no entiendo. seriously.

my bias = which is...? i'm not saying it doesn't exist (everyone has one, i'm aware of mine), just i'm not sure what you think my bias is.

plenty of kids = of course. more inspired by the recent world cup performance than ever. that's under klinsmann.

bradley = dullsville national team coach

bruce arena > bradley

klinsmann > bradley

last few matches = experimental

if they are shit at the gold cup, that's what will count. but the future is not here yet. tournaments count, friendlies are just testing grounds. they were not shit at the world cup, so... the record backs him up so far.
