I'm so happy that he got another GG. He's a huge part of the club - the captain - I'm betting he'll get one for ever year he plays.
My thought too, CSB.
And I'm just as happy for him as you are, SC. He's so amazing out there that sometimes you forget how lucky you are to have a player like him in centerfield for your team.
