Three coaches. One commissioner. Welcome to the inaugural TSS USMNT UltraDraft. Taylor, Graham, and Joe take turns drafting players in an attempt to build the best possible starting lineup, using only players who are currently eligible to represent the U.S. men's national team on the international level. Ryan acts as the commissioner and arbiter of all. We had fun with this one. ---- JOIN THE TSS+ PATREON!
