Americans Abroad: 3 Players Ready For Qatar And 2 Who Look Lost

Another week, another opportunity to explore the depths to which I will exploit recency bias. Is Leadership Council member Christian Pulisic really being left off the plane or is that just a crutch for article formatting?

Back in June, the United Nations agreed to officially change the country's name from Turkey to its Turkish name of Türkiye.
