    Fiore tells Gallardo to be careful with Kevin Payne as he's a Boca fan. :D

    LOL Im watching it right now too.

    Everytime i see fernando fiore, it reminds me when he was at the RFK and i guess most people didnt notice him until i pointed him out and a bunch of hispanics started calling out his name and he sorta ran away as a result lol.

    Sorry I took off for a while. Mom made us all some tasty salteñas :D

    Basically the two major points Gallardo touched on were that he was intrigued by the concept of coming to America. They asked him if that was it or playing in MLS. He truthfully answered that it was a little of both.

    They then asked him how he felt about being the figurehead of a team like Beckham or Blanco or Angel. He said he didn't mind, didn't feel any extra pressure but at the end of the day it's about the team winning.

    What were they asking Gallardo about Emillio? And what did he say?

    They brought up the point that Emilio was the leading scorer in MLS last year and asked him how well they were meshing together. Gallardo said although they haven't had alot of time together on the field the communication is there. It'll take a little time to learn each others moves but he thinks he can spring Emilio for more goals. Emilio speaking spanish helps alot and credits Jaime with tying them all together.

    Just FYI - Dave Kaspar is scheduled as a guest on the Glenn Davis radio show in Houston tonight (2/11), primarily to talk about the Gallardo signing.

    The show airs from 8:00 - 10:00 pm ET and streams online at www.790thesportsanimal.com.

    The podcast of the show is also usually available the next day - see this post for more info.
