On The Pitch

You’d think one of my most popular posts would be some genius­ nugget about coaching, some funny story, a story where I might have typed ‘hot soccer moms’, stuff like that.

Nope. It’s was ‘Christmas Gifts for Soccer Fans‘. So with Black Friday just around the corner, I figured I’d come up with an updated list so you all could add your own ideas. And yes – if you buy anything from the links here, OTP gets a couple pennies to pay the bandwidth bill.
