Steve Nash Showdown in New York

On June 25th 2009, a cast of pro athlethes took to Nike Field in Sara D. Roosevelt Park in New York to take place in the Steve Nash Celebrity soccer game. This was the 2nd year for the event to take place. It is super cool as it brings together soccer players, basketball players, movie stars and a host of celebrities in a soccer game that is free for the public to watch. Among those that participated this year were Baron Davis, Jason Kidd, Raja Bell, Leandro Barbosa, Joakim Noah, Thierry Henry, Claudio Reyna, Robbie Fowler, Steve McManaman, Jozy Altidore, Juan Pablo Angel, and Gregg Berhalter. What a great line up! And here is a sweet video that puts together the day, well worth watching!
