Unofficial Austin Aztex Weblog
You have two great choices for where to come out and support the U.S. men vs. Colombia tonight. The Austin Aztex and 101X are hosting a watch event at Cuatro’s on 24th (with “giveaways and prizes”), and American Outlaws Austin, as always, will be at Mister Tramps on 183. Kickoff is 7:00 PM CT.

Stuart Holden, who’s rapidly replacing Landon Donovan as the Stars and Stripes’ go-to man in deadball situation, and Clint Dempsey will flank the defensive-minded duo, and Jozy Altidore and Eddie Johnson will get a run out up top.
Trying to guess Bradley‘s actions is frequently an exercise in futility and frustration, but he should make more than the single substitution he used at Soldier Field. In addition to Lichaj and Brek Shea – whom Bradley said “there’s a good chance that both will get an opportunity” – either Benny Feilhaber or Alejandro Bedoya will get into the match.
Read it all, then make your plans for Cuatro’s or Tramps.
The Free Beer Movement — Chicken Soup for the Solo: Support Hope Solo’s Recovery
Long time readers of the Free Beer Movement know how much we love Hope Solo. She’s even an honorary “free beer mover” after she bought St. Louis Athletica fans’ beer during her time with the club before they folded.
That’s why the Free Beer Movement is organizing a get-well campaign for Hope Solo. We call it “Chicken Soup for the Solo”.
What do we want you to do? We got Hope Solo some chicken noodle soup and we want you to help us send it to her.
