    Did I miss the animated discussion about Gregg Berhalter's appointment as USMNT coach?

    The process happened so fast, there was hardly time to comment on the whole thing.

    A year-long worldwide search to find a mediocre coach from a meh league? OUT-standing!

    The USSF's finances apparently are still recovering after paying off Klinsmann and missing out on that sweet, sweet World Cup revenue.

    I like the idea of an American coach (and Klinsi falls under that for me given he lives here). We don’t need to blow money on a half-retiree 15 years past his glory days in Serie A or the EPL.

    The USSF being organized at spotting and developing talent is much more important than who the coach is. We’ve had a very rough period for players aged 23-30.

    TrooperBari beat me, but a search shows that I first used that phrase 11 years ago (gulp) on this site.

    Goal + awesomeness = golazo
    Own goal (aka autogol) + awesomeness = autogolazo (think Agoos v Portugal)
