31:44 - Some people would choose to never see you for who you are. They’ll only see you for who you were.

Alexi Lalas

12:59 - That’s kind of what sports is. It’s that brief shine and it’s a feeling unlike anything else.     

39:45 - In life, being able to articulate things and do it in a clear and concise and efficient manner is important.

50:57 - once you stop kicking that ball. People look at you very, very differently.

12:30 - I can still make a living in this game without even kicking a ball

13:09 -  I made a lot of mistakes, but I had great experiences and all of those have led to this version that you see right now.

When I was in the front office. I think I played a part that at my core I didn't have a touchstone.
