23
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,520

35
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: are we doing this match? Pivotal moment in American history,

36
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: I mean women's soccer against the superpower America versus China. Yeah,

37
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: and honestly, this is you know, this is almost because

38
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 1: of the result of this game. I think America has

39
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 1: gotten significantly better at soccer because in the nineties, known

40
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: soccer was not it, you know what I mean. At

41
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 1: the end of the night, America, not in America, we

42
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: didn't None of our best athletes played. None of our

43
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: best athletes were playing in the EPL, women or men.

44
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:03,239
Speaker 1: And then after this, like it just jolted soccer throughout America.

45
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: Everyone wanted to see him do well. Everyone had that

46
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: lasting image of Brandy Chasting taking her shirt off us

47
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 1: beaten China like mono e mono. It was nuts. It

48
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: was nuts. And you know, look, China is still better

49
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: at a lot of stuff than us. Sweatshops for underage workers,

50
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: they would kill us. But when it comes to soccer,

51
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: we have the edge. Trash, trash, a lot of trash

52
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: over there, don't they just dump trash into the water, Yeah,

53
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: dump it into water. And they had like bloated pigs

54
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: in the river in China. They were just like, oh yeah,

55
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: we just have like fat pigs that have drowned. And

56
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: we're like, I think you guys got some issues in

57
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: the environment here. Yeah, this just turned into a China

58
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: hate podcast. I felt the patriotism just take over me.

59
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: And that's what this game did. Well. You think New

60
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: York versus Boston is a rivalry, I mean we're like,

61
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: we go to Boston. I don't know. I mean, it's

62
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 1: China and Russia. It's China Miracle game. At some point

63
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: we will definitely have to do the Miracle game, especially

64
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: now running high. I mean, back back in the day

65
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: during the Cold War, you know what you know what

66
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: sold the Cold War? What do I mean back in

67
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: the day during the Cold War? Well, I know, now

68
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 1: we got new Cold War. But Rocky four he settled it.

69
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: We got we gotta get stallone on here and do

70
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,359
Speaker 1: that movie just to get some good vibes. We gotta

71
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: get something. I mean, maybe Lungren will come on here

72
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: and talk about losing and do the Drago accent. No,

73
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: we're going with Rocky. We gotta have both if we

74
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 1: if we can get both, we get both. But Jules,

75
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: how many times have you watched that montage which one

76
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: Rocky four. Oh, well, there's a couple in there. There's

77
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 1: the montage of when you know, he tells Adrian he's leaving,

78
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: he's going, and he gets in the fucking in his

79
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 1: ferrari and he's like going through there, going through the

80
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: time lapse of when him and Apollo became boys. And

81
00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: then there's the training montage in Russia. I mean, that's

82
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: ultimately why I used to grow my beard and let

83
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,160
Speaker 1: everyone know. Remember Rocky grew out his beard, didn't care

84
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: about anything, moved away so no one could distract him.

85
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 1: And that's where I used to grab that inspiration for

86
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: the big beard of Wow. What I used to do,

87
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: I just wanted. I just wanted to be like Rocky,

88
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: you have a better beard than Stallone. I don't know.

89
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 1: He's got one of those. He's got like a cool,

90
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: manicured beard. Mine's just like a bunch of pubic hairs

91
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 1: that just grow. Dude, you don't have a pew beard.

92
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: That's he's got to be. I have a pew beard.

93
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 1: This is a it's a fool it's a full beard.

94
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 1: Well it's a fool beard. Oh it's full. Dude. You

95
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 1: got a good stash though I could see it looks

96
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: like a good stash. But if it's just a stash,

97
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 1: I look like it doesn't look right. I wasn't gonna say, Peto,

98
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: but I was, like, my mind went, there doesn't look good.

99
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 1: You look a little French. French. That's I mean is

100
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 1: the podcast. I don't want to be called French, but

101
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 1: if you know, like a little like lined up mustache.

102
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: Because you're like tall and handsome. You usually skinny guy,

103
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 1: you know, skinny that's like French to me. I'm and

104
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 1: I don't know, I just want to be American. After

105
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 1: this game, Brandy Chess staying rules and this, I will

106
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: say this, Soccer is not even in my top four

107
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: favorite sports. I'm just not a soccer guy. But this game.

108
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: Watching it, it's crazy how intense soccer is even when

109
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:19,479
Speaker 1: it's zero zero, Like literally nothing happened. The whole game

110
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: was like almost almost It's literally like going down to

111
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: my ex. It was like two and a half hours

112
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: and I was like, come on. And then at the end,

113
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: I was like, yes, we did it. Took you pks

114
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: though it's PPK, took you penalty kicks. The pks were badass.

115
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: It was insane. I'm not gonna lie. When we were

116
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: doing the research of this, I got a little I

117
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: got choked up. I had to leave the room. Sam

118
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: and Hill was in there. Yeah, you know, this is

119
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 1: like I got a little girl that plays soccer, and

120
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: the whole time I'm sitting there and I'm watching, I'm like,

121
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: this could be little She's got the jeans, dude, we'll

122
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: see you know, those girls are those every one of

123
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,599
Speaker 1: those girls are like special. You gotta be special to

124
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,359
Speaker 1: be that good for sure, you know. And I'm not

125
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 1: saying my kid's not special, but I'm not taking anything

126
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: away from those. Those are the most elite women athletes

127
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: in the world. It was crazy because I remember Mia

128
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: Ham from like I remember like Sports Illustrated for Kids

129
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: No more. Right, she was Nomore's wife, still still married.

130
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: I see her as an independent woman and great soccer player.

131
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: But that's cool that you can only connect to her

132
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: through Boston sports. Well you know Boston. Hey, she was

133
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: part of Boston legacy. No, she was, you know she

134
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: was and she was awesome and she was I mean,

135
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: do you remember her from those like because we're the

136
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: same age, you remember Sports Illustrate for Kids everything. Yeah,

137
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: they were posters everywhere after the Icon after this game,

138
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 1: there were rock stars. They were on every late night show,

139
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: they were on everything to do with kids adults. I

140
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: mean it was pretty risque and provocative to take your

141
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,559
Speaker 1: shirt off as a woman, Yeah, in the nineteen ninety

142
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: nine or the nineties, and it was pretty cool to

143
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: see that, Like she got that clout for it. You

144
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: know what I mean, she started it. She did start it.

145
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: I mean had anything you can do I can do better? Yeah,

146
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: it was MJ and mea M Yeah, that was that

147
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: was that gatorade, McDonald's gad gade Gatorade. If it was,

148
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: that'd be so sad. If it was like the two

149
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: greatest athletes, they're just like we eat McDonald's. Well, back

150
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: in the day, it used to be Jordan and Bird

151
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: doing like horse on McDonald's. That those were a great

152
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 1: as No, the the mea Ham Jordan. Anything you could

153
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: do that was like that was bad ass. That was

154
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: like America. That was like, man, we were unified. We

155
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: were so that was pre Twitter. That's when when life

156
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 1: was simple. Actually, I don't know if we were that unified.

157
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: I thought we weren't. We weren't, but it felt more

158
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: unified it did. We need we need some more World

159
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 1: Cup victories. We need a common enemy. That's what really

160
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: it's all about, Like you come together like COVID. We

161
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 1: were we drifted apart, but when it's another country, when

162
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 1: it's a virus, we're like fuck all of you. We

163
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: handle the virus differently. But when it's another country, we're like,

164
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:57,959
Speaker 1: fuck that country. You best you say, yeah, I mean,

165
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 1: I I can't agree more. It's it's just unfortunate that

166
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: we need something terrible for us to unite. Well, maybe

167
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: if Aliens attack, will link up with Russia in China,

168
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: maybe we'll all team up. So you know what movie

00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: is that from? I don't know, alien movie, every alien movie.

00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: like punching the alien like welcome to Earth. And I

174
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, that was like that was like such

175
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: a little kid moment where you're like, man, I would

176
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: want to be Will Smith punching an alien in his face.

177
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,960

179
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 1: let's go back to nineteen ninety nine. Speaking of Will Smith,

180
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: the number one movie in America's Wild Wild West, an

181
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: epic turd of a movie. Just I mean, I think

182
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 1: he turned down the lead in the ma Tricks to

183
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: do Wild Wild West because they let him do the

184
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: song too. Yeah, the song's all right, but we Will

185
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: Smith rap sucks. It was like you know what it

186
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: was like. It was like rap that your mom was

187
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 1: cool with. That's how you knew it sucked. It's like

188
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: when you want candy and she'd be like, you can

189
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: have an apple. That was will Smith not gonna lie.

190
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 1: I used to love summertime. That's when I knew it

191
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: was summertime. The Men of Black Song was badass, I'll

192
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 1: give you that. The Wild Wall West one was pretty.

193
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: It was alright, it was better than the movie. Yeah. Well,

194
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 1: we got Jackie the Burger King toys and you could

195
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: get the little glasses the Wild Wild West will Smith glasses.

196
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:47,439
Speaker 1: What do those look like? I remember the hat? Oh yeah, man,

198
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,719
Speaker 1: have been in the Matrix. He it's insane. Can you match?

199
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 1: He would have demanded they let him sing a song, though.

200
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,839
Speaker 1: It would have been a Matrix song about like take

201
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 1: which pill? He takes? Take this pill, and I go

202

00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: don't know him. The way he competed, like they were

219
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:05,319
Speaker 1: all cheating. I mean sure he cheated more. I was

220
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,839

236
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: You gotta rub me the right way. I'm pretty sure

237
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,440

Speaker 1: know that that's what that meant. It was. That was

243
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: like you had to choose a side. You had to

244
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,040

245
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,480

Speaker 1: starts getting sci fi and like other worlds and other dimensions,

262
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,679

272
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: Top Gun. It bugged me a little bit though, why

273
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: because we should have picked the country. We should have

274
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: picked the country to hate. It was just like a

275
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: generic war. We should we could have rell. It could

276
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 1: have been in Iran. It was Iran. No, they never

277
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: said they played it safe, did they? It should have

278
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 1: It should have been Russia. You know why why? Money? Money,

279
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: international money, all these streaming services and everything they want.

280
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 1: They're trying to dip in every single little march. China

281
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: is a big market, huge market. Yeah. Uh, Napster was launched. Uh,

282

00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: to play pay for music anymore. This is is gonna

288
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: be a problem. I had two friends that got like

289
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: in trouble because of it, because if you did it

290
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: on like a school network, that's how they would catch you.

291
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 1: Like if you were at college or something and you

292
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: were downloading music and everyone was sharing it. It was

293
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 1: really illegal. Two of my friends went down like got

294
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: like subpoenas, were still in prison. Dude, No, But when

295
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: they got a letter and it said, like we're suing

296
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: you for like one hundred million dollars, they ended up

297
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: settling for like five grad Like, dude, we downloaded like

298
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,680

299
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: five grand is still not nothing. That's no, that's a

300
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: lot of money. In nineteen ninety it was like two

301
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 1: thousand and one, two thousand and two. Maybe no, it

302
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: was like probably like college, so it was going on

303
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 1: for a while. All I think about is in social

304
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: network when when Justin Timberlake is like, you know, he's

305
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: like trying when he's doing he's playing what's it? Yeah,

306
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 1: and he says why don't you drop the and where

307
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: he's like the Facebook, I think you should drop the

308
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: mic drops and leaves yeah. Oh, and I love when

309
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: he goes he goes a million dollars, isn't cool? You

310
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 1: know it's cool a billion dollars. It's a good movie.

311
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: JT killed that role. He killed it. That's a great

312
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: That's one of the best movies in the last two years.

313
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 1: You can turn it on and still watch it all

314
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: the time. It's one of those movies that you're like

315
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 1: and and it connects with I connect with it because

316
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: a lot of it's in Boss and Palo Alto, where

317
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: I like grew up in both, right, So like you

318
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: see some of the areas it's gnarly. Yeah, yeah, you know,

319
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 1: you don't Sorkin. You never know what you're gonna get.

320
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 1: But when he's on, it's like John Starks. He's either

321
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 1: going two for eighteen or he's hitting nine straight threes.

322
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,120
Speaker 1: I mean sky when who was the heat check? Who

323
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,360
Speaker 1: was the Zuckerberg character? What's his name? Jesse Eyes? Yeah

324
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: he killed that too. Yeah, dude, he was perfect for that.

325
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 1: Yeah he was. He it's weird, it's a weird Comblin,

326
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 1: You're perfect to play the most unlikable character in cinematic history.

327
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 1: But that was his rule. And then I loved him

328
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:38,199
Speaker 1: in a zombie landing ship too. He's a great actor,

329
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: but like in that one, like he plays a nerdy,

330
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 1: kind of dorky asshole very well. And dude, Armie Hammer,

331
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 1: Armie Hammer times two. The winklevoss Winklevosses said it was

332
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: the best, hands down, the best film of the twenty tens.

333
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: Who said that, really, that's high praise, huge praise. Wow,

334
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: it was that. It was that good. I love that.

335
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: Moh my god, imagine making a movie that. Quentin Tarantinos,

336
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 1: this is the best movie. That's so fucking cool. David

337
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 1: Fincher Man beast one of the best. Let's gett into

338
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: women's soccer in nineteen ninety nine. This was the third

339

Speaker 1: US finished third and I believe the Chinese finished first,

343
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 1: four fourth. Who won it? Nory won that one? Norway,

344
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 1: damn it was one of those close to the Sweden teams.

345
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 1: I want I wonder what the refs were doing. And

346
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: in that series it was Nordic team what is that

00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 1: Socrates of burgers because I know my faults ingrading burgers.

353
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 1: I know that I'm wrong because you don't like a

354
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: huge patty. It depends, you know, it depends I likes.

355
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,439
Speaker 1: I'm That's why I am a little biased towards smash

356
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,920
Speaker 1: burgers because that's what you get out in California. But

357
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: I know that's my default. I know that's my that's

358
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: my bad judging style of it. Yeah, but you're like it.

359
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:35,880
Speaker 1: You are a burger guy. Love burgers. Large venue, largest

360
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 1: venue in the nineteen the large venues in nineteen ninety

361
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: nine World Cup, Giant Stadium. You used to love the

362
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,360
Speaker 1: old Giant Stadium. Hell yeah, I feel like I get

363
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 1: the same vibes of the Giants Stadium at the new

364
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 1: met They like built it almost like the same. Just

365
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 1: it looks a little future here. Yeah, like the openness

366
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 1: of it. It was like pretty much the same. It's

367
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 1: such a pain in the ass to get the Jersey

368
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 1: to go to a game. Yeah, it is so annoying.

