McBride Gets Armband


Brian McBride, always lauded as the consummate professional has been named captain of Fulham Football Club. The fact that McBride is 35 years old, playing for a new coach and hit a slump towards the end of last season, serves to underscore the respect his new coach and obviously his teammates have for him. His courage on the field has always been painfully (and I do mean painfully) obvious. But his work ethic and values off the field have always impressed me more.

"Put your head down and work as hard as you can because there is always someone better out there."

"Basically I say a few prayers before a game and let that direct me, not superstitions."

"It's not any one person. It's not any one coach. It's the team."
