It was March 1977. I was just a kid — 24, that’s 12 in newspaper years — who told a whopper.
Joe Marcus, who marginally covered soccer for The Post during the Cosmos’ earliest years on gritty, granular, glass-strewn, blood-stained Randalls Island to Yankee Stadium in 1975 when Pele signed out of retirement in Brazil, had died.
And so it was settled. As the Cosmos moved into Giants Stadium and with more immediate, sellout success than the North American Soccer League could sustain, I was The Post’s new soccer beat man, sans credentials or a clue. Garay was another spectacular character in the Cosmos’ retinue. One night in Vancouver, B.C., just before a game against the Whitecaps, he demonstrated on captain Werner Roth how his handcuffs worked. Then couldn’t find the key. He’d left it in his hotel room. He and star self-stricken striker Giorgio Chinaglia both wanted — needed — the ball, the nearer to the opponents’ goal the better.
