For me, it was the 2006 World Cup when I really became like, oh man, I'm obsessed with this.

I want more, I want as much of this as I can get.

And most of the US soccer fans I know, there's a World Cup story they've got somewhere

And they were like, man, once I got caught up in the emotion of that and realized how amazing the beautiful game is and the global nature of it, I couldn't get enough.

And so how many millions of Americans could you stand to win over if you go have a run that captivates the nation?

I mean, the U.S.

has only made a good run in the World Cup one time, and that was in 2002 in Korea, and the games were being played at 3 o'clock in the morning.

So...

there were the diehard soccer fans that were getting, but the casuals aren't waking up at two o'clock in the morning to watch those games, right?

This is on your home soil.

Games being played in prime time, you know, with the world watching.

I think that if they do something like that,

this country will be completely taken over by it.

And let's remember the calendar too.

The NBA finals will have been over by then.

The NHL finals will have been over by then.

And you're just going up against baseball at that point.

And you have a chance to really captivate the country.

So, I mean...

It's an incredible opportunity.
