Wow, could immediately pick his kid out of the team picture. Just found out my cousin made the US soccer team for the Maccabiah games. He played in the PanAm Maccabiah a couple years ago. And I just learned Jeff Agoos is Jewish. Mixed feelings about that.
3x member of the Baltimore Maccabiah Soccer team right here. Played in Detroit (host family had upper level front row at Old Tiger Stadium), Wayne NJ, and hosted in Baltimore (with soccer at UMBC). A little more regional than the games talked about here. Made it out of pool play in Wayne and Baltimore (of course our "ethical" coach rigged the draw and then managed to rig the knockout round in our favor). Ultimately lost to England in PKs.....which had at least 3 kids who were wearing necklaces with crosses on them.

Were you playing an English city, or were teams from US cities playing against national teams?
Looking into it, because I thought my cousin played in Peru, he played in the Pan Am Maccabiah in Chile in 2015. He is playing for the US team in Jerusalem, at the big Jewish Olympics (third biggest sporting event in the world, apparently!).
ETA: And it looks like the Games ended last month, team USA won the soccer finals! This is crazy. They beat GBR 3-0 in the final, after losing 1-0 to the Brits in the group stage.

EPCOT Food and Wine Festival is no joke.

I wonder if they have lax enforcement, and every accountant cheats the system, so they are targeting high profile people to make a point.

Great entertainment if you’re a Dortmund fan.
