    I like Frankie. I'm glad he's back. I hear the surfing is good in Columbus. I look forward to his crosses missing their mark by 30 yards.

    Could someone explain to me why Frankie doesn't get any love? All I hear is people bashing him all the time when this is a guy who started in the World Cup.

    who bashed him in this thread?


    i see 3 guys cracking jokes... you don't play almost every minute for your country in 2 world cups and suck, but you also don't get by being known as the surfer dude and not get shots thrown your way

    Sounds like a mini-bash to me. I have read in other threads however where there wasn't any big-time bashing but there wasn't anyone who seemed thrilled to have him back. I know from the DC board that we were thrilled to have Earnie Stewart join us. It just didn't seem like people were very excited to see Frankie come back.

    I like Frankie but I can see how some fans throw pot shots his way, considering he only seems to bring his A-game every 4 years.

    I said pot. Heh heh.

    I thought this thread was about Hejduk, not Brian West or Cobi Jones...

    Glad to see him back. This will help Columbus a lot.

    What, Columbus will never be playing in the World Cup......

    Frankie has played all his best games on the World's biggest level. He's not a standout at the club level.

    Yet. If the guy can play at a WC level - he oughta be able to find his legs in MLS.

    sorry i started this thread down the wrong path.

    i really do like Frankie and will be psyched to see him on the 5th v. LA, and for the rest of the season as well. i like his fire, his running, his hard tackles for such a skinny little surfer dude, and yes...

    ...those crosses that miss their mark by 30 yards. he's probably tightened them up a tad by now, and if he's got him on target, McBride will get those 10 goals and more that Bradley predicted for him.

    Welcome back Frankie!! :)

    I don't think your post had anything to do with the wacky tabacky or any other extracurricular activity...it's based on presumption...

    The thing I like about Hejduk is that he plays like a crazed wild beast. During the wonderful, magnificent World Cup of last summer, my friends and I were almost frightened by the manic, almost possessed look on his face every game he was playing in. We started calling him Frankie "Wild Animal" Hejduk because he was so psychotic the way he played defense and ran up and down the field seemingly with no end of energy.

    I'm hoping he fits in well with MLS this year. For some reason it gives me great pleasure to see more of our WC heroes playing in our home league. It sure motivates me to go to a few more games this season.
