New Soccer Gear

Spring has sprung and the Men's National Team is coming to Nashville ! For these and several other reasons I decided to buy a new jersey. Now, I am a geek for cool gear, whether it be soccer or electronic, and that has always caused problems with US Soccer gear b/c Nike and US Soccer have always underwhelmed me. You look at the hip things Umbro and Puma do regularly and the things Adidas does sometimes and you see what I'm talking about. After much procrastination the bug to buy got too big and started to search... Initially, I thought the official website or Nike would be best, mainly b/c that's how I shop. I like security of name brands but I decided to look for a cheaper price. After some surfing and googling I ended up at soccerpro.com . It was fun tooling around their "store" they carry all sorts of stuff and have some great prices on some things including the jersey I ended up with. What I first noticed about the site was how much it caters to team gea...

Summer Soccer is almost here!

To celebrate the new MLS season I am going to see the Men's National Team play Trinidad & Tobago . Where would I get to see a World Cup Qualifier , you might ask? Atlanta ? Chicago ? Miami ? No! The Men's National Team is gonna play a World Cup Qualifier, a true CONCACAF match right here in Music City, USA !!

No Sports Critic Am I

I read stuff like this and think, I really don't understand coaching. Yes So for five months, U.S. Soccer gave thousands of American fans serious wood by playing footsie with soccer's savior du jour Jurgen Klinsmann and all the points this guy as well as Jeff Carlisle make are sensible but I obviously don't understand what type of coach Bob is. He seems to be a winner and he seems to have a different view than Bruce Arena . David Hirshey Is The Closer: The New (Old) Mind Behind US Soccer Yes, Bob Bradley finally gets to white out the "interim" on his business card and lead the U.S. to greater heights of mediocrity. That should certainly make the Italys of the world crap their pantaloni. Technorati Tags: us soccer , bruce arena , bob bradley

Speaking of soccer

I'm glad the US Soccer Federation got off their asses and hired a coach , a coach who's been winning as "interim" head coach for months now. Congrats Bob Bradley . We are looking to you for an exciting future.

Wooohooo! We have a coach, we have a good coach. Jürgen Klinsmann already has a strong history with US Soccer and I think it's a positive move to hire him. Who knows if he can revive the team and the organization but I will support his efforts and the team.
