During the Canadian off-season, he played and coached in the U.S. based German American Soccer League. In 1971, he became a player and head coach for the New York Cosmos.

He is a member of the National Soccer Hall of Fame. He spent his last years out of the public eye, suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and spending his last month in a full-care facility in Manassas, Va. Bradley grew up in Sunderland, England where he turned professional with the local Sunderland club at age sixteen. However, his career nearly ended just as it was beginning. During a training session, he shattered his right kneecap kicking a ball and it took over two years before he was fit to play again. In 1950, English conscription laws forced Bradley to choose between working in the government coal mines or entering the military when he turned nineteen. Bradley chose to work in the coal mines at Easington Colliery. In addition to working in the mine, Bradley continued to play football. While he began his career as a forward with Sunderland, the injury slowed Bradley and he moved into defense. Bradley signed with Bradford Park Avenue in 1955 then in 1957, he moved to Carlisle United where he eventually played 130 games, scoring 3 goals. In 1963, Bradley receive… More:

Excerpt: The Canadian Football League or CFL ( in French) is a professional sports league located in Canada. The CFL is the highest level of competition in Canadian football, a form of Gridiron football. Its eight teams, which are located in eight cities, are divided into two Conferences of four teams eachEast and West. The league’s 19-week regular season runs from late June to late November; each team plays 18 games with one bye week. Following the regular season, the six teams with the best records (regardless of Conference) compete in the league’s three-week playoffs, which culminate in the late-November Grey Cup championship, the country’s largest annual sports and television event. The CFL was officially founded in 1958. It is the highest level of play in Canadian football, the most popular football league in Canada, and the most popular major sports league in Canada after the National Hockey League. Although ice hockey is Canada’s most popular sport, the CFL has increased the popularity of Canadian football in Quebec and Western Canada. Canadian football is also played at amateur levels (i.e. youth, high school, CJFL, QJFL, CIS and senior leagues such as the Alberta Football League). In Southern Ontario, the CFL is recovering from the bankruptcy that plagued the Toronto and Hamilton teams in the 2003 season. Having come under new ownership, bo… More:

Excerpt: Appearances (Goals). National team caps and goals correct as of 24 May 2010Rob Friend (born 23 January 1981, in Rosetown, Saskatchewan) is a Canadian football forward who currently plays for Borussia Mönchengladbach in the Bundesliga. As a teenager Friend tried many sports at a high level including volleyball, tennis, hockey, rugby. At 17, Friend decided to concentrate on soccer. He sometimes wishes he concentrated on soccer earlier on and sees his development as still ongoing. “Others reach a certain level at an early age, but for me I am still developing today”, he says. “Therefore I’ll often work on things after practice. Things that I missed out on as a youth, to help me improve. Since I decided on soccer, I become better and better and always work harder to improve myself further”. Friend played college soccer at University of California, Santa Barbara. As a senior on the UCSB soccer team, Friend scored in 12 consecutive matches which ranks 4th in NCAA history. After he graduated, Friend was drafted in the 4th Round, 35th Overall, of the 2003 MLS SuperDraft by the Chicago Fire. Instead of playing for the Fire, he decided to play in Norway. Together with fellow countryman Patrice Bernier, he was signed by Moss F.K.. In the middle of 2004, he was signed by Molde F.K. where he played 6 matches and scored 2 goals. Before the expiration of his contract with Molde F.K., and after he helped Molde F.K. win the Norwegian Men’s Football Cup, he was transferred to SC Heerenveen on a 4 year contract. After making 19 appearances with Heerenveen and scoring 5 goals, he was loaned t… More:

Rugby Union: Canadian Interuniversity Sport, Positionen Im Rugby Union, Grand Slam, Invictus – Unbezwungen, Irb-Weltrangliste $14.14 Kapitel: Canadian Interuniversity Sport, Positionen Im Rugby Union, Grand Slam, Invictus – Unbezwungen, Irb-Weltrangliste, International Rugby Hall of Fame, Irb Hall of Fame. Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: Rugby union is a full contact team sport, a form of football which originated in England in the early 19th century. One of the codes of rugby football, it is based on running with the ball in hand. It is played with an oval-shaped ball, outdoors on a level field, usually with a grass surface, up to 100 metres (330 ft) long and 70 metres (230 ft) wide. On each goal line are H-shaped goal posts. William Webb Ellis is often credited with the invention of running with the ball in hand in 1823 at Rugby School when he allegedly caught the ball while playing football and ran towards the opposition goal. Although the evidence to support the Ellis story is doubtful, it was immortalised at the school with a plaque unveiled in 1895. In 1848, the first rules were written by pupils; other significant events in the early development of rugby include the Blackheath Club’s decision to leave the Football Association in 1863 and the split between rugby union and rugby league in 1895. The International Rugby Board (IRB) has been the governing body for rugby union since its formation in 1886. Currently, 115 national unions are members of the IRB. In 1995, the IRB removed restrictions on payments to players, making the game openly professional at the highest level for the first time. The Rugby World Cup, first held in 1987, takes place every four years, with the winner of the tournament receiving the Webb Ellis Cup. The Six Nations in Europe and the Tri Nations in the southern hemisphere are major international competitions held annually. Major domestic competitions include the Top 14 in France, the Guinness Premiership in England, the Currie Cup in South Africa, and the ITM Cup in New Zealand. Other transnational competitions

