Rolfe's Rationale: "It has a lot to do with the way you're treated"

Fire Confidential | ChicagoNow 11 September @ 01:04 AM EST

At first glance, one would guess that Chris Rolfe's impending move from the Fire to Danish club Aalborg was motivated by a couple of things: 1) the motivation to play in a league with more exposure/higher quality of play and 2) the desire to earn a little more money in a career in which players have a short earning lifespan.
