    The Tailgate: Christian Ramirez Left Off Gold Cup Roster

    This week, we ask the fans: “Minnesota United striker Christian Ramirez was not included in USMNT coach Bruce Arena’s preliminary 40 man Gold Cup roster despite strong performances in MLS and across the last few years in NASL. What’s your take on Ramirez’s Gold Cup snub?”

     

    “I’m sorry to say it, but this makes perfect sense. You never know when you are going to need six goalkeepers on your roster.”

    Caraley Burke, Taco Bell Sous Chef

     

     

    “There is still a chance that an emergency replacement will be needed in case a player gets sick, possibly from watching the quality of play in the Gold Cup.”

    Dylan Retspi, Bitcoin Launderer

    ...

     

    “At least Minnesota gets to retain a top striker during the Gold Cup to stand isolated while opponents win 85% of possession against a Loons squad full of backups.”

    Renida Falstaff, Impersonal Banker


    .

    “Kids these days want everything handed to them. When I was his age, I worked two jobs just to save enough money to play in the Gold Cup, and I didn’t get there with lattes and avocado toasts and Insta-book.”

    Greg Hendersohn, Avocado Shortseller

     

    “Stop trying to make Juan Agudelo happen. It’s not going to happen.”

    Regina George, Queen Bee
