So yesterday marked the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, and thusly the
reunification of Germany. To mark the occasion I watched the rather brilliant film Goodbye Lenin!
(recommended, if you haven't seen it), which basically takes place during the fall of the Berlin
Wall, from the East German perspective.
Briefly:
*In praise of Galaxy GM and Coach Bruce Arena.
*For Real Salt Lake MLS Cup equals redemption.
* Former Chivas USA Coach Preki was officially unveiled as Toronto's new coach today. Wonder how
much longer Amado Guevara will be around?
*Want to party like it's 1989?
[I'm going to make this the featured post for the next five days, except for Saturday and next
Wednesday when the CONCACAF/CONMEBOL playoff is being played.] Next Thursday is the 20th
anniversary of that historic World Cup qualifier between Trinidad & Tobago and USA. In my opinion,
and I doubt I'm the only person who feels this way, it was the most important match in the history
of US men's soccer because of where they were at that time and where they went from that point.
