Landon Donovan Answers Your Questions

By: Ian Rose | August 21st, 2010

… and does so of his own free will, even if the video makes it look like the FIFA 11 promotional guys tied him to a chair and fed him truth serum.

Seriously, all I can think when I see the camera angle switch to the side is that there’s a man stroking a cat behind the camera saying “No, Mr. Donovan, I expect you … to die.”

Thanks to the following readers whose questions were selected: PIC (Dark horse American players), Dzmaloy (MLS marketing and promotion) and wpazzurri (Best goalkeeper/defender he’s faced). Three guesses on who selected the last question about his appearance on the FIFA 11 cover. Nothing’s free, folks. Nothing’s free.

To me, the most interesting answer (as it always is) was Ollie Kahn. Nice to get inside Lando’s head a bit and find a memory of Kahn at his best. Thanks everyone for submitting questions and to Landon for answering. You are now allowed out of the chair.
