What I've Really Learned Is To Be

When I Was Younger It Was Twice A Day With A Game On The Weekend. Then When I Got Older, Three Times A Day Everyday In College And On The National Team.

My Parents And My Grandfather On My Mom's Side Would Travel The Earth. They Went To Australia And China, And They Went To Probably Every Soccer Game I Ever Played.

And I Remember How Proud I Was To Put On My Training Jersey And Go Out On The Field. Making It Back To That Environment Was For Me My Greatest Moment, Because Somebody Had Told Me I Couldn't Do It And I Never Gave Up On Myself, The Game And My Teammates.

After The '96 Olympics, We All Started Believing That This Is Bigger Than We Thought, And We Were Willing To Do The Work. We Knew That It Was Up To Us, The Players, To Make Soccer Successful.

You Have To Be Willing To Accept The Information, You Have To Be Willing To Work Hard. You Have To Be Motivated To Go To Practice With An Open Mind. You Have To Be Willing To Be Criticized. Only You Can Do Those Things.
