Is it bad if I thought, "Worthless without pics"?

I'm guessing he won't make enough at the marriage counseling gig his entire life to cover the cost of the settlement with his former sister-in-law and that doesn't even begin to cover what the ex-wife got in the deal.

This story used to be all over the web a decade ago but most the sources have disappeared slowly over the years.

From what I was told, this wasn't the first and only time.

I'm sure that any psychologist or social worker would likely agree that this type of behavior isn't a "one and done" type of deal.

How the **** can Clark be cheap in the MLS? $1 million dollars salary a year is one of the tops for most MLS starters.

Hell about 3/4 of the players only make like 55k a year.

I view this as a net positive for the Chiefs. Either Clark will be able to focus more attention and time on the Chiefs or he's practicing selling sports teams.

I'm certain he doesn't know jackshit about soccer, either.

Perfect hire.

What could possibly go wrong with the former NFL executive of the year. ROFL and crying all in one fell swoop.

Yes and no. This has all been in the works for a while now. The big deal in this move is MLS's desire for no owner to own more than one team. There were times in the past where some owners owning a number of the teams was vital to keep the league going but that is not the case anymore. AEG owned 3 or 4 teams at some point in the past but they currently only own the LA Galaxy and part of the Houston Dynamo.

MLS is trying to get Hunt and AEG to get down to one team but passing ownership to the "right" owner is more important than just dumping them off on someone. Local ownership is strongly strongly desired but I am not sure a lack of it would be a deal breaker if someone wanted to come in and sweep up the Crew. It is interesting though even though he lives in Dallas I see Columbus as a better soccer market and a better organization to run. But who knows.

You might be the only soccer fan I know of... In America.

You would be surprised.

Well, we figured out a MeMeMe mult. She's setting herself up for a long rebuttal her3.

I'll be the first to admit that I am not a soccer fan. I don't dislike soccer, nor do I hate it, but much like baseball, it's an acquired taste.

That said, soccer in the U.S. is growing exponentially. It's impossible for me, in Los Angeles, to go virtually anywhere without seeing or hearing soccer. I have old friends in JoCo that swear that Sporing KC and their stadium are second to none in terms of value, sight lines and fun.

Again, not my trip but its ludicrous to state that soccer is somehow invisible.
