FakeWynalda

Yes, it is true I have joined up with a 3rd division club in Sinola, Mexico. They are paying me a lot of money and I can still do my work on Fox Soccer. It's a win win. Where do they get the money you ask? I didn't ask. Don't think I should.

Afraid, what would I be afraid of. Yes, this is in a dangerous part of Mexico, and there have been kidnappings all across the region due to the drug war. Yes, I know about the Sinaloa drug cartel. I know this is no joke. But I'm willing to take that chance for the love of the game. Fear, that's not going to stop me. I want to give back to the game and if I have to go to Mexico to do it I will.

Again, who is the greatest American soccer player ever, me of course. And don't forget it. Oh yeah, Mom, I told you I'd be a President some day.

Mexican third tier side Murcielagos F.C. announced on its web site Monday that Wynalda has been named the club's President of International Development. According to Wynalda, a former U.S. international player, the gig will require him to serve as the team's de facto general manager, overseeing a playing staff of roughly 50 players, many of them teenagers.

"It's an arrangement that will be similar to [the U.S. U-17 national team setup in] Bradenton," said Wynalda over the phone. "It will just be south of the border, and we're going to pay them [the players] to be there.

"It's a great option for some of the talent in America to expedite their career. There's also a lot of talent in the region and we're constantly being scouted by the bigger clubs like Club American and Chivas de Guadalajara."
