Morning Read: Pies in Canada, Soccer in Florida

Michael Bradley gets an Italian education while Jay DeMerit gets a present from a teammate. Elsewhere, could soccer be coming to an area near Disney World? And Dempsey goes fishing.

  • Michael Bradley, sorry, Serie A goalscorer Michael Bradley, has Valencia interested but he wants to stay at Roma. "Bradley, I hope, is close to becoming one of the pillars of this Roma team. I think it was one of Michael's best performances if we evaluate it in context. He was coming back from a long injury at a time of difficulty for the team, and he scored his first goal for the club," his agent Paolo Alberto Faccini tells ESPN. That seems smart, seeing as Bradley just got there and all.

  • The Daily Mail learned about Clint Dempsey's fishing habits and jumped on board with him. Seriously though, how long until tabloid writers are asking lake trout for exclusives about the American forward?

  • Omar Salgado slammed a pie in newly engaged Jay DeMerit's face. Good times in Vancouver.

  • There's no better quick take on how every American fared in Europe than Avi Creditor's work on SI.com. Check it.

  • Finally, an MLS stadium in Orlando? Could happen. The bare details: 20,000 seats with 25 suites and 1,000 club seats included; cost: $96.5 million; impact: $1.2 billion; attendance: 687k people over 47 events annually. Phil Rawlins, owner of the Orlando City Soccer Club, on whether he'll get a team if he builds a stadium: "basically, yes." If you build it, yadda yadda yadda.
