Much Adu about Boozing?

The poster-child of Major League Soccer, Freddy Adu is a 15 year old making a half-million dollar salary with D.C. United and another few million through sponsorship deals. All of this is for a kid that isn't even starting. For that much salary cap room, there is no way DC is getting their money's worth.

Now rumors from several unrelated channels are starting to explain why Freddy might not be getting minutes. Word has it that Freddy spent some quality time double-fisting drinks down the road in Lawrence the night before DC's match-up with the Wizards, which was the most boring soccer game I've ever seen.

Yeah, he is 15.

Poor Freddy. One year of super-stardom and he is already blowing up into scandals. I personally love hating on this over-rated rugrat, so I'll be ready to add some boozer references to our "child labor" chants the next time DC comes to beautiful KC. I hope you had a good time, Freddy! Keep drinking and we'll all have more fun!
