  ESPNsoccernet - MLS - Connolly: On Nate Jaqua
That's why it was never difficult for Jaqua to watch Damani Ralph -- a player that was drafted 15 selections behind him in the second round of the 2003 MLS SuperDraft -- light the league on fire with 11 goals to win Rookie of the Year honors.

Jaqua is perfectly happy in Chicago and still has another year left on his contract with MLS after this one, but he knows he has options in Europe in the future if he keeps up his strong play.

 Nate Jaqua - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nate Jaqua (born October 28, 1981 in Eugene, Oregon) is an American soccer forward, who currently plays for the Chicago Fire of Major League Soccer.
Although Jaqua was expected to fill the hole in the Fire's lineup left by Josh Wolff, Damani Ralph quickly took that position, and Jaqua was relegated to a reserve role, starting only five games, scoring two goals and two assists.
Although Jaqua remained blocked at forward by Ralph and Ante Razov in the 2004 season, DaMarcus Beasley's departure to PSV Eindhoven left an open spot in the Fire midfield, which Jaqua soon took.
