    Come on, US. I'm happy to see a Donovan send off but a subsequent testimonial as a non-player is needed in my opinion.

    Sounds like Landon will only play about 30 minutes.

    I do believe I heard he's been given the armband, however.

    Given that the Galaxy are in the running for the Supporters' Shield, I have no objection to the quick 30-minute appearance.

    You know, it's really time that the MLS started observing FIFA international dates.

    You may or may not have already seen this, but good tribute to #10 right here.

    It's a shame they couldn't get the rights to show those goals

    I'm not sure what to expect tomorrow. Ecuador are not slouches. I'm guessing that the US will be caught up in the LD farewell which means there's a good chance will lose (by a couple). I'm also worried about the lack of experience in the midfield. Hopefully Mix, Corona, and Bedoya can pull off a solid outing like they did versus the Czech Republic last month.

    Unless we're playing in SLC or Denver, I think we're winning this one. Ecuador is a beast at home in that altitude, but a bit run-of-the-mill at sea level.

    two-word review of last night's match: SHOOT, DAMMIT!

    Four players impressed me, and one will never play for us again. The others were Mixx, Guzan, and Deandre Yedlin. I like JK's using him as a wingback.

    I thought Garza and Mix impressed me the most.

    Garza certainly impressed the announcers; that's for sure.
