Don Garber: Ran NFL Europe back in the day

You do have to give Garber credit for the 15 years he has been MLS commissioner. He has taken it from teetering on the edge of disaster to a fairly successful league, soon to be at 24 teams.

Well spare me from these glory chasing northerns who wring bullshit righteousness out of the corpses of hundreds of thousands of Irish conscripts who were marched off to a near certain death.
