Apathy and anger cloud USA team a year out from World Cup
Former USA goalkeeper Kasey Keller says he was embarassed by the USA's 4-0 loss to Switzerland. (Victor Decolongon) A run of four straight losses, including a 4-0 hammering from Switzerland on Wednesday, has left Mauricio Pochettino and his USA team feeling the wrath of critics a year out from the World Cup they will co-host. The USA head into their opening game of the CONCACAF Gold Cup against Trinidad and Tobago on Sunday having lost on home soil to Panama and Canada in the Nations League in March before friendly losses to Turkey and the debacle against the Swiss. Advertisement "I think it is the most embarrassed I have been for the US national team in a long time," said Kasey Keller, who played in goal for the USA 102 times between 1990 and 2007. While there were plenty of American fans venting similar feelings on social media after the loss, what will perhaps be more concerning for the US Soccer Federation is supporters voting with their feet and not attending games. There were thousands of empty seats in Nashville for the Switzerland defeat after poor turn-outs for March's games in Los Angeles. "There's just a sense of apathy around the United States men's program and I don't think that's a hot take," former striker Taylor Twellman told NBC Sports. Advertisement Alexi Lalas, a star of the USA team the last time they hosted a World Cup in 1994, has built a career in 'hot takes' for Fox Sports but even he was struggling to fire himself up for a Star Spangled rant after the latest disappointment. "I'm having a hard time even conjuring up that and that makes a little sad. In the past when I was angry at what was going on, I felt compelled to express it and now they are not even worth that, not worth me expressing how disappointing this is right now," he said on his podcast 'State of the Union'. Pochettino has been forced to field a largely second string squad in this month's games with the likes of Tim Weah and Weston McKennie on Club World Cup duty with Juventus while captain and talisman Christian Pulisic has opted to take some rest along with some other members of the first choice squad. That latter decision prompted fierce criticism from some ex-players, including Landon Donovan, the country's all-time joint top scorer who during commentary of Portugal's win in the UEFA Nations League hit out at the absentees. Advertisement "[Ronaldo is] 40 years old. He's played a long-ass season. He's tired. He's out there grinding. Hurt himself in the process, and I can't help but think about some of our guys on vacation, not wanting to play in the Gold Cup. It's pissing me off," he said. That led to a sarcastic reply on social media from Pulisic's father Mark who posted a reminder of Donovan's own 'sabbatical' from the USA team. - Pressure - But there is also pressure mounting on Pochettino, the Argentine former Tottenham Hotspur manager, who was appointed to the USA role in September. Advertisement The coach said he would take the blame for the showing against Switzerland where the USA were 4-0 down by half-time. "It's my responsibility the choice of the starting 11. I wanted to give minutes to certain players, but we were never in the game," the Argentine said. While Pochettino's job may be safe, some are wondering if he might not need some assistance. "It looks like he doesn't know the team, it looks like he doesn't scout the players, has no idea of the pieces he has at his disposal," said former USA forward Hercules Gomez on You Tube. "The US Soccer Federation, why not place somebody who has some experience with the player pool to help Pochettino out because it looks like he has no idea who his players are? With a World Cup on home soil that is a disaster," he added. The USA will co-host the World Cup with Mexico and Canada. sev/rcw

Legendary dirt track racer Scott Bloomquist's fatal plane crash deemed an ‘act of suicide'
Dirt track racing legend Scott Bloomquist's death in a 2024 plane crash likely was caused by 'the pilot's intentional flight into a building as an act of suicide,' according to a report issued this week by the National Transportation Safety Board. Bloomquist, a 2002 National Dirt Late Model Hall of Fame inductee, was the pilot and sole occupant of a a two-seat 1938 Piper J3 aircraft that crashed into a barn on his family's property Aug. 16 in Mooresburg, Tenn. He was 60. 'The pilot departed from a private airstrip and overflew his property,' states the NTSB's aviation investigation final report, which does not mention Bloomquist by name. 'The airplane subsequently impacted a barn adjacent to the airstrip. The airplane sustained substantial damage, and the fuselage was mostly consumed by the postimpact fire that ensued. 'The pilot was fatally injured. ... The autopsy report listed the cause of death as blunt force injuries and the manner of death as suicide.' According to the report, Bloomquist did not have a pilot's certificate. Bloomquist's family issued a statement to Fox Sports coinciding with the report's release. 'At this time, the family of Scott Bloomquist is not making any public statements regarding the plane crash or the recent NTSB findings,' the statement said. 'They are focused on supporting one another and respectfully request privacy as they navigate this difficult period. 'We appreciate your understanding and ask that the media refrain from further inquiries at this time.' Known for his long hair and tough-guy attitude, Bloomquist started his racing career at Corona Raceway in 1980 and is said to have won more than 600 races overall. Following Bloomquist's death, Bristol Motor Speedway president and manager Jerry Caldwell said the late driver was 'arguably the greatest dirt late model racer in the sport's history.' Bloomquist was in a motorcycle accident in March 2019 and suffered serious injuries to his right leg and hip that would cause complications for years afterward. In June 2023, Bloomquist told Dirt on Dirt that he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer, but it had been caught early. He said that he was expected to make a full recovery after surgery and treatment.

