Brad Freidel is a class act. Most fans appreciate his talent on the big save, his concentration during a game, all the hard work he’s done. And the respect he has earned from others in the football culture overseas.
This story on ESPNsoccernet.com takes the story of his gift back to the game to the current day. To the kids of Ohio, the USA, and indeed the developing world. I knew of this cool new academy he was building. I new it was to be free for the kids’ families. But reading the quotes brings it all the more personally revealing about the motivation behind the man.
Brad, thanks for it all.
