This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Unless El Salvador defeat Mexico... by baloo88
A draw against El Salvador will be enough to see our U20s to the final, where they likely will face Honduras or Costa Rica.
This could be a big shot in the arm for the U20 program. They made it to the quarterfinals of the 2015 U20 World Cup, where they lost on penalties to eventual champions Serbia. Of course, that team had Rubio Rubin, Paul Arriola, Emerson Hyndman, and Matt Miazga, all of whom have aged out. One wonders if Tab Ramos might call in Zelalem or Carter-Vickers for the World Cup. Though he's been getting playing time in the Dutch second division, Zelalem could use an audition on a bigger stage, since he doesn't seem to be in Arsenal's plans.
