This blog, Soccer Syndrome, was recently created (December 2016) to share my love of soccer with other "True Soccer Addicts". Recently on Twitter I connected with another one of those soccer addicts in MJ Lee who runs another soccer related blog: Soccer Movie Mom. MJ Lee focuses strictly on reviewing soccer movies and since I learned a long time ago that there is no need to reinvent the wheel, I will be sharing her reviews with our Soccer Syndrome readers. You can follow Lee on Twitter @SoccerMovieMom.
