My first soccer memories go back to the “Dream Team”, a juggernaut led by coach Johan Cruyff that went on to win four straight La Liga titles, throwing in the 1992 European Cup (now known as the UEFA Champions League) [...]

Soccer is back, and not a moment too soon.

If you’re a soccer fan, World Cup years are a blessing in disguise. Yes, the world’s biggest sporting event is the highest expression of soccer excellence, but after it’s over it leaves us feeling a little withdrawal syndrome. Thankfully, just over a month after Spain rose to glory in South Africa, the English Premier League is back. [...]