Chapters: Samoan Professional Wrestlers, Dwayne Johnson, Samoa Joe, Solofa Fatu, Eddie Fatu, Rodney Anoa’i, Matt Anoa’i, Samula Anoa’i, Afa Anoa’i, Sika Anoa’i, Sonny Siaki, Anoa’i Family, Sam Fatu, Peter Maivia, Cocoa Samoa, Lloyd Anoa’i, Reno Anoa’i, Peter Maivia, Jr.. Excerpt: Dwayne Johnson (born May 2, 1972) is an American actor, and former professional wrestler also known by his former ring name The Rock and occasionally credited as Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Johnson was a collegiate football player, and in 1991, he was part of the University of Miami’s national championship team. He later played for the Calgary Stampeders in the Canadian Football League, but was cut two months into the season. This led to his decision to become a professional wrestler, like his grandfather, Peter Maivia and his father Rocky Johnson. He gained mainstream fame as a wrestler in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), originally known as the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), from 1996 to 2004, and was the first third-generation superstar in that wrestling company’s history. Johnson was quickly given a push in WWE, first as “Rocky Maivia”, and then as “The Rock”, a member of the Nation of Domination. Two years after he joined the WWF, Johnson won the WWF Championship, and became one of the most popular wrestlers within the company for his engaging interviews and promos. In 2001, he began acting and occasionally returned to the ring. His primary focus, as of 2010, is his acting career. In WWE, Johnson was a nine-time world champion, having won the WWF/E Championship seven times (with his last reign being as the WWE Undisputed Champion) and the WCW/World Championship two times. In addition to these championships, Johnson has also won the WWF Intercontinental Championship… More:

Chapters: Los Angeles Rams, Baltimore Stallions, Dinamo Riga, Sacramento Gold Miners, Memphis Mad Dogs, Fortitude Valley Diehards, Birmingham Barracudas, Shreveport Pirates, San Antonio Texans, Arizona League Brewers, Auburn Astros, Chicago Cheetahs, Los Angeles Raiders. Excerpt: The Baltimore Stallions were a Canadian football team based in Baltimore, Maryland, which played the 1994 and 1995 seasons. They were the most successful American team in the Canadian Football League having two winning seasons, a division title and became the only American team to win the Grey Cup in 1995. Owner Jim Speros’ approach was simple: he knew that Canadian football was different from the American game, and therefore made a point of hiring personnel and players with CFL experience. Speros made Jim Popp general manager of the new team, and named the legendary Don Matthews as head coach. Popp and Matthews, in turn, brought in experienced players like QB Tracy Ham, RB Mike Pringle, LB O. J. Brigance, DT Jerald Bayliss, DE Elfrid Payton and former National Football League veteran K Donald Igwebuike. However, the franchise quickly ran into trouble, becoming known as the “team without a name.” Speros had started calling his new franchise the Baltimore CFL Colts and the NFL sued because of possible public confusion with their Indianapolis Colts, who had played in Baltimore from 1953 until 1984. The NFL won an injunction because the CFL version of the Baltimore Colts didn’t want to go bankrupt fighting it, and the franchise became known as the Baltimore Football Club (Baltimore F.C.), sometimes called the Baltimore CFLers. The team’s fan base resisted the change; for most of the ’94 season, the public address announcer at Memorial Stadium, Jack Taylor, would announce the tea… More:

Chapters: Trinidad and Tobago at the 2006 Fifa World Cup, Trinidad and Tobago National Football Team Cup Results, Soca Warriors Supporters Club. Excerpt: The Trinidad and Tobago national football team, nicknamed The Soca Warriors, is the national team of Trinidad and Tobago and is controlled by the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation. It reached the first round of the 2006 FIFA World Cup Finals. The country currently holds the record of being the smallest nation to ever qualify for a World Cup Final. The separate Trinidad and Tobago football teams are not related to the national team and are not directly affiliated with the game’s governing bodies of FIFA or CONCACAF but are affiliated with the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation. At the 1973 CONCACAF Championship, Trinidad and Tobago fell two points short of qualifying for the 1974 World Cup Finals in controversial fashion. Trinidad and Tobago lost a crucial game on December 4, 1973 against hosts Haiti 21 having five of Nikolai G’s goals disallowed. The referee, Kevon Chandler of El Salvador and a Canadian linesman James Higuet were subsequently banned for life by FIFA for the dubious events of the match. Trinidad and Tobago came within one game of qualifying for the 1990 FIFA World Cup in Italy. Dubbed the Strike Squad during the qualifying campaign, Trinidad and Tobago needed only a draw to qualify in their final game played at home against the United States on November 19, 1989. In front of an over-capacity crowd of over 30,000 at the National Stadium on Red Day, Paul Caligiuri of the United States scored the only goal of the game in the 38th minute dashing Trinidad and Tobago’s qualification hopes. For the good behaviour of the crowd at the stadium, despite the devastating loss and overc… More:
