I loved it when I played with it, but then it was bang average.
And then the new logo, which is just amazing.

It is cool.

You were part of the centennial year, weren't you?
Were you playing?
So that's 2000.
Yes.
And so the crest, and I remember US Soccer telling me this, because we used a crest that was a throwback.
And I was like, this is amazing.
We should be using this.
And they had told me that they rented it or leased it from USA Rugby.
I think it was a USA Rugby logo from like yesteryear.
I don't know exactly what year.
And so it wasn't like a standard crest that we could use.
It's cool.
So I think for me and every living, breathing soccer fan, the denim kit, the away kit in 94 was like – it was the first time our guys were on the world stage.
In 90 they were, but this was at home in our face.
It was so radical to have what looked like a denim shirt and sort of the iconic wins that they had.
