What a great idea. I still remember that fantastic season. It seemed like all the teams that could have defeated the Roughnecks in the playoffs, were beaten by teams the Roughnecks had a better chance of defeating.
I also remember how disappointed I was with the response in Tulsa from the general public about winning the Soccer Bowl.
It was the equivalent of the The Super Bowl, World Series, NBA Championship or The Stanley Cup to me. But most all of Tulsa did not see it that way.
How fantastic would it have been if they could have had the same response the Oklahoma City Thunder are enjoying with all their success?
Hey Ruf. Check this out. I may have to get this if you don't.

I think I donated my white Dr Pepper bottle to Boomtown Tees a few years back... TU coach Mac got his 200th win Friday night against Ohio State... http://www.tulsahurricane.com/sports/m-soccer/recaps/090713aaa.html
You can look at it as a glass "half-empty" or a glass "half-full," but Tulsa's amateur NPSL team playing at the old ballpark is basically a mixture of talented ex-college/ex-pro players and an all-star team from Oklahoma's only NCAA D-1 men's soccer programs at TU and ORU, as well as NCAA D-2 players from Rogers State and Northeastern State.

This guy's coming back to Tulsa next month... as is Iraj Danaifard, Winston DuBose... more to come...
I always enjoyed going to Caskos at Fontana mall after the games. Drinking and having a great time with most of the players. They were a very fun bunch of guys.
