I like the Bloomin' Onion followed by the New York Strip with garlick mashed potatoes and broccoli, finished off with a Chocolate Thunder from Down Under!

Among my favorites (and I have a short memory) Tab Ramos, Claudio Reyna, John O'Brien, Kasey Keller, Brad Friedel

Name the countries #s 1-4 you feel will finish at the top. Who will suprise? Who will bomb?

I mean, 4-1 is a good result... great. I just wasn't too impressed with some of the guys. They just didn't look really sharp. Particularly Beasley and Dempsey... I've just come to expect a little more out of them (Dempsey anyway). I like the fact that a lot of new guys are getting some time in the uniform and that may explain why they looked a little slow overall. I dunno... what do you think?

All perspectives welcome

O'Brien was one of the more talented Americans playing football in Europe (Ajax) and did quite well in World Cup 2002. He showed up "limping" in 2006 and has not been heard from after that. He had transfered to Chivas USA before the WC... where is he? Retired? Anyone have any idea? He's not that old and was a very good midfielder/defender.

Seriously! I know, you're going to tear me apart... I know they're not there now. But the U20 batch of guys has been competing well, MLS is improving... how far out are they?

My wife and I basically avoided contact until our wedding day. We didn't even kiss until after we said "I do". The first time we held hands was when her father handed her over to me at our wedding. We've been married for 3 1/2 years now and we've never regretted what we did, in fact, we highly recommend it... anyone else with a similar story?

If other planets are warming, as is ours, can we still assume that we are responsible for the warming taking place here? Honest question.

My wife and I decided to name our daughter Cosette after the character in Victor Hugo's book "Les Miserables". We haven't run into anyone else with that name and we were wondering how common it is.
