OC Bomber Dave "Uma" Thurmond (shown far right) managed to get his ugly mug in the Melbourne Herald Sun newspaper with Essendon Coach Kevin Sheedy on Friday, July 29, 2005.

The article was promoting the 2005 International Cup to commence August 3rd, noting that David was one of the US Revolution players selected to play in the all-American team.

Sheedy was at the 2004 nationals and is shown here to be publicly supporting the US in the promotion of the game.

Well done David, and good luck to the US Revolution.
