His Nickname Should Be Clutch

Landon Donovan scribbled his name of the stones of history today as his 92 minute goal propelled the US national team into the knockout stage of the 2010 world cup. Hats off to him for getting them back into the Slovenia game and MAking his MArk on US soccer history with his rebound goal against Algeria today. It was great to see this team comeback again after being denied a perfectly legal goal AGAIN! I don't like to blame refs in any sports loss, even though MAny have deserved it, but if the US had tied and not advanced they would have had a very legitimate beef with the FIFA refs. Thank all that is holy none of that talk will be needed because the US are in! As it stands right now the US will play either Serbia or Ghana both very good teams but also beatable. This type of sports story MAkes it easier for me to forgot what this blog had chronicled so well, the unspeakable event that still hasn't left my heart. We all know what I am talking about.
