In some of the best news I've heard related to the U.S. men's national team in months, it was announced today that they'll have their training camp at Princeton University ahead of their exhibitions vs. Czech Republic and Turkey before leaving for South Africa and the World Cup.
I'm probably making a bigger deal about it then it really is but wouldn't you rather have the U.S. men's team hunkered down at an Ivy League school in the Jersey suburbs vs. some monster party school like USC, UCLA, Florida, etc.
Last time I checked, Princeton is known for many things but hot girls and crazy parties are two things the school has never been and never will be associated.
I feel like Bob Bradley's head is in the same place since he went to Princeton and played soccer there, leading them to the Final Four in 1993. He knows that eliminating all possible distractions for his players will give them the best chance to succeed.
