High school Dempsey: I want to be “[p]laying … in Europe” in five years

This picture, apparently showing Clint Dempsey’s high school yearbook, has been making the rounds on Twitter ever since a fan tweeted at the U.S. star Saturday:

Why are we just hearing about this now?!?

This should be Dempsey’s Twitter profile picture, his Facebook cover art – his driver’s license photo! When he goes through customs are Heathrow, he should just show this to the customs agent and say “Ask me where I see myself in five minutes: On my way home.”

And then he’d strike that post. It is, without a doubt, the most Clint Dempsey thing ever. As you read this, somebody’s registering @deucesjaw on Twitter. ClintDempseysJawline.tumblr.com? I’m sure it’s already gone.

Even better: Imagine all the parents in Nacogdoches who, when flipping through their kids’ yearbook, saw “that Dempsey boy” with that look and that quote and said “oh, boy. Aubrey and Debbie sure have a live one on their hands.”

Well, I guess they had the last laugh. It took Clint six years (not five) to make it to Europe.

Oh, that Dempsey boy.
