Like on sunday they are going to play aganist Guatemala and they call all of their european players for this game. Are they retarted. Are they scared that they are going to lose? I bet the US womens team could kill the mens team. I've seen the womens team play and they play so much better than the mens team.

Guys, I think somebody needs to do a little more research: this is the game USA is playing Sunday.....
U.S. Men vs. Ecuador
Live on ESPN2 and Galavision

"Ecuador" currently ranked 6 spots higher than USA

I reckon it is because of the wins and losses columns.
The powers that be want to pad out the USA's record so it looks good at face value.
But as some US high schools know a padded record against second rate teams means nothing once you get bounced the first round of the playoffs year in year out.
You learn nothing from hammering second rate teams all the time. You need to grow a pair and take some tough games (Brazil, Argentina or play friendlies in Europe) and take some losses. You can learn from your mistakes but you won't learn if you feel you are not making mistakes.

Not true;they played and beat Mexico- a soccer mad nation and a team that usually does well in World Cup.

They play them so can can inflate their Fifa rankings and get the nation into the sport. Unfortunately, since they fail to do anything in the World Cup, nobody cares and goes back to watching the best american athletes in football and basketball, instead of second rate punks who had to have their own league created so they could have a place to play. USA soccer sucks *****, and it won't get any better because all their good athletes learn bball, football and baseball.

Because not many fans will go support the team. When Mexico plays the stadium is packed
