“ Long sleeved shirts and short shorts-that's quite a fashion statement. ” -BigDaddy

“ Bought a bunch of these way back when. The fact that his socks are down around his ankles makes me chuckle as that is how my socks ended up when I was playing. I wish Pacific had made these sets when Pittsburgh Spirit were still in the league. ” -Gunny

Ha! The Home Team...Wichita Wings and you can see Chico Bora running with his back turned.  What fun these were back in the day and sad to say, the only time where I enjoyed Soccer.

This league was tough on goalies and defenders. The goal was set into the boards and glass, so when players on the attacking team would blast shots at the net, anything that went wide would ricochet and come right back out in front of the goal. Fun to watch, though.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

The MISL wasn't great. Things have come a long way with the MLS - not just with the football but with the cards too. Mike certainly wasn't a fox in the box, not a fantastic mr fox either.
