If you’re not from ’round these parts, you may be wondering- “Where’s Jozy Altidore?”  He’s tired, folks.  His coach says he needs rest.  The MLS season is in full swing, so as with the rest of the year, Coach Bradley has to work around match schedules and club coaching to put out a side for a meaningless friendly.  The squad still looks pretty solid!
