We Have a (Future) Kyle Martino Sighting!

By: Laurie | September 27th, 2008

Wanna talk about Thursday’s game?

Yeah, me neither.

So instead, I’d like to say that anybody who’s in New York on Oct 2 can stop by and see former Galaxy guy Kyle Martino playing in a fundraiser game for a

Green’-Carpet Event and Live Auction to Benefit Nonprofit Grassroot Soccer and its Mission to End HIV/AIDS Using the ‘Power of Soccer’

Other players will include:

WHO: Michael Strahan (frmr NY Giants) ** Anthony LaPaglia (“Without a Trace”) ** Brandon Routh (“Superman”) ** Jimmy Jean-Louis (“Heroes”) ** Gilles Marini (“Sex and the City”) ** Annie Churchill ** Skeet Ulrich (“Jericho”) ** Donal Logue (“The Tao of Steve”) ** Costas Mandylor (“Saw”) ** Richard Gough (frmr Scotland National Team) ** Frank LeBoeuf (frmr France National Team) ** Kyle Martino (frmr LA Galaxy) ** Lydia Hearst ** Brian Dunseth (FOX analyst) ** Ethan Zohn (Survivor: Africa) ** Heather O’Reilly (Gold-Medalist, 2008 Olympiad; U.S. Women’s National Team) ** Marcelo Balboa (frmr captain, U.S. Men’s National Team; Hall-of-Famer) ** Tony Meola (frmr U.S. Men’s National Team) ** ** Gillian Hearst Simonds ** Steve Jolley (frmr NY Red Bulls; FC Dallas) ** Shep Messing (NY Cosmos) ** Leslie Osborne (U.S. Women’s National Team)

Yeah, that Shep Messing.

I know most of you don’t share my Martino fandom, but the way Kyle was dumped by the Galaxy still causes me great pain in my maternal area, and I want to hear about good things for him. From what I hear, he did an awesome job commentating on MLS games during the Olympics, so that’s something. (Is he still doing that?)

So my point here is, if you’re in NYC this week, be sure to stop by and help them kick AIDS. And while you’re at it, tell Kyle that LA Galaxy Offside says Hi.

I ***LOVE*** Skeet Ulrich! Someone please take lots of photos of him. I've never seen him in shorts and he has sexy legs.

Hmmm, that question brings up all kinds of interesting questions Melissa. Like when they say a player has incredible stamina. Makes it worth reading the sports pages.

I guess you can strain your groin while dancing. Best luck to all the players in getting through the evening uninjured

Is that what they meant by the ‘Power of Soccer’?
Diane

Come on out Laurie! I've never been to Marquee (they probably stay open past 10pm after all) but I bet we could figure out a way to get you in to Kyle...keep me informed.

Did you see Henry score for Barcelona today? Great things are still happening in the world!
Laurie

Damn, Diane, spoil my fun. :-)

Hang on, that's a night club, without grass (even plastic grass). I think the fundraiser is an event sans-match. I guess you can strain your groin while dancing. Best luck to all the players in getting through the evening uninjured ;-) .

Leslie Osborne is playing! Woo Hoo! She is totally gonna kick everyone's asses just cause I said so. Oh and I hope Kyle doesn't strain his groin during this charity game. That would suck, but still bring back fond memories. You could perhaps argue that he got out while the gettin' was still good.
