Paul Gardner described “sexy soccer” as:

“Sexy soccer is emotional soccer, for sure, soccer that excites. It’s attacking soccer, goal-scoring soccer. It’s soccer that quickens the pulse and heats the blood, it’s cheerful soccer, it’s the sport played with a smile.”

That is my style of futbol! If a NYC FC is going to take the Big Apple by storm, we need to make this our brand of soccer. Sexy soccer would be an extension of the New York attitude on the pitch. Maybe a sneak preview is in order…


Two more things:
1. I have a huge man-crush on Ronaldinho… not that there is anything wrong with that.
2. Hip hop, samba, and other musical genres with good beats are the soul of soccer. Stop making YouTube videos with crappy songs.
