First dibs on thread title change?! Rocky Mountain High: Wooten comes home to a place he's barely been before! Hopefully he goes to Colorado so I my awesome thread title fits.
Don't f*** with me like that, jerk! I may or may not have have leaped out of my chair in my office, banged my knee cap, and had to play it off. I was excited...... then I read "hopefully". Sigh........... I have my fingers crossed.
for some reason, I got him and Kiesewetter confused. Hopefully Wotten can get a high six-figure salary.
I wasn't aware that Cincinnati had so much German culture. I had questioned why it was simply FC (name of city). Pretty interesting.
Avg 2Bund salary is around 480K so I'd suspect that Wooten would get a sub 400K salary here. Maybe around the 300-350 range....which is pretty solid if you ask me.
It’s pretty wild whenever I travel to the Midwest and see how much German ancestry there is... comparatively, the South has a much greater Scottish feel to it.
That's a great point. I always think like Minnesota-Norwegian, Iowa-German or Czech, Illinois-Irish, whereas yeah the South is that old Irish and Scottish and English from 18th century with the basic John Smith template of names. Though, Louisiana we had Cajuns so it was a bit different.
There were a lot more Germans in America before 1913. By 1915 most of them had been replaced by Dutch, Danes, Swedes and Brits with funny accents.
(whisper: I was suggesting all the Germans converted to other Northern European types with funny accents 'round about 1912 for some strange reason...) It's way OT but the US had a huge amount of legit German-language stuff going on: schools, newspapers etc etc up until WWI. Then it became a tad uncool to be speaking the language of the guys shooting at US farm boys in Flanders. So the whole German thing kinda Hans-Petered out.
Philly? Andrew Wooten finalizing deal with Philadelphia Union https://t.co/O1CGumzEga pic.twitter.com/f0DX7Jg5tr— ProSoccerUSA.com (@ProSoccerUSAcom) June 20, 2019
