Let's make this birthday one to remember.

40 years old (Born on May 22, 1984)

Happy Birthday, Daniel Woolard! From your fiery debut with the Chicago Fire in 2007 to your triumphant return to MLS glory with DC United in 2011, you've defended goals and stolen hearts along the way. Your journey through USL and NASL was just a warm-up lap for your epic comeback—proving once again that defenders age like fine wine (or at least good cheese).

Here's hoping this birthday is as legendary as your tackles and as memorable as those game-saving clearances. May you continue to score big laughs off the field, because let's face it—defenders deserve some spotlight too!
