Brad Friedel Interview Kickster Football Goal 1

[Sweettoothe12]

Sounds like a light Irish accent. Strange, but cool.

[opsimathics]

thought he was from Newquay

[Pererra]

i dont think accent is the issue. that happens when people is adapting themselves to places. i think its more of a show of respect to the british. its not like hes mocking or something. :)

[Alexandrosimo]

agree with leonux1 

so what about his accent. Great goalkeeper.

[leonux1]

damn all you guys seem to be talking about is the accent

bet none of you paid attention to what he was saying

[NorthWeezy2010]

no such thing as a british accent ffs

[Sl4y3rNeb]

some definite Scottish/Northern English accent in there! :S especially on his r's

[cideboy100]

He sounds like a person from Netherlands,Germany or Austria who has been living in the US for a long time.

[1zv]

LMFAO, never heard an accent like it.

[ebelingb]

This dude has been away from home too long! His accent is crazy.

[ssskinz062382]

good goals there shit hot

[ListenEar]

I bought one about 6 months ago for my two sons, ages 5 and 7

They love it!

It's quick and easy to put up and take down.. so much so; you can go to the park for a 20 minute kick around and it is no major pain to take the goal, put it up, take it down.

It has improved both my son's shooting accuracy immensly!.

[jerseydevs2000]

I'd dare say Brad's accent is halfway between Lancaster, Pennsylvania and Lancaster, England: Still mostly Middle American (with a touch of German Amish) with a good dose of the NW of England thrown in.

[JUNAID187]

lol he has a funny accent

[sdbradley11]

I'm American and spent some significant time in Scotland as a kid. You can't help but pick up the accent. Same thing can happen here in the US. You move south at a young enough age and around it enough, you pick up the accent and the vocabulary. I agree, he sounded like he had more of a Scottish borgue going on though.

@sdbradley11

But accent acquisition is much more likely to happen if you live abroad when you're kid, much less likely as an adult.

Friedel grew up in Ohio and didn't go to England until his mid 20s. It really bizarre how much of the accent he picked up moving there that late in life.

[fiftysteps]

Goes to show you the English accent is certainly more attractive than the American one, I have a co-worker natively from England, but has been here for over than ten years, her accent is still there. It also depends on the person too, but in general, give me two years in England and I'm pretty sure my way of speaking will change dramatically.

[FAB12UCB]

he sounds english.

[Raffavelli10]

yeah i also noticed his accent. half american half english..

[misorange]

HAHAH WTF kind of accent is this? 1/3 American, 1/3 English, 1/3 Martian. HAHAHAHA too funny.

[wocmedia]

I have one of these goals, they the best ones by far. Very quick to set up and gre to use.

[McGovP]

it sounds scottish haha

[walshstu1]

@McGovP Evidently you've never heard a Scotsman speak then.

[KrazyKryz]

funny how he has a british accent
