Just for grins I thought I would put a list of foreign based coaches with Tampa connections for the
Rowdies management to consider as candidates for their first head coach. For those of you who might
be bit slow on the uptake, I know that most of these guys are not serious candidates. This is just
a bit of fun to kill boredom.

The newest Q&A is up and taking questions, but there was still the matter of the last batch of
unanswered questions from the June Q&A. They're finally done and ready to go.
There were plenty of national team questions, including a few about U.S. coach Bob Bradley.
There were also questions about journalists, Kenny Cooper and world soccer regions.

Jurgen Klinsmann and John Carver left their respective jobs within a few short days of one
another. While Klinsmann was sacked, and Carver left voluntarily both are bad signs for the current
perception of American football in Europe.

Juergen Klinsmann, who had been unsuccessfully courted by U.S. Soccer to replace Bruce Arena in
2006, has been sacked from his first coaching job since guiding host Germany to third place of 2006
World Cup. Bayern Munich dismissed Klinsmann on Monday following the latest disappointing result --
a 1-0 loss to Schalke 04.

I'm pretty sure Prost didn't break the story, but that's where I read it first, so he gets the
credit from me.
The story, of course, is the de-Bayernification of Juergen Klinsmann. Who the hell is John Carver?
(I know, he's the guy properly eviscerated below.) I haven't seen an upstaging this badly since the
Who blew the Stones clean off the Rock and Roll Circus.

Wenn Trainer anfangen, über Erfolge zu reden, während alle um sie herum die Wunden bitterer
Niederlagen und Enttäuschungen lecken, wird deutlich, dass diese Trainer längst ausserhalb des
Vereins stehen. Dass sie sich in einer Phase der Selbstverteidigung befinden, die bereits in
Selbsttäuschung übergegangen ist.

I followed Bayern Munich's 5-2 humiliation by Werder Bremen last weekend with strangely mixed
feelings.
On the one hand, like most fans here, I relished the spectacle of the arrogant Bavarian giants
getting their clocks cleaned at home. On the other, I have young Bayern keeper Michael Rensing in
my fantasy football team, and his bad day at the office brought back unpleasant memories from the
late '70s of the Bristol Blue Devils being thrashed by the Damariscotta Lions 8-nil –- with
yours truly in goal.

I missed this one from a couple weeks ago. It's nice to see that the league has the sort of
coaching talent that someone like Klinsmann would be interested in. The MLS Zone:
Chivas USA assistant coach Martin Vasquez has accepted a position as assistant to
Jurgen Klinsmann with German giant Bayern Munich and will be leaving the MLS club immediately,
according to a press release put out by the club today.
