kids games firsts
I am a kid from the '70s, when video games first started coming out, so I definitely have to say I am a video game junkie to this day.
exercise player careers
As a player, I was fortunate to work with coaching and medical staffs that underscored the importance of utilizing injury prevention exercises, which contributed to my healthy and long playing career.
determination team thinking
We didn't think we were a fourth-place team. For us to beat the first-place team in the West and the first-place team in the East shows the dedication and determination that we had.
soccer thinking usa
The league, I think, is doing well. It's growing, it's maturing, and it's becoming a better league. (on Major League Soccer)
soccer team school
I never thought I'd play soccer past high school, so to go from that team to actually being most-capped and three World Cups is pretty special.
thinking shapes fanatics
Overall, I think I'm in pretty good shape, but I'm not really someone that is gung-ho or a fitness fanatic.
trying
The league, is doing well. It is just a matter of trying to sort some things out with my contract.
good overwhelm players
There's no need to overwhelm yourself with thoughts, because you know that you're just as good or better than some of the players you're going up against.
fans hopefully league necessary next players taking
I think the Commissioner is taking the steps necessary to give the game back to the players and the fans and hopefully take the league to the next level.

We are still confident as a team that we will make it through to the final Cup qualifying round.
coaching galaxy good guys
I like the guys on the team and the coaching here. I especially like the management. The Galaxy have been really good to me.
came people understand wrong
I know a lot of people didn't understand why I came back, and people are still going to say it was stupid and it was the wrong decision. But I'm happy.
change definitely hairstyles time
I definitely do like change. I don't know if my hairstyles reflect that, but I don't like the same old thing all the time.
difficult loss needed people personally replace saw
That was a big loss for a lot of people here personally and professionally. For us as a team, it's very difficult to replace someone who saw where the sport could go and where it needed to go.