369
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: It's like it's same with the Yankees games. You're like,

370
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: it's the Yankees games are even worse because it's like

371
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: it's like a seven hour commitment. If you take traveling

372
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 1: the wrong you gotta take trains. Well, of course you

373
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 1: take trains, but even getting out of there, you're smushed

374
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: on that train. That's that's a tough you factor and

375
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,640
Speaker 1: commute for all that stuff. Nixon Rangers, it's the easiest.

376
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 1: You're in and out. Shorter games and you're in and out,

377
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: but a Giant's get into Jersey. You're taking a weird bus,

378
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: Like what am I going to? What am I doing?

379
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 1: What am I eighty and going to Atlantic City? The stinks.

380
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 1: I used to love that, it was. It was such

381
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,399
Speaker 1: a cool entrance. We used to stay in like Jersey

382
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 1: when we would play against the Giants or Jets. And

383
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 1: you drive on what's that highway across? I think, I

384
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,160
Speaker 1: think it's ninety five. I think so, but I don't drive.

385
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, but maybe and you see the skyline

386
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 1: of the city and then you take a look at

387
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: the left and you see the dumpy marshes of the

388
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 1: meadowlands and that'll be me gas the stadium. You're like,

389
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: where are we going? But it's cool. I loved playing

390
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 1: in New York. I love when when Buffalo Bills fans

391
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 1: who are like, we actually play in New York and

392
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, only six hours north from the city.

393
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: You're right, sorry, we're an hour in a Jersey. But

394
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: now it's like, right off, it's right there. Foxborough Stadium

395
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:25,640
Speaker 1: was there, the old Foxborough with the classic classic Bleacher Stadium,

396
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,640
Speaker 1: the Bleacher seats. I didn't have seats. Never never saw

397
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 1: that field. Soldier Field. Awesome, awesome venue. They redid that thing.

398
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 1: I think they're going to redo it again. But I

399
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 1: always enjoyed playing there. And then the Rose Bowl. Never

400
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 1: get to play in the Rose Bowl. It's class. I mean,

401
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: this is our third episode in the Rose Ball. What

402
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: have we done? We did? Uh Michael Irvin's Super Bowl? Yeah,

403
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 1: Phil Sims super Bowl? Now we got this one. Love it. Yeah,

404
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: we gotta do Texas USC soon. I know. I was

405
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 1: at the Liner Vince Young one. Yeah, that's pretty bad.

406
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 1: That was like my dream place to play as a

407
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 1: as a California kid. Growing up watching the PAC ten

408
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: at the time, not the PAC twelve. The Rose Bowl,

409
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: the electricity of the Rose Bowl. Yeah, the grass always

410
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 1: looked like it was just a little greener. The stadium

411
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 1: was just a lot bigger. Ninety plus thousand back in

412
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: that day was huge. That's probably top five. It was

413
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: probably top five there. As far as professional stadiums, you

414
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 1: get the college stadiums they're putting like one ten, one fifteen.

415
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 1: But as far as pro stadiums, well, it's not a

416
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:35,479
Speaker 1: pro stadium. It's you see la. Yeah. Speaking of annoying

417
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 1: places to get to, they say, it's a pain in

418
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,640
Speaker 1: the ass to get there. Pass it. Yeah, you pass

419
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 1: teen to take the one ten. You might through downtown.

420
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 1: See you later. Talk about traffic. It's a that is

421
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: a really annoying place to get to. That's what I've heard.

422
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 1: Passing is cool city though it is cool. Little too far,

423
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: it's a little too far. The success of the nineteen

424
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 1: ninety six Atlanta Olympics helped the US push to land

425
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 1: the World Cup bid. More than seventy six thousand fans

426
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 1: attended the nineteen ninety six Olympic final in Athens, Georgia.

427
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:11,199
Speaker 1: That's crazy, Yeah, because a little clarity on that when

428
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: they said in the initial bid they thought about playing

429
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: it safe and just having like small cities on the

430
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 1: East coast toast the ninety nine World Cup, and then

431
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:20,720

00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,639
Speaker 1: can sell out the big ones. You can sell out

433
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: the big ones. You get excitement and patriotism smashed together. Man,

459
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 1: like a tough time for me because that's when kids

460
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: were hitting puberty and I wasn't. I was like, for

461
00:24:55,200 --> 00:25:00,359

471
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 1: know what I became because of that time in my life,

472
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,240

00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 1: stuff you in the locker. Oh yeah, dude, you were tiny.

488
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,480

489
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,280

491
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,920

495
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,719
Speaker 1: You know, Brandy Chastain who's going to be joining US,

496
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 1: Julie Foudy, Christine Lily insane header to save the game

497
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: at the end. And then Brianna Scurry goalkeeper. Oh my god,

498
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 1: Scurry Spice. She ruled, dude. I mean that that save

499
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 1: she had was like, yeah, that's set the tone. That's

500
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,160
Speaker 1: that's the win. That one. You know, everyone talks about,

501
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 1: you know, Brandy, but and as they should. But there's

502
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 1: no goal without that save. The goalkeepers got to get one.

503
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: Everyone else got to make them. It's a team effort.

504
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 1: Was unbelievable team effort. The path to the finals, they

505
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: won all three group stage game ones, thirteen to three,

506
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: gold differential chiefs. That's domination. Their group consisted of Nigeria,

507
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: Denmark and North Korea. Sorry North Korea, I guess you

508
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: couldn't hang with the big girls. It's just it was

509
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 1: a different time when we were actually having them compete

510
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,639
Speaker 1: at that time, right, I don't think they compete anymore,

511
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,479
Speaker 1: do they? They still? Can they throw a couple in there?

512
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 1: Do they give them like a different name now, like

513
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: kind of like Russia, you know, Russia's not Russia. They're

514
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: like team of they go by NK. Yeah, Like what

515
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,920
Speaker 1: does that mean? I think it's like, yeah, career like

516
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: People's Republic. At the end, see different name, different name.

517
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: The knockout stage, they beat the Zijamins uh three to

518
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 1: two and beat Brazil two. Oh Brazil. They love that

519
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 1: soccer out there. Yeah, that's a tough as or as

520
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 1: soccer goes. That's a tough It's a tough country. Very

521
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like Germany is tough always too always,

522
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 1: but different like I would say, Germans are usually like

523
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 1: technically like insane and strong, very strong players don't take

524
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 1: no for an answer, so I'm like, and then the

525
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: brazil back down even when they're told to. Sounds very familiar.

526
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: We won't get into that. But the Brazilians they're always

527
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: like they were always like the prettiest when it came

528
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 1: to like athleticism and like Peley being able to you

529
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 1: know what I mean. They were just always the rat

530
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 1: athletic team. So yeah, game versus Germany was the closest

531
00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 1: call Brandy had the Brady. Brandy had an own goal.

532
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 1: Oh that's not that's not good, and was down two

533
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 1: to one. Brandy redeemed herself scores game tying goal. Gotta

534
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 1: do that got you? And then what do you got, Jackie?

535
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 1: I see you leaning in. What do you got? No,

536
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say she redeemed herself with that, that

537
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 1: that awesome goal when like the top of the net. Yeah,

538
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: folly action. Geez, that's that's the way to do it.

539
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: If you're gonna make a mistake, you gotta make up

540
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: for it. That's why she was. She was he the captain.

541
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 1: They were was there captains. Let me take a look

542
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 1: real quickly. She the way she she's like. I was

543
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: watching some interviews with her. She just sounds captainy. You know.

544
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 1: She's just a good, great teammate. I resent that Julian

545
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: read the team USA. So now I have to take

546
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 1: a shot at China. This is gonna be right. That's

547
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: called the old Jedi mind coach. Oh quick disclaimer, bear

548
00:29:55,840 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 1: with us, and the pronunciations is gonna be rough. Coach

549
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: Shuey King Jia. That's close enough, right, I thought that

550
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: was all right. Yeah, I should call it my agent, Don.

551
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 1: We should we should have got Don for this explanation.

552
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: That's right, Don. I'm sorry, should have took this more

553
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: time about this. This is a powerhouse team twelve to

554
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 1: two goal differential in the group stage, just like the US.

555
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: They dominated their way to the finals. They had beaten

556
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: the US twice that year in the lead up to

557
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 1: the World Cup. Some of the notable names the Strikers

558
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 1: soon when won the tournament's Golden Budde Awards, scored seven

559
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: goals play the finals. I mean unreal, Wang Luping, when Lelong,

560
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm doing it. Within It's British

561
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 1: or something. That was terrible Lou Ailing. Now I'm going

562
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 1: to American Zoo Li Hong, the midfielder. I thought he

563
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: did prettydamn good there. I was all right, Oh, why

564
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,240

566
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 1: Gal Hung? You should there, bro gal Hung. It's a

567
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 1: good point on it. She was a badass too, Galla Hung.

568
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 1: The goalie games I'm gal Hung. It'll be interesting to

569
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 1: get Brandy Chestain's uh you know what she thinks about Hung,

570
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:21,680
Speaker 1: because I guess previously she hung got her. Yeah, what

571
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: what game was that say? She hung her out to

572
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: dry literally and figure to I think that was in

573
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 1: It was either the Algarve Cup or the friendly that

574
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 1: we played with. Yeah, they had a p K. She

575
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 1: went wide, went wide, right, she's a really good goalie.

576
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 1: Path to the finals they won all three group stage games.

577
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 1: Started out with Sweden, which I think of it a

578
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:51,480
Speaker 1: good soccer country as well. Australia obviously great Ghana. These

579
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: are all you think of this tough soccer team Ghana.

580
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: You think of soccer and chocolate that they're known for

581
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: it chocolate, I think I think chocolate it's from Ghana. Oh,

582
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 1: coco maybe the cocoa bean. Yeah, knockout stage beat Russia

583
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 1: beat I mean someone had to someone to rush out smoke. Norway. Wow,

584
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: they messed Norway up. The US WNT versus China rivalry

585
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 1: played each other eighteen times in ninety seven, ninety eight,

586
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:28,400
Speaker 1: US one ten, nineteen ninety five World Cup Group C

587
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 1: matchup was three to three draw, during which China came

588
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 1: back from a three to one deficit. That's how annoying.

589
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 1: Tough team. They just don't they don't give up. Yeah,

590
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 1: they don't give up. Face each other in the third

591
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: place game, which US WNT one two zero ninety six

592
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: in Atlanta, the first time women's soccer was played in

593
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: the Olympics, US beat China two to one in the

594
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 1: gold medal game on the home soil, and then nineteen

595
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 1: ninety nine pre World Cup, China already beat the US

596
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 1: twice to one at the Algarve Cup and two to

597
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: one at friendly. I mean, in China's defense. Hew, it

598
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 1: starts to just sounded like a trader. No, I'm just

599
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 1: saying in China's defense. So you gotta look, you gotta

600
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 1: look at both sides. They all these games took place,

601
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 1: A lot of them took place on US soil, no

602
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:26,720
Speaker 1: home no home field. Yeah, you know, I think great

603
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 1: teams should be able to adapt. That's true the game.

604
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,360
Speaker 1: The lead up to the World Cup, the tensions between

605
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 1: the two countries were already high following the US mistaken

606
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 1: bombing of the Chinese embassy. The Chinese embassy in Belgrade.

607
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's like, I mean this, see this

608
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 1: doesn't happen in American matches, and it's never like, you know,

609
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 1: he bombed Oklahoma City. You know, it's like this is

610
00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 1: like actual tensions in in the world, A lot of tension.

611
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 1: Now they're doing that in the locker room. You think

612
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 1: the Chinese coaches like they attacked us, you know what

613
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 1: I mean, Like, dude, the bulletin board material, you never know,

614
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 1: this is bullets. Sometimes you need some bulletin board material.

615
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 1: The US mostly dominated this rivalry since nineteen ninety nine,

616
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 1: packed stadium, wild environment, ninety thousand fans, j LO performing.

617
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: Neither team could find the best or neither team could

618
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,320
Speaker 1: find the back of the net. Both teams had some

619
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 1: very close chances. But it ended in a zero zero

620
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: or should they should I say, a nil nil tie?

621
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 1: Oh crazy, that soccer can just end zero zero. Yeah,

622
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:42,800
Speaker 1: but they got pks and they got extra time. Not

623
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: in a World Cup final that they can't you know,

624
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: end at zero It doesn't get it, but it technically

625
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 1: ends as zero zero and you don't get the goals,

626
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 1: right right right? Wow? I mean this was It doesn't

627
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: get more dramatic than penalty kicks. No, but before penalty kicks,

628
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,400
Speaker 1: you have at time, which are two fifteen minute periods,

629
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 1: not sudden death, not first goals wins, right, it just

630
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 1: goes no golden goal. Both both scoreless, no golden rule.

631
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 1: That's a FIFA. I see you right there. It was

632
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: hot as hell this day in the Rose Bowl one

633
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:20,720
Speaker 1: hundred plus degrees in Los Angeles on July tenth, low humidity,

634
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:25,880
Speaker 1: though beautiful weather. Penalty kicks. US made five of the

635
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 1: pks five. China missed their third PK or should we

636
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 1: say scurry scurried that ball right out and that was

637
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 1: against Lou Ying. I feel bad for her. It's gotta hurt.

638
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: That's gotta hurt. You think she goes back to the

639
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 1: country like that's that's devastating to be, you know. I

640
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:51,799
Speaker 1: I'll put something in perspective. I it wasn't necessarily a uh,

641
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 1: you know, World Cup final, but you know, in a

642
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 1: frosh Soft championship game, on the last play, I went

643
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 1: back and was playing. I picked the ball and I

644
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 1: was going to stay up and the guy who I

645
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,400
Speaker 1: picked the ball from took the ball from me with

646
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 1: time time expiring and scored and they won, Oh my god,

647
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 1: scored and they won. It's on there somewhere on the

648
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 1: internet it was. It was pretty devastating. So I can

649
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:19,279
Speaker 1: only imagine how she felt with the World Cup. One

650
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: time in Naples, Florida, I bomb for a full weekend

651
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 1: and an old man came up to me and told

652
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,919
Speaker 1: me I wasn't funny. So I can relate. Fuck that guy,

653
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,319
Speaker 1: I can relate to that pain too. Yeah. I don't

654
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah. The things we remember, obviously the sports

655
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 1: bra moment, right that was like huge, iconic, iconic, the

656
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 1: penalty kicks, and the aftermath of the success for these

657
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:49,760
Speaker 1: women all throughout the country, all throughout everywhere in the world,

658
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 1: just getting all these little US American girls fired up,

659
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 1: making us huge, making us the biggest, baddest US women

660
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 1: soccer team team of all time. Let's go to the

664
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: this team. They were like, they call them ninety nine ers.

