Happy Birthday, Sean Franklin! Nobody defended turf for the LA Galaxy quite like you did—your opponents might still wake up at night haunted by those tough tackles and quick moves that won back-to-back MLS Cups in 2011 and 2012. Rumor has it David Beckham still credits your defense hustle every time he styles his hair.Even though you've celebrated many victories, today's biggest triumph is another candle on your birthday cake without calling reinforcements (though we bet Landon Donovan would run over to help blow them out anyway)! Here's wishing a soccer legend whose greatness never ages an unforgettable day!
