I recently got an e-mail from a sportswriter in Sweden asking if I’d be willing to do an interview on the U.S. college game and the MLS SuperDraft for SvenskaFans.com, the country’s biggest sports web. I was flattered. I know people read my stories, but things like this really put it into perspective.
We did the interview via e-mail, and the piece ran a few days before the draft.
It’s one of those experiences where you just have to trust the reporter because I am guessing “collegefotbollsskribent” means college soccer writer, but that’s about where my grasp of the Swedish language ends.
