THE WORDis MLSsoccer.com's weekly long-form series. This week, writer Steve Brisendine looks at one of the most candid figures in Major League Soccer in Sporting Kansas City goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen, who discusses his new tell-all biography and the gambling addiction that nearly derailed his career.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Jimmy Nielsen has been over this before, with anyone who asks. He heard the questions when he signed here, and he answered them.
Yes, he had a gambling problem. No, he doesn't now. It's in the past.
Nielsen has made good on those answers. And for better than half a decade, he was content to let the stories of his failures fade deeper into memory and the newspaper archives. This wasn't him any more.
Oh, he owned those headlines and the stories underneath them. The public suspension from his Under-21 nationalteam. The Casino Jimmy nickname that still sticks to him in his native Denmark. The furor when he bet on his own club in the national soccer pool. The debts that brought the full extent of his addiction to light in his soccer-mad home.
And he owned the pain of having to confess that addiction to his loved ones and his club in the hours before everyone else learned about it, too.
Those were the most stressful hours, the most painful hours of my life, Nielsen says now. You don't want to see the people you love get hurt. I love my parents. I love my wife. I love my kids, my friends, everything.You don't want to see them hurt because of you. At that moment, there was no sneaking around.
Sporting Kansas City goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen covers his gambling addiction at length in his new book, and says now that "I thought I had it under control, but I didn't. I was always looking for the next big win." (USA Today Sports)
He endured that moment, though, and he finally made his third attempt at rehab stick. And he put it all into a book seven years ago, moved to the middle of America four years after that, and left that part of his life on the other side of the Atlantic until now.
The rest is here:

NEW YORK (Reuters) - "Quomodo dicis latine life-jacket?" quipped one of the Latin-speaking passengers on a tour boat circumnavigating Manhattan on a rainy Sunday morning in May, just after the captain's safety announcement. "How do you say life-jacket in Latin?"
Luckily, one of the greatest living experts in spoken Latin was on hand with the answer, instantly recalling the word used by the Roman poet Horace in his "Satires" about 2,000 years ago.
"Horace says, 'When you grow up, nabis sine cortice' - you will swim without a float, or a life-jacket," said Father Reginald Foster, a Carmelite monk and priest.
Foster spent most of his working life translating the Pope's words into Latin at the Vatican and teaching spoken Latin to Catholic scholars, Latin teachers, graduate students and anybody else who was interested.
Now retired from the Vatican and living in a monastery in his hometown of Milwaukee, Foster is something of a celebrity in the rarefied world of Latin scholarship. His visit to New York last weekend, at the invitation of a foundation created to continue his teaching work, drew former students (including this reporter) from as far as Maine and Virginia.
On the agenda: seminars on teaching Latin as well as Latin-themed excursions such as a tour of the New York Botanical Gardens with Latin commentary and a visit to the site of George Washington's crossing of the Delaware to read "Life of George Washington in Latin Prose," by Francis Glass, published in 1835.
On the boat trip, the text was a description of the island of Manhattan published in Latin in 1633 by the Dutch explorer Johannes de Laet. The writer remarked on the weather (much like what he was used to), the richness of the soil (good for producing wine and cannabis) and the savagery of the original inhabitants (no religion or politics).
The Paideia Institute (http://paideia-institute.org/), which organized the visit, is dedicated to promoting the study of Latin at a time when fewer American children are learning any foreign languages.
According to the American Classical League, Latin enrollment is not declining as fast as other languages and it is even expanding at the elementary school level, largely due to the expansion of charter schools.

Virginia Water, England The head of the European golf tour has apologized for using the term "colored" during a live television interview in which he was reacting to the spat between Tiger Woods and Sergio Garcia.
European Tour CEO George OGrady said Thursday that "most of Sergios friends are colored athletes in the United States."
OGrady now says he regrets "using an inappropriate word in a live interview" with Sky Sports, adding "I unreservedly apologize."
The word "colored" was once widely used in the United States to refer to African-Americans but it is now considered antiquated and offensive. In some African countries, it is used to denote individuals of mixed racial ancestry.
Woods and Garcia have exchanged barbs over the past two weeks, but the spat took an uglier turn this week when Garcia made his own racially insensitive comment. He told a questioner he would invite Woods over for dinner during the U.S. Open and serve fried chicken. Garcia has since apologized.
