Get Out in the Sun

So here's the deal. Im gonna try to be as succinct as possible, which will be impossible because this subject gets me kinda fired up. Whats the subject? Listen, will you just slow down a second. I just met you. This is moving too fast. And thats obviously a personal question. Everything written on this blog is personal. For example, I had a date the other night with a girl named Elle. We walked around the center of Vienna, and then we got tea. There was a magnetic connection between us in that there was almost no connection between us. Did I make her laugh? Obviously. I can usually make girls laugh. Did we have a baby? Not yet.

Sorry I blacked out for a second there. Where were we. I was talking about my life. Yes. As if you were interested. Its a gorgeous day here in Vienna. The sun is....shining. And Im in an internet cafe, listening to the Lord of the Rings sountrack. Dont ask why. I dont even like the lord of the rings movies. But I do like classical music, and this is some real classical music.

ENOUGH. JESUS FUCK. Lets talk about Josh fucking Sargent. Why should we talk about Josh Sargent? Because, dipshit, this:

Im sorry I called you a dipshit. Im in a weird place right now.

Please watch this.
Thank you. Now please do me a favor. Watch it again. And again. And again. Look how they hug. Look how happy everyone is. Look how happy you are, even though your life mostly suck. And then think about this: Werder Bremen plays Schalke 04 tomorrow. Dortmund plays Stuttgart tomorrow. Christian Pulisic will play. Weston McKennie will play. And Josh Sargent, the one and only, the kid from MO, the kid with the MO, the kid with the weapon of mass destruction, aka his right foot, will probably play too. Praise be to Jah and any other god worth praising. I wish you all a wonderful day. Get out in the sun if you can. I know I will.

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?) I said, "OK, let's do it. Let's wat...

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...
