I believe I have to thank Du Nord for pointing out that Paul Gardner had written a column for soccernet.com. This particular column from the most-opinionated-one is worth reading for its style (or lack thereof) alone. But beyond form, this column marks perhaps the only time that I have ever agreed with Gardner on a football related matter. Mr. Gardner has turned his broadside towards US Soccer's Bradenton Academy.
