Perhaps this was to be expected as the most talented American youngsters (Michael Bradley, an injured Benny Feilhaber, and Freddy Adu) have been called up to Bob Bradley's senior side in preparation for this coming Wednesday's friendly at Wembley. An opening 3-2 loss to the Turks and a 1-0 slip to the Elephants of the Cote left our boys languishing at the bottom of their group and bereft of any shot at the next round. So the game against Italy really meant nothing, and again the Red, White, and Blue spurned a chance of picking up at least some points in France.
Oh well. Let's see how the vets fair against Capello's English outfit at the midweek. After all, professional Dishwasher by day, American soccer god by night Joe Gaetjens lifted us past the meatpiers in the 1958 World Cup.
Prediction: California surfer-dude by day, California surfer-dude by night Landon Donovan will take us back to the glory days with a cheeky lob.
