    Spoke with him many times over the years and while he could never see my particular vision, he was always very gracious enough to lend his time without complaint to listen.

    In an interview with SASH (Society for American Soccer History) at www.USSoccerHistory.org in 2015, Colone was asked what some of his favorite artifacts from the Hall’s collection were.

    “The photo collection of the late John Albok; Sam’s historic archives and papers; the Milton and Irma Ganz Miller collection; Pele’s Santos jersey worn in an exhibition match at Yankee Stadium in 1964; Walt Bahr’s career memorabilia; the NASL collection and many others,” Colone replied. “They were all important treasures.”

    I had not realized that futsal players are now eligible for the Hall.

    I think by 2050 we'll have a futsal player recognized in the Hall of Fame.
