leak out - opponent and location - with the USMNT, they are usually true. Cant remember a time when the leak was wrong. Hope you and Matt have a great time.

    RT @GrantWahl: Source: Colombia had verbal deal to meet US in San Antonio Sept 9 but did not sign contract in time Monday. US unlikely to play that date.

    It's an automatic sellout. Perhaps Matt and I could be two of 178 people NOT rooting for Mexico on the night!

    Hey Don, just make sure you have your taxes done early so you don't miss the match trying to get a last second filing completed.

    Not to worry about that, Barry. The hot redhead I sleep with is an EA with H&R Block. ;)

    No, and this might sound stupid to those of you who are single, but HatterMom is a tax professional and will be working late into the night the evening of the match. I can't imagine going without her, so I'll tape it at watch it with her when she finally gets home ... while pouring her a glass or two of vino, of course.

    Bummer. I completely understand, but it sucks that that is one of the (probably) few days out of the year that you can't make.
