USA VS Jamaica Preview: Welcome to the Office

The USMNT traveled a day early to Kingston to get better acquainted with their surroundings in hopes of avoiding another disappointing upset to the Reggae Boyz.  Kickoff is slated for 8:30 pm at Jamaica's home stadium in Kingston, "The Office".  The questions surrounding the game involve whether or not Geoff Cameron might step in for the, currently error-prone, Omar Gonzalez.  Although Omar has been a bit shaky lately I think Klinsman will stick with Gonzalez in the name of continuity.  Also, benching Omar at such a late point in this camp could be quite a confidence blow for such a young player.  Omar appears to be what Klinsmann sees as the future in the back for the yanks and I must agree with him.  The youthful errors will fade as he sees more games.  Hopefully the errors just don't prove too costly in the short term.