665
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 1: I don't like that one. Yeah, I think it's gotta

666
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,480
Speaker 1: be sports bar related. Yeah, but that could sound kinda

667
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 1: I know, dude saying that. Yeah, damn it, This climate

668
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,840
Speaker 1: that we're living in. We can't how many times we

669
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 1: could mention head coach Tony did Chico do Chico Chico's mustache?

670
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 1: It was a legendary's dash. Yeah, but that's also kind

671
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: of pervy, Yeah, is it not? Yeah? Talking about something

672
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 1: sounds good right now? What are we thinking? Any good

673
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 1: dude has a pretty narly stash? He does have a

674
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 1: porn stash. Burt Reynolds Kyler, what do we got? What

675
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 1: are you thinking? How many times we can say iconic?

676
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 1: Then we're just rubbing in our face. Jeez, we're really

677
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:08,600
Speaker 1: really we're really struggling with this one here. Any thoughts

678
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 1: over there? But the Peanut Gallery hit the amount of

679
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 1: times we can say suck it China? How about that?

680
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 1: I like that? Yeah, that could be fun. Three three

681
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 1: and a half, two and a half, two and a half.

682
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 1: We'll go to and a half that we can easily

683
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,919
Speaker 1: hit that. That seems very reasonable. Yeah, we'll see, should

684
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:30,839
Speaker 1: we two and a half. We'll see Because it all

685
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 1: we've said this about, you know, other win bets before,

686
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:40,800
Speaker 1: and never you know, sometimes the vibe of the interview

687
00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 1: is not there where you can just go out and

688
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:45,400
Speaker 1: say suck it China, but we'll try it. I got

689
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 1: to feel in the overs cashing with ease today two

00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,320

694
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 1: you on our podcast. Before let's get through some of

695
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 1: these accolades that Brandy has. I mean, she's clearly an icon.

696
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:16,480
Speaker 1: We've seen her on every sports magazine. We've seen her

697
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 1: on every late night show commercial, especially in our age

698
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: age group because we're you know, we're about thirty six.

699
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 1: This was a huge time of our life. You're an

700
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:30,800
Speaker 1: Olympic gold medalist, you're a World Cup gold medalist, you

701
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:35,320
Speaker 1: played twenty years almost twenty years professionally, and you're a

702
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 1: member of the California Hall of Fame, something that you know,

703
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 1: one day I wish, I hope I can get in.

704
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 1: Maybe probably not more of a Boston guy now, I guess.

705
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: But and you're on our wall, right, and you're on

706
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:50,720
Speaker 1: our wall. We had yeah on our wall, loud and proud.

707
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,839
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. You know, I have been in love

708
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 1: with soccer for forty five years, and it was you know,

709
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 1: quite this is a cliche obviously, but it was love

710
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 1: at first kick for me. I I signed up. We

711
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:09,920
Speaker 1: didn't have anything to do with soccer. It just came

712
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: to our neighborhood. My parents and I went down, signed up,

713
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 1: had no idea what it was, and literally I got

714
00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 1: my gear because then you didn't have to try out.

715
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 1: It was like you got put on a team. I

716
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 1: went to bed in it, I had my soccer ball,

717
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: went out to the first practice done. That was like

718
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: I knew I was doing this thing. I did other sports,

719
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 1: and I loved other sports. I love all sports. I

720
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:34,360
Speaker 1: actually thought I was going to play in the NFL

721
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 1: because that's all I saw on television. My dad watched it,

722
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 1: my grandparents watched it. My my godfather played for the

723
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:47,520
Speaker 1: Packers and the Rams back in the leather helmet days.

724
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,960
Speaker 1: And I love football. I just didn't know it was

725
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 1: going to be my football. Yeah. So yeah, So as

726
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 1: for coaching, you know, I just feel like there's you know,

727
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 1: the the game gives me such joy and it it

728
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 1: takes all the boxes for me, whether you know, whether

729
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 1: that's all the senses, whether that's the competition, whether that's

730
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 1: the challenge every day, whether it's the highs and the lows.

731
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I've had two ACL reconstructions, and I was

732
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: out college soccer for two and a half years. I

733
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 1: was on a World Cup team and a World Cup champion,

734
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: then cut from the team and away from the team

735
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 1: for four years and had to make my way back.

736
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 1: And so you know, I've had my position change. It's

737
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,880
Speaker 1: like if someone said, Okay, Julian, you're going to go

738
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 1: from you know, maybe it's not a stretch for you know,

739
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,960
Speaker 1: you could go from a wide receiver or a slot

740
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:46,360
Speaker 1: player to a dB or you know, or a safety.

741
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 1: You know, you would you could do that. You wouldn't

742
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,760
Speaker 1: think about doing that because that's not your primary position,

743
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 1: but maybe you could because you have a lot of

744
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:57,040
Speaker 1: tools that you used against them. And so for me,

745
00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: that was I kind of rea resurrected my career by

746
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:05,400
Speaker 1: playing now on the defensive side of things when I

747
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 1: started my career as an attacker. So I feel I

748
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 1: have a good well rounded perspective on, you know, what

749
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 1: it's like to be every player on a roster. I

750
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 1: feel like I have a good perspective on, you know,

751
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 1: playing on both sides of the ball. I love the

752
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 1: transition moments. You guys don't have a lot of transition

753
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:26,440
Speaker 1: moments in American football, but I love transition moments from

754
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 1: attacking to defending, defending to attacking, and I think in

755
00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:36,000
Speaker 1: those moments the most mentally capable are the teams and

756
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 1: players that will win games and be most successful. And

757
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:43,359
Speaker 1: so I love those moments the most. And I love

758
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,000
Speaker 1: the skills. I love the mastery. I love the poetry

759
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:48,520
Speaker 1: and the grace that comes along with the game, and

760
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:50,759
Speaker 1: I want to give that to our players. And it's

761
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,480
Speaker 1: not about winning at all costs. It's about winning with

762
00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:00,400
Speaker 1: the value of the game and the beauty of sport

763
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 1: and why the fans pay a lot of money that

764
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:07,000
Speaker 1: they worked really hard for and so I wanted deliver

765
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:12,759
Speaker 1: what they deserve. Wow, that's awesome. You feel the passion. Oh,

766
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,839
Speaker 1: that's that's the number one thing you always The number

767
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,840
Speaker 1: one thing that I always found with the best coaches

768
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 1: that I were around was passion. Yeah, you know, you

769
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 1: have to have that, and that's second to none. But uh,

770
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 1: you got to take us back, Brandy to nineteen ninety nine.

771
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:36,840
Speaker 1: What was it like for you, like before before the

772
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:41,360
Speaker 1: Games and the World Cup started, Like the narrative going in,

773
00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 1: you guys been battling with China, you lost to them,

774
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: you know previously, and the what is it the Arcata

775
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 1: or the the All Guard Cup, and you had, you know,

776
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:58,560
Speaker 1: you missed one of the pks against hung you know,

777
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 1: going into this, So like, what was your guys' mindset

778
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 1: going into this, Like were you guys You guys were

779
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 1: obviously one of the favorites, but being that target, you

780
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,800
Speaker 1: always have to have something in your mind, like to

781
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 1: not believe the hype. Like what was that message going

782
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 1: into this World Cup? Well, we had a lot of

783
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,400
Speaker 1: we had a lot of messaging that was floating around

784
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:27,240
Speaker 1: in the in you know, the ecosystem that was outside

785
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 1: of our team. And I'm sure you can appreciate this,

786
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:31,800
Speaker 1: and I think Sam for you too. It's like, you know,

787
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:33,799
Speaker 1: you're always going to have your critics, right, You're going

788
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 1: to have people who either don't believe, I don't know

789
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 1: what you're talking about. I've looked at YouTube comments and

790
00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 1: everyone likes me. Okay, sorry, So then you could just

791
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:47,719
Speaker 1: sit there idly quiet and very comfortable. No, So it's

792
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 1: you know, honestly, there was there was two messages that

793
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:57,799
Speaker 1: were going around around us, which we worked incredibly hard

794
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 1: to filter from the we needed versus the things that

795
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 1: were in existence. So number one was the future of

796
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 1: women's soccer as a whole globally. If the US didn't

797
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:15,480
Speaker 1: win this World Cup would basically just go. And that

798
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:19,719
Speaker 1: was because we pushed, you know, as we do here

799
00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:22,719
Speaker 1: in America, where we pushed the envelope. You know, we

800
00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:27,360
Speaker 1: say we we want big events. We watched Super Bowls

801
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:31,400
Speaker 1: in massive stadiums, and we believe that women's soccer deserved

802
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 1: that platform. This was the World Cup. It wasn't some small,

803
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,200
Speaker 1: you know, high school soccer tournament that was going to

804
00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 1: be played in the Northeast, which is what they wanted

805
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 1: to do. They wanted to put it in like college type,

806
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,960
Speaker 1: you know, small like Tufts University or you know, with

807
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 1: five to ten thousand seats, and our group of leaders said, no,

808
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:54,000
Speaker 1: we're not going to do that. And so they pushed

809
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,919
Speaker 1: for playing in the meadowlands and playing at the Rose

810
00:45:56,960 --> 00:46:00,120
Speaker 1: Bowl and playing in all the stadiums in between. And

811
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 1: so with that came the responsibility of filling those seats,

812
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,440
Speaker 1: and it was you know, it's over a million seats

813
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,440
Speaker 1: that you had to fill over the course of the tournament,

814
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:16,800
Speaker 1: and so that message was looming large, dark clouds and

815
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 1: Darth Vader kind of like the future of women's soccer,

816
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: you know, kind of thing, and so there was a

817
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:26,319
Speaker 1: lot of pressure in that way. But to I think

818
00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:29,960
Speaker 1: another message, which was, you know, we knew what we

819
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:33,279
Speaker 1: could control, We knew the type of team we had.

820
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:38,360
Speaker 1: We we have proven before that we have championship pedigree

821
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 1: and we understand how to win, and so you know,

822
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:43,960
Speaker 1: we had that on our side. So we had that

823
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:47,439
Speaker 1: great messaging. And then we had this responsibility to your

824
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 1: daughter so that when she was going to be born

825
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 1: some twenty something years later, that she would have a

826
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:59,600
Speaker 1: place that would be of equal access for her to play.

827
00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:03,120
Speaker 1: And so you know, that was a lot and so

828
00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 1: you know, when we went through that tournament, there was

829
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:11,399
Speaker 1: a lot of interesting twists and turns along the way

830
00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:15,880
Speaker 1: that made it very exciting. That's really crazy and cool

831
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:18,560
Speaker 1: and also really fucked up that you have to you

832
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,919
Speaker 1: have this pressure on you for your whole gender. Yeah.

833
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,319
Speaker 1: I think about like when I started stand up, i'd

834
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:25,800
Speaker 1: no female headliners, and there'd be some of these like

835
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:28,439
Speaker 1: old school bookers who were like, oh, if they don't

836
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:30,800
Speaker 1: do well, like that's it for women for a few months,

837
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,440
Speaker 1: you know. So that's really messed up that you had

838
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,120
Speaker 1: this kind of pressure on you. But it's pretty damn

839
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 1: cool that you delivered. I mean, you have all these

840
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:40,920
Speaker 1: great players on this team, all these you know, big names,

841
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 1: but you seem tight. Was ego not an issue at

842
00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:48,840
Speaker 1: all for this team, you know, I feel like everybody

843
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:54,239
Speaker 1: had their you know, you have to bring that to

844
00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 1: the field, right because when you show up against the

845
00:47:56,520 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 1: best in the world, you have to believe that you're enough.

846
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:03,960
Speaker 1: You're not just good, you're great enough to do this. So,

847
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:06,840
Speaker 1: you know, we had that. But the beauty of this

848
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:10,560
Speaker 1: team and the leadership in Tony de Chico and our

849
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:16,279
Speaker 1: captains Carlo Oberbek and Julie Foudy, and our leaders that

850
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:20,240
Speaker 1: didn't wear the captains on their you know, on their armband,

851
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:25,080
Speaker 1: were so in tune with the objective, and the objective

852
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:28,680
Speaker 1: was to win and to be successful in winning, we

853
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:33,160
Speaker 1: had everybody had to be embraced. Everybody's role was important.

854
00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:36,160
Speaker 1: Didn't matter if you played ninety minutes, half a game,

855
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:39,360
Speaker 1: ten minutes at the end. You never came off the bench.

856
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:43,960
Speaker 1: Everybody contributed to the outcome. And I believe because we

857
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:48,800
Speaker 1: had this, there was a saying called wholesome discontent. At practice,

858
00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:53,280
Speaker 1: Julie Foudy and I would be having a WWE match

859
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:55,399
Speaker 1: going on. The ball could be on the other side

860
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:58,759
Speaker 1: of the four before and we would be wrestling, and

861
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,840
Speaker 1: then the practice would end and we'd be laughing, and

862
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 1: we'd be like literally like arm in arm and laughing

863
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:08,000
Speaker 1: off the field. So we had a really great respect

864
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:10,640
Speaker 1: for each other. We had a trust in one another.

865
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:13,760
Speaker 1: We knew that we were all there for the same

866
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:18,160
Speaker 1: purpose and the same objective. And I will say that

867
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:21,080
Speaker 1: it was a different time Sam. You know, there was

868
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:24,319
Speaker 1: no social media there. You know, it was barely at

869
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,760
Speaker 1: the time when people were starting to use cell phones

870
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:29,799
Speaker 1: that weren't like you didn't have to carry it over

871
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:33,239
Speaker 1: your shoulder and like a brick. And so, you know,

872
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 1: we got to be present a lot, We got to

873
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:38,839
Speaker 1: be with each other, and there was not as many

874
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:45,040
Speaker 1: external factors that could derail anybody. You know, I think

875
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:48,239
Speaker 1: this is the this is the greatest challenge now. It's

876
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:51,400
Speaker 1: that everybody is camera ready, everybody is in the moment

877
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,360
Speaker 1: I'm going to make a deal, and you know, The

878
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:56,759
Speaker 1: way I see it is if you do your job

879
00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:59,839
Speaker 1: and you do it in a way that shows your

880
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:04,720
Speaker 1: your care and the respect and the responsibility to your team,

881
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:10,120
Speaker 1: the fans, the game, things will come your way. Things

882
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:11,800
Speaker 1: will come your way. So I think we had a

883
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 1: really special time and a very special group. You guys,

884
00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:21,120
Speaker 1: prepare to play in front of ninety plus thousand, how

885
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:22,680
Speaker 1: do you do that? We didn't really know how to

886
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:25,600
Speaker 1: do that. I mean, that was that's an interesting comment,

887
00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:28,400
Speaker 1: because when you don't get to play in front of

888
00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:32,280
Speaker 1: those big crowds, it's like, it's really it is really interesting.

