He said in the past that big soccer's board members are people who do not know about soccer. I don't know about you but, this is an insult to me as someone who have been playing ( kindergarten & highschool :D ) and following soccer since i was 6. So, what do you guys think if we ask for his apolozy ? and boycott any future US games before he does that ?

If Bruce was talking about you he pretty much nailed it.

Coming from a guy who can lead an MLS team to three straight MLS Cups, and win two of them, and then lead the USMNT to the Quarterfinals of the world cup, something the likes of France, Argentina, and Portugal couldn't do, I think he has every right to say that we don't know about soccer. Sh!t, if he told me I don't know about soccer, I'd take it as a compliment. And if your accomplishments are winning the kindergarten league and playing one game for the varsity team in a 14-0 defeat, then I think he hit it dead on when it comes to you.

You misinterpreted what Bruce said. Re-read the quote. He basically said, "There are a few people on BigSoccer who don't know jack about the game. I won't mention any names but this one poster named Goooolz really makes some idiotic posts."

I think the fact that Bruce is even mentioning BigSoccer is quite funny, and quite a lift for the site. Am I wrong?

I think it was Marilyn Monroe's agent that once said "Bad publicity is still publicity." :D

Can you give a link to this quote, because I am not aware of what you guys are even discussing. But the mention of boycotting USMNT games is absolutely absurd. If you boycott the games you are not just punishing the coach you are punishing the team and the success of soccer in this country.

He's not telling me anything I don't already know. I'm pretty sure BA knows a lot more about soccer than I do.

On the other hand, I'm pretty sure I know one hell of a lot more about national security policy than he does.

In any case, GOOOOOOLZ should realize that his post is proof positive that Bruce is right.
