I mean Dempsey has shown a petulant school girl attitude before. One of the other main reasons leaving Donovan off the team and promoting Dempsey to captain was foolish.

Dempsey's spat with Donovan out of pure childish jealousy is pathetic. Now this. He is a fucking child I don't know why we ask him to lead men. Oh yeah....Altidore is a child too and we have no defensive leadership.

goddamnit

They finished that game with 7 men on the pitch..jeez...
I think Seattle mismanaged the match:

They used up all of their subs early IMHO
A guy got injured and had to be carried off (1 man down)
A guy got a red card that was controversial (I won't throw my opinion on this), 2 guys down.
Dempsey throws temper tantrum, 3 men down.

The only thing I can think of if there was any logic instead of pure emotion in Dempsey's brain at the time is that at that point, being down 1 and short 2 guys (and let's be honest--when was the last time a player complained to an official in *any* sport and got them to change their minds), the game was already lost and he wanted to make a statement and risk a redcard himself. Personally I don't think that's a move a player like Dempsey should have done--but maybe that's my hockey brain talking. In comparison, it's why Lysiak, and not Ruskowski, slew-footed the linesman.

I don't think Dempsey is going to get a benefit-of-the-doubt call for a long while for this.