889
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:35,560
Speaker 1: How to prepare for that? How did you prepare for it?

890
00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 1: We were at we trained in the Orlando area and

891
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:45,400
Speaker 1: we would go over to the Orange Bowl and I

892
00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:48,360
Speaker 1: think it was the Orange Bowl, and we'd have a

893
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 1: practice every now and again and our coach Tony would

894
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:55,160
Speaker 1: make them put on just this most atrocious noise so

895
00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:59,000
Speaker 1: you couldn't hear anything, and it was just like oppressive.

896
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:03,640
Speaker 1: And you know, you're playing in degree ninety ninety five

897
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,120
Speaker 1: degree heat with like almost one hundred percent humidity and

898
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:10,319
Speaker 1: you're just suffering, right, You're like, it's the worst, it's

899
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:12,279
Speaker 1: the worst. It's the best of the worst, right, it's

900
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:17,880
Speaker 1: the best opportunity, but you're you're getting like brutalized by

901
00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 1: noise and heat, and you're you're being challenged by the

902
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:23,400
Speaker 1: best players in the world. I think that's the thing

903
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,640
Speaker 1: we had in our favor. If there's anything I could

904
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:32,279
Speaker 1: say about what we got to experience is that we

905
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:35,680
Speaker 1: played against each other every way, and it's such a

906
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:43,320
Speaker 1: positively competitive environment that every other team seemed like it

907
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:47,040
Speaker 1: was going to be a relief to play Brazil, even

908
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:50,600
Speaker 1: though it wasn't or China or Germany, because we just

909
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:54,160
Speaker 1: we just work the hell out of each other every

910
00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:57,680
Speaker 1: single day. Iron Sharpen's Iron. I mean I can remember

911
00:51:57,880 --> 00:52:02,000
Speaker 1: vividly anytime we would get ready to play in arrow

912
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:08,080
Speaker 1: Ahead or Seattle, these significantly louder stadiums that were built

913
00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:11,120
Speaker 1: for it, we did the same exact thing. Coach Belichick

914
00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:13,320
Speaker 1: would throw on the noise. We'd have to work on

915
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:17,839
Speaker 1: our nonverbal communication. You know. If it was a time

916
00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 1: where we were playing in Miami and it was what

917
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 1: thirty degrees in Foxborough, turned he put us in the

918
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:27,680
Speaker 1: bubble and he would turn up the heat as high

919
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:30,640
Speaker 1: as hot as he could, and then he would spray

920
00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:33,000
Speaker 1: the walls down, so we would try to get that humidity,

921
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:38,359
Speaker 1: making practice way harder than what you did for the game.

922
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:42,239
Speaker 1: So that's awesome. So I want to ask, you know,

923
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:45,880
Speaker 1: Bill Clinton was in the crowd. How crazy is that?

924
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:49,800
Speaker 1: Playing for the president? It is remarkable the amount of

925
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,759
Speaker 1: people that came to that game, ninety thousand plus and

926
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:57,520
Speaker 1: the president, Miss Hillary Clinton and their daughter Chelsea were

927
00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:00,400
Speaker 1: there and we didn't know that before. So that was

928
00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:04,320
Speaker 1: a big surprise. And just as it was a surprise

929
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:06,840
Speaker 1: to have Oursenio Hall come into the locker room. It

930
00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:11,759
Speaker 1: was you know, interesting to meet the president and it

931
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:14,880
Speaker 1: was all on the on the up and up pictures

932
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:18,880
Speaker 1: and just some fun and just some gratitude about you know,

933
00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:23,800
Speaker 1: from their perspective of what we gave to the country

934
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:27,359
Speaker 1: in terms of the excitement and the ability to cheer

935
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:30,279
Speaker 1: on something but you know, something bigger than ourselves and

936
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:34,759
Speaker 1: for us to think, holy cow, this is really way

937
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 1: bigger than we ever thought possible. So it was a

938
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:42,440
Speaker 1: hell of an afternoon. So you guys have played this

939
00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:46,440
Speaker 1: Chinese team a few times. I believe your guys record.

940
00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:48,799
Speaker 1: You guys played eighteen times. You had you guys had

941
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:52,080
Speaker 1: ten wins against them, guys went back and forth. They

942
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 1: were pretty good. What were their strengths and how how

943
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:57,960
Speaker 1: what was the game plan going into the game when

944
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:00,960
Speaker 1: when you play a team that you're pretty familiar with

945
00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:03,360
Speaker 1: because you guys played them a bunch, you know, was

946
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:05,840
Speaker 1: there a wrinkle that you guys threw in there, or

947
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:07,960
Speaker 1: was there something different that you guys were going to do,

948
00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 1: or was it just like we're gonna beat them because

949
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:17,279
Speaker 1: we're just better. Well, you know what, I would like

950
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:19,440
Speaker 1: to say that we had some grand scheme, but I

951
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:24,680
Speaker 1: don't really think there was anything that was so different

952
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:27,000
Speaker 1: from what we did. I think it was we're going

953
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,200
Speaker 1: to rely on the things we can control, as you

954
00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:32,120
Speaker 1: can understand. But I think, you know, being in this

955
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:36,320
Speaker 1: massive environment unlike any other World Cup that existed, I

956
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 1: feel like we had a slight advantage in two ways. One,

957
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:41,360
Speaker 1: it was a home game. It was in the US

958
00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:43,600
Speaker 1: and you know at the Rose Bowl, which we know

959
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:48,240
Speaker 1: is like historically where all these incredible big games happened.

960
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:50,719
Speaker 1: So we were, you know, we we kind of had

961
00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:54,520
Speaker 1: this home town feel in the Sea of ninety thousand.

962
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:58,000
Speaker 1: But I think also on the mental side of things

963
00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:01,080
Speaker 1: that you know, we knew that we could on a

964
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:04,640
Speaker 1: day like today just come out and impose our will

965
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:08,320
Speaker 1: upon them. But the beauty and the grace of China,

966
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 1: and you ask, you know what were they good at?

967
00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:14,439
Speaker 1: Incredibly technical and small spaces and they're off the ball

968
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:18,440
Speaker 1: movement and you could probably understand this from a basketball perspective.

969
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:21,239
Speaker 1: It's like it it's like the Golden State Warriors, right,

970
00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:25,160
Speaker 1: they just move off the ball so well, it's like

971
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:27,880
Speaker 1: it's hard to keep track of where they are. And

972
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:32,920
Speaker 1: so that was exhausting mentally. So it was a good

973
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:35,560
Speaker 1: thing that, you know, mental focus and fortitude was a

974
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:39,320
Speaker 1: part of probably our skill set that set us apart.

975
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:44,000
Speaker 1: And both of the teams bent a lot, and we had,

976
00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,800
Speaker 1: you know, some interesting moments that I'd be really happy

977
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:50,120
Speaker 1: to share with you during that game that really pushed

978
00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:52,920
Speaker 1: us to the limit and literally almost put us to

979
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:56,000
Speaker 1: the breaking point, but we just we just wouldn't break,

980
00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:59,320
Speaker 1: and neither would they in regulation. And so that's I

981
00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:02,400
Speaker 1: think what made the penalty kick situation so exciting was

982
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:05,759
Speaker 1: that it was a hell of an intense game from

983
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:09,200
Speaker 1: the first whistle to the one hundred and twentieth plus minute.

984
00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:13,800
Speaker 1: In one hundred plus degrees and it was just it

985
00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:16,800
Speaker 1: was not for the week, that's for sure. Yeah, I

986
00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:19,560
Speaker 1: mean I just off the top of my head, you know,

987
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:23,080
Speaker 1: Lily had that header that like you're like, oh shit,

988
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:26,160
Speaker 1: we're you know, we almost got that. And then you

989
00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:28,720
Speaker 1: had that slide tackle and it was the eighty ninth

990
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 1: where they were trying to get it out in the

991
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:33,160
Speaker 1: middle of the field and you slid tackle and got

992
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:36,960
Speaker 1: it out. Like there was just so many almost breaking points.

993
00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:38,400
Speaker 1: What were some of the ones that you said you

994
00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 1: want to discuss. Yeah, I think the Christine Lily one

995
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,000
Speaker 1: is probably the most impactful in a story that I

996
00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:47,600
Speaker 1: think everybody can really embrace, whether that's in sports or

997
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:50,640
Speaker 1: in their regular life. And you know, we all get

998
00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:53,840
Speaker 1: bogged down with details, right, and we know that the

999
00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:56,520
Speaker 1: devil's in the details. If you don't do the details right,

1000
00:56:56,600 --> 00:57:00,880
Speaker 1: the big picture goes away. And so Christine is the

1001
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:05,800
Speaker 1: cal Ripken of women's soccer or sports. Really. She's played

1002
00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:09,560
Speaker 1: more international games where she's right there in Boston. So

1003
00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:14,399
Speaker 1: shout out to my girl, Christine Lilly. Let's go. She's Yeah,

1004
00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 1: she's played a three hundred and fifty four times for

1005
00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:21,919
Speaker 1: the US national team, and at that point. Her job

1006
00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:25,400
Speaker 1: was to stand inside the near post to protect that

1007
00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:29,320
Speaker 1: area so Briana Scurry our goalkeeper could on corner kicks.

1008
00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 1: You know, I Bry's like a predator. The ball comes

1009
00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:36,920
Speaker 1: in there and she's going to just gobble it up. Right.

1010
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,800
Speaker 1: There's no one who's better at getting the ball out

1011
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:43,240
Speaker 1: of the air than Brian was. And so in what

1012
00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:45,720
Speaker 1: was called golden goal at the time, which meant if

1013
00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 1: anybody scored, the game would be over in the overtime.

1014
00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:52,360
Speaker 1: Back then, China had a corner kick and they played

1015
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:55,400
Speaker 1: the ball to the far post and their player out

1016
00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,480
Speaker 1: jumped ours and headed the ball back. And you see

1017
00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:01,120
Speaker 1: Briana Scurry just die as far as she could, and

1018
00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 1: she had super long arms and really big hands and

1019
00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:09,200
Speaker 1: was exceptional, and the ball just literally went right past

1020
00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:11,960
Speaker 1: her fingertips. And there's Christine Lily jumping up to head

1021
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,400
Speaker 1: the ball out. And I get chills thinking about it,

1022
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:18,400
Speaker 1: because you know, this is a player that, again has

1023
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:22,880
Speaker 1: more experience than anybody in the world could have easily said.

1024
00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:24,919
Speaker 1: You know what, I've never had to make a play

1025
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:27,800
Speaker 1: in this position in practice or in a game before.

1026
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:31,120
Speaker 1: And I see some danger in an area that I'm

1027
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:34,480
Speaker 1: big I should go out there. But she respected and

1028
00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:37,680
Speaker 1: honored her role and the responsibility of being in that

1029
00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:40,480
Speaker 1: position even though she's never made a play. And so

1030
00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:43,920
Speaker 1: because of that, the game went on. You know, she

1031
00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:47,960
Speaker 1: headed it, I cleared it. You know, people kind of

1032
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:51,560
Speaker 1: gave an ooh, and then the game just went fast forward.

1033
00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:58,920
Speaker 1: But without that relationship of understanding to the details, we

1034
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,200
Speaker 1: wouldn't be having this conver station because we wouldn't have

1035
00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:04,480
Speaker 1: won the championship. And so I think that's one of

1036
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:07,280
Speaker 1: the most phenomenal things that I've seen. And it seems

1037
00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:11,360
Speaker 1: so subtle, and it seems so mundane, and I think

1038
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:13,600
Speaker 1: a lot of people overlook the details because they're like,

1039
00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:17,120
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter, But they matter more than anything, and

1040
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:20,360
Speaker 1: Christine Lilly proved it that day. Big time players make

1041
00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:24,760
Speaker 1: big time plays and big time situations. And when you

1042
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:27,720
Speaker 1: watch this game, like you said, you saw it from

1043
00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:34,120
Speaker 1: multiple different players throughout the game. Uh, you know, that's

1044
00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:36,480
Speaker 1: pretty insane to hear that they never really practiced, that

1045
00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:40,480
Speaker 1: she's never had that play. But to have that what

1046
00:59:40,680 --> 00:59:44,280
Speaker 1: is it savviness or or that that ability to do

1047
00:59:44,440 --> 00:59:47,640
Speaker 1: your job, I mean, and to be in the right play,

1048
00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:51,520
Speaker 1: to be in the but that's probably where, like Brandy says,

1049
00:59:51,520 --> 00:59:53,440
Speaker 1: she that's probably that's where she was coached to be.

1050
00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:55,640
Speaker 1: It's not the sexy spot to be where you want

1051
00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:58,000
Speaker 1: to be on there, but she was there and she

1052
00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:02,720
Speaker 1: and she made a big time play. Any crazy plays

1053
01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:06,200
Speaker 1: that like no one really talks about, you know, yeah,

1054
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:09,160
Speaker 1: I mean I think one thing was you know, Michelle Akres,

1055
01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:14,120
Speaker 1: she is like she's a legend. She is she has

1056
01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:17,240
Speaker 1: been a force in women's soccer right since the beginning

1057
01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:20,880
Speaker 1: and since the first international game in the mid eighties.

1058
01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:24,960
Speaker 1: And you know, here she is. She's battling some personal

1059
01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:29,200
Speaker 1: issues physically, and you know, she just would give every

1060
01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:33,680
Speaker 1: single ounce of her being to just dominate the field.

1061
01:00:33,720 --> 01:00:35,400
Speaker 1: That is super big. I mean, you guys play on

1062
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:39,240
Speaker 1: one hundred yard field by fifty yards and our field

1063
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:42,280
Speaker 1: is seventy five by one hundred and twenty and it's monstrous.

