I saw Freddy on "Best Damn" & its was by FAR the best segment I've seen of his on a talk show. The entire segment was about 10 minutes long & he seemed a bit more nervous talking to 4 hosts compared to just 1 with Letterman. The 2nd half, the 4 hosts went out & played goal AT THE SAME TIME while Freddy took penalty kicks. It was HILARIOUS seeing 4 guys in the net including the 7 ft tall John Sally try to block Freddy's shots. He went 4/5 ,but I think he let them block the last one. Overall, Adu is a PR MASTER & will make 10000000X more money for Nike than Lebron James will.
If MLS were smart they'd have a page on MLSNet that listed TV appearances across the league. Yeah, "if MLS were smart" ...
What happened with him on Kimmel last night? I taped it and he wasnt on? Any news of a reschedule, cancellation?
Actually it DOES matter, cuz if he makes Nike a lot of money, they'll be doing a MUCH bigger push on Soccer in the states. That can ONLY be better for MLS. Think of a Nike Commercial where Freddy Adu schools some basketball players like Edgar Davids. Now THAT would give soccer some respect in the states. In the end, pro sports is all about the BENJAMINS
