Enigmatic CONCACAF referees become even more Enigmatic when they are in the Coloso de Santa Ursula.

We don't want Clint picking up an 89th minute Red Card and not being able to play against the less experienced, less talented Guatemalans in Birmingham.

The referee for US-Guatemala should compare notes with referees for the most popular summer sport in that part of the country. Maybe the referee in Birmingham can send off Carlos Ruiz for Having His Chassis Too Close To The Ground during one of his multiple dives in the penalty area?

OK, you got rep for that post. Outstanding.

Appreciate the reference to the Coloso (Coloseo?) de Santa Ursula. Or maybe we can say the Guillermo Caneda. It's like calling the San Siro "Guiseppe Meazza." Soccer trivia at its best.
