My boy Jacy up at Nike has a similar soft spot for sneakers just like me. He also has been known to participate in the #todayskicks on Twitter, which I have yet to jump in on. I check all the twitpics everyone puts up of their kicks from that day, but have never posted my own for some reason.  That stops here and now.

Today the mailman drops off a package for me from Nike, and inside are the Air Max’s you see above. So I’m going to jump in on my first #todayskicks with these Air Max’s in this OG colorway. I’m officially in the game now!

Thanks for the kicks fam.

We take a lot of pictures in our daily lives. They represent experiences and events that we somehow manage to finagle ourselves into on a pretty consistent basis. Some are soccer related, some have seemingly little to do with the sport, but they all have something to do with the lifestyle that we live. I’ve been getting more and more requests to share more pictures, so I figured it’s a good time to start posting more on here. Some might seem pretty obscure or incredibly random, but so is a majority of my life…so that kind of works.

Stu Holden and Charlie Davies posted while on duty with the US National Team.  These cats are a part of a very bright future for US Soccer. Good looking out on the BPFC Laurel Crest shirt Stu!

Thanks to all those that emailed us about this picture. If you are not already, follow Stu and Charlie on their Twitter pages.

Just got this picture sent in of our boy Lonnie in the LA Aztecs t-shirt somewhere in Thailand.

We headed down to Hollywood Park on Saturday to support our boy Robert, and his horse Star Nicholas who was running its biggest race to date. Star Nicholas came through, did his thing and will be moving on to bigger races. Congrats to Robert and his dad, and thanks for being gracious hosts as always!

Our boy Robert is among the ownership group of Star Nicholas,  and so on Saturday a few of us headed down to Hollywood Park to check out his horse race. Star Nicholas has had some pretty impressive wins so far, and was among the favorites to win this weekend. Before the race we headed down to the “paddock” to see Star Nicholas up close before the race.

I linked up with Reezy earlier today and we met up with Ray Panthaki and James Alexandrou for breakfast.  This was the first time I had met James and Ray, and they are the type of cats you like to hang out with. Funny, down to earth and full of stories. These dudes have already accomplished an incredible amount, and I am pretty sure that we are going to be hearing a  lot more from them for years to come.  Enjoy LA fellas!
