USA Mexico World Cup Qualifier

Today in Mexico City.

I will be essentially useless starting around 4:00pm this afternoon.

The U.S. arrived yesterday in Mexico City to scattered chants of "Cinco a Cero." Today is probably the best chance for the Americans to beat the Mexicans at Azteca, a place where the U.S. has never won and only drawn once. Of course, Mexico has only lost once in Azteca to Costa Rica in a 2001 World Cup Qualifier.

Likely starting line up this afternoon:

---------Howard---------------

Spector---DeMerit---Onyewu----Bocanegra

Dempsey---Bradley--Clark----Donovan

-----Ching-------Altidore------

Bench
Guzan
Bornstein
Marshall
Feilhaber
Torres
Davies
Holden

Look for Charlie Davies to come on for Altidore around the 60th to 65th minute and Benny Feilhaber for Clark in the second half

Getting excited--can't wait!!!!!!