1064
01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:47,600
Speaker 1: And she just worked her tail off every game and

1065
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:52,360
Speaker 1: she threw herself into every tackle and she gets you know,

1066
01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:56,200
Speaker 1: she puts herself in harm's way to make plays all

1067
01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:59,320
Speaker 1: the time. And that ended up happening in this game

1068
01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:02,000
Speaker 1: where she and Brianna came together and she gets knocked

1069
01:01:02,040 --> 01:01:05,880
Speaker 1: out of the game and that that could be a

1070
01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:10,520
Speaker 1: turning point. And I think most teams suffer failure in

1071
01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:14,360
Speaker 1: that moment because whether it's a mental letdown or it's

1072
01:01:14,560 --> 01:01:18,320
Speaker 1: just you just don't have the players to fulfill the

1073
01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:20,680
Speaker 1: role anymore. Right, you got you got this legend in

1074
01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:23,040
Speaker 1: this position, and I think that was the depth of

1075
01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:27,600
Speaker 1: the women's national team is testament to its success. I

1076
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:30,960
Speaker 1: think the mentality of you know, here we are, we

1077
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:32,920
Speaker 1: got our backs up against the wall, you know, in

1078
01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:36,560
Speaker 1: the game against China, who undoubtedly is you know, one

1079
01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:38,800
Speaker 1: of the best, inviting to be the best in the world,

1080
01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:41,120
Speaker 1: and now we're going to have to do it without

1081
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:44,720
Speaker 1: Michelle And so I think the strength of the team

1082
01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:50,440
Speaker 1: was it's brilliance and its belief in each other. And

1083
01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:53,320
Speaker 1: you know, you do your job and half of somebody else's.

1084
01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:55,320
Speaker 1: That's how you have to do it every day. You

1085
01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:58,480
Speaker 1: don't just show up and do the smallest amount possible.

1086
01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:01,520
Speaker 1: You have to do your job to the most robust

1087
01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:06,000
Speaker 1: potential you can. And then you have to get outside

1088
01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:08,800
Speaker 1: of your own sphere and eke into your teammates around

1089
01:02:08,880 --> 01:02:11,320
Speaker 1: you and how can you help them be their best too?

1090
01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:13,840
Speaker 1: So I think that was a turning point that I

1091
01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:15,720
Speaker 1: think other people may have looked at it and said, oh,

1092
01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 1: that's that's going to be some severe trouble. But this

1093
01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:22,480
Speaker 1: team just persevered and that was a moment I think

1094
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:24,840
Speaker 1: we could all be really proud of. Well we've talked

1095
01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:27,600
Speaker 1: about it before, you know, earlier, but I mean the

1096
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:30,120
Speaker 1: shape you guys have to be in for a game

1097
01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:32,880
Speaker 1: like this. How gast were you when the clock hits

1098
01:02:32,920 --> 01:02:36,480
Speaker 1: one twenty and where you're like, holy shit, Like were

1099
01:02:36,520 --> 01:02:39,480
Speaker 1: you amped up for the penalty kicks where you're like, ah,

1100
01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:41,840
Speaker 1: this is how are we going to pull this one out?

1101
01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:45,560
Speaker 1: What were you thinking? Yeah? I think, honestly, I think

1102
01:02:45,600 --> 01:02:48,000
Speaker 1: a little bit of both. Yeah, you know, I think

1103
01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:52,600
Speaker 1: you're physically drained. It's like you have no fluid left

1104
01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:55,240
Speaker 1: in your body. You're just like, you know, you're just

1105
01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:59,960
Speaker 1: you can't take enough in, right, So you're gulping down

1106
01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:02,320
Speaker 1: on water and electroly likes, and you're you got an

1107
01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:04,720
Speaker 1: ice towel on your head and you have someone shaking

1108
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:07,479
Speaker 1: your legs and rubbing, rubbing them because you're just gonna

1109
01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:09,760
Speaker 1: You're on the verge of getting a cramp, like every

1110
01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:12,000
Speaker 1: time you move, And so I think there was a

1111
01:03:12,080 --> 01:03:14,880
Speaker 1: little bit of concern about that, but I think there

1112
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:18,880
Speaker 1: was also this great understanding that we've got the best

1113
01:03:18,920 --> 01:03:23,520
Speaker 1: goalkeeper in the world, and you know, we we have practiced,

1114
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:29,280
Speaker 1: and we have we have imagined this moment many times over.

1115
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:31,320
Speaker 1: This wasn't going to be the first time we looked

1116
01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:33,919
Speaker 1: at this, and we were as prepared as we could

1117
01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:36,960
Speaker 1: ever be. And the beauty of you know, what I

1118
01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:42,439
Speaker 1: love about the sports and and these opportunities is they're

1119
01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:45,000
Speaker 1: like tests in school. And I wish I had this

1120
01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:48,320
Speaker 1: mentality when Night was a younger person in education, because

1121
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:50,880
Speaker 1: if I had, I probably would have got better grades.

1122
01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:54,360
Speaker 1: But you know, tests are just an opportunity to see

1123
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:59,000
Speaker 1: what you know, right, just to put into practice what

1124
01:03:59,160 --> 01:04:01,760
Speaker 1: you've been doing every day. And so we were really

1125
01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:04,080
Speaker 1: excited about this opportunity, to be honest with you, so

1126
01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:07,360
Speaker 1: we were we were we were high in the We're excited,

1127
01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:10,880
Speaker 1: and we were like, holy cow, that was exhausting, and

1128
01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:14,400
Speaker 1: we knew that, you know, to perform at our best,

1129
01:04:14,520 --> 01:04:17,960
Speaker 1: we had to have this. Samuel, really enjoy this term.

1130
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:19,560
Speaker 1: I'm sure you're going to use at some point in

1131
01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:23,760
Speaker 1: your future, maybe optimal arousal. We needed optimal arousal I

1132
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:25,800
Speaker 1: didn't jump on when you said fluids before. I want

1133
01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:32,160
Speaker 1: that on the record, all right, I'm not that immature. Yeah,

1134
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:34,120
Speaker 1: so you need optimal arousal right, you need to be

1135
01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:37,560
Speaker 1: up enough but not too high and not you know,

1136
01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:40,360
Speaker 1: tamp down too much that you don't really care. So

1137
01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:43,680
Speaker 1: we were just finding that that perfect spot to just

1138
01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:46,200
Speaker 1: to be ready to do what we needed to do. Yeah,

1139
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:50,640
Speaker 1: and what people don't realize, you know, and I it's different,

1140
01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:53,600
Speaker 1: but it's it's still you know, playing in the super

1141
01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:57,560
Speaker 1: Bowl like this, like the World Cup final. It's not

1142
01:04:57,800 --> 01:05:03,680
Speaker 1: just the exhaustion from running, it's the lead up, the media,

1143
01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:08,120
Speaker 1: the emotional exhaustion that you have, Like I can only

1144
01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:11,400
Speaker 1: imagine at this point, Like I remember anytime we played

1145
01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 1: in the super Bowl. After the game, you're just so

1146
01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:18,040
Speaker 1: spent because you're going that much harder. There's no next

1147
01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:21,720
Speaker 1: game in you know, so called whatever, there's no next game.

1148
01:05:22,080 --> 01:05:25,280
Speaker 1: You've been dealing with a bunch of outside noise for

1149
01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 1: like the last whatever many days weeks going in leading

1150
01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:33,320
Speaker 1: into this, and then you know, with the physical exhaustion,

1151
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:36,480
Speaker 1: it's just I couldn't imagine having to go out there,

1152
01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:39,600
Speaker 1: take a second and then all of a sudden go

1153
01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:42,960
Speaker 1: out and have to focus up and have that optimal

1154
01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:47,520
Speaker 1: arousal level mindedness to go in and make these peaks.

1155
01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:51,480
Speaker 1: The save by Scurry, how big was that? I mean,

1156
01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:53,640
Speaker 1: did you guys know one was she was gonna get one?

1157
01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:56,680
Speaker 1: You knew she was gonna get one. You know, Brian

1158
01:05:56,800 --> 01:06:00,560
Speaker 1: is such an incredible competitor. And like I said already,

1159
01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:06,560
Speaker 1: you know, just her physical capacity was incredible. She just

1160
01:06:06,800 --> 01:06:10,360
Speaker 1: was long and just had the spring in her legs

1161
01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:15,440
Speaker 1: to just explode to the ball. And you know, and

1162
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:18,720
Speaker 1: and she just has this look every now and again

1163
01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:20,240
Speaker 1: in her eye and you're like, oh, I am not

1164
01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:23,320
Speaker 1: messing with that lady like that. She means business. So

1165
01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:27,760
Speaker 1: you know, she she had she had a tough job because,

1166
01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:30,280
Speaker 1: as we know, the kicker, it's really a kicker's game

1167
01:06:30,320 --> 01:06:33,000
Speaker 1: to win or lose. It's not a goalkeeper's game to

1168
01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:35,560
Speaker 1: win or lose because the likelihood of making a save

1169
01:06:35,720 --> 01:06:40,360
Speaker 1: is fairly low. Players will miss the goal more than

1170
01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:45,080
Speaker 1: a goalkeeper will save save the ball. So so when

1171
01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:49,600
Speaker 1: she did that, you know, obviously that was just that

1172
01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:52,919
Speaker 1: solidified the fact that we would win the World Cup,

1173
01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:56,960
Speaker 1: and I think it eased everybody's mind. The fourth and

1174
01:06:57,040 --> 01:07:01,120
Speaker 1: fifth kicker. Especially for me. I knew that as I

1175
01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:03,400
Speaker 1: walked up, even though I had missed one earlier, as

1176
01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:08,040
Speaker 1: you said, against Gauhang and China in March of that year.

1177
01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:13,520
Speaker 1: You know, the you don't experience this for yourself in football,

1178
01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:16,440
Speaker 1: but if you asked Tom Brady maybe he would give

1179
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:19,520
Speaker 1: a different answer. You know. Tony de Chico came up

1180
01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:21,160
Speaker 1: to me before we went out to the middle of

1181
01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:25,400
Speaker 1: the field to kick these these five penalty kicks, and

1182
01:07:25,520 --> 01:07:28,000
Speaker 1: he said, hey, you're going to take a kick, and

1183
01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:30,080
Speaker 1: I said, yep, I already talked to the assistant coach,

1184
01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:34,920
Speaker 1: Lauren greg and we discussed it, and I'm ready. In

1185
01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:37,880
Speaker 1: the run of play, I would have taken that penalty

1186
01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:40,160
Speaker 1: kick for our team anyway. So I felt like it

1187
01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:42,800
Speaker 1: was kind of an odd question. But you know, in

1188
01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:46,720
Speaker 1: pressure sometimes people get a little nervous, so they maybe

1189
01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:49,240
Speaker 1: they say things that they're not really thinking about or whatever.

1190
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:51,040
Speaker 1: And so I just said, yep, I'm ready to go,

1191
01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:52,880
Speaker 1: and he goes, okay, good, You're going to take it

1192
01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:54,640
Speaker 1: with your left foot, and then he just like took

1193
01:07:54,760 --> 01:07:57,720
Speaker 1: off like the road runner, like dust behind him. And

1194
01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:00,960
Speaker 1: I say that because I'd never taking a penalty with

1195
01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:05,240
Speaker 1: my left foot before in a game. And so I mean,

1196
01:08:05,280 --> 01:08:06,920
Speaker 1: I guess if you asked Tom Brady to throw all

1197
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:09,600
Speaker 1: the passes with his left hand in the Super Bowl,

1198
01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:12,040
Speaker 1: I wonder if you'd say yes, I don't know, or

1199
01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:15,120
Speaker 1: maybe one pass. Maybe would you ask Steph Curry to

1200
01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:19,120
Speaker 1: take a game winning free throw? Lefty didn't? Didn't. It's weird.

1201
01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:22,160
Speaker 1: Larry Bird didn't. He he would do it. He played

1202
01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:25,160
Speaker 1: left handed one time, but that was more like him

1203
01:08:25,280 --> 01:08:28,080
Speaker 1: just shit talking. That was more Bird. It was like

1204
01:08:28,120 --> 01:08:30,280
Speaker 1: a regular season game. It wasn't the World Cup final

1205
01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:33,800
Speaker 1: and you have to seal it. I mean that's when

1206
01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:35,200
Speaker 1: he said that. Were you like, what the fuck are

1207
01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:39,719
Speaker 1: you doing to me? Well, like you know to your question. Initially,

1208
01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:42,960
Speaker 1: it was just there was so much like that exhaustion

1209
01:08:43,720 --> 01:08:46,439
Speaker 1: that there was not enough room to be thinking about

1210
01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 1: why was this happening. It was just it was just

1211
01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:53,320
Speaker 1: information trained. It was just information and just going to

1212
01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:55,400
Speaker 1: go out and do it. And I mean I've done

1213
01:08:55,400 --> 01:08:59,320
Speaker 1: it many, many, many thousands of times before, maybe hundreds

1214
01:08:59,360 --> 01:09:02,200
Speaker 1: of thousands of times in training, but just not in

1215
01:09:02,320 --> 01:09:06,080
Speaker 1: the final or in a game. So you know, when

1216
01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:08,360
Speaker 1: I when I knew in that moment, and I believe

1217
01:09:08,400 --> 01:09:13,639
Speaker 1: this is where sports is our greatest our greatest asset

1218
01:09:13,720 --> 01:09:18,719
Speaker 1: for young people in teaching them self awareness and teaching

1219
01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:22,920
Speaker 1: them self esteem and confidence and sometimes things aren't going

1220
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:25,639
Speaker 1: to go your way, but it's okay, and that there's

1221
01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:27,120
Speaker 1: going to be people who are going to have your

1222
01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:29,280
Speaker 1: back and you know you got to get up and

1223
01:09:29,360 --> 01:09:33,960
Speaker 1: try again. Is this trust right? So Tony brought me

1224
01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:36,040
Speaker 1: back to the national team after I was off the

1225
01:09:36,120 --> 01:09:38,600
Speaker 1: team for four years, and he put me in the

1226
01:09:38,680 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 1: position of the left back, which is the left defender.

1227
01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:45,320
Speaker 1: And I never played defender in my career, so I

1228
01:09:45,439 --> 01:09:48,920
Speaker 1: was only a goal scorer. I was purely wired to

1229
01:09:49,040 --> 01:09:51,479
Speaker 1: score goals and to be competitive in front of the net.

