I feel kinda bad for Ballack, he being 31 and not winning a championship for Germany. In fact, you would say that he had a great year reaching the finals for his country, and his club team Chelsea. But, he came up short on both accounts.I remember my club football years playing left back for three time Champion, Gunnners, in the Pointe Michel league. What a power house we were, and what memories we left in pointe Michel. Most memorably, what a leader we had in our captain, Brian Toussaint. A man that thought many on and off the field. It was because of people like him young men, at the time, had the courage to play hard against older players. Thanks Brian....Rest In Peace.
