USA MNT Olympic match v. Nigeria – 1st Half

Shel and I are watching together on this one! (She’s back, YAY!!!)

In the first three minutes of the game Orozco got the most bogus red card of the entire Olympics! It maybe should have been a called foul, a yellow max! But definitely NOT a red.

BREAKING: McCarty Is USA’s Newest Olympian

Dax McCarty has been called up to replace the injured Nate Sturgis on US Men’s Olympic squad.  Rumors that the understudy was involved Sturgis’s demise remain unsubstantiated (although not beyond realm of possibilities from an FC Dallas player) and we wish him and the entire Olympic squad the best of luck as they represent the Red, White and Blue in Beijing.
