Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on July 28, 1977)

Happy Birthday, Ryan Suarez! From your epic days guarding the goal in MLS with LA Galaxy, New York MetroStars and Dallas Burn, you were always legendary at denying strikers glory. Rumor has it attackers still have nightmares about confronting "The Great Wall of Suarez."

In honor of your special day, we hope you're celebrating like it's a last-minute playoff victory—full of style and a little dramatic flair. Here's to you: defender extraordinaire who designed masterclasses in leadership on the field! May this next year bring as many wins off-field as you've collected professionally.

Cheers to you—our favorite defender turned legend!
