Former San Diego Spirt and New York Power midfielder Jen Nielsen and her husband Bo were guests on "Inside Soccer" yesterday for the last half of the show. During the program they talked about the WUSA, Danish soccer, and their new business JB Soccer. The link to yesterday's show on World Talk Radio is now available: INSIDE SOCCER May 22, 2004 (Bo and Jen first arrive in the studio at the beginning of segment 5 and the actual interview starts near the middle of this segment.)
During the Nielsen segments Brian Quinn had a funny comment about how his former San Diego Sockers coach Ron Newman used to call the San Diego Union "the onion" because it always brought tears to his eyes. I usually look forward to Mark Zeigler's Wednesday Goal! page, but today I felt like it was one big onion since there wasn't a single sentence devoted to women's soccer and absolutely no mention at all of this Saturday's big match between the SD WFC and AJAX at Hoover High.
Jen Nielsen Will Play This At HDC This Sunday I found out yesterday from an extremely reliable source that Jen Nielsen has decided to play in the WUSA festival at the HDC this Sunday , however, she might not be playing for the Spirit.
