Ben Olsen: Sad But Studly On The Sidelines

You know an MLS game is a thriller when even we are compelled to find an illegal live feed of the action.
Although it’s not much of a consolation prize for a large and vocal pool of American soccer fans, but here’s a gratuitous shot of D.C. United’s youngish manager, Ben Olsen. While he was ruing his team’s postseason-ending loss last night, we were kicking ourselves for not discovering this cutie patootie sooner.
But there’s always next year, right DCU supporting Kickettes?


We love our Benny Olsen! And Kickette!
Hottie! *sight* keep posting we need to see more of him!
Just me, or does he resemble Cesc in the big pic?
I was at that game, with fantastic director's box level views of both the field and Benny. It was certainly enjoyable, except for that disallowed goal where I was ripping my hair out and Ben was jumping up and down running over and certainly saying some lovely things about the linesman.
come on kickette, get with the times! i sent this link to you a few months ago!

Ah wrong link on the second one. Here we go: http://voices.washingtonpost.com/dcsportsbog/2009…
Benny is the Pep of the MLS, and not just because the man can dress. But oh can he! Exhibit 1: http://www.dcunited.com/sites/default/files/image…
Also, technically, you did discover him already, way back in the day when you linked to this: http://www.dcunited.com/sites/default/files/image…
Still mourning the loss of our play-off dreams, but you're correct. There is always next year!
