ASN Morning Read: Happy Birthday to Us

Someone special turns one today, so we found this sweet picture of Tim Howard and Brad Guzan in honor of the occasion. Elsewhere, we hear from Herculez Gomez, the geniuses at FIFA, and some wankers.

  • One year ago today we turned the lights on here at American Soccer Now. We didn't know what to expect, but it has exceeded our expectations immensely. That is mostly due to all of you who come, comment, and generally make this fun. Thanks. Without you, there is no ASN. Here's to much more in year two.

  • Tom Marshall catches up with a fully recovered Herculez Gomez, who talks about his place on the United States national team. “I understand that competition is stiff, I understand that we have plenty of good players,” he said. “I also understand that this is the best US pool that there has ever been. It gives me great sense of pride that I’m in this pool looking for a spot and things like that fire me up to work even harder.”

    Oh, and lunch. Golazo and Capri Sun?

  • Your the 2022 World Cup is going to be a disaster update:
  • Speaking of FIFA, Joel Campbell will not be suspended for his dive that kept Matt Besler out of the match against Mexico. Deadspin dives into the controversy with some manufactured outrage; the rest of us shrug and move on with our lives.

  • Will the U.S. have seven MLS starters in Brazil next summer. Seems like it could be the case.

  • Howler has a fun post about wankers. Plus, you get to vote. Everyone loves pictures and voting.
