Well, it's time to consider nominations for CONCACAF Player of the Year again. I was reminded of
this courtesy of Nick Green's coverage of the FIFA Women's Player of the Year finalists.
In a nutshell, FIFA blew it. Three of FIFA's nominees would technically be eligible for my award -
Marta, Kelly Smith, and Cristiane.
It's been a season full of individual awards for Landon Donovan, and the Los Angeles Galaxy star
added another one to his 2009 tally, as U.S. Soccer named Donovan the Male Athlete of the Year for
the third time.
Surprisingly enough, it's the first time Donovan has won the award since 2004, when he won it
two years running.
