A few months ago, Peter Wilt posted an interview here with Jeff Cooper in which he described him
as arguably "the most powerful man in soccer in the Midwest and one of the most influential in the
country."
Cooper is the lead man behind a unique endeavour in American soccer: a professional men's club

Sunday. They were the second game of a double header against St. Louis Scott Gallagher. The U16's
tied the first game.From the start of the match the Wizards U18's was the better team. St Louis had
their chances but were not very dangerous.

I'm happy to report (thanks to a heads up from NSC reader Michael) that St. Louis is back from the drawing board with another vision for a deluxe soccer-specific stadium to finally land an MLS franchise. If this one actually goes through, it would create a cozy campus of awesomeness with Union Station, new Busch Stadium and the Kiel Center (home of the Blues).
Join Scott Bornstein, Brian Bentley and Sarah Wilson as they discuss that week that was and the
week that will be in Major League Soccer along with fans from cities across North America.

Last week we learned details of another soccer specific stadium plan headed by a group not
associated with Jeff Cooper, a St Louis attorney who has MLS dreams.
Today we hear from Cooper regarding that groups proposal.

The developer of a $572 million Major League Soccer stadium and mixed-use center in
Collinsville said a similar idea brought before Richmond Heights, Mo.
So many stadiums....So few investors. File this under, interesting but only if Jeff Cooper or
someone else has the cash to properly enter MLS.
From St Louis Today:
Update (2:10 p.m.)
While Gateway Real Estate Partners hopes to build a Major League Soccer stadium in Richmond Heights
(see full story below), it's doing so without the explicit support of the group that's trying to
bring an MLS franchise to St.
The recent rash of MLS expansion has seemingly left St. Louis in its dust. Despite being an early
favorite before Vancouver and Portland jumped to the head of the pack, Jeff Cooper's bid was
deemed...
What ESPN HS has called the premier Midwestern High School tournament, the 2012 Gateway City Soccer Classic will feature 62 teams this year from across the United States. Included in that list are eight teams from Central and Southwest Missouri that will battle for a Final 4 spot in late October.

You ever date somebody for a long-ass time then get nostalgic for your old high school girlfriend,
find her via Facebook, break up with your main chick to go back to your hometown to be with her,
then realize that she's not as hot as you remember her & has loads of debt so you end back with
your main girl thinking "maybe I should have stayed here in the first cotdamn place.
AC St. Louis is rapidly becoming the funniest thing in American soccer since Dwight Schrute was in
those Nike ads a few years ago. In an uncomfortable comedy move that Michael Scott would surely
approve of, fans of the team have dubbed an unofficial mascot "Chickenhead"; there is even a
Facebook page dedicated to this "OMFG are you kidding me" achievement.
If I were to offer you a steady paycheck for playing soccer and getting interviewed by Hooters
girls afterward, many of us would be perfectly fine with committing a murder or two for the
opportunity. But to actually see a player of Steve Ralston's caliber actually living this dream is
somehow not as cool.
Yesterday's announcement of a breakaway league from USL-1 had a great symbolic significance. It
seems after many false starts and false hopes, outdoor soccer may finally be coming home to St
Louis.
November 10th, 2009 could very well be remembered for future generations as the day Soccer came
home.

The Wizards Junior U16 team played their first home game as part of the US Development Academy last
Sunday. I missed most of the first half but from what I was told it seems like St Louis had the
better of the play and was leading 1-0 at half. Brian Bement scored for St. Louis in the 39th
minute.After half the Wizards started taking control of the match.
Props to midfielder Jack Jewsbury for his inclusion on Saint Louis University's Half-Century Team,
as selected by an online vote. Jewsbury is the most recent alumni included on the team, leaving SLU
one year later than Sunday's opponent Brad Davis of Houston. Check out the full team that includes
former Wizards Matt McKeon and Mike Sorber and one-time Wizards draftee Kevin Kalish.
Much has been said and written about St Louis's lack of a billionaire big money owner-investor for
an MLS expansion side but it has almost been universally assumed that such a team would be well
supported. Today we take a closer look at that through the eyes of Superliga.
When MLS/SUM made the decision to place a Superliga match in St Louis, regardless of what they may
say officially, they probably wanted to gauge the response.
Man. It's hot. Like seriously, unbelievably hot. Maybe that's just because the press box isn't air
conditioned. But if it feels like this up here, I can't even imagine what it must have felt like
running around on the field today. We saw some good bits of soccer from both teams, an outstanding
save from Kevin Hartman and a couple of near-misses from Wizards players.
First, Jack Jewsbury was delayed twice at KCI waiting for a plane from Colorado. Then, Atlas was
delayed by about six hours due to a storm in Chicago. They were scheduled to arrive in St. Louis at
around 10:45 last night. Well, they didn't get here until more like 4:45 a.m. Atlas was originally
scheduled to train today at 10 a.
Tickets for the Manchester City against Chelsea friendly to be played in St Louis on May 23 sold out within minutes of going on sale today, reports the St Louis Post-Dispatch.
"I think if we had a 100,000-seat stadium, we could have sold it out," said Vicki Bryant, vice president of event services and merchandising for the Cardinals.
The National Soccer Hall of Fame contains a number of famous names and memorabilia (over 80,000 to be exact), but since February 2010, has had no home to call its own.
While inductions continue -the USSF announced this year the inductions of Tony Meola, Claudio Reyna, Tony DiCicco, and Desmond Armstrong – a physical location where fans can share in their successes and stories ceases to exist.
Milwaukee Marquette and Middleton, ranked first and second among Wisconsin boys soccer teams in state and regional polls, will join some of the country's other top sides at the eighth annual Gateway City Classic this weekend in St. Louis and nearby O'Fallon, Ill.

The NSCAA will offer the High School Diploma in the St Louis area over
the weekend of November 16, 2012 through November 18, 2012. This course is meaningful and impactful
to all who have attended. Rob Herringer will be directing the course with support from other great
coaches from around the country.
If not just for the mere fact that he plays for Houston, Brad Davis already has one strike against
him in the eyes of FC Dallas fans. However, it's easy to appreciate the kind of player he has
developed into and the fact that he also played here in both 2003 and 2004. Here's a brief exchange
with this former FCD midfielder.
Attention book nerds, there is a new American soccer tome on the block. It's called Soccer Made in
St. Louis and it's about the secret history of Toledo, OH's underground Polish badminton
leagues.
OK fine, it's about the obvious --St. Louis soccer-- and you should check it out.
This is from a little while ago, but we just got hold of a video that Kei Kamara shot during the
trip to play AC St. Louis. You already know that Mikey can beat-box like crazy, but here's another
