Hey guys!

I Hope everyone enjoyed the semi-finals of the world cup. Me and Gen were rooting for Germany but they came up a bit short against Spain. Spain vs Holland should be a good final! We have continued our two training per day schedule. Here are some pictures from the training today Thursday July 8th! Enjoy

Hey guys!

We played our second friendly of the preseason on Saturday afternoon July 3rd. Our team was split into 2 different squads of 11. My squad played against Warta Poznan and we tied 0-0. The second squad played Cracovia and tied 0-0 as well. It was noticeable that all the teams were tired from the hard work everyone has been putting in during the preseason. We have today free so me and Gen and Pickles are thinking about hitting the lake in Szczecin and doing some swimming. I am excited!

Happy 4th of July! Don't Drink and Drive!!!

Fun in the sun is over! Back to work!

Today was our first day back from 3 weeks off. We had training midday and it was hot! Pogon has some new faces. 3 new players have signed and 3 Serbia players are on trial. I hope we keep some of the Serbians so we have some other foreigners in the squad. The training was light. We did 20 min of running. 5 v 2 keep away. Then played 2 teams to 3 goals. Finished with some stretching and that was that.

The president spoke to us about concentrating from the start. There are lots of expectations for the team. We are picked to win the league and get promoted! Today was the first day in the right direction towards promotion.

I will keep you updated through our month of preseason before the season starts first week of August!

Later dudes!

U S and A, greatest country in the world!!!!!

GO USA!

BONJOUR FROM ANNECY, FRANCE

So, whats up guys? Well, Ive been basically driving all over Europe and it's been pretty cool. Lots of beautiful sceneries, pickles alomost dying (kidding) mostly getting car sick. We stopped in Hannover, GER, and met my new agent. Had a great dinner with him and his partner (who has a player from LIVERPOOL). Pretty good stuff. Then headed over to Beligum to visit some family and drink a ton of delicious and yet deadly beer. Now we're in the South of France, hanging out with more family and watching the World Cup! Nice Job USA!!!!!!!

Hope everyone is having a good summer so far.

First half we scored, and then the second half Dolcan scored on us at the 75 th minute. Decent game, getting ready for Tuesdays match against KSZO Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski. Looking foward to it, and then we head home!

Hope everyone had an awesome weekend.

POGON FANS

Hey guys!

Welcome to my blog!!

I'am really excited to share my experiences and dreams with you.

To start off, as some of you may know I'am currently playing in Poland for a team in the 1st division, Pogoń Szczecin. I signed in January 2010, the contract will continue until 2012.

This season has been an incredible experience, let me tell you. Ups and downs of course but I find that I've improved my game and my fitness a lot. It has been difficult with the language barrier but each day I'am learning a little more and keeping my eyes set on positive things.

My goal for this year is to get drafted to a team in Germany, hopefully the 1st division in the Bundesliga. Keeping my focus on this goal, and for Pogoń to make it to ExtraClassic Liga this year.

Pogoń Szczecin was a part of the Polish Cup Remes this year and we made it to the finals!! What a game it was. We ended up getting silver medal which was a bit of a bummer but it was nice to be able to be a part of it and gain more experience. I will post some pictures from this game and you can see the crazy fans from both sides!!

Right now, we are on the road for a week, 4 games in less than 2 weeks. Got to keep my focus!!

Till next time, toodles
