A Letter to Allah or Jesus Concerning Christian Pulisic

It's been a long time since I posted anything. The reason for this is because I moved to Guadalajara, Mexico, and things have been kind of weird. I'm barely surviving. I'm teaching English classes for a painfully low amount. And I don't really know how it's going to change in the next few days, though I know something needs to change.

BUT JESUS FUCKING SHIT, ENOUGH ABOUT ME, LET'S TALK ABOUT CHRISTIAN FUCKING PULISIC.

So, I never talked about this "dunk":

And the reason I didn't talk about it is because I don't really care. But one thing I will say is that I don't really believe it. Which is a little bit crazy, since Pulisic confirmed in a video the other day that the rim was indeed 10 feet. That's the part I don't really believe. Because it doesn't look like he jumps that high. And I know how hard it is to dunk, and I'm almost 6'2''. Pulisic is, at most, 5'10''. And it doesn't really look like he gets up ALL THAT MUCH. But anyway. Who cares.

Apparently Pulisic didn't play that well last weekend against Freiburg. I wouldn't really know, since I was teaching an English class for $2.50 a fucking hour during the match. But I'm glad I missed most of it, because Dortmund played like feces that come from a dog. I don't think CP played all that bad, but he certainly didn't do anything exceptional.

As for all the Aubameyang shit, I only have this to say: Who cares. Let him go. So he's going to England? Fine. Whatever. I'm so sick of Aubameyang transfer news dominating all things Dortmund over the last few weeks. Don't need to hear any more about it. I like Auba, to a certain extent, but good riddance.

Luciky, since the Cologne game is on a Friday, I'll be able to watch it. But if Dortmund plays like they did against Freiburg, I don't want to watch it.

Please Jesus or Allah or whoever's in charge up there, can Pulisic do one of his runs where he beats four defenders, but this time score?

Your friend,

Mark

Panama prep, a Michael Bradley "highlight" video

Yesterday my roommate and I were talking about how terrible Michael Bradley is and how he shouldn't even be on the USMNT when my roommate said, "Let's just watch a Michael Bradley video. Let's see the best he's capable of." My first reaction, of course, was, "There is no thing on earth I would less rather do. I would literally rather get my arm run over by a bus than watch a Michael Bradley highlight video. What would a Michael Bradley highlight even be? Four minutes of back passes? Him shaving his head?" But then we were sitting there on the couch and bored and had watched enough South Park and after showing my roommate this video:  The #USMNT arrives for day 1️⃣ of training ahead of #USAvPAN on Friday. pic.twitter.com/7Hb29AIP6t — U.S. Soccer (@ussoccer) October 2, 2017 (who's the last player to walk into the frame, looking lost and confused and maybe even a bit depressed?)

Will Pulisic start today against Hamburg?

Many of us remember the devastation at not seeing Pulisic on the field at the start of the Köln game. Will the same thing happen today? Sports Illustrated doesn't seem to think so . Neither does Fear the Wall . In fact, Sports Illustrated doesn't even mention CP's name. Why is this? What is happening? Is it because of Philipp's performance? Is it because CP hasn't had a goal or an assist in awhile and his final touches have been a bit off? Or is it because Peter Bosz hates me? Either way, we'll know in about 30 minutes. I have a good feeling about CP in this game, whereas in previous games I didn't have the greatest feeling. I feel like coming off the bench could even be good for him, since he'd be extra fired up and would have fresh legs. Also, not that CP needs any help with this, but the importance of maintaining your feet on the ground and not letting things like his recent Golden Boy nomination go to your head cannot be overstated, and there...

Advice Column -- Ask a real Pulisic fan

Dear RPF, The other day my girlfriend and I got in a fight because she wanted to go out to dinner and I wanted to stay inside and watch the Univision broadcast of the Panama game in Spanish even though we had just finished watching it in English. After some heated comments back and forth she got frustrated, yelled "You're pathetic," and we haven't talked since. Should I try to win her back? --Pulisic Fan in Training Dear PFinT, This may be hard for you to hear, but the simple answer is no, don't try to win her back. In fact, stay as far away from her as possible, and until you can find a woman who understands your passion for this 19-year-old wunderkind, divide your time between watching highlight videos and taking shots from the top of the 18 with your weak foot. You'll forget about her in no time. Dear RPF, The other day at work my boss caught me scrolling through a Pulisic-rich Twitter and also watching various Pulisic highlight videos on YouTu...
