Van Dyk is topnotch pro, get on the pitch, play like a pro, step off the pitch, be a gentleman to the press and go home. And he left his first pro club in The Netherlands (Groningen) for Southampton at a very young age and did not have to adjust in any way.
Hmmm football and hockey I don't really have a team. I could root for the Bruins and Patriots as I allready root for the Red Sox but I have a feeling thats more seen as a felony than rooting for other teams haha. I somehow also kind of like Seattle as a sportscity, I love the whole 12th man mantra at the Seahawks, Mariners failing since they exist with great players (Griffey Jr, Johnson, Ichiro) and the Kraken you just can't like them with that name.
