We were promised a “golden generation,” and there’s nothing golden about it — Dave is well aware.
Dave Portnoy, the founder of Barstool Sports, isn’t happy whatsoever with the United States Men’s National Team (USMNT) following an “embarrassing” defeat against Belgium. And honestly, can you blame him? (RELATED: Belgium Uses Trump Dance To Savagely Mock US Men’s Soccer In Thrashing 4-1 Defeat)
USMNT was clapped Monday night in a 4-1 thrashing that saw them eliminated from the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and the main highlight from the Americans was whatever the hell our goalie Matt Freese did that allowed the Belgians to get an easy goal.

Following the match, Portnoy completely unloaded onto U.S. men’s soccer for their trash performance.
“US Soccer is not ready for primetime. I dont wanna be mean but this team is embarrassing,” tweeted Portnoy. “We’re never gonna actually be good at this sport as long as out D tier athletes play it. What a clown show.
“I don’t want to hear that the future is bright for American soccer. That they should be proud. That was a disgusting effort. We’re far closer to the bottom than the top. Just not a soccer country.”

Portnoy didn’t stop with social media posts, however, he also creamed USMNT in a video.
Embarrassing effort from the United States. Lights were way too bright for US soccer team. Stage way too big. If we’re gonna keep creating international incidents over soccer it may be time to institute a soccer draft #usmt #soccer #usa pic.twitter.com/KRJanpBIhs

I think we’re all Dave Portnoy today … absolutely disgusting feeling that USMNT gave us.
