Just got the YA email. Great news. I guess everyone else knows as 18 people are on the the site is really lagging. haha. Congrats Clint!

 

MLS confrims the deal, interesting that Fulham has yet to.

looks like the bbc has confirmed it as well

 

Rumour on TFI, I think Mike stated it as well, is they are waiting til tomorrow to announce both the Dempsey and Gooch signings together.

 

Sky Sports says it's official too: http://home.skysports.com/transferartic ... lid=440763

Great signing by Coleman, I think Dempsey will help take Fulham to the next level. Both in result and in "rapability."

 

"Rapability" may hit rock bottom if he picks up an accent lol

 

I really dont know which facet I should be more excited about: the signing and ramifications on the pitch, or the fact that Fulham has an actual rapper on the team. I'm sure everyone has seen it, but just for good measure be sure to check out his music video on youtube: http://youtube.com/watch?v=-BV9nz99nRg

In all honesty it ranks up, to name a few, with Journey's "Seperate Ways," any Boyz II Men vid, and Duran Duran's "The Wild Boys" on the Unintentional Comedy Scale; and thats just for music videos. I gotta see it a few more times to see how it ranks in the "Overall" category.

Nevertheless I'm really excited about his and the team's future. Perhaps he'll also do an album with the Streets, no?

 

YES!!! Welcome Deuce! I'm very glad the work permit was granted. Can't wait for his first goal and the hip hip groove to follow!

 

Rappers are a rare breed in the PL. John Barnes and his teammates' "Anfield Rap" is the benchmark by which all other footballers must embarress themselves.

From dstriker on TFI, I had to post it:

 

That is great!!! Thanks for posting it Mike.

 

It appears that Dempsey will wear No. 23, for what it's worth.

He's finally been added to the player profiles section of the FFC site.

 

His jersey is also for sale at YanksAbroad now.
