    Hey Matt. Thanks very much for your work on this feature. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it and rely on it. I wanted to know if there is any chance you could always put any USMNT or USWNT play in the This Week, Watch For: section? I’m a shameless homer and would love to see their matches up top rather than buried further down. I think you keep the USMNT out there but the USWNT team seems to get a little lost. Not trying to complicate your life, it’s just a wish. Keep up the great work.
