After me pimping him here and elsewhere all week Nowak did the right thing and picked the guy I wanted!
(Again. :D)
Here's your Justin Moose thread.

Does anybody know anything about this Moose character? Will Piotr give him a chance?

I think it is more than appropriate that a man who will inherit all the old "Goooooooooose" cheers had hair like this (http://graphics.fansonly.com/photos/schools/wake/sports/m-soccer/auto_action/291324.jpeg). I like this pick. I like it a lot. I am also glad we didn't draft a forward.

Apparently, he is already complaining that he hasn't started enough games. Peter has asked him to apologize to the team.

is he lefty or righty?
he seemed pretty small standing next to garber. Is he actually little or is Garber pretty big?

I'm glad he changed sports before College.

He's a big guy, isn't he?
:D
Welcome to the team, Justin. Play well on the reserves, and you'll get a shot at the Seniors. And remember: you've got a championship to defend.

hey, what about wearing a Moose head to a game? :) that may not be a good idea if folks already complain about flags!

this is what the soccer "gurus" at ESPN had to say in their pre-draft analysis:
1. Justin Moose, Wake Forest -- Wake Forest's all-time assists leader, Moose probably raised his stock more than anyone else at this combine. A bundle of high energy up and down the right flank, Moose offers versatility at both right back and right midfield. As one coach said, "I think he's done very well indeed, his stock has probably risen as much as anybody's."
The Wake product has the engine to get up and down the wing and, as the Demon Deacons' all-time assist leader, he has shown an ability to use the ball well.
so perhaps another Josh Gros type player, but one that can actually cross the ball. :D

Good. This addresses our most immediate need.

If the team doesn't bring in a discovery, I'm putting my $$$ on DeRoux/Gros starting day.
That's a pre-pre-season pick, which is subject to change

He fits in well with Hudson's idea that MLS stood for Midget League Starts at 5'8" 145lbs.

Peter Nowak is the only man on earth whose smiles look like frowns.

Compare Moose's smile to Wynne's "smile".
That's the difference between someone getting to go to DC United and a guy who is "happy to be in the league".

Justin Moose should be good on the field:
"Returning All-American... possible Hermann Trophy candidate... without question, one of most skilled players to ever suit up at Wake Forest a player who gives Wake Forest the chance to win games... one of the best one-on-one artists in the country... generates excitement in the stands when he has the ball at his feet."
And good in the locker room too:
"A psychology major..." :D
This guy could be Benny Jr. :cool:
Back when Ben had ankles.
Moose could be like... [I]Benny with the jets! :rolleyes:
