Good site that gets personal with Landon Donovan’s childhood. Has a few personal childhood pictures too. About half-overlapping with my existing hoard.
****************************************
I do think Landon was awful in World Cup 2006 in relation to World Cup 2002. The fact that he was just average in World Cup 2006 but still shines in MLS means that MLS is still just a minor league compared to Europe, but I wouldn’t call it outright awful though. Its more like Major League Basebal being like the English Premiere League and AAA Minor League baseball being like Major League Soccer. I see the USL 1st Division is similar to single-A minor league baseball relative to the EPL. Landon wants to stay in the USA for happiness reasons and I support it. But he’ll never be an international superstar in MLS, but I don’t think he cares.
