Garth Bale has been the revelation of the EPL this season


The next generation of players are starting to come into the MLS, these are players that have grown up watching the USA play on the world stage. The generation that is right behind them are 10-15 years old now and they have grown up in soccer academies, watching their favorite MLS & European teams and rooting for USA at World Cups. I predict this will be the first generation to skip college and move into the professional ranks and help put Soccer on the map in the USA.

We have seen it many times, a guy asks his girl to marry him at a big sporting event. This guy decided to do it on the field at a soccer game in Belgium and she did a runner and he was left on his knees!