Denny Hamlin Stunned by Alex Bowman's Michigan Crash - 'Big Lick'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Denny Hamlin has reacted to Alex Bowman's crash during the NASCAR Cup Series race at Michigan International Speedway on Sunday. Hamlin was surprised by the intensity of the incident and described it as a "big lick." Five drivers were involved in the crash that brought out the red flag. Contact between cars No. 41 and 2 triggered the incident. Cars No. 99, 48, and 19 weren't spared either. Bowman, Daniel Suarez, Cole Custer, Austin Cindric, and Chase Briscoe were the affected drivers, and fortunately, all escaped unharmed. However, Bowman crashed hard, which prompted him to admit that it was the "biggest hit" he had experienced in a stock car. Newsweek Sports reported his statement after the crash: Alex Bowman, driver of the #48 Ally Chevrolet, pits after an on-track incident during the NASCAR Cup Series Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway on June 01, 2025 in Lebanon, Tennessee. Alex Bowman, driver of the #48 Ally Chevrolet, pits after an on-track incident during the NASCAR Cup Series Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway on June 01, 2025 in Lebanon, Tennessee."It happened so fast that I didn't even see them. I didn't know who hit me until I saw the video. It's always turbulent in the 300th. It's crazy back there. It gets wild and that is part of racing. It's wild all through the field. "Unfortunately, the further back you get, the less downforce cars have, the dirtier the air, the situations you're in, and the worst everybody stuff drives. So stuff like this tends to happen." He added: "I feel okay. It was the biggest hit I've ever taken in a stock car by a mile. Head-on into the wall at Michigan, it's gonna be that way. Try to go get them next week." The red flag is out at @MISpeedway after this incident involving multiple cars.@Alex_Bowman exited the No. 48 under his own power. — NASCAR (@NASCAR) June 8, 2025 Hamlin said on his Actions Detrimental podcast that he knew the crash was serious since he wasn't allowed to go past the "crime scene." He said: "Major. I knew it had to be a big lick, because they wouldn't even let us go through this crime scene. The caution came out for us, I think I was somewhere on the back stretch, and we were stopped right after the start-finish line. "So, at that point, when it goes red that quickly, I'm like, 'Oh, must've had a big one.' I point myself out to look at the screen to see the replay, and I was like, 'Whoa, that was a big hit.'" When the NASCAR veteran was asked about the impact of the crash and the pain that comes from such crashes, he said: "You certainly feel it more so the day after and the following days. Like, for instance, my wrist from Daytona - I think it's still not right from where it was. Like, I'm so old now, it's like, will it ever be right again? It just sucks to put any kind of pressure on it. "It's just, I think it's different for everyone. People recover differently. But yeah, I mean, head-on impact like that. Certainly when the Next Gen originally came out and it was solid as a rock, you know, before they started cutting up the roll cage and all kinds of stuff to get the impacts a little bit softer, you know, that could've been a way worse wreck than what it appears that it resulted in."