1230
01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:53,760
Speaker 1: And he said, we want to change the way we

1231
01:09:53,840 --> 01:09:57,080
Speaker 1: do things and we want your skill set of being

1232
01:09:57,160 --> 01:09:59,120
Speaker 1: comfortable and confident on the ball in the back of

1233
01:09:59,200 --> 01:10:03,360
Speaker 1: our field. And so in that moment, I had a

1234
01:10:03,640 --> 01:10:06,760
Speaker 1: decision to make, which was say yes or be too

1235
01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:09,000
Speaker 1: prideful and say hey, I'm a forward. You need me

1236
01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:11,560
Speaker 1: as a forward. And I think because I took on

1237
01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:16,599
Speaker 1: the opportunity to kind of resurrect my career and play

1238
01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:19,639
Speaker 1: a defender, I trusted when he said to me, Hey,

1239
01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:22,000
Speaker 1: I want you to do this, and and so I

1240
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:24,519
Speaker 1: feel like these are the kinds of lessons we learned

1241
01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:26,479
Speaker 1: in sports, and I've been learning them since I was

1242
01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:29,680
Speaker 1: a little kid, and sometimes the hard way, the very

1243
01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:31,960
Speaker 1: hard way. But you know, I think in that moment,

1244
01:10:32,280 --> 01:10:35,040
Speaker 1: I felt really confident and comfortable that he knew what

1245
01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:41,479
Speaker 1: the right thing was and I just had to execute. Man,

1246
01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:44,360
Speaker 1: I just get chills things like I do a lot

1247
01:10:44,400 --> 01:10:45,800
Speaker 1: of we do a lot of research for a lot

1248
01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:48,320
Speaker 1: of these preps for you know, all our interviews, and

1249
01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:51,400
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. I just won't hit me. You know,

1250
01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:53,160
Speaker 1: I almost had to. I had to leave the room.

1251
01:10:53,160 --> 01:10:55,519
Speaker 1: I didn't want people thinking out. You know, it's tearing

1252
01:10:55,640 --> 01:10:59,680
Speaker 1: up because you know that that's like a that's a

1253
01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:03,240
Speaker 1: one's in a lifetime thing that probably every kid, not

1254
01:11:03,479 --> 01:11:08,120
Speaker 1: just girls, or every kid dreams about this situation if

1255
01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:10,760
Speaker 1: you play this sport. You know, it's just like I

1256
01:11:10,920 --> 01:11:13,120
Speaker 1: had the opportunity to go out and catch a game

1257
01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:15,760
Speaker 1: winning touchdown in a super Bowl, Like these are like

1258
01:11:15,920 --> 01:11:19,120
Speaker 1: things that and it just rows the neck hair off

1259
01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:21,320
Speaker 1: my back because I have a little girl too. I'm

1260
01:11:21,320 --> 01:11:23,200
Speaker 1: sitting here like this could be her you never know,

1261
01:11:23,400 --> 01:11:30,000
Speaker 1: like you know so, but going into this kick, did

1262
01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:32,560
Speaker 1: you know, like did you know her tech? Like I

1263
01:11:32,800 --> 01:11:34,280
Speaker 1: heard that you didn't want to look at her, you

1264
01:11:34,320 --> 01:11:36,280
Speaker 1: didn't want to give her no no insight, you know?

1265
01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 1: Is that that was the Was that it? Or? Because

1266
01:11:39,479 --> 01:11:41,720
Speaker 1: would she just stare you down? Like there's that's such

1267
01:11:41,800 --> 01:11:44,439
Speaker 1: like a that's such a dual thing like a Western

1268
01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:47,040
Speaker 1: you guys over here about to get ready to duel.

1269
01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:49,120
Speaker 1: If they made this into a movie, though, they'd go good,

1270
01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:50,920
Speaker 1: the bad, the ugly style and they go like I

1271
01:11:51,280 --> 01:11:54,040
Speaker 1: I I I right. But in real life you got

1272
01:11:54,160 --> 01:11:57,840
Speaker 1: to not give her anything right well, because you know,

1273
01:11:57,920 --> 01:11:59,960
Speaker 1: earlier in the year, as we talked about, you know,

1274
01:12:00,160 --> 01:12:02,680
Speaker 1: we lost to China in the Augar Cup final and

1275
01:12:03,040 --> 01:12:05,040
Speaker 1: I had a penalty and as I took the ball

1276
01:12:05,120 --> 01:12:07,840
Speaker 1: from the referee and I put it down and I

1277
01:12:07,880 --> 01:12:10,200
Speaker 1: stood up, there was Galhong. She was standing right in

1278
01:12:10,280 --> 01:12:13,280
Speaker 1: front of me. And she's a quirky character, as most

1279
01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:17,599
Speaker 1: goalkeepers are, they'll admittedly say that, and she smiled and winked,

1280
01:12:17,600 --> 01:12:19,680
Speaker 1: and I was like, what the hell is going on here? Like,

1281
01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:21,640
Speaker 1: get the hell, you know, get on the line. And

1282
01:12:22,720 --> 01:12:25,200
Speaker 1: as I backed up and the referee blew the whistle.

1283
01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:27,120
Speaker 1: I hit it pretty good and it hit the crossbar,

1284
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:29,400
Speaker 1: went out. We ended up losing the game. And so

1285
01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:32,880
Speaker 1: the only thing going through my head as I'm making

1286
01:12:32,960 --> 01:12:35,960
Speaker 1: my way from the midfield to the referee with the

1287
01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:38,840
Speaker 1: ball was don't look at the goalkeeper. And I think

1288
01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:41,080
Speaker 1: in so many of these moments, and you know, if

1289
01:12:41,160 --> 01:12:45,280
Speaker 1: I were to partake and sharing any advice with anybody

1290
01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:48,439
Speaker 1: who's getting ready to make a big presentation over their

1291
01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:51,120
Speaker 1: first presentation at work, or you know, getting up to

1292
01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:54,320
Speaker 1: hit as the last out in a big game, or

1293
01:12:54,360 --> 01:12:57,320
Speaker 1: anything in between those things that you've already done all

1294
01:12:57,360 --> 01:13:01,160
Speaker 1: the hard work. You know, don't don't question your ability.

1295
01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:04,479
Speaker 1: You you you're there for a reason, and so you're

1296
01:13:04,520 --> 01:13:06,040
Speaker 1: just gonna go up and do what you know how

1297
01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:09,080
Speaker 1: to do and be you, be your best you in

1298
01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:12,280
Speaker 1: that moment and don't worry about anything else. Everything else

1299
01:13:12,320 --> 01:13:14,840
Speaker 1: will take care of itself. And so I just you know,

1300
01:13:14,920 --> 01:13:17,680
Speaker 1: I move forward with it. Don't look at the goalkeeper.

1301
01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:20,000
Speaker 1: I took the ball, I put it down. I never

1302
01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:22,679
Speaker 1: raised my eyes. You know, I got into that comfortable

1303
01:13:22,760 --> 01:13:25,800
Speaker 1: position where you know, the distance from the ball, and

1304
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:28,639
Speaker 1: I tapped my toe and I waited for the whistle,

1305
01:13:28,880 --> 01:13:31,639
Speaker 1: and I just struck it as well as I could.

1306
01:13:33,160 --> 01:13:35,559
Speaker 1: Every time I see it now, I think, shit, that's

1307
01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:37,560
Speaker 1: way too close to the posts, Like why did you

1308
01:13:37,640 --> 01:13:42,360
Speaker 1: make it so close? But it was remarkable, and I

1309
01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:45,120
Speaker 1: think to your point about your daughter, and you know

1310
01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:50,240
Speaker 1: the excitement of that moment, this this concept of celebration

1311
01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:56,800
Speaker 1: and and the the need, the real need of a

1312
01:13:56,920 --> 01:14:01,040
Speaker 1: platform for young girls to express them selves and to

1313
01:14:01,920 --> 01:14:03,800
Speaker 1: you know, have a moment where they can say I

1314
01:14:03,920 --> 01:14:08,000
Speaker 1: did that. I think resonates with me more now twenty

1315
01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:10,800
Speaker 1: something years later than maybe it did in that moment.

1316
01:14:11,720 --> 01:14:15,880
Speaker 1: But I truly understand that. You know, when I was

1317
01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:18,760
Speaker 1: a young kid, like you said at the playground, you know,

1318
01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:21,920
Speaker 1: we all hope for that moment, we don't. Like I said,

1319
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:23,800
Speaker 1: I played flag football because I thought I was going

1320
01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:27,320
Speaker 1: to be in the NFL, and so I thought, like,

1321
01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:30,120
Speaker 1: I'm going to make the game changing play and I

1322
01:14:30,160 --> 01:14:34,880
Speaker 1: would celebrate mildly, but I would watch my brother and

1323
01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:37,400
Speaker 1: his friends like all act like they had just done

1324
01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:40,400
Speaker 1: incredible things. I'm like, who the hell are you guys?

1325
01:14:40,479 --> 01:14:42,479
Speaker 1: Like why are you so confident all the time? Like

1326
01:14:42,920 --> 01:14:46,080
Speaker 1: what gives you that? And I feel like that's something

1327
01:14:46,200 --> 01:14:52,120
Speaker 1: that this moment. You know that that picture now hopefully

1328
01:14:52,240 --> 01:14:55,360
Speaker 1: resonates forward for young women and young men to be

1329
01:14:55,439 --> 01:14:58,080
Speaker 1: honest with you and anybody who is finding themselves in

1330
01:14:58,160 --> 01:15:01,400
Speaker 1: a moment where they need to know that what they grew,

1331
01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:04,320
Speaker 1: the good things that they do are worthy of celebrating

1332
01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:08,760
Speaker 1: because you did that, and you shouldn't be shy about it.

1333
01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:11,479
Speaker 1: You should not demure, and you should just enjoy the

1334
01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:13,760
Speaker 1: moment for all that it has to offer, in not

1335
01:15:13,880 --> 01:15:17,759
Speaker 1: a conceited way, but in a everybody enjoy this moment

1336
01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:21,880
Speaker 1: because it's so fantastic. We don't know when it's gonna

1337
01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:24,519
Speaker 1: come again. And that's why I think for me it

1338
01:15:25,080 --> 01:15:28,720
Speaker 1: has lasted so long and that people come to me

1339
01:15:28,880 --> 01:15:32,960
Speaker 1: literally almost every day, and like I was at that game, Wow,

1340
01:15:33,040 --> 01:15:35,000
Speaker 1: and I listened to the story of where they were

1341
01:15:35,040 --> 01:15:37,160
Speaker 1: sitting in the stadium and why they were there and

1342
01:15:37,520 --> 01:15:40,040
Speaker 1: who they brought and what did it mean to them. Well,

1343
01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:42,000
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've been on TikTok. Young people

1344
01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:46,680
Speaker 1: are not shy about celebrating themselves, but but this is

1345
01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:49,479
Speaker 1: such an iconic celebration. It's so cool that like you

1346
01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:52,439

01:16:29,960 --> 01:16:32,000
Speaker 1: was this just like I can't control myself, I'm losing it.

1360
01:16:32,200 --> 01:16:34,559
Speaker 1: Would you have done it differently? That's just that's got

1361
01:16:34,640 --> 01:16:39,240
Speaker 1: to be just adrenaline. No, that's just that's I've called

1362
01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:42,519
Speaker 1: it before, insanity because you just honestly, I think this

1363
01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:45,519
Speaker 1: is the beauty of sports, right, these emotional moments. And

1364
01:16:45,600 --> 01:16:47,760
Speaker 1: this is why I feel like, not to get off

1365
01:16:47,840 --> 01:16:51,000
Speaker 1: topic to the question, but where I think technology sometimes

1366
01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:54,040
Speaker 1: is interrupting the real value what sports bring us. It's

1367
01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:57,599
Speaker 1: like these emotional moments, these roller coaster moments, and why

1368
01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:00,439
Speaker 1: we're invested so heavily in these games Tames is we

1369
01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:04,920
Speaker 1: love the you know, like we love those things. And

1370
01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:10,040
Speaker 1: and I think that moment was such a combination of

1371
01:17:10,280 --> 01:17:13,240
Speaker 1: every of every moment I've spent on the field, whether

1372
01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:16,200
Speaker 1: that's you know, having my a cl reconstructed and then

1373
01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:20,240
Speaker 1: my other a cl reconstructed, or you know, being the

1374
01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:23,080
Speaker 1: leading goal scorer, or being on the bench and being

1375
01:17:23,120 --> 01:17:25,760
Speaker 1: the first to the sideline with the water, and you know,

1376
01:17:25,880 --> 01:17:28,880
Speaker 1: whatever it was in soccer, it was giving me so

1377
01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:32,760
Speaker 1: much and it was providing me with such opportunity that

1378
01:17:33,160 --> 01:17:37,400
Speaker 1: I just I honestly couldn't have stopped myself from doing that.

1379
01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:43,960
Speaker 1: It was just it was insanity. It was all the

1380
01:17:44,400 --> 01:17:49,479
Speaker 1: reliefs and joy. You just become possessed. You were possessed.

1381
01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:52,120
Speaker 1: I mean, you're in that zone. That's a that's a

1382
01:17:52,240 --> 01:17:55,599
Speaker 1: zone like that's a zone. As an athlete, we all crave,

1383
01:17:56,040 --> 01:18:02,439
Speaker 1: we crave for that that just moment where you can't control. Yeah,

1384
01:18:02,520 --> 01:18:04,920
Speaker 1: have you have you spoken with have you spoken with

1385
01:18:04,960 --> 01:18:08,479
Speaker 1: anyone from the Chinese team since the battle? Oh? Yeah,

1386
01:18:08,600 --> 01:18:13,080
Speaker 1: I actually I helped one of the former players get

1387
01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:15,000
Speaker 1: her green cards so she could stay in the US

1388
01:18:15,120 --> 01:18:17,360
Speaker 1: and she's now a coach here in the Bay Area.

1389
01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:22,040
Speaker 1: Well would you have helped if you lost? Yes, of course,

1390
01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:26,519
Speaker 1: sports sports. Maybe it would have taken I would have

1391
01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:28,439
Speaker 1: had to take, you know, some time to contemplate it.

1392
01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:33,040
Speaker 1: But now, yeah, no. You know, when we had the

1393
01:18:33,080 --> 01:18:35,519
Speaker 1: first ever women's professional league, the w U s A,

1394
01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:41,080
Speaker 1: we had a few Chinese players, Sun Win probably their

1395
01:18:41,280 --> 01:18:45,479
Speaker 1: greatest field player, just phenomenal, Like you couldn't take the

1396
01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:48,720
Speaker 1: ball off that girl. She's the Steph Curry of of

1397
01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:52,200
Speaker 1: women's soccer at the time, and you know, playing against

1398
01:18:52,280 --> 01:18:56,679
Speaker 1: her was just brutal. So we got to play against

1399
01:18:56,720 --> 01:18:59,840
Speaker 1: her here in the US. And you know, the players become,

1400
01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:02,880
Speaker 1: you become friends with these This is the beauty of

1401
01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:06,080
Speaker 1: international soccer. This is what I really love about the

1402
01:19:06,160 --> 01:19:09,600
Speaker 1: game of soccers that you know, the world plays it,

1403
01:19:09,720 --> 01:19:12,360
Speaker 1: the world speaks the same language. You know, sometimes the

1404
01:19:12,439 --> 01:19:16,880
Speaker 1: tactics are a little different, you know, but we come together.

