Rio Tinto could be in the cards for the Hex, I think that'd probably be the closest you are going to get, Manny.
It pisses me off that we have to go to Columbus to have a home field advantage against Mexico too, but most of my anger is directed at all the Mexican-Americans who choose to root for Mexico over their actual home country.
I woudln't mind a trip to SLC but really if they have any game in Houston thats my likely destination.
You gotta figure Columbus and KC will both get games. I actually really want to go to KC to see a game in that stadium so maybe that'll be a place I can fly to.
Any of you scrahs got ESPN Insider for this article?

On the bright side Wondo and Zusi are now available.
Here's the HEX
Feb. 6 Honduras vs. USA away
March 22 USA vs. Costa Rica HOME
March 26 Mexico vs. USA away
June 7 Jamaica vs. USA away
June 11 USA vs. Panama HOME
June 18 USA vs. Honduras HOME
Sept. 6 Costa Rica vs. USA away
Sept. 10 USA vs. Mexico HOME
Oct. 11 USA vs. Jamaica HOME
Oct. 15 Panama vs. USA away
Start booking your flights to Columbus for September 10. I think that is a great date for the Mexico home match.
The first 3 games is rough. Don't like having to play the two best opponents in the region back-to-back twice.
Will be very interesting to see what the January camp looks like.
Chandler trolling U.S. fans again... http://www.soccerbyives.net/2012/11/...nt-return.html
Ugh. I'm sure he'll be "tired" in early February and unable to play in the WCQ v Honduras.
But we really do need a successor to Dolo. Right now he's still one of our best players, but do we really want to count on him in 2014?
Chandler back, no Clint. Interesting.
USMNT Roster vs. Russia: GOALKEEPERS (3): Tim Howard (Everton), Sean Johnson (Chicago Fire), Nick Rimando (Real Salt Lake)
DEFENDERS (6): Carlos Bocanegra (Racing Santander), Geoff Cameron (Stoke City), Timmy Chandler (Nuremberg), Maurice Edu (Stoke City), Clarence Goodson (Brondby), Fabian Johnson (Hoffenheim)
MIDFIELDERS (7): Michael Bradley (Roma), Mix Diskerud (Rosenborg), Joshua Gatt (Molde), Joe Gyau (Hoffenheim), Jermaine Jones (Schalke 04), Sacha Kljestan (Anderlecht), Danny Williams (Hoffenheim)
FORWARDS (4): Juan Agudelo (Chivas USA), Jozy Altidore (AZ Alkmaar), Terrence Boyd (Rapid Vienna), Herculez Gomez (Santos Laguna)
Juan Agudelo has been terrible this year. Strange call up.
Mix Diskerud (Rosenborg), Joshua Gatt (Molde), Joe Gyau (Hoffenheim), these are the guys I am excited to see
YOU ALTIDORE!
MIX IS THE MAN
Bradley is getting really really good. Why does Jurgen keep playing 3 nig defensive mids
To think one less bone head play and the USA could have beat Russia at home.
2012 is in the books. Thoughts by everyone?
Aside from the Olympic disaster its been a good year.
The record is severely misleading. There's no continuity in the team right now and Klinnsman is a really questionable tactician. We have some of our players playing the best they ever have (Clint,Bradley, and Jozy) and we have promising young Germans in the mix but at the same time the games have been ultra stagnent and Jurgen almost always manages to make questionable lineup decisions. Our defense is REALLY bad right now. All in all, I think the record masks a lot of the problems the US is experiencing right now.
After yesterdays games Eloratings.net has the USA +2 to 24. Other in the neighborhood include; 21. Chile, 22. Australia, 23. Belgium, 25. South Korea. Top 5 in order from first; Spain Brazil German Arg Netherland. Finally our Southern Foes... Mexico 7th.
The experts finally agree... MB90 is our best player:

I'm excited for Omar getting called up soon. Honestly quite surprised he came back so well from the injury. Will be interesting to see if he gets sold in the window because I don't see how he can stay with the Galaxy with his contract up soon. They've got to get something for him soon.
