  • Here's a fascinating Q&A with New York Cosmos chief operating officer Erik Stover. It sounds more and more like the team has no interest in joining Major League Soccer: "There are a lot of things that we are going to be able to do that you simply can’t do in M.L.S.—whether it’s on the commercial side of things or the player personnel side of things. There are some player transactions that we think we are going to announce here over the next few weeks, that, if they do come to fruition, I’m certain that a club wouldn’t be able to do in M.L.S. due to various rules and restrictions.

  • New soccer show alert! New soccer show alert! Jason Davis kicks off "American Soccer Morning," his 7 a.m.-9 a.m. broadcast on NASN.

American Soccer Morning will cover MLS, the USMNT, NASL, USL-Pro, as well as news from around the world of soccer." Get into it.

The squad gets Guatemala on Thursday.

  • Josh Dean takes a look at the well-traveled career of 23-year-old Freddy Adu. Did you know Sir Alex Ferguson once inquired about the boy genius?

  • Finally, some good news for Terrence Boyd:
