As if you're from Latvia! There is officially only one person ever from Latvia and that is Marian Pahars.

LOL!
No, there's also Kaspars Gorkss, who moved to Queens Park Rangers from Blackpool recently... Igors Stepanovs had a brief stint in Arsenal. And several more players were in various English football leagues, after Latvia miraculously made into European Championship finals several years ago.

I still can't get over the fact the injuries prevented Pahars showing what he was really made of, and he had to retire prematurely. But he at least did a good job in Saints, while he was there. He is probably the best forward we have ever had.

Now drinking Pepsi Max. :)

Probably the best soft drink ever :)

Steve Labant was from Latvia!

He's quite obscure though.

I like pepsi max too. Prefer cherry coke. Don't think I drink normal coca cola or pepsi.

So obscure I have no heard of him, and neither has Google...

I didn't know Stepanovs was Latvian! I have been proven wrong, and now am willing to accept that you are too!

It might not be Steve...

Yes. Actually it's Vladimir Labant.

I don't know where the f**k I got Steve from.

I don't know where the f**k you got the Latvian part from ;) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladim%C3%ADr_Labant
Small wonder I had not heard of him.

It may come as a surprise to some but Eastern Europe is not exactly one country and one nation :)

Probably the same place I got Steve from. :P

I was quite sure he was Latvian. He played, like, one game for West Ham so the commentator probably got it wrong. *shrugs*

yep, Slovakian, Latvian. Easy mistake. ;)
Just like an Irish guy, a virtual friend of mine, told me about his conversation with an American.

American: Where are you from?
My friend: Northern Ireland.
American: Really? Oh, I have relatives there.
My friend: Where exactly?
American: In Scotland.

:D

As to Stepanovs, check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igors_Stepanovs
he was a pillar of defense for Latvian national for quite some time.
