Time for Tom Judge to step under the player focus spotlight. Tom's first season with Madison was blighted with injury and he rarely made it onto to the field. However a fit and lean TJ started the new season in fine fettle and has made a great start to his "new" team. Two goals in his first two games was a great welcome back. So what is there to know about TJ? Read on....First time you played soccer?
Played Gaelic Football from the time I was a kid until my mid-twenties, got to travel to Ireland with an American team from NYC. First played soccer in 7 th Grade (13), moved from NYC to Long Island.

Favorite Team?
Talk about leagues first. Best league in the world, far and away is the English league, followed by the Italian League, the Spanish League is a distant third, may not even be as good as the German league any more. Favorite team used to be Man U before they purchased the world, more recently Chelsea, now they have purchased the world, so I will have to find a new favorite team. I hardly seams fair like a fair game with all of the talent these teams buy. ( Excuse me but i think you may have left the best team in the world off your list....hint...they play in green and white hoops? )
Fav Player?
Best player in the world, hands down is Kaka. Favorite players are Michael Essien (his play has fallen off the last year) and I hate to say it but, Cristiano Ronaldo ( What about Fribeka?? )
Fav Music?
Once again, sad to say but, Country music (YEEE Ha! )
Fav Movie?
Go for the war movies, Braveheart, Gladiator, Glory in that order ( Escape to Victory??? )
Best moment on a soccer field?
Scored 3 goals in an indoor game last winter. ( And 2 goals already in the outdoor season!)
Nickname at school?
TJ ( makes a lot of sense, not hugely original, but accurate....)
Motto for life?
20% of people in the world are assholes, so just expect 1/5 of the people you meet to be an asshole. ( So that's about 4 people in our squad....hhmm wonder who they are? )
Something we don't know about you?
I have coached youth soccer for 11 years.

Thanks TJ... You country music loving, war movie watching, Irish footballing, confused Chelsea fan......
Country music? La Liga only 3rd, possibly 4th, best league in the world? WTF?!?! This TJ guy is deeply delusional....this explains many things.....
ReplyDeleteLa Liga is a good rival to the English league.....i think much better than the Italian one.....TJ must have been hit on the head playing all that Gaelic football...to be sure, to be sure
ReplyDeletewow...this player focus really got everyone talking....not... i'll have to spice them up a bit more.....
ReplyDeleteCeltic's season all comes down to one game tomorrow. They are 2 points behind Rangers going into the last game. Rangers play Dundee United in Dundee and Celtic have a home game against Hearts. Bottom line....Celtic have to beat Hearts and hope Rangers do anything but win against Dundee United. Rangers do not have a great record against United away from home so there is some hope they will falter at the last hurdle. But it will be nerve racking, nail biting stuff tomorrow. Kick off is at 8am tomorrow morning EST and i will be watching it on the internet, through my fingers, from a remote cabin in Pennsylvania.....if we lose i may not come back......
ReplyDeleteoh well.....it was not to be. Celtic drew 0 0 at home and Rangers beat Dundee Utd 3-0 away from home to win the league. I guess they deserved to win beacuse they did....but it was a poor, inconsistent performance by Celtic throughout the year that cost them the title. I think Rangers are a poor team but that doesn't change the facts....they are the Champions and Celtic have to focus on how to win it back next year. A few new faces are needed, especially some strikers that are fast!
ReplyDeleteSo, it's now up to Madison Celtic to keep the pride of the Celts going forward this season!
