Message: [QUOTE="UConnTrumbull, post: 2327372, member: 5098"] I actually love this. The USMNT need a kick in the backside. Lalas and his boys (Meola, Ramos, Wynalda, Harkes, etc) made the US relevant in this sport by consistently qualifying for the WC starting in 1990. They laid the foundation that ultimately became a WC quarter-finalist, a Confed Cup finalist, a top 20 team in the world. "You are a soccer generation that has been given everything; you are a soccer generation who's on the verge of squandering everything." Honestly, couldn't agree more. Missing out on the WC would put the development of this sport back 20 years. I still think we qualify but I don't mind the tough love here. [/QUOTE]
