It is official. Jurgen Klinsmann is no longer in the running for the US MNT coaching job. He reportedly turned it down according to a US Soccer official. A formal announcement will be made on Thursday by US Soccer. Klinsmann had been courted for months by US Soccer following Bruce Arena’s resignation.
This means that US soccer can now chase Sven Goran Erickson, Eric Gerets, or better still Guus Hiddink.

They won’t. US Soccer will hire a lapdog (See Bradley; Bill).
Whoops. Meant ‘Bob’. Had my mind polluted by some other yutz on the Fox board. Sorry about that.

Was just thinking about that! Since when was a basketball player and a former US Senator in charge of a soccer team? Anyways, it still does not make a difference. We still lose out.
Hey, it’s hard to be more embarrassed than I am. I don’t know how (or if) this can be spun favorably.
