John, glad you have covered this, along with an occasional article on the Timbers/MLS. I must say, though, that it's time that a columnist of your stature, located in perhaps the hottest soccer market in the country, began covering the sport with some regularity, especially during a World Cup. You bring a unique perspective to the topics…
John, glad you have covered this, along with an occasional article on the Timbers/MLS. I must say, though, that it's time that a columnist of your stature, located in perhaps the hottest soccer market in the country, began covering the sport with some regularity, especially during a World Cup. You bring a unique perspective to the topics you write about. Unlike some before you (you and I know who they are) who go out of their way to avoid and even belittle soccer, I'm hoping that you can join the many columnists in the United States who cover the sport (not every day, mind you, but hit the big stories). Your readers reside in an area where pro games sell out in one of the best arenas in the country. They are all watching the World Cup. At the very least, they might be curious as to how you see the competition. I hope you'll think about it and decide to give it a go. I believe your readers and subscribers would appreciate it.

I fully concur.
