Colorado Caribous 1978 jersey. Can't wait to see this brought back!
"Party Like It's 1979″, says the usually stone cold sober Kenn Tomasch. "The future of
American soccer appears to be the past of American soccer."
Kenn writes this because news broke today that the breakaway second-tier league made-up of nine
former USL and new clubs may use the North American Soccer League name for itself, after Miami FC
put in two trademark claims.

Y no solo anÃmicas sino toda la concentración posible en momentos en que un
hecho tan conmovedor llega removiendo sentimientos de dolor y de nostalgia. Hoy a dÃa jueves y con
tan solo un dÃa y horas por disputar el partido de ida contra un rival como América, debe ser
momento en que la afición arrope y apoye al equipo.

Remontarnos a finales de la década de los 90's resulta obligado recordar la
última etapa de dificultades por las que pasamos como afición. Después de una fiesta
que resulto la primera parte de esta década, con grandes contrataciones, proyección y la
definición de una nueva personalidad.

And now, a moment of self-regarding nonsense on our part, if you don't mind.
What you are reading now may seem fairly ordinary by our standards (and indeed it is), but this is
in fact a very special post. Put simply, this is Some People Are On The Pitch's 1,000th post.
We appreciate the sentiment and sense of achievement might be lost on most of you but when this
humble little football blogsite started out in 2006, it was difficult to believe that one day we
might end up with 1,000 articles to our name.

The end of season funk that I normally fall into has in the last three seasons been ameliorated by
the continuation of the LAPL and this season by the U10 Boys Dinamo team that is playing in Santa
Monica AYSO.
The funk has been cast completely aside by FK Dinamo's incredible run since mid season in The Los
Angeles Premier League where we've lost one game in the last 7 and won the other 6 - we haven't
drawn all season.

I lived in Ghana for many years, and it is with happy nostalgia that I have seen that the Ghana U20
team has won the 2009 U20 World in Egypt, by defeating Brazil in the final, 4-3 after penalty
kicks! This is the first time ever an African team wins this tournament, and breaks eight years of
South American dominance in the tournament, although Ghana was also in the final in 1993, losing to
Brazil

The trouble with nostalgia is that there's no future in it. I don't really do nostalgia, probably
something to do with the onset of senility. I'm more interested in the prospects for the team on
Saturday and the possibilities for the season. There's plenty of nostalgia about of course as
befits the supporters of a team whose future has been largely in the past.

"Saponetta" non c'è più
Ci sono calciatori che non lasciano il segno. Ci sono calciatori che sono passati dalla serie A
e vengono ricordati per qualche particolare. Ci sono calciatori che aprono la nostalgia ai ricordi
per una generazione.
C'erano calciatori che adesso non ci sono più.

We here at COS Towers love a bit of nostalgia and we think that you do too.
As kids we all remember playing footie until it got dark, or until that irritating kid decided
we couldn't use his ball anymore, and we all recall with alarming vividness pretending to score a
goal in the manner of our heroes.

Today, Arsene Wenger becomes the longest-serving manager in the club's history surpassing the
legendary George Allison on his 4,749th day as manager of the Arsenal. It is, then, a suitable
occasion for a bit of retrospection and maybe even a bit of sentimentalism and nostalgia as
well.
Having started following the club in the late-90s, I have never known an Arsenal side that was
not managed by Arsene Wenger.

Esta noche se sintió la historia en el aire dentro de un Luigi Ferraris colmado. Historia por que
se enfrentaba el máximo ganador de tÃtulos locales ante los anfitriones, un equipo dominador del
Calcio a comienzos del siglo XX, con nueve trofeos en su haber. Pero no todo fue nostalgia y
recuerdos en blanco y negro, el presente les sonrÃe a dos equipos candidatos a la vanguardia de la
Serie A que
