A New Venture

by Jrodius on 04/20/2009

Some of you may be aware that I used to cover the LA Galaxy for a website called American Soccer Reader.  The site is now defunct but the owner has launched an updated version now titled World Soccer Reader.  He has reenlisted me to cover my Galaxy again.  The site went public today.  He also published my newest article.
