If you have followed any of my ramblings, you know that I am a proud dad of two great soccer playing sons. Our family loves soccer . . . ahem . . . I mean futbol! Not only that, but I am a proud husband of my wife who has fallen in love with the game and plays on a women's indoor team and a co-ed outdoor team. Me? No, I don't get play at all . . . you kind of need legs that work for this game. But, I do love to watch it, so I am still blessed by the game.
We watched a FANTASTIC movie last night that I would recommend to anyone, even if they aren't really into soccer. Goal! The Dream Begins is a story about a young man who lives in Los Angeles (from Mexico), who has a passion for soccer and amazing talent. He gets noticed by a former scout and is invited to play in Europe, for Newcastle United. I won't tell you anymore . . . but you must add this to your Netflix/Blockbuster account or pick it up next time you are renting some DVD's. You can watch the trailer here.
In other soccer news . . . we are SO looking forward to the upcoming Colorado Rapids season. They have a new look, a new stadium a new partnership. Not only that, but the 2007 MLS All-Star game will be held here at the new stadium. It is going to be a great season!
And whatever your opinion is of this guy . . . he will bring a new level of interest in the game, just as this guy did a couple of years ago.
Soccer . . . it's a kick!
