As many expected it would after the conclusion of the three-match post-World Cup series between the U.S. and Mexico, the ax fell Monday on Women’s National Team Coach Greg Ryan.
On a personal and professional level, I enjoyed dealing with the soft-spoken Ryan.
He was always accommodating and happy to give reporters the time they needed.
That was the case again Monday when Ryan returned my phone calls so I could include comments from him in today’s column, while Torrance’s Shannon Boxx also took the time to give her reaction. Read it here.
And Daily Breeze columnist John Bogert received a flood of e-mails from readers happy to see him call out a boorish AYSO parent in his column last week.
Here’s the reader reaction.
Finally this morning, after the Galaxy season ended Sunday, the team wasted no time in rescheduling exhibition games in Vancouver, B.C. Nov. 7 and Minneapolis Nov. 11.
That’s two games in five days for Beck’s. Hope the ankle holds up.
