soccer is better than football anyways.

[LiquidYogi]

Whether or not he makes the team, he's a classy pro in any sport. Goodluck to you Chad.

always thought he was cockey but he wasnt at all in this interview

[ampiet3]

He is a world class athlete. All of you thinking you deserve a tryout just because he got one make no sense what so ever. The guy is a specimen. They get opportunities like this.

@IncredibleStan

everything you stated doesnt nullify that IT IS A PUBLICITY STUNT. there are plenty of fans such as he that are far better than him who dont get the chance like he is getting. him being friends with soccer stars makes him nothing special because regular fans would be their friends too if they could ever get close to them. PASSION is not a factor here. yes it does bring light to the league IN THE U.S. but its the WORLD'S largest sport anyway. so yeah... he needs to stay at home.

@blkhawk13

well call it a publicity stunt if you like but anyone who is a fan of ochocinco knows that soccer is a HUGE part of his life. He travels a lot to watch soccer matches and to hang out with messi and ronaldo who are personal friends of his. he is a fan of mexican and american national soccer teams as well..so its no surprise to me that he would try to play something he is TRUELLY passionate about. Also it will bring alot of attention to the league as well which is also a plus

[dtruth20091]

Let me tryout

[blkhawk13]

the only reason he has this chance is because he's famous. this is ridiculous. publicity stunt. i used to have respect for him but no more. just because his football team sucked and they got a lockout doesnt mean you can play another sport. especially soccer. soccer is one of the most if not the most technical skilled sport.

says alot about the MLS if this guy have a chance to get on a professional team....

[mrbaseballman3456]

i cant get over that i im pretty sure WE had the name Futbol before football had it. ours makes more sense anyways. i play soccer not baseball. sorry if you're confused.

I think he could be a great goalie. He should try it. He has good hands and quick reflexes.
