I didn't see interview, but when I have seen him speak -- he is very well spoken. His mother has done very well.

Yea he is 14 watched the interview and you can tell still young. But I have to say well spoken and not a bad income for a 14 yr old

Suprised his mother let Freddy go to the U-17 camp, but not Fro. I'd think he might be jealous.

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING

"She would wake up at 5 in the morning, leave at 6, go to work … She gets off work at 6 in the evening, to go to an overnight job. She worked, I mean, unbelievable amount of hours, you know?"
-- Freddy Adu describes the work schedule of his mother, Emelia, before he landed lucrative contracts with Nike and MLS. ("60
Minutes")


"Well, you know, they say that there's a bulls-eye on your back sometimes when you play. He's gonna have one on his back and on his chest, on his forehead, on his legs."
-- U.S. coach Bruce Arena on Adu, who will debut in MLS with D.C.
United against San Jose on Saturday. ("60 Minutes")

Is there anybody out there with a link to the DC United.
When is the next televised game with Adu ??

[BethlehemFC]

Here's the DC United link. They are on Fox Sports World this weekend -- not sure when they are back on ESPN.

"Adu's debut with D.C. United was a sellout, attracted some 230 journalists and scored a 1.8 percent rating on ABC, 64 percent higher than last year's season kickoff and higher than the average NHL rating on the same network. A new ESPN poll indicates that 43 percent of those between ages 12 and 17 have an interest in the MLS, twice the level among Baby Boomers. And that higher number is mirrored by Hispanics, America's fastest-growing demographic. Right now the notion that soccer might overtake hockey may remain a stretch. But soccer has exactly the kind of fervent fans that the NHL has long boasted."
-- Mark Starr, Newsweek columnist, in an article headed, "Could soccer one day supplant the game as America's fourth sport?" (Newsweek)

So what's the deal Frank, when will he come to Europe to play?
