My Take
Bob Bradley carries the air of an American soccer pioneer, and I respect him for it. A Princeton graduate from Montclair, New Jersey, he built his name the hard way, through the college ranks and nine demanding seasons in MLS with the Fire, MetroStars, and Chivas USA. What impresses me most is his refusal to stay comfortable. Coaching as far afield as Norway's Stabæk takes a hunger most managers never summon. Succeeding abroad, across unfamiliar languages and cultures, is brutally difficult, and his willingness to keep trying marks him as a true lifer. He's a craftsman who gave his life to the game.
