Well last time it was better than previous editions when they gamed the 12 team tournament so that even if the US or Mexico were 2nd in the group they still wouldn't play a group winner.
The expansion to 16 teams did away with that option.

There were...<500 Hondurans scattered around maybe?  I wasn't even mad when they scored just to concretely ruin the narrative of the 50% Honduran crowd truthers.

To all those predicting a draw: are you insane?
You mean we're down 1-2 at home and need late heroics to tie and qualify?
Or we're up 2-1 and Honduras scores late to draw, and we hang on by the skin of our teeth?
That's the sort of evening you're hoping for?

It’s one thing thing to talk about Tomori in the dark bowels of the World Soccer forum, but to be waving around this sort of agonizing false hope in the unblemished purity of the CMNT section is truly disappointing.   I expected better.  

You don’t seem just focused on one thing but, hey.

Hahahahaha!

Ok. Here's a list of upcoming games:

There is no way Panama can catch up to us by end of March. Not even if we lose both our games and Panama wins their game (roughly 15 point swings each). They’d have to fit in multiple friendlies and win them all.
 

Oh, shoot. I forgot this was CONCACAF points. I have no idea how this system works, I was talking FIFA ranking points. 

I hope they packed their Hockey Canada Jerseys!

And what .. was he.. thinking about?
 
 
 

As I recall his contract was up after his breakout year so they signed him to a U22 initiative slot that allows a minor cap hit . I think they expected to get a productive season and then sell him on to Europe for mint.

I wasn't going to get into this, but I am not a fan of the way many people here attack Bontis on a personal level. He was one of my professors at McMaster and I found him to be an excellent teacher, and the only professor who even bothered to give his condolences when my grandma died and I had to miss his class. That may not seem like much, but as an engineer in the Eng & Mgmt program I dealt with basically every business professor hating us. Not even my own department cared to accommodate me when I had to fly to Winnipeg for the funeral. His mannerisms may rub you the wrong way, but he is a good man in my books.
You can dislike the job he has done as the CSA president (I, myself, am not a fan) without resorting to personal attacks and insinuations about his character.

I hope they packed their Hockey Canada Jerseys!

After an exhaustive global search Earl Cochrane has been named the head coach of the Canadian Men's National Team - future headline

I asked ChatGPT to write a poem about the Canadian men's national team and it spat out a Wheeler-esque analysis that references rock-solid defence. For a laugh, here it is:
There's a certain aura
that comes with wearing the Maple Leaf
and it's something that's hard to replicate
anywhere else in the world 
There's a swagger in their step
and a confidence that's unquestioned
It's something that makes you proud
to be from Canada 
The players on the Canadian Men's National Soccer team
represent the best of what this country has to offer
Their passion for the game show
with each game they play
They're a team that will never give up
no matter what the situation may be
Their rock-solid defense
and deadly shooting attack
Make no mistake about it
when the Canadian Men's National Soccer team steps on the field
The game is sure to be a close one
And it's a spectacle that no one should miss
