Our New Home Refinancing Plan is Pegged to Troy Perkins GAA + 3 points.

When I linked to the MLS Salary listings provided by Steve Goff, a commenter asked "What do the players do if they are only making 11K a year?" Well, SoccerAmerica catches up with Troy Perkins at the office. And, since I am thinking about buying a home someday, I just want to tell Troy that if you ignore 1998-2001, I'll ignore that muffed save against the Red Bulls. Deal?

Over at the Screaming Eagles Podcast, Episode 10 features Part One of an interview with Ben Olsen. Asked about giving up soccer to become a stockbroker after his injury while at Forest, Ben Olsen replies that he didn't want to be a stockbroker, but was willing to do catering for Tony Meola's mortgage company. There's a steady source of income.

Hm. Wouldn't that be a great ad, with a despondant Tony Meola wandering around... "Curses! Lost another loan to TroyTech.Com!"
