How can a major sports channel like ESPN confuse Georgia, the country, with Georgia, the US state, when showing a world-cup qualifying match???

The yanks are clueless when it comes to Soccerball.

I can't read the link because I'm not on facebook.

bit of a clanger but i doubt it'll keep anyone up at night.

USA met Jamaica in WCQ games twice in the past week. After the first game which they lost, there were no post game interviews with the Jamaican coach, no player ratings for the Jamaican team and no permission for Jamaican media houses to broadcast the second game from the US. That's how they roll.
