So I did some digging and it turns out that US Soccer is continuing to hold USOC games, despite the fact that the Fire were knocked out in the previous round. Weird, right? This just seems extremely rude to me, to be quite honest.
I’ve sent some Strongly Worded Emails to Sunil Gulati to express our collective displeasure at this mockery of a tournament. I’ll let you know what he says once he gets back to me. (Assuming a judge doesn’t put me under a gag order.) In the meantime, he’s all the crazy shit that went down in the Quarterfinals.
