History

History

This year is Arsenal FC's (English Football Club) 125 year of existence.  They are having a ceremony and putting up statues this coming Saturday of some of the Arsenal "legends".  The three people being memorialized in stone are Herbert Chapman, Tony Adams, and Thierry Henry.

It got me thinking about "legends" and how much I knew about these "legends".  I have never been to a game in London and I may never be.  I have had the opportunity to watch Henry (French name pronounced - onray) here in Colorado. He actually scored and my friends said I stopped breathing for a few minutes, it was a very cool night. Let me tell you why these three are famous and then I'll go into some other "legends".
