DeAndre: #2 Nice! http://www.soundersfc.com/post/2014/05/22/dempsey-yedlin-named-final-usmnt-23-man-roster-world-cup-brazil

Also: A nice SI article about the $$ of World Cup team membership. http://soccer.si.com/2014/05/20/world-cup-usa-usmnt-player-bonuses-money-ussf/ Seems like DeAndre and his agent are due a BIG raise after the cup -- How long does his HG contract last?

Bisbee and the Mrs. are extremely happy and proud. They texted me the news on the 22nd while I was driving home from a 2-week roadtrip. So proud of and pleased for DeAndre and the Zips Mens Soccer Program as all of you have posted.

I don't know what to believe about the USMNT's visit to TPC Sawgrass before the Nigeria game. @Yedlinny said he hit the green first try. Then there's this: http://www.sounderatheart.com/2014/6/5/5784006/deandre-yedlin-does-not-have-a-future-on-the-pga-tour I suspect he has a better future in golf than Mickelson has in futbol!

DeAndre didn't get to play, but what a huge result for the U.S. to beat Ghana, 2-1! With Portugal's star defender out for the next game on a red card for head-butting a German opponent laying on the ground with the cameras rolling, the U.S. has a shot at having 2 wins after their next game with Portugal. Who ever imagined the Group of Death could work out like this for the U.S.?

Jimmy Fallon introduces America to the U.S. soccer team ;)

DeAndre Yedlin at approximately 1:32

Some cheap shots (for all the players they "profiled") but in the vein of all publicity is good publicity... Hey can we get the title changed to Yedlin makes the final 23? Sure hope he at least gets a few minutes in one of the matches.

I'm not banking on it...which you wouldn't know since I dropped the big bucks on this beauty

I guess I don't see it as negatively as you. When they start poking fun at you on late night tv, you know you've made it to the spotlight. DeAndre is an awesome person and his uniqueness makes him stand out. I take it's that's why he was one of those "profiled". I think it's awesome that he's noticed...I hope he takes it that way.
