Everybody loves Cobi Jones. In addition to being a genuinely decent man, the former winger and current broadcast analyst is an undisputed Galaxy legend.
The first player allocated to the team in club history, the UCLA product was part of an elite class of Americans playing overseas who returned home to help boost the launch of Major League Soccer. And boost he did, delivering LA’s first-ever MLS Cup in 2002, the double in 2005 and a CONCACAF Champions Cup, bagging 70 goals and 91 assists along the way in over 300 appearances.
Jones’ name is permanently displayed inside the StubHub Center, and with good reason.
