Figured I'd post this here, funny stuff. Anyone heard of him? http://www.topix.net/forum/us-soccer/san-jose-earthquakes/TH2LTNR62T9KNA8KJ/p1 http://www.soccercityusa.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?num=1155669589/120#126 http://www.myspace.com/glasgowscot21
Sounds like the embodiment of all stinking slags who got kicked out of all local footie pubs, St. James Park, North Beach, Haight St., anywhere a sloppy, lying, irritating lush overstays his "welcome". Better to be a dick and just kick people like this than to waste a breath on them. F that guy.
wow ... what a clown. I mean, this guy has issues. Because if you're gonna tell that big of a lie and expect people to believe it (in this day and age of the internet and information at your fingertips) .... and especially telling lies like that to soccer fans which are notoriously a zealous and knowledable lot ... reminds of this girl I knew in college. she claimed she was on the national team (a regional team, as she called it). Anyway, I never thought too much about it other than if she's on the team, they must suck. she wasn't very good. Anyway, I heard she got kicked out of the old Mile High Stadium and in some trouble for impersonating a nats player at a nats game. This was right after the big 99 WC world cup win and she was in the stands signing autographs. Got in big trouble, got exposed statewide, etc. It's just sad, embarassing. hope this guy gets some help because I'm sure this isn't the only lie he's living with.
Imagine if we had Alex and Yves on the pitch at the same time. WOW! This guy is an idiot. Although, it does make a good read, and provided some comic relief while eating lunch.
Is mentioning both players in the same sentence really fair? After all, has Alex ever starred in the Belgian version of The Matrix? GO SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES!!! -G
Here is a similar story i experienced. About 3 or 4 years ago me and two of my buddies went to In-N-Out burger after kicking the ball around. And this African American comes up to us and says "are you guys soccer players"? We were all wearing our indoors and had soccer shorts on so it was kind of obvious. So we just were being polite, and said ya we do. Then he comes out with "I could tell by the way you walk." Then he started telling us he played soccer for the Brazilian National team, and how he use to play for Manchester United. Then to cap it all off right before we left he said "Me, Pele and the boys go up to Canada and play soccer every summer." Johan Cruyff was included as one of the boys. I can't remember the guys name, but he told a guy i know who played for the Blackburn Reserves long time ago and owned an Indoor soccer place in Vacaville the same thing.
After reading the posts in that forum, I'm starting to think there might be a movie to be made from this story..

To those of you wondering what Alex did for Christmas 2006 (from a post)... He was with my family and me. My cousin works at the employee store, and he and Alex had begun hanging out a few days before. I met him Dec. 23rd, when I went with him and my cousin to Asian Gardens for karoke night. Anyway, he spent Christmas Day at my aunt and uncles house with our entire extended family. He was hitting on almost every woman there. My mom even made a comment when we got home that he was full of bullshit. He claimed his accent comes on stronger the more he drinks.. whatever. What an ass... glad I found this tonight, so I can make sure my cousin doesn't let him take advantage of his family's hospitality anymore. He doesn't deserve it.

The reference to the old Hotel De Anza is nearly comical. Didn't it close down sometime in the mid-1980s, IIRC, during a major Downtown San Jose re-development project?
Never got that Quakes jersey number, kiddo. Need it for the lot I wanna make to hawk to his legions of new supporters*. And for the stadium brick. And statue. *(This might actually not be a bad business proposition...)

The funny thing about that is that the whole thing is unclear, murky, difficult to read. HAHAHA!!! Yes "Sir", Thank you "Sir", may we have another?
I wonder if Alex has been following all the good news. Because we'll need him in shape and ready to hit the ground running once we get our team back.
I know this is an old thread, but I just want to warn everyone to be careful. This person is stalking me via Facebook. First he used the name Alex Bradford. After I blocked him, he changed it to Alex J Mengel Jr. He told me that he worked on the Iron Man movies!
