  1. Would have to be Lake Travis. Lake Austin is constant level, it would cause unheard of levels of flooding.
  2. It takes 5 fucking seconds for you to sign. You take longer writing a post on Surly to bitch about it. If it doesn't make a difference, it's 5 seconds of your life gone. Drop in the bucket compared to the wasted hours this program has cost us over the last 12 years. For fuck's sake, just sign.
  3. Given the state of the standings, this was the worst track to have on the docket at this point. The design, the walls, the speed... This is a track designed for manufactured drama. Which we got. What we didn't get is a real race.
  4. This thread went from must read to an absolute beating faster than Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen could achieve.
  5. California is not a shit hole. That's just stupid. Oklahoma.... I mean, that's a given.
  6. This is more complicated than that time we went to the Rose Bowl and made Aaron Rodgers cry.

    I kind of like to think of it as us giving a giant middle finger to this worthless, no VAR, injury causing, shitty field using region.
  8. Why does the virus that is known as Texas Football have infect everything on this site?

    Top 7 get the #1 seed in a pot, correct (with the 8th #1 seed going to Qatar)? Might be attainable since WCQ games earn more points than friendlies. Croatia, Switzerland, Germany, Netherlands, Denmark, and Spain have all played their last meaningful game until the World Cup. Portugal and Italy have at most, 2 more. We have 6. Maybe there's a chance?
  10. How can you root against Alonso? That was the best part of the race.

    Lucky to get a point there. I thought both FBs played poorly, Robinson particularly so. McKennie not being in the lineup was felt big time, imo. When he's in there, we're almost playing a 4-2-3-1 with McKennie as the fake 10. Without him, we just didn't have that link from the middle 3 to the front 3 very consistently. He'll be needed vs Canada. In 2022... Oof.

    I'm too lazy to look, but if Canada ever uses Vancouver to host WCQ, we got dibs!

    Can you imagine how painful it's going to be the first time you get some studs to to the foot? I'd make sure they sub me out at that point - F that. But also, fuck Mexico. Have fun!

    I think it's been mentioned a couple times on this thread but it's worth repeating - this team would so perfectly fit a 4-2-3-1 formation. We have 4 players who can play the double pivot, depending on how aggressive you want to play. Adams, Busio, Musah, McKennie. We have, at least, 2 players who can play the 10 - Reyna, Aaronson, and Ferreira. Pulisic, Weah on the wings. Pepi up top. WC Champs '22.

    I think you (or maybe it was someone else) keep referring to this Roberts person. Unless this is a Surlyism that has gone over my head, are you referring to Richards? If so, definitely agree, the start should and likely will go to Richards. McKenzie has always looked shaky in a USMNT jersey. I think the point you make later on is the reason Busio starts. We need to come out aggressive, put up a goal, and take the wind out of their sails. They will be bunkering, they will get counter opportunities, and they will continue to grow in confidence if we don't get a goal quick. Besides, I think Busio does an excellent job of tracking back, probably a bit underrated in that respect. Lletget just passes back so all he can do is track back. Agree, leave the attack alone, keep the subs the same - Aaronson - Pepi - Weah with Pulisic/Jesus subs.

    Until Bild reports it, I won't believe it.
