Oh okay. Loved all over the world. but not made up by Americans, so it is a kommie sport. brilliant ! so a Rolex is a kommie watch, Porsche, Bmw, Mercedes, Ferrari, Hurco machines and thousands of other products are Kommies.
Didn't say any of it was bad, maybe a little slow to catch on in the U.S. as opposed to, like everywhere else but HD widescreens seem to be correcting that. My kids all played up through HS, the two youngest still do in adult league although those have something of a Central America flavor to them. Matter of fact, when #2 plays, they have to get the Sunday games in before the Brunch business starts at El Torito or they are shorthanded. They call it the bus boy and waiters league and he stands out like a Q-Tip in a buckthorn thicket.
Geez, don't take it personally.
I asked him if communication was and issue and he told me all he needs to know is andale and rapido.
You know Mike Fox?
Mike was on the 1984 Olympic team. We played at CSUF Fullerton together. Played against Paul in youth through college and with him on the U17 CA team. Just saw him a few months ago here in San Clemente. I've got young kids playing so I still run into guys from time to time. I too dont understand the soccer haters, but whatever, let em hate.the name rings a bell . but I don't know. ? Maybe ? bad with names. that was another life ago for me. Have been out of the soccer scene, for a few years now, since both kids are done playing. have to wait for Grand kids now.
we still go to Germany every two years to visit relatives, but actually to watch pro soccer for 3 weeks. and drive fast on the autobahn. :thumbsup
there were few of us Americans that went over to Germany in the early 80's
Paul Calagire and Brad Smith were the ones that really made in my era. Paul the most. he made a good living playing soccer and now coaches club and college here in so cal.
we probably played together or against each other. did you know Kaleb Suri. Dale Irvine . biggest rival for us were La Jolla Nomads with Derek Armstrong and Tad Bobeck who coaches at the Blues, but use to coach Culver palisades. years ago. Torrance united, south bay gunners.
Yep, Dale played with us in OPD for a long time, and the U17 team Kaleb trained with us at Fullerton one spring but decided to play somewhere else. Two other names: Reid Thibadeau and Rich Smith? Reid was the best man at my wedding. I played for Villa Park Rowdies. I'm sure we did play against youI played For NHB.
Paul played for Diamond bar kickers. he was a year older then me.
we hated south bay teams
I probably know Mike
