By Dario Camacho - MIAMI, FL (Dec 19, 2011) US Soccer Players -- When you are a kid living in Bogota, Colombia there comes a time and realization that one day, you must pick a side. The eternal battle between the local teams, Millonarios and Santa Fe de Bogota is one of the countries oldest rivalries.

BOGOTA – I checked off a "global first" this morning: I watched English Premier League Soccer from Colombia.

Oh, have I mention that I am in Colombia?

I arrived last night, got some shut-eye then hopped up for food and EPL on the tele down at the breakfast bar.
