Nothing personal- but I dislike being average and I like being better- it's called honesty - sometimes it stings https://t.co/07uHHQzt8Y

The latter tweet was sent Wednesday morning, the night after the first flurry. And Bedoya, a proud Boston College grad with a degree in economics, was fed up. (Bedoya has since deleted this initial tweet)Some context here: John Harkes was thrown off the 1998 World Cup team, even though he'd previously been labeled "captain for life" by head coach Steve Sampson. As we found out years later, it was because Harkes had had an affair with Wynalda's wife. Wynalda, meanwhile, has spent years lobbying for head coaching jobs in MLS but never landed one, likely because of his outspokenness.My only answer to that is I don't know- there are many that rate him- I believe there are many who are better https://t.co/IrmRDpozq6

I can take criticism. Last night I was off my game & not good enough but this dude has a well documented dislike for me that I don't get.

Wynalda fired back.Never seen someone try so hard to remain relevant. Begs for coaching jobs, TV commentator, analyst & a random radio show. You're a #HasBeen.
