Very exciting article....

The front page of the ESPN US Soccer web page today reads, "This is Ajax Country". Huh? Read the article, its incredibly inspiring and exciting stuff.

The possible affiliation with my hometown DC United would be a dream come true. The Ajax model for development is just what this country needs to start getting kids to keep playing soccer through their teen age years when they really can start to develop. It would be tremendously beneficial for both sides, for Ajax to gain a larger following in this country would give it a leg up on all but the biggest clubs in the world. And hey, maybe people would start to recognize my Ajax jersey every once in a while! And of course, there would be this...."Its like ay-yax, not a-jax like the bathroom cleaner".
