Timbers Tid Bits: Gold Cup Edition 2 - The Sequeling!

I know, I used this edition for yesterday, but it's just as applicable for today as the US Men's National Team takes on Canada today in the CONCACAF Gold Cup. I don't want to sound arrogant, or anything like that, but anything other than a win tonight will be not only a disappointment but an embarrassment. I have high expectations for our guys in this tournament and fully expect them to make it to the Finals.

Anyway, here's the day's news. Enjoy!
