Location: Florissant, MO
Established: 1998
Home pitch (name): St. Jacques Park

Best SLSL (regular season) finish: 2nd in 2002-2003
Subbuteo Titles (to your name): 2004 SLSL Open
Tournament Champion
Why do you play Subbuteo: I love the sport of
soccer. When I was a child there was a show called "Soccer
Made in Germany". Between segments, the hosts would use a
“toy" diagram to recreate plays. SUBBUTEO was that
toy. When I turned 12 I saw it in the SEARS catalog. My parents
bought it for me for $19.99. I still have the receipt.
Most difficult opponent: There have been a lot
of difficult opponents (just look back at all my 2nd place finishes
in tournaments) But the most competitive would have to be Mike
Keller. Jeff Drake is not too far behind.
Most memorable match: It would have to be the
FISTF IO 2006. I beat Mike Benkart in a shootout only after he
scored on a handball goal or what would have been a PK anyway
with 10 seconds remaining.
Favorite Soccer Teams: I do not really have a
favorite club. But if St. Louis gets one that might be mine.
Occupation: TRUE MFG Company. You see our products
umm.....everywhere. Every time you grab for a beer or soda at
Wal-Mart, QT, K-Mart or at a bar. TRUE is probably the manufacturer
of the cooler you take it from.
Favorite movies: The Shawshank Redemption
Favorite TV shows: Sports. No sitcoms at all.
Favorite beverage: Mountain Dew and beer
Favorite musical groups or performers: U2 is
the best.
Favorite songs: No real favorite songs. Big 80's
fan though.
