"Should Torres and/or Orozco play for the United States in Mexico's famed stadium, it would be tangible proof that while Mexico is still a strong pull for Mexican-Americans, the United States has an equal if not stronger pull."

I don't really get this last paragraph. Are you saying that Torres or Orozco could take a pass on playing against Mexico in the Azteca? But if they accept the call-up, it would prove that Mexican-Americans prefer playing for the US over Mexico????

Kudos for the story, LB. Excellent work, again.

Joe Biden said, “The reason I’ve been relatively successful is that I have never questioned the motive of other senators, and that’s instinctively Barack. Barack doesn’t start off, ‘Well, you disagree, you must be a, you know, an S.O.B. or you must not care about the poor or you’re sexist or you’re racist or you’re a whatever.’ He doesn’t think that way.”
