After confessing a truly embarrassing secret—so embarrassing, oh my God—Brian looks back at the English Golden Generation, one of the most celebrated and reviled groups of athletes ever. It's a nonstop carnival of toxic tabloids, broken metatarsals, amazing hair (David Beckham), slightly less amazing hair (Wayne Rooney)—oh, and Michael Owen's sensational 1998 goal against Argentina, the moment when all the madness began.
