As an American (who currently calls Wellington home), i refuse to claim him until he gets a haircut. :D

I like the way he's playing for the Phoenix currently, sure, but as everyone else has pointed out, there isn't really any chance of him playing for the US, unless he makes an almost inconceivable jump. Solid player, and will be a good A-League/MLS player for a long time, IMO, but not a US international.

All our military bases in Germany are finally paying off with a nice crop of German-American players (:D), and we've got plenty of Mexican-American players to choose from as well, on top of all the other domestic talent.

Currently excited by Julian Green, an 18-year old German-American with Bayern Munich (mostly with youth team, though has had a few 1st team call ups, i think), though we could lose him to Germany (currently playing with with their U-19s).

Good for Boyd to keep his options open, though, and if he can leverage it into an AW call-up, more power to him.

Good for Boyd to keep his options open, though, and if he can leverage an AW call-up somehow, more power to him.
