USA Men’s Soccer Needs Major Overhaul After Pathetic Loss To Costa Rica
Share this: The United States men’s national team turned in one of the most embarrassing performances in the nation’s history — in any sport — on Tuesday night in a 4-0 loss to Costa Rica. Yes, it was even worse than the men’s hockey team in September’s World Cup of Hockey tournament. Team USA has had its ups and downs under German manager Jurgen Klinsmann, but this loss to a much-inferior opponent in World Cup qualifying is by far the low point. The Americans now are 0-2-0 with zero points in CONCACAF qualifying for the 2018 World Cup, and Tuesday’s defeat was their worst in WC qualifying since 1957. The #USMNT: – Has lost consecutive World Cup qualifiers for 1st time since 2001.– Has worst shutout loss
Patriots Defense: Exactly How Poor Is It, And How Can It Be Fixed?
Share this: The New England Patriots traded away one of their most talented defenders in hopes it would fix their ailing defense. One game down, and the Patriots’ defense looks worse than ever. The Patriots’ loss in their first game of the post-Jamie Collins era brings to mind a scene from the Thanksgiving classic “Planes, Trains and Automobiles”. Del Griffith, played by John Candy, totals a car he rented, and Neil Page, played by Steve Martin, bursts out laughing, saying, “You finally did it to yourself!” One would imagine that’s how opposing coaches are looking at Belichick. Of course, Griffith actually used Page’s credit card to rent the car. So, there’s a good chance Belichick gets the last laugh, regardless. But how will he turn around his defense?
