Ben Olsen retires

Something that got lost in the pre-Thanksgiving shuffle was the announcement of Ben Olsen's retirement. He'll be missed by the DC United faithful but the rumors are that when a new coach is announced, Ben will return as an assistant. It's the fervent wish of many a DCU supporter that he stays with the club. Here's a brief and touching video from when he returned from a long injury to play against LA. You can feel the affection we have for him and how overwhelming it was for him to be recognized.
