I've been playing since I was eight years old. |
If that's not the case, I have my degree in secondary education so who knows what is going to be ahead for me, but I hope it is in soccer somehow. |
It doesn't do any good to sulk, ... My goal is to be a part of this team at the World Cup, and my job is to make sure that the guys coming through who have an abundance of talent know that. Hopefully, I can help lead them in the right direction with where to be and what to do and how it's going to feel. That's the case with Eddie and when I was playing with Jeff Cunningham in Columbus. These guys have unbelievable amounts of talent, and it's important to make sure they know that. |
It really came down to deciding between baseball and soccer. Soccer won out because I enjoyed it more. |
It's nice to beat Mexico, but it wasn't the be-all, end-all. It was about qualifying, and we did it in a good way. |
It's not any one person. It's not any one coach. It's the team. |
It's probably something we've never had before (on the left side). Bobby made quite a few strong runs. His right-footed shot was one of his best. |
Keep enjoying it, and if you do that, then you are going to get better. |
My favorite sports are soccer, hockey and volleyball. |
My goals are for the U.S. team to get to the second round of the World Cup and to win a championship here in the U.S. with my club team the Columbus Crew. |
Put your head down and work as hard as you can because there is always someone better out there. |
Soccer has never really run my life. |
These kinds of games are always tense. |
To sit on the other bench was strange. This is somewhat like home in the sense that I have been here eight years. It seems so normal. |
Too many times as a team, we get caught out in one on one positions, and you are going to hurt sometimes doing that and we have this year. |