1405
01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:19,200
Speaker 1: You see these players playing all over the world in

1406
01:19:19,280 --> 01:19:22,200
Speaker 1: different leagues across the world, and they become you become

1407
01:19:23,200 --> 01:19:25,880
Speaker 1: friends with these folks, and so now you get to

1408
01:19:25,920 --> 01:19:27,960
Speaker 1: go out and compete, which I think makes it even

1409
01:19:28,320 --> 01:19:31,960
Speaker 1: just so much more fun. I think in the beginning

1410
01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:36,519
Speaker 1: it was literally just countries against countries where we just

1411
01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:40,120
Speaker 1: didn't like each other. And then it became like we

1412
01:19:40,320 --> 01:19:42,160
Speaker 1: really got to know each other, and I think that

1413
01:19:42,360 --> 01:19:45,680
Speaker 1: elevated the game even more. Time heals everything. You know,

1414
01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:49,800
Speaker 1: a little bit is m especially a competitor, and you

1415
01:19:49,880 --> 01:19:52,200
Speaker 1: got to tip your hat to these the Chinese team

1416
01:19:52,320 --> 01:19:55,280
Speaker 1: because you know, ultimately they were on they helped give

1417
01:19:55,360 --> 01:19:59,000
Speaker 1: them the platform to go out and do this unbelievable

1418
01:19:59,080 --> 01:20:01,320
Speaker 1: thing and compete it up high level. In an end,

1419
01:20:01,800 --> 01:20:05,559
Speaker 1: in a Hollywood kind of ending, I mean, pe K's yeah,

1420
01:20:05,560 --> 01:20:09,559
Speaker 1: I mean that's so, you know, we're pro US all

1421
01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:13,439
Speaker 1: the way by a million, trillion million, But you gotta

1422
01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:16,120
Speaker 1: tip your hats and Chinese tip your hat? You keep

1423
01:20:17,200 --> 01:20:19,320
Speaker 1: do you do you in the ninety nine ers? Like

1424
01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:21,840
Speaker 1: do you guys pretty much? Like are you guys like

1425
01:20:21,920 --> 01:20:27,160
Speaker 1: the seventy two Dolphins? Like anytime like another US team

1426
01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:30,320
Speaker 1: go fails or doesn't do well, you guys like like

1427
01:20:30,479 --> 01:20:32,200
Speaker 1: hit each other up, Like, hey, you guys want to

1428
01:20:32,200 --> 01:20:34,080
Speaker 1: have a glass of champagne. We're still the baddest team

1429
01:20:34,080 --> 01:20:39,599
Speaker 1: of all time. Well, what's one of the Patriots teams

1430
01:20:39,680 --> 01:20:42,200
Speaker 1: was the best. I mean, that's another the question, right,

1431
01:20:43,439 --> 01:20:44,880
Speaker 1: you know that's good. I would say the team that

1432
01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:48,720
Speaker 1: lost to the Giants and and uh, the Ears. Yeah,

1433
01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:50,720
Speaker 1: I think I think that team was probably the best

1434
01:20:50,720 --> 01:20:52,960
Speaker 1: and they couldn't get it done. It was tough for them, guys.

1435
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,040
Speaker 1: A Giants fan, if you didn't know that, yeah, So

1436
01:20:56,560 --> 01:21:00,560
Speaker 1: hold on, you Niners fan, you have to be I have.

1437
01:21:00,760 --> 01:21:02,960
Speaker 1: I am a Niners fan, but I have friends in

1438
01:21:03,400 --> 01:21:08,080
Speaker 1: in football and sports all over. I'm going to send

1439
01:21:08,120 --> 01:21:10,120
Speaker 1: you a helmet. We're going to give you a real helmet.

1440
01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:13,920
Speaker 1: That Michael Strahan. That looks like a pretty real helmet

1441
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:18,640
Speaker 1: to me, buddy. I you know I have been on

1442
01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:20,960
Speaker 1: the sideline of your Super bowls. Julian need to know

1443
01:21:21,080 --> 01:21:24,720
Speaker 1: this because I worked for NFL Films and I did

1444
01:21:24,760 --> 01:21:27,559
Speaker 1: a show called Under the Helmet, and I have been

1445
01:21:27,600 --> 01:21:30,559
Speaker 1: on the sideline many times. And then I got pushed

1446
01:21:30,600 --> 01:21:32,920
Speaker 1: by my producers go talk to the guys, and I'm like,

1447
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:34,840
Speaker 1: oh my god, they're right in the middle, the middle

1448
01:21:34,880 --> 01:21:37,800
Speaker 1: of celebrating this glorious Super Bowl win. They don't want

1449
01:21:37,840 --> 01:21:43,000
Speaker 1: to talk to me. They could care less. Oh my gosh,

1450
01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:44,880
Speaker 1: this is a good question. You're going to really please

1451
01:21:44,960 --> 01:21:48,920
Speaker 1: be the Mario Manningham one. This would be perfect. I've

1452
01:21:48,960 --> 01:21:52,400
Speaker 1: been I've been at a couple of them, so shoot,

1453
01:21:52,560 --> 01:21:56,200
Speaker 1: I'm I'm too old to remember. No worries my language. Yeah,

1454
01:21:56,479 --> 01:22:00,080
Speaker 1: but I you know, I'm a big fan of of

1455
01:22:01,520 --> 01:22:05,000
Speaker 1: all these moments, these big sports moments, because they just

1456
01:22:05,439 --> 01:22:10,840
Speaker 1: help people believe that things are possible. I love it. Now,

1457
01:22:11,400 --> 01:22:13,080
Speaker 1: you know, we got to end this thing up. But

1458
01:22:13,280 --> 01:22:15,240
Speaker 1: I have to get a couple quicks. You know, I'm

1459
01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:17,680
Speaker 1: a new time soccer dad. My daughter. You know, we're

1460
01:22:17,760 --> 01:22:21,559
Speaker 1: second season. You know four, she's five now she's turning six.

1461
01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:23,920
Speaker 1: You know, when she was four, it was more of

1462
01:22:24,040 --> 01:22:26,479
Speaker 1: like a class, and you know, they didn't really compete.

1463
01:22:26,560 --> 01:22:30,000
Speaker 1: Now we're competing. I do a couple of drills with her,

1464
01:22:31,360 --> 01:22:33,400
Speaker 1: you know, I do the one. You're the coach. You're

1465
01:22:33,439 --> 01:22:35,880
Speaker 1: the coach. No, I'm not the coach. I can't. I can't.

1466
01:22:35,960 --> 01:22:38,400
Speaker 1: I can't fathom being the coach because I you know,

1467
01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:41,439
Speaker 1: I was coached in the nineties and it's a little

1468
01:22:41,479 --> 01:22:43,760
Speaker 1: different with the kids these days. So I have to

1469
01:22:43,840 --> 01:22:46,600
Speaker 1: actually go be behind the fence and like, cause she

1470
01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:48,800
Speaker 1: get a little nervous if she sees me here and there,

1471
01:22:49,360 --> 01:22:52,280
Speaker 1: But you know, how do I how do I be

1472
01:22:52,360 --> 01:22:56,000
Speaker 1: a good soccer dad? Gosh? I wish my dad was

1473
01:22:56,040 --> 01:22:59,400
Speaker 1: still alive to answer this question for you, because he was.

1474
01:22:59,600 --> 01:23:02,920
Speaker 1: He actually became my coach when I was, you know,

1475
01:23:03,280 --> 01:23:05,920
Speaker 1: just turning eight, and he was my coach from eight

1476
01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:09,280
Speaker 1: to sixteen. He didn't know anything about soccer. We literally

1477
01:23:09,360 --> 01:23:11,920
Speaker 1: went to the library, we got the four books they had,

1478
01:23:12,520 --> 01:23:15,799
Speaker 1: we got the one VHS tape, and then we became

1479
01:23:16,680 --> 01:23:19,960
Speaker 1: season ticket holders to the Santos eight earthquakes back in

1480
01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:23,600
Speaker 1: the old naslds and we just spent time together, like

1481
01:23:25,720 --> 01:23:29,920
Speaker 1: learning the details, the rules, the He just encouraged me,

1482
01:23:30,600 --> 01:23:33,120
Speaker 1: and then he realized we got to a point where

1483
01:23:33,160 --> 01:23:35,200
Speaker 1: he's like, oh my gosh, I don't know enough to

1484
01:23:35,400 --> 01:23:38,639
Speaker 1: help you anymore. Just you know, he was always there.

1485
01:23:38,880 --> 01:23:42,040
Speaker 1: I think that was really the main thing. He was there.

1486
01:23:42,400 --> 01:23:48,120
Speaker 1: He showed up. He acknowledged that he didn't know everything

1487
01:23:48,160 --> 01:23:49,920
Speaker 1: about it, but he gave us a place to play.

1488
01:23:50,160 --> 01:23:54,479
Speaker 1: And he was a former marine, so we knew push up,

1489
01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:56,880
Speaker 1: sit ups and run around the field in an organized manner.

1490
01:23:57,200 --> 01:23:59,920
Speaker 1: And he loved the idea of team you know, as marine.

1491
01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:02,920
Speaker 1: You know, that's like a family thing, right, So you know,

1492
01:24:03,160 --> 01:24:09,200
Speaker 1: just making it as special and fun as possible is

1493
01:24:09,320 --> 01:24:14,320
Speaker 1: probably the most most important thing you can do. Wanting

1494
01:24:14,400 --> 01:24:16,960
Speaker 1: them to be excited about coming to the field. Having

1495
01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:19,960
Speaker 1: a relationship with the ball is probably the greatest gift

1496
01:24:20,040 --> 01:24:22,720
Speaker 1: a coach can give a young player. Encourage them to

1497
01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:26,320
Speaker 1: take risks, make mistakes, fall down. They're going to fall

1498
01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:28,479
Speaker 1: down over the ball. Who can have the most glorious

1499
01:24:29,560 --> 01:24:32,519
Speaker 1: crashes with the ball? Like, that's the only way you're

1500
01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:35,280
Speaker 1: going to get better. And so I would, you know,

1501
01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:38,720
Speaker 1: I would just encourage her to spend time with the

1502
01:24:38,760 --> 01:24:41,080
Speaker 1: ball and her friends and whatever they want to do

1503
01:24:41,160 --> 01:24:44,680
Speaker 1: with it. Awesome. Yeah, So I'll tell you what I do.

1504
01:24:45,840 --> 01:24:50,839
Speaker 1: I go around La Parks and I see soccer coaches

1505
01:24:51,200 --> 01:24:53,120
Speaker 1: and this is usually when she's in school, and I

1506
01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:55,320
Speaker 1: poach a couple of the drills, so like we're doing

1507
01:24:55,600 --> 01:24:58,680
Speaker 1: a couple of these ones, we're doing inside taps, and

1508
01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:00,720
Speaker 1: then I just throw the ball. She always wants to

1509
01:25:00,800 --> 01:25:03,559
Speaker 1: go to this hill part of the of the grass.

1510
01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:06,160
Speaker 1: I don't know why, because you're not supposed to go there,

1511
01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:08,400
Speaker 1: and I'm saying you should go there, but you got

1512
01:25:08,520 --> 01:25:10,439
Speaker 1: to bring the ball. You got to bring the ball

1513
01:25:10,680 --> 01:25:12,639
Speaker 1: and say, she just kicks the ball. So that's that's

1514
01:25:12,640 --> 01:25:14,759
Speaker 1: all we got. I know nothing about soccer. I played

1515
01:25:14,840 --> 01:25:16,639
Speaker 1: like a few years when I was like real young.

1516
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:19,720
Speaker 1: But uh, that's great advice. I just got to be

1517
01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:22,760
Speaker 1: there and I'm gonna do that and thank you for

1518
01:25:22,920 --> 01:25:25,600
Speaker 1: joining us. What are what are your days looking like

1519
01:25:25,760 --> 01:25:31,760
Speaker 1: these days? Oh my gosh, you know, I do a

1520
01:25:31,880 --> 01:25:35,040
Speaker 1: lot of things. I'm sure you probably can appreciate this, Julian.

1521
01:25:35,120 --> 01:25:40,200
Speaker 1: As an athlete, your career only goes so long, right

1522
01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:43,400
Speaker 1: because physically you have to be able to perform at

1523
01:25:43,640 --> 01:25:47,720
Speaker 1: the top of the top. And so once I retired

1524
01:25:47,800 --> 01:25:51,680
Speaker 1: from soccer, I was no looking for that next thing

1525
01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:56,400
Speaker 1: that would fulfill and fill the void of not being

1526
01:25:56,439 --> 01:25:58,519
Speaker 1: in the locker room or not being with the teams

1527
01:25:58,600 --> 01:26:02,240
Speaker 1: raining every day. And that was really tough. And I

1528
01:26:02,320 --> 01:26:04,719
Speaker 1: got into coaching, which I feel like as a player,

1529
01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:07,040
Speaker 1: I was always kind of the coach on the field,

1530
01:26:07,920 --> 01:26:11,719
Speaker 1: and so that's been really great, and I've been working

1531
01:26:11,880 --> 01:26:17,080
Speaker 1: on just you know, my coaching skills, and my dream

1532
01:26:17,280 --> 01:26:20,080
Speaker 1: is to be a coach of the national team, and

1533
01:26:20,360 --> 01:26:22,799
Speaker 1: whether that's you know, one of our young national teams

1534
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:25,880
Speaker 1: or the full national team. I just feel I've been

1535
01:26:25,920 --> 01:26:30,800
Speaker 1: given so many wonderful life lessons through the game that

1536
01:26:30,840 --> 01:26:34,000
Speaker 1: I want to give it back. So that's my dream.

1537
01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:37,439
Speaker 1: So I'm putting it out into the universe that hopefully

1538
01:26:37,479 --> 01:26:40,960
Speaker 1: one day will happen. But again, like you, I'm sure

1539
01:26:41,040 --> 01:26:43,439
Speaker 1: you have your hand in a lot of different things

1540
01:26:43,479 --> 01:26:47,080
Speaker 1: that are outside your area of expertise of playing football.

1541
01:26:47,680 --> 01:26:50,320
Speaker 1: So for me, I'm working with a startup called City Cheers,

1542

01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:38,160
Speaker 1: played football at CAL. He's a local San Jose guy,

1556

Speaker 1: and he was really struggling with Yeah, he had suffered

1557
01:27:43,800 --> 01:27:47,880
Speaker 1: a couple of injuries, concussions, and he was suffering with

1558
01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:51,200
Speaker 1: with lack of sleep and being in business school and

1559
01:27:52,439 --> 01:27:55,400
Speaker 1: and they had a project and he created this new pillow,

1560
01:27:55,720 --> 01:27:59,080
Speaker 1: and so I want to help. I'm helping him invested in.

