A Century of Newsletters

Celebrating 100 Editions and the Journey Ahead

Reaching this 100th edition feels like a milestone worth pausing to appreciate. What began over 15 months ago as a simple effort to track American players abroad has evolved into something far more meaningful—a chronicle of dreams, setbacks, triumphs and the relentless pursuit of excellence that defines this generation of United States internationals.

To everyone who has read these newsletters, shared them, or simply found value in staying connected to our players' weekly journeys: thank you. Your engagement has transformed what could have been a solitary endeavor into a shared experience, a community united by anticipation for what lies ahead in June 2026.

These past 15 months have been extraordinary. We've celebrated plenty of club goals, agonized over injuries to Ricardo Pepi, Antonee Robinson and Cameron Carter-Vickers, witnessed Chris Richards' resilience through the ups and downs at Crystal Palace, and tracked Gio Reyna's transfer saga. We've documented Folarin Balogun's crucial strikes in France, Weston McKennie's consistent excellence in Italy, and Christian Pulisic's moments of brilliance. Each bi-weekly edition has captured the highs and lows—the kind of rollercoaster that makes following this team so compelling.

What makes this journey particularly special is the privilege of staying intimately connected with these players' careers during what may be the most important preparation period they'll ever experience. Every goal, every injury update, every transfer rumor matters not just for their clubs, but for building the squad that will represent us on home soil when the world watches.

As we continue toward that monumental summer of 2026, there's so much more to come. More Weekend Rewinds and Previews to compile, more stories to tell, more reasons to believe. This newsletter will be here for all of it, documenting every step of the path to a World Cup that will define a generation. Here's to the next hundred editions and the unforgettable journey ahead.
