My Personal List Of Favorite Soccer Happenings In The Year 2005
du Nord, January 4, 2006
In no order particular at all:USA 2-0 Mexico. I was in attendance at Crew Stadium in Columbus Ohio when the USA thumped Mexico to qualify for the 06 World Cup. What a party. 3 crazed days of singing, drinking, eating, story telling, and meeting some very cool people who came from coast to coast. Our boys played a great game. And it's just fantastic to beat the cry-babies from south of the border. My favorite part was defender Oguchi Onyewu dominating Mexico's star striker Jared Borgetti for 90 plus minutes. That glare he gave Borgetti will live in my mind for many years to come.Los Angeles Galaxy Wins The Double. US Open Cup & MLS Cup in the same year. But I still hate the coach Steve Sampson and would like to see him fired immediately. As much as I like this team, I really don't like many of their players all that much.Peter Wilt Fired. The idiots at AEG who own Chicago had the Pres & GM Peter Wilt fired. He is the single most beloved administrator in soccer in this whole country. Seriously, what a cool guy
