RE: Beat the Reggae Boys!
its crazy that Jamaica has 5 MLS players playing whereas the US only has 1 on the pitch ... thing is, we've got players playing in other major leagues across the world.

Good result (3 points). I don't understand why the US defaults to long-ball and defensive tactics automatically upon gaining the lead. There are times to do it, but tonight they bossed the game so well that I was hoping they would continue to retain possession. Then again, they looked exhausted by the end.

That was more like it. Good pressure put on by the USA the whole game, and we were unlucky not to have 2 or 3 goals.
I'll never understand why Jamaica played so passively the whole game until the USA finally scored. They controlled the match in Kingston. Does sitting back in a shell for the whole game and playing for a draw ever work? You know if you let the other team have all the possession, then it's just a matter of time before they score. Seems that people forget that old axiom, the best defense is a good offense.
