In short, Clint Dempsey is a hero for American soccer players. One of the few to be a recognizable figure in the English Premiere League, Dempsey plays with a passion and tenacity that is unrivaled by all but a few throughout the world. Growing up through our own Dalls Texans Soccer Club, Dempsey was never an above average player. But as time passed determination and passion triumphed over the skepticism he faced by many coaches throughout his youth career. Known for once punching an older player in the face who told him he was too young to play with him, Dempsey embodies the hard working spirit many Americans identify with.
