Jorge Flores living the dream post
I hope US Soccer can find, and cap, more players like Jorge Flores, although there\'s a lot of debate about how many undiscovered, diamonds-in-the-rough like him are out there. Still, if MLS and US Soccer can give opportunites to players like him, we could add some much needed Latin-flair to the game here. OK, I\'m done channeling Paul Gardner now.\ \ From TV to M.L.S., One Mexican Teen's Soccer Dream - NYTimes.com\
A lot more people are coming to know Flores, an 18-year-old, left-footed midfielder who had scored three goals in three games for Chivas before Thursday night's 1-0 loss against the Red Bulls in East Rutherford, N.J. The most recent goal --- a left-footed volley he ripped into the side netting against Columbus --- was the type of dead-perfect shot any player dreams about hitting.
