A Toast to Columbus Legends departing

* A Captain, not only of the team but of the fans, who inspired the Telegraph to write: Why can't Terry be like that?



* One of few players who could make Brian McBride the second greatest ever to play for Columbus



* And a guy most of you never heard of, the longest tenured Crew player; he loved the team and Columbus such that he hung around through thick and thin, taking a cut to league minimum and missing out on NZ's WC run when it's pretty sure he would have been on their roster if he'd gone to A-League.  Yes, he was at least as good as Simon Elliot

Duncan 'Beaker' Oughton

Must admit I have no clue about this chap, but I do very much respect the mans loyalty and attitude.

In this day and age you don't get much of that anymore.

Maybe some kids will learn from him but I doubt it. The agents will make sure of that.
If you wake up in the morning and nothing hurts, you are most likely dead

Frankie Hejduk was a man of modest talent (he couldn't cross to save his life) but had a heart as big as all out doors. No one and I mean no one could out motor him. He was as fast in the 90th. minute as he was in the first. He has the courage the equal of a certain McGod. A typical American football player. You might beat him but he'd never quite. Gotta love the guy.
Its not that I could and others couldn't.
Its that I did and others didn't.

It will be interesting to see where Schelotto will end up if he doesnt retire, hopefully he stays stateside, players like him are a big help to the league
Some people are literally too stupid to insult

+1.  Tremendous respect for both players.   MLS has indeed been very lucky to Schelotto.  :wine:

Gije's corners and free kicks were things of beauty.
