top 10 American footballers on facebook

I don't know how we all got through life, minding their own business, before facebook came around. People apparently managed, but I'm glad I'm not a part of that time. So I'm going to go ahead a steal a page from epltalk and list my top ten American soccer players. It was going to be a list of only MLS player, but pretty much every MLS players under 24 has a page and I didn't really feel like going through all of those. :)

The pages are valid as most of them passed the "are they friends with Sacha" test. If you're not friends with Sacha you may be one of the few in this world.

BTW, you have to be logged in to see the search results. Don't have a facebook? Get out of my face with that crazy talk!

1. Jozy Altidore - This is like major proof of how non-celebrity soccer players are. How many athletes who are on the cover of a major video game have a regular ol facebook page?
2. Freddy Adu - Good thing he has this or else we all might have thought he had fallen off the face of the planet.
3. Michael Bradley - Baby Brads making an appearance with a U of I network. Who would have thought? I didn't even think homeboy finished high school.
4. Sacha Kljestan - Mr. Popularity of the U-23 set.
5. Benny Feilhaber - If he doesn't make major career changes over the summer he will fall off this list. Just like Bob, if you're not getting major time with your club you're dunzo!
6. Steve Cherundolo - Cherundolo is kind of one of those guys who are just there. But he did go to a World Cup so he does deserve to be on this list.
7. Maurice Edu - Don't even TRY friending our boy Mo here. Facebook won't let you. It says "this user has too many friends". I tried... twice. Hey facebook, don't hate on the Rookie of the Year. Mo should be a bit higher on the list only because he broke facebook.
8. Heath Pearce - Creepiest picture EVER!
9. Chris Rolfe - I had to represent with the Chicago Fire love.
10. Jonathan Bornstein - Jonny B is quality. He even went to one of his facebook groups and was like "holla Jonny B in the house". That's precious!

Those are just some personal faves of mine. Feel free to spend an afternoon at work stalking discovering some pages of your own. I couldn't imagine having all the random friends they do. Can you imagine all the stupid application request they receive? I have one person on my friends list who is constantly sending me that crap and it drives me crazy getting those e-mails on the blackberry all day long. Unless it's an application that will get me a date with Carlos, I pass!

I'd like to add Esky to the list because now that he's in Germany or wherever getting injections, his roomate sends him wall posts that she's sad no-one is around to watch The Hills with her anymore.
