    Is Cordeiro related to the Gotti's? Good lord man...his hair and "facial hair" are even more bizarre in the Combine photos.

    They're both worth millions on the international transfer market.

    Re: Welcome Andrew Jacobson, Ryan Cordeiro and Tony Schmitz

    Are the supplemental draft guys going to have even larger pictures?

    I hope his play is as similar to Craig Bellamy's play as his face is.

    Y'all think?

    Both these guys are ranked in the top 10 for their position by Joe and Ives, so I really can't complain much. I look forward to their contributions.

    /I do think it would've been cool to get Yannick, though.

    Bellamy was the first thing I thought of too. Could be his stunt double in the barroom scenes.

    I'm going to get messed with for this, but it has to be said...

    How the hell can you wear boxers when playing soccer?

    Of course I meant under your shorts, but seriously, boxers ride up like a motherf---er, and don't give the twig and giggleberries any support at all.

    Any good player from Creighton would be an asset - How fast is he? - Whats his recovery speed? - How fast can he accelerate? - Possibility for the Wings or an outside Fullback?

    Not that this is terribly relevant, but I hope our new players find our preferences informative.

    I go between boxer briefs and regular snug fit boxes. Loose fitting boxers I cannot handle.

    I tend to choose based on a variety of factors: temperature (tighter for warmth, more loose for ventilation), field type (turf/carpet/rough tighter to avoid turf burns), and the type of play (kick around/practice doesn't matter, competitive more snug).

    I have tried fancy sports underwear and was underwhelmed. Ha.

    Now you know.

    That's one to grow on.

    I favor the Under Armour "boxer jock," myself. Hmmm...this topic may need a whole new thread...

    They're probably not boxers. Rather, it's likely they're compresion shorts of some kind, worn by lots of players.
