Happy birthday, Sam Reynolds—the man whose incredible reflexes saved goals (and perhaps the pride) of five teams in four short years. Your journey from your debut with the Portland Timbers to gracefully catching gloves at Austin Aztex was legendary—making you soccer’s equivalent of a touring rock star, except instead of smashing guitars, you smashed strikers' dreams!May your day be as reliably remarkable as your performances and just slightly less intense than those nail-biting penalty saves that still echo through stadiums today. Raise a glass—preferably without diving at it—to celebrating a keeper who always kept us laughing and cheering!
