Friday October 10 at 7pm vs. Ecuador. First game on US soil since the World Cup. Possibility Donovan's send off game?

 

[Dooley]

Possible reward for being a Top 2-3 TV market for the World Cup?

Kill me now.

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

Kill me now.

Seriously. The football season is 2 weeks away.

Who starts in net?

Soccer is so boring that football fans don't have the willpower to ignore a discussion about a soccer game 2 months away.

Romando (sp?)

You don't see this in football.

Brad Guzan, no?

 

[progrocks]

Who starts in net?

Bill Hamid or Brad Guzan.

I suspect the UK keepers will stay over there, and I think that this fall will be a lot about seeing who can step up from the B team.

 

[Pudge]

Kill me now.

Congrats. You've become Pavlov's Dog.

Kill me now.

What really might kill you is when The USMNT outdraws UConn Football at Rentschler.

This definitely solicited a response but I'm not sure what it is yet. I would be beyond happy if USMNT sold out the Rent but I also will be incredibly disappointed with the UCONN fanbase if UCONN football doesn't.

Only because it happens at the bottom of the pile.

 

[ZooCougar]

Who starts in net?

Nick Rimando or Bill Hamid.

This is awesome news! Love that US Soccer continues to play in East Hartford.

Rent always has been a great site for US soccer. Just the right size, easy access to both NYC and Boston metros. Given the World Cup buzz, I bet it sells out.

There are plenty who are rabid supporters of both UConn athletics and US Soccer. This thread is for us. For those who don't want to participate, just ignore the thread

The soccer game will sell out.

 

[History Geek]

The soccer game will sell out.

I don't think they have in the past (good crowds but not sellouts), but this time I agree with you, I think it will.

 

[ZooCougar]

Actually thinking of flying back for this one.

 

[Waquoit]

This is great news. We needed some football in The Rent in October.

I teach high school psychology. Thank you for this.

This has a nice ring to it..

The friendly at the University of Connecticut stadium will be the USMNT’s first stateside appearance since their run to the group stage at this summer’s World Cup in Brazil.

 

[History Geek]

It will be Landon Donovan's send off game.
