To be honest, I was nervous about the whole thing. When I retired eight years before, or ten years before, it was actually ten years, I People wanted someone, they wanted me to do it then and there, there and then. And I wasn't actually ready to kind of look back. I was ready to kind of just jump into something else, which was the club in Miami.

But then about two years out from my 10 year retirement kind of anniversary, we started to discuss it and talk about it and think, OK, maybe this is the right time. So I don't know. In all honesty, one of the reasons why I wanted to do the documentary was for my family. I wanted them to have something all in one place for them to watch and for them to look back and reminisce.

And that's what really we created. You know, there was a hell of a story there from, you know, the upbringing to the different clubs that I played for to the ups and the downs. And my career was always... kind of a roller coaster. But obviously, I was very lucky to be as successful as I was because of the teams that I played for and the teammates that I had.

In my wildest dreams, I couldn't have, you know, I wasn't expecting all of what has happened since we brought it out. But, you know, with Chasing the High, you know, I knew that once I finished my career, I kind of planned it 10 years out, you know, before I retired. I didn't know when I was going to retire, but I always knew that I needed to step into something new.

Well, I announced I had to actually be finished playing soccer. So when I signed for L.A., I put that in my contract so I could buy a franchise at the end of my time of playing in L.A., And luckily they gave it to me. And it was for half the price of what they were worth at the time. And then obviously six years later, I was able to announce it. And then I was playing in Paris.
