Kids Post It should be noted that the two articles about Freddy Adu are from the "Kids Post" section of the Washington Post (found in the Style section, right after the comics), in case anyone was wondering...
Jim's digging into the archives to point out how prescient the American soccer press is. You don't remember the first articles predicting Barrett going to Denmark or Llamosa holding out on the Revs?
I love this: When did you realize that you were REALLY good at soccer? Notice his shirt, oh MLS fans.
Well, there goes Freddy's high school and NCAA eligibility. Next thing we'll see, I suppose, is Freddy's mom trucking him about in a new H2 with Pirelli tires.
I don't really mind if Adu goes elsewhere to play as long as he helps the US to win the World Cup. That will help MLS a lot more in the long run than him actually playing in the league IMO. What kind of name is Sacramento Bee? It sounds like a WUSA or MLS expansion team. -VON
I find it so astonishing that Carson City, Nevada is going to have a PDL team. I know. What's the big deal? It's just a PDL team. But have you ever been to Carson City, Nevada?!