1561
01:28:00,360 --> 01:28:04,160
Speaker 1: It's called Mommy M v M I. And we want

1562
01:28:04,280 --> 01:28:09,880
Speaker 1: to get people to really appreciate and and really put

1563
01:28:09,960 --> 01:28:14,840
Speaker 1: time and energy, which is funny, into sleeping. And we

1564
01:28:15,040 --> 01:28:18,799

1565
01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:22,280
Speaker 1: with your best night's sleep. So we have a pillow

1566
01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:25,920

1567
01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:28,280
Speaker 1: of every other type of pillow, which if I asked

1568

Speaker 1: the goose feather pillow. I'm a goose feather pillow. I

1574
01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:51,320

01:35:10,840 --> 01:35:13,479
Speaker 1: the movie. No, it's like it's like a Pinocchio Chucky.

1683
01:35:13,600 --> 01:35:16,360
Speaker 1: They make like he his number one goal is to

1684
01:35:16,400 --> 01:35:19,400

1685
01:35:19,479 --> 01:35:24,280
Speaker 1: just a successful rich guy. Well you know the Da Supercuts. No,

1686
01:35:25,160 --> 01:35:28,719
Speaker 1: the Davis is. Their money's all like they're true football people.

1687
01:35:28,800 --> 01:35:32,760
Speaker 1: They didn't come from money. Al Davis like it's got

1688
01:35:32,800 --> 01:35:35,200

1693
01:35:47,040 --> 01:35:50,360
Speaker 1: Like they're real traditional football people. Al Davis starred as

1694
01:35:50,400 --> 01:35:53,439
Speaker 1: a coach coach. Then he bought a team. He started

1695

1752
01:39:01,600 --> 01:39:04,680
Speaker 1: video games. I got in because that's how I learned.

1753
01:39:04,720 --> 01:39:08,080
Speaker 1: I play like NBA and Maden Sometimes that's a dude,

1754

01:39:12,880 --> 01:39:15,200
Speaker 1: the teams. My boys all had an EPL team. I

1757
01:39:15,320 --> 01:39:18,519

Speaker 1: and then kind of became friendly with Harry Kane and

1760
01:39:26,200 --> 01:39:30,880

1761
01:39:31,040 --> 01:39:35,000
Speaker 1: soccer and the hockey video games are pretty similar. Legit, yeah, similar,

1762

01:41:20,400 --> 01:41:24,000
Speaker 1: played Call Duty, and I'll dip into Fortnite sometimes they're

1803
01:41:24,040 --> 01:41:26,760
Speaker 1: fun games. I'm terrible. I don't play. I'm so bad.

1804
01:41:26,840 --> 01:41:28,400
Speaker 1: But I was on the road recently with a few

1805
01:41:28,439 --> 01:41:31,360
Speaker 1: friends and we just hit up a Dave and Busters afterwards, Yeah,

1806
01:41:31,400 --> 01:41:33,519
Speaker 1: and we're playing like Mario Kart, and I'm like, this

1807
01:41:33,720 --> 01:41:37,479
Speaker 1: is fucking killer. This is great. But the buttons have

1808
01:41:37,600 --> 01:41:40,479
Speaker 1: become more sophisticated. Oh yeah, well that's my that's my

1809
01:41:41,840 --> 01:41:43,720
Speaker 1: that's my take on it. I mean, I grew up

1810
01:41:43,760 --> 01:41:45,679
Speaker 1: with two buttons, maybe three if I got to Sega.

1811
01:41:45,760 --> 01:41:47,560
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't have like when you when you

1812
01:41:47,720 --> 01:41:51,280
Speaker 1: have to use dexterity for two buttons. These kids got

1813
01:41:51,439 --> 01:41:54,080
Speaker 1: every finger's got a button, and they grew up on it. Like,

1814
01:41:54,160 --> 01:41:56,840
Speaker 1: so you're naturally going to evolve a better video game player.

1815
01:41:57,000 --> 01:41:58,880
Speaker 1: It's like sex. When you start out, you just need

1816
01:41:58,920 --> 01:42:01,560
Speaker 1: a couple buttons. But you move on, you know, you

1817
01:42:01,680 --> 01:42:02,920
Speaker 1: need to you need to be able to work. There

1818
01:42:03,080 --> 01:42:05,040
Speaker 1: need a R two, You need an R two, need

1819
01:42:05,080 --> 01:42:06,960
Speaker 1: a R one and L one. You need to paddles

1820
01:42:06,960 --> 01:42:09,200
Speaker 1: on the bottom, Yeah, you need one. Definitely need a

1821
01:42:09,200 --> 01:42:12,400
Speaker 1: paddle on the bottom. The bottle paddle is that paddle?

1822
01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:15,560
Speaker 1: Keep your mind out of the gutter? Sam, what's the

1823
01:42:15,680 --> 01:42:19,320
Speaker 1: legacy of this game? It's uh, I mean, it's one

1824
01:42:19,360 --> 01:42:22,280
Speaker 1: of the most important sporting events in American history. I

1825
01:42:22,360 --> 01:42:24,639
Speaker 1: mean when you think of I mean you think of soccer.

1826
01:42:25,080 --> 01:42:27,800
Speaker 1: Is there a bigger game in American history? Absolutely not,

1827
01:42:28,840 --> 01:42:32,960
Speaker 1: there you go, absolutely not. It's you know, women's sports

1828
01:42:33,000 --> 01:42:35,960
Speaker 1: have grown because of this. It's given it's given little girls.

1829
01:42:37,400 --> 01:42:39,840
Speaker 1: It's given them motivation, and it's given them like a

1830
01:42:40,000 --> 01:42:45,120
Speaker 1: dream that they can go out and chase. Yeah, you know,

1831
01:42:45,640 --> 01:42:50,439
Speaker 1: especially in professional sports, and that's huge, especially if you

1832
01:42:50,520 --> 01:42:54,160
Speaker 1: have a little girl. You know it it opens up

1833
01:42:54,240 --> 01:43:00,800
Speaker 1: doors and and that's what these ladies did. The Rose Bull.

1834
01:43:01,880 --> 01:43:04,600
Speaker 1: This is our is our third or fourth game? I

1835
01:43:04,680 --> 01:43:07,479
Speaker 1: thought it was our fourth, our third, all right, Yeah,

1836
01:43:07,560 --> 01:43:09,800
Speaker 1: we've done Super Bowl twenty one, and Super Bowl twenty seven.

1837
01:43:10,160 --> 01:43:11,800
Speaker 1: I mean, look, this is on the wall. As we

1838
01:43:11,920 --> 01:43:15,240
Speaker 1: said to Brandy earlier, she's right there, and that is

1839
01:43:15,320 --> 01:43:18,680
Speaker 1: the lasting image. That's the image of the championship, the

1840
01:43:18,920 --> 01:43:21,719
Speaker 1: either the kicking it or I think that's the image

1841
01:43:22,520 --> 01:43:26,200
Speaker 1: Sportspra the sports bra And I'm glad we got it

1842
01:43:26,280 --> 01:43:29,120
Speaker 1: off the container. Yeah, it was lost in the container

1843
01:43:29,200 --> 01:43:34,800
Speaker 1: for years. That's crazy years. You can't misplace. You can't

1844
01:43:34,840 --> 01:43:38,200
Speaker 1: misplace a piece of sports history like that. No disrespectful.

1845
01:43:39,040 --> 01:43:42,720
Speaker 1: And she has a bronze statue in front of the

1846
01:43:42,800 --> 01:43:47,280
Speaker 1: Rose Bowl. Let's see this. It's just cool to get

1847
01:43:47,320 --> 01:43:49,679
Speaker 1: that moment, to get called up and to deliver. It's

1848
01:43:49,720 --> 01:43:54,320
Speaker 1: pretty fucking badass. And a dude with the long foot.

1849
01:43:55,200 --> 01:43:58,840
Speaker 1: Oh wow, look at that. That's tight. I'm gonna go

01:44:04,800 --> 01:44:07,920

1853
01:44:07,960 --> 01:44:11,160
Speaker 1: ball in that Lucille. I love Lucy one. That is well,

1854
01:44:12,479 --> 01:44:14,799

01:44:14,840 --> 01:44:18,160
Speaker 1: werewolf in London? What the fuck happened there? You know,

1856
01:44:18,680 --> 01:44:22,080
Speaker 1: sometimes I don't understand why they Okay, those like I've

01:45:20,920 --> 01:45:24,400
Speaker 1: would be Oh, it looks like the coach from Varsity

Speaker 1: this game? Oh we also got I gotta correct myself

1888
01:46:18,200 --> 01:46:21,160
Speaker 1: from earlier in the episode. This was golden Goal. In fact,

1889
01:46:21,680 --> 01:46:24,559
Speaker 1: ninety three was the introduction of golden goal. They phased

1890
01:46:24,600 --> 01:46:27,080
Speaker 1: it out in sudden death first goal wins in overtime

1891
01:46:27,160 --> 01:46:30,880
Speaker 1: golden goal. We also talked about Brandy's big accomplishment in

1892
01:46:30,960 --> 01:46:33,800
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety nine, but I would argue her greater accomplishment

1893
01:46:33,880 --> 01:46:36,599
Speaker 1: came two years later, two thousand and one. She beat

1894
01:46:36,720 --> 01:46:39,240

1898
01:46:50,640 --> 01:46:52,800
Speaker 1: go back and review the tape. So she won two

1899
01:46:52,840 --> 01:46:55,439
Speaker 1: dollars for the charity. Did you won one dollar? Yeah?

1900
01:46:56,200 --> 01:46:59,160

1906
01:47:21,280 --> 01:47:23,680
Speaker 1: I mean that's the picture. That's nothing. Name the most

1907
01:47:23,720 --> 01:47:26,880
Speaker 1: important women's star game of all time. I mean could

1908
01:47:26,920 --> 01:47:29,640
Speaker 1: be that. That's very American. What did she say? Uh?

1909
01:47:30,760 --> 01:47:32,800
Speaker 1: What did she say? Who said? Mate? Called it the

1910
01:47:32,960 --> 01:47:36,439
Speaker 1: name Julie Foudy. She called it the Battle of the Bitches.

1911
01:47:36,640 --> 01:47:39,640
Speaker 1: That's it, got it? I mean that's what they call it.

1912
01:47:40,280 --> 01:47:42,160
Speaker 1: It's the Battle of the Bitches. That's what she wanted

1913
01:47:42,240 --> 01:47:45,479
Speaker 1: us to call it. Yeah, so Battle of the Bitches.

1914
01:47:45,640 --> 01:47:48,720
Speaker 1: Steaks steaks are as high as they can be. It's

1915
01:47:48,760 --> 01:47:53,679
Speaker 1: the World Cup, World Cup Final, Yeah, against a rival China.

1916
01:47:54,600 --> 01:47:58,240
Speaker 1: It's got to be in the nine. I go nine three, dude,

1917
01:47:58,280 --> 01:48:01,680
Speaker 1: maybe nine. I mean, can they be higher? It might

1918
01:48:01,720 --> 01:48:05,000
Speaker 1: be a nine to six? Is that too crazy? N

1919
01:48:05,680 --> 01:48:08,000
Speaker 1: I think so? All right? Six? I mean dude, I mean,

1920
01:48:08,760 --> 01:48:10,600
Speaker 1: I don't think we've done anything with higher stakes than this.

1921
01:48:12,000 --> 01:48:15,559
Speaker 1: We have star power is big, but then you also

1922
01:48:15,600 --> 01:48:20,960
Speaker 1: have to take into account that like Clinton's there and

1923
01:48:21,080 --> 01:48:24,600
Speaker 1: then our city Hall. Yeah he was there at the

1924
01:48:24,640 --> 01:48:28,280
Speaker 1: peak of our sineos powers. Yaham was on the field. Yeah,

1925
01:48:30,920 --> 01:48:40,120
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton, I mean, Chelsea, I mean, we got wet there. Sheesh.

1926
01:48:42,640 --> 01:48:45,800
Speaker 1: What about to take some Clinton slabs? Come on, I

1927
01:48:45,840 --> 01:48:48,560
Speaker 1: would say a nine to one, all right, Yeah, this

1928
01:48:49,200 --> 01:48:52,760
Speaker 1: is gonna be up there. Gameplay. Look, I'm not gonna

1929
01:48:52,760 --> 01:48:54,400
Speaker 1: take some hits on this. I don't think the game

1930
01:48:54,400 --> 01:48:56,720
Speaker 1: play is incredible. I think the finish is incredible. It's

1931
01:48:56,720 --> 01:49:00,720
Speaker 1: a boring fucking game. It's zero zero, dude. I mean,

1932
01:49:00,760 --> 01:49:02,880
Speaker 1: there's some great moments, but I can't. I can't go

1933
01:49:03,000 --> 01:49:06,040
Speaker 1: higher than seven to five on gameplay. That's very ethnocentric

1934
01:49:06,080 --> 01:49:09,600
Speaker 1: of use of sam What is it? Tell? What do

1935
01:49:09,680 --> 01:49:12,439
Speaker 1: you think? I would say probably like a seven five,

1936
01:49:12,600 --> 01:49:14,400
Speaker 1: seven to five. All right, we're in the same page,

1937
01:49:14,479 --> 01:49:19,040
Speaker 1: you know, ethosectric ethnocentric means I'm assuming it's something to

1938
01:49:19,040 --> 01:49:22,640
Speaker 1: do with my ethnicity. No, it means we're because of

1939
01:49:22,760 --> 01:49:25,080
Speaker 1: the society we've all grown up in as Americans that

1940
01:49:25,120 --> 01:49:28,800
Speaker 1: we like fast hitting, high scoring matches, and we can't

1941
01:49:28,880 --> 01:49:31,720
Speaker 1: take the beauty in the art of the game, in

1942
01:49:31,800 --> 01:49:33,760
Speaker 1: the flow of soccer because we didn't grow up in

1943
01:49:33,840 --> 01:49:39,679
Speaker 1: that particular area of the world World Studies, two thousand

1944
01:49:39,680 --> 01:49:42,320
Speaker 1: and three. That's what I remember, all right, Well, I

1945
01:49:42,360 --> 01:49:44,040
Speaker 1: would say there was a lot of There was a

1946
01:49:44,080 --> 01:49:47,599
Speaker 1: lot of key moments at the end of the game. Yeah,

1947
01:49:48,040 --> 01:49:50,320
