You have to admit that Wolves goalkeeper Marcus Hahnemann is not stupid.
He sees the writing on the wall: he's 38 with Tim Howard and the emerging Brad Guzan ahead of him on the depth chart for the U.S. men's national team and he realizes that he won't be playing much save for the random friendly or match against a CONCACAF punching bag.
Therefore Hahnemann is considering retiring from international play and can you blame him?
I'm writing this while I watch Brett Favre play beyond pathetic for the Vikings, a great team that he has completely screwed over by coming back from retirement (twice).
The hardest thing to do in life as a pro athlete is to know when to retire and I applaud anyone who does it with grace, at the right time.
