Random trivia: The president of the Honduran Football Association, Rafael Callejas, is an MSU alumni (degree in Ag Econ). I saw the article below and remembered that was the same name as the guy who spoke at my MSU graduation in 1990. He was the Honduran President at the time - knew it had to be the same guy and it is. He's now moved on to a much more important job...

They did great research for that article. It said he played for the Minn. Thunder of the MLS. The Thunder have always been a USL club and don't even exist anymore. What do you expect from a South Mississippi newspaper talking about soccer, though?
