It has been one hell of a fantastic time watching you play. Thank you for the years of service for both Chicago and MLS. http://www.chicago-fire.com/pressbox/pressrelease/releasetext.asp?prID=1379
i don't care how long you coach united or any other team in the world... forever i will associate your name with the fire thank you i hope you can turn united around, i know you will... you are a complete class act... it will be fantastic to see your persona rub off on the united players and front office
Best of luck. You've always been a gem. Now when the Fire beat DC it we'll all know that it's been a real accomplishment.
This thread should have been much longer. It's never too late to do the right thing: Thank you, Piotr. Your time with the Fire was truly special, and you will always be missed.
A player half as good as Nowak would be 1000 times better than what we have had the last 5-6 years. Peter by far my best player, I have at least a dozen of his jerseys.......Hopefully once Andi sells the team we could start bring back our old players (like Rocky did with the Hawks). #FvckYouAndi
Nowak was the only person I was ever star struck by as a child. We were up in the club at Soldier Field and always had players coming through, but I would always be fine with them. Whenever Nowak made it up there my mom would tell me to tell him my name, but I just stood there and stared. He gave his heart for the club and still loves it. He needs to be on a Bobby Hull or Stan Mikita ambassador basis with the Fire.
For my daughter, it was Marco Pappa. We were at the Meet the Team event at Best Buy one year, and she ran up to all of the players to get autographs. When we got to Marco, she couldn't move. I told her, "just go up and say, 'hi Marco. You are my favorite player' and hold out your pennant for him to sign." So, she summoned up the courage, walked up and said, "Hi Marco. I'm your favorite player."
