Weekend Stuff: The Important Stuff

Wow.  Jozy Altidore started today for Villarreal against Recreativo Huelva and that is the nail in the potential-loan coffin.  Josmer is now unable to go on loan to another club this year and that means he will stick around with the Yellow Submarines for the rest of the season.

Maybe Neven ISN’T A Backstabber!

18
Looks like Sunil Gulati saw that FOX story today too, because he immediately reached out to Subotic's representation for confirmation.  You'll remember from my earlier post, that Subotic said that wearing another crest besides the USA would be "kinda like backstabbing."
