Re: [nas] Good Narrative History of US Soccer.... Anything?

    I guess I'll take this opportunity to, once again, plug the book I 
wrote on the 2002 World Cup, 23 Days in Korea:  An American at the World 
Cup.  It tells the story of the US' stunning run through a fans eyes.  It 
was my goal to allow those who were there to relive those great times and 
for those who did not make the trip, to give them the experience to make 
them feel as if they had gone.
    I know many on this board have read it, a few even star in it!  Check 
it out and read a small sample here:

    If any who have read it care to comment, I would appreciate it, though 
I know I have heard from many.  I hope you all enjoyed it.
