This is true. And I dont mind it.
But to the 13 year old kid that identifies with Timmy Howard for a couple of years only to see him bolt to Europe ... is it that easy just to pick a new person to pull for?
Just tell him "Timmay went from making $40K to over $270K a year and is getting to live in Holland, where they love the game and have passion for it. One day guys like Tim-may will be able to stay here and make that kind of money."

Pretty sure not many kids can spell Holland much less find it on a map.
I think Timmay would command a bit more than that though would he not?

They can spell Holland, but they think it is different from the Netherlands, and "who are the Dutch?" is running in their heads.
Do you mean the MLS salary or the Dutch salary? Minimum for a Non-Euro in Holland is aroundd $250K. He might be able to get more, but who can tell.

I hope he can make more than that in Holland. I would think atleast 500,000 but you would know better than I.
Yes, it is time for night.
Glad to see no one voted for West Ham to lose so we could get rid of Roeder. That would have disturbed me.

There is no doubt he "could" make $500,000, but whatever he makes it would be more than he could make in MLS.
More games, better competition, makes Tim a bigger stud.

True.
Oh well. Pretty sure my opinion on the matter figures little into the equation.
Make the big bucks, Timmay.
