    Bruce Arena for Secretary of State…

    A stroke of diplomatic genius. I mean, how much more would the world hate us if we were good at soccer (strike that—if our men were good at soccer)? With apologies to you soccer nerds out there (both of you)……

    Hang Reyna for diddling with the ball so close to the goal.

    Hang Bocanegra for heading the ball into the middle in the first place.

    Maybe if we started executing players for making stupid mistakes like that, we might win the Cup some year.

    (Just kidding)
