@MikeWoitalla @socceramerica @MLS @MikeWoitalla, soccer fans were really the lucky ones the day you joined Soccer America! It sure has been a journey, hasn’t it?!

[Lynn Berling-Manuel @BerlingManuel]

@H_C_Carter Lisa Cole is a rock star who shows up every single day for her players, her colleagues and her friends. We are all just lucky to have her!

@Yael_Averbuch I was so impressed when you first came to my office to tell me about Techne Futbol and your new company. You were also sharing stories of the challenging life of a female pro soccer player with the struggle to make ends meet. You’ve created a success story on so many levels!

@AlexiLalas @AlexiLalas I continue to believe Akers is the fiercest U.S. player ever for either USWNT or USMNT. Can we give her her own mountain?

[College Soccer Truth ™ @ImCollegeSoccer]

Recruits, a truth about life is that your club and HS friends right now that you’re so worried about what they think of you…..you’ll lose contact with most of when you go to college.

Long after college, you’ll be lucky if you stay in touch with one or two from HS.

So stop worrying about what they’ll think of you now.

If you want to save money for 2 years, (JUCO), do it. If you receive great academic scholarships to play soccer, ( D3), do it. If you’re offered an athletic scholarship at a school with your major, (NAIA,D2), do it.

The friends you’re worried about now won’t even be friends years from now. Worry about what’s best for you.

Sigi also had an amazing influence on coaches, journalists, fans and all who loved him. Gone too soon for all of us.

@MenInBlazers Having moved to Kansas City seven years ago, we have discovered it is the center of the world. WC26 is a testament to that fact! Who knew?!

[Lynn Berling-Manuel @BerlingManuel]

@ussoccer @CoachGallimore Friend, mentor, leader extraordinaire…Les, I love you. @CoachGallimore, @ussoccer at last realized what it has right under its nose!

[Lynn Berling-Manuel @BerlingManuel]

@pkedit Paul, your bravery in leaving your law practice and joining Soccer America to lead its editorial efforts those many years ago is one of the luckiest breaks American soccer fans ever had. I still consider it my finest sales pitch ever! You are the dean of soccer journalism.

[Lynn Berling-Manuel @BerlingManuel]

@ziplamak Grant adored you. And worried about you. Keep talking to us. You have an extended soccer family that is some of his gift to you. And, honestly, to us.

[Lynn Berling-Manuel @BerlingManuel]

@celinegounder @TaylorTwellman @GrantWahl Absolutely stunned by passing of @GrantWahl. An incredibly kind man. He stopped me a few years ago just to say thank-you for @SoccerAmerica. It had helped inspire his career. @celinegounder, he was so proud of you. He knew he had married his soul mate.

[NCAA Soccer @NCAASoccer]

UCLA's Margueritte Aozasa became the 1st coach in NCAA women's soccer history to win a National Championship in their first year as a head coach and also became just the fourth female head coach and second Asian-American head coach to win a title.
