We all know Steve Nash is a soccer fan.  He and his family grew up playing the sport, he’s trained with the Red Bulls, etc.  So why is he our fan of the week?  Because he is throwing down his own coin to be one of the eight owner operators in the new Women’s Soccer League.  People often times talk big game, but they do little to back it up.  Then you have cats like Steve Nash.  He has consistently been one of the biggest supporters of the game in the US, but he has gone about it with his own sense of doing it.  With Nash’s experience in the NBA and his partner Jeff Mallett’s experience as Chief Operating Officer of Yahoo!, these dudes should bring some interesting ideas and vision to the new league.  With all that Steve has won in his life, I’m sure being our fan of the week will rank right up there with his most important awards!  Congratulations!
