If I ever buy a MNT jersey, I think it'll have either his name or that of Tyler Adams.

Amen. I am leaning towards Adams. Although Aaronson has a chance to work his way into the picture

Well with 3 games, and a ridiculous amount of travel he had to tinker. Not to mention Weston Dumbass, Reyna & Dest being out. But yes Brooks has been bad and coming in to this he was counted on as a strength. It could be the travel. IT really could play havoc having to go 6 time zones to the US, down to El salvador, back to the US and back to Honduras in 10 days. That's brutal

Agreed I was expecting 5 - was hoping the 3 would be 3 against Canuckistan, to deprive a dangerous team of "bonus" points on the road. Next set of 3 include 2 at home I think.
