Portland Timbers taking over the world one island nation at a time
By: Bob Kellett | April 19th, 2008
You know who is Rose City ‘Til I Die? The good people of the Solomon Islands.
How monumental is this achievement? Considering the fact that Benjamin Totori can be plucked from the obscurity is like the movie ‘Goal’ played out in real life. Little is know about Portland Timbers in the Solomon Islands; let alone US Soccer. But with Totori in the Timber’s lineup, you can be sure that there will be a major following here in Honiara.
We’re coming after you next, Cook Islands.
A special shout out goes to our friends in Japan too. I have received a couple of emails from people in Japan who tell me they are very closely following the Timbers now that Takayuki Suzuki (he’s interviewed in Friday’s Trib) has joined the good side. One of them is even coming to Portland for the Rochester game. That is dedication, my friends. The love is spreading…
