Yep, I think the flag went up because of Findley, even though he didn't play the ball. Dempsey came from the 6 yard box, he wasn't even close to being offside.

Oguchi Onywhowho? C'mon Martin, you're better than that.

3–1! Gomez!

the offside call wasn't so bad, FIndlay was offside and making an effort to play the ball. Had he not gone for it would've been a goal.

Seeing Buddle I see why Ching didn't make the squad, he appears every bit as good of a target, and has good vision as well.

Findlay put himself in good places but couldn't finish. Hope he gets that out of his system.

THE GOOD
1. Buddle- A brace and good vision
2. Cherudolo-Great going forward and solid in defense
3. Donovan- Very dangerous on the ball tonight
4. Gomez's luck- The man scores everytime he plays. It's bordering on ridiculous.
5. Bradley- Solid in defensive midfield
6. Findley's pace and creativity

THE BAD
1. Dempsey's temper
2. DeMerit's tackling
3. Ricardo Clark- Edu and Torres are better options
4. Hahnemann- Sun or not he was bad

THE UGLY
1. Bornstein- Caught out of position twice in 10 minutes and was skinned like a chicken on the wing
2. Goodson- Out of his depth today.
3. Findley's finishing

I don't think Dempsey's temper was all that bad considering the circumstances. All the players realized this is the last practice-run before the big stage and they don't want to get hurt.

Dempsey was being murdered out there every time he touched the ball. I probably would've been a little peeved too had that happened to me.

I doubt he reacts like that in a week. He's usually a pretty calm player.

He told Cahill to, and I quote, "Get your boy!"

Last two warmup games gives me hope.

I think Peter Crouch is gonna put a brace up on us after watching our marking on set pieces.

My fear exactly. We suck at defending tall guys.

We suck at defending set pieces. Midget Tim Cahill got in unmarked on us
