if there was a tournament with all the current MLS coaches, 1v1, first to 5 goals, who wins? Bradley and Sarchan warm up with their teams, right? they would do all right. Didn't Nicol play when he was younger? as well as Hudson. Sigi would not do well at all, no explanation needed. I'm not sure about Andrulis, Hankinson, Clarke, Gansler, or Yallop. just for the heck of it, here's the matchups: First Round Game 1: Sarachan vs. Ardrulis Game 2: Gansler vs. Schmidt Quarterfinal Game 3: Hudson vs. G1 winner Game 4: Bradley vs. Nicol Game 5: Hankinson vs. G2 winner Game 6: Clarke vs. Yallop Semifinal Game 7: G3 winner vs. G4 winner Game 8: G5 winner vs. G6 winner Final Game 7 winner vs. Game 8 winner
On Western Union World Football, they mentioned that Steve Nicol plays in a local league in New England somewhere. I think he would win.
Besides, as far as I know (unless I'm wrong about Yallop), Nicol is the only MLS coach to have played in the English First Division (what would now be considered the EPL). According to the Revs page, Nicol has won 4 English titles, 3 F.A. Cups, and one European Championship, not to mention several caps for Scotland, including the '86 WC. Plus, he's only 41, so there's probably still something left in the tank. I'd pick Nicol to win, but only after fierce competition from Hudson, Bradley, and Yallop.
