Signing an ex-Port Vale player in the same week you've announced a Stoke friendly. There's some irony for ya.
I don't think he had much of a choice in coming back to MLS. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2012/mar/09/port-vale-administration
“@chrisbirchall7: All the best at the WhiteHouse 2morrow lads @LAGalaxy,me and @FrankieHejduk2 werent invited after we gave everything to win the cup but hey!” Classy LA
Agreed. What did they think Frankie and Birchall would wear Crew gear to the White House? Frankie might have but hey it would have been fun.
Hell, we even brought back Fat Sigi. I can't believe that. That is sooooo classy. I would expect more from a model franchise like LAG.
You always have to remember who runs that team. Arena is a good coach but is also a small, petty and tyrannical jackass. I would not have expected anything else from him.
Obama would be like "Hey Frankie didnt I meet you before?" then some sardonic joke to fill the space and an open handed gesture implying a campaign donation. Frankie would hand him a beer.
We did leave some of the players who were cut and out of the league out of the ceremony IIRC. I don't think George Josten or Ryan Junge were there, not sure if Brad Evans was although I know both Sigi and Ez were... I would have to review the pic lol.
Yeah, Evans was. Got the picture in my office. But I'm not sure I could identify Junge or Jetson (I mean Josten)...
Birchall's interview on thecrew.com was good. I really liked his opinion on the Columbus fans. ...maybe he will fit right in!
