Any Steve-Nash-loves-to-bang-his-head-with-a-futbol news is old hat, so ho-hum to this report that he is organizing a charity soccer match with Claudio Reyna, Thierry Henry, over-the-hillers Robbie Fowler and Steve McManaman, and fellow NBA soccer-loving traitors geeks Bell and Barbosa. This however made my eye and jaw drop in simultaneous fashion:
Baron Davis, Jason Kidd and international soccer star Thierry Henry have committed to join Nash and longtime U.S. national team captain Claudio Reyna for a charity soccer match Wednesday night at Nike Field in Chinatown. The match is open to the public.Now Baron Davis is a real cool cat -- among the best point guards in the NBA, an entertaining film critic, and BFF of Jessica Alba. I never pegged him though as into the football, much less imagine him on the pitch. For that alone, this may be a game to see.
