Dear Argentina,

Please go easy on team USA, today.

Thank you.

Haha, a loaded Argentina roster against a USA team that doesn't even have all of its players who are in their offseason . Why are we even there? Maybe Mexico can pull it off and then we can say "we beat them and they beat you!"

I hope the Argies DESTROY the USA team. Teach them to field a sub-par team!

I think Argentina should at least win by 3 goals.

at first I was upset about the roster myself, but now that I think about it. all the USMNT wanted to do is qualify for the Confederations Cup so mission accomplished and this is as good as time as any to see what the young guys have to offer.

We already know what the vets have to offer, so sink or swim time for the young Nats.

Good luck boys, I'll be rooting for you.

Messi, please don't break too many defenders ankles with your sweet sweet moves...

1-1-1 get 3 games in for young guns and get home. Great opportunity for Bob to elavuate talent for 2010 and great for the kids to earn a spot in the MNT talen pool.

I really hope Califf has a good showing, he such a good guy.

1-1 at the half. Bueno.

It's fitting that Crespo and Johnson have the goals. They're both all over the place, the latter by relative terms.
