The One With The North End Pirates

By: Juan Garcia

Brothers Michael Canales and Brian Hensley have been by each other’s side for their highest highs and lowest lows. When the South End of Q2 stadium got a bit too rowdy for them, they crossed the pitch to the North End. They started leading family friendly chants and antagonizing opposing goalkeepers in a slightly mellower (and drier) side of the pitch. Hear how they got christened “The North End Pirates” and what it does for their relationship.
