    Well I am born in Milan and my family supports AC Milan so it's tradition and about Cosmos I got fascinated by them because when I was a teenager my father told me about them so shut the quack up :)

    Hey if the Cosmos were still around from the old days. I am sure Maradona would have be a Cosmo if he did not do all that Coke he used to do.

    Given the whole Studio 54 thing, I am going to wager that a coke habit wouldn't have stood in the way if the team was active when he was in the retirement tour phase of his career.

    If I remember correctly there are at least 2 players that played in the old NASL and MLS, nothing to do with this thread, but the Maradona talk made me think of that.

    I believe Hugo Sanchez and Roy Wegerle are the only ones to play in both on the outdoor teams. Frank Klopas played on the Sting indoor team but not outdoor.

    Klopas broke his leg and was unable to play for the Sting outdoors in 1984, else he would have been the third, yes.

    Tatu was actually (supposedly) offered a contract by the Dallas Burn at startup (he had played outdoors for Tampa Bay) but stayed indoors for a few more years.

    Yeah 4 weeks, why couldn’t they do better. Thanks Kenn for setting me straight.
    Apparently Hartford was told they could reach the $20 million ownership req and fix the stadium up in exchange for unlimited gyros and Shawarma

    Nothing says "community soccer team" like being bank-rolled by an out-of-state billionaire
