Professional

Given the overnight to mull this over, I have come to my decisions on this massive honor. In knowing or having known some of the candidates, I must separate the personal from the professional, although often times, they are entwined. Below by group I have listed both those I would like to see and of course, those I would vote for.

Players: DeRosario, Heath, O'Reilly, Valeri, Wondolowski

Veterans: Beckham, Borja, Sanneh, Tatu, Wagner

Builders/Refs:Gino

Given just 3 players, 2 vets and one builder are to be inducted here is my breakdown and why:

An email went out well under 24 hours in advance, yes, again, it was in fact barely 18 hours pre event for a press conference. There were very few media on it, actually only a trio of us had questions for those attending. Why does this happen, in Real Estate, I get notices on things well in advance, then a few more as the day draws near. They know they do them one or two days ahead of a game, know the times training should end, players shower and get in front of the camera. Coach is typically in on them as is a player to be named.
