Ever wonder why the Netherlands sports team rocks orange? It's all thanks to The House of Orange! This color became a symbol of national identity. Fascinating origin story!

Wylam played Pratt City in a Thanksgiving Day tilt in Birmingham, Alabama on Nov. 28, 1918, winning 1-0. The match marked a return of soccer in the city after a wartime hiatus & organizers collected donations to benefit the local chapter of the Red Cross.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Glad to help out with this & see #Atlanta make the starting XI. A hurculean effort by Kirk & Tom who did a great job tracing the metro area’s #soccerhistory & those of other important “soccertowns” across the U.S. (although Tom gets a yellow for the use of “Hotlanta”). Definitely give it a listen!

⚽ 40 years ago, I watched Hotshot film at Giants Stadium with Gregory Beecroft (Guiding Light) & Billy Warlock (Capitol). The story: an American soccer player turns to Pelé for guidance. My dad was a huge Pelé fan — I was even a Cosmos ball boy at 13!
