Congratulations, Landon, for Winning the Soccer Blogger’s Player of the Week Award!

By: Laurie | April 24th, 2008

In case you weren’t paying attention earlier this week, Landon Donovan was named MLS Player of the Week by the North American Soccer Reporters. So congratulations, Landon!

But I think he deserves more.

In fact, I think North American Soccer Bloggers should start our own awards. Starting…now. And since there was no time to bring in other blogger-voters? As the current sole NASB representative, I hereby nominate and elect as our Player of the Week…

Landon Donovan!

Congratulations, Landon, on receiving yet another award this week. I couldn’t come up with a trophy on such short notice, but you can have your pick of flat size 3 soccer balls from my downstairs closet. And I’ll throw in a pair of old shinguards. Which I swear have been washed sometime in the last six months.

Imagine this ball on a lovely golden plastic trophy stand, Landon. Because you’re worth it.

No, don’t thank me. It is moments like this that I live for.

And no, the above photo is not my own black lab (who has a completely normal name, but who generally answers to Doofus.) But it might as well be.

  Oh, Laurie. This simply can’t be allowed to stand. I’ll have to check, but I don’t think god will allow it.

  Umm…Ronny? I’m not sure quite how to take that. Maybe I need an audio clip.
