Buy the Book

Sunday, November 1st, 2009

Go to Amazon and get Bruce’s Book now.

Bruceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can’t make this stuff up.

I was at the Wizards game last night with my wife. We ran into Alex Ovechkin and his dad. I spoke to Alex a bit about the season so far, the schedule and the team.

Alex said, ”I love coach. He is honest, loyal and knows the game. He doesn’t tell me anything about offense though only about I must play D and cover the middle.” He then smiled and said, “Bruceeee!!!!!!!”

When the best player in the world respects a coach that is a good sign and part of a great partnership.

Mike Wise wrote a good piece here. Check it out and go say, “Bruceee!!!!!”

Oh yeah, the real and first “Bruceee!” is playing at Verizon Center this Monday night. Think I will invite coach to the show.

Street Soccer Changes Lives

If you love sports and want to help make the world a better place, get involved with Street Soccer USA.

Here is a good ESPN story on Street Soccer USA and it shows how competition, team work and comrades in arms can help change a life for the better. Get involved. Do something. Play soccer and help.

Thanks Mike - Most Appreciated

Here is a very pleasant and nice blog post by Mike Milbury on Alex Ovechkin. It is wonderful to gain respect around the NHL. Go Caps!
