In 2005 I met on Soldier Field a young star that would inspire and reset the attitude and persona of US soccer. Here’s to a brilliant career, bringing to life a warrior & creative spirit, doing it with pure class. Absolute respect and gratitude @clint_dempsey #DontTread #DTOM

In five-billion years, as the Sun begins to die, its outer layers of glowing plasma will expand stupendously, engulfing the orbits of Mercury, then Venus, as the charred ember that was once the oasis of life called Earth vaporizes into the vacuum of space.
