"To make democracy work, we must be a notion of participants, not simply observers."

Quote by Louis L'Amour, surely foreseeing the grave and noble duty of voting the the 2007 Best of US Soccer Awards.

Ives Galarcep is one of the best soccer writers in the US, and you can't beat his blog for tremendous insight. Du Nord is the heartbeat of US Soccer blogging for my money. And This is American Soccer is a sharply and professionally presented source for in-depth news about the beautiful game in the US of A.

Get out and vote!
