We could do an entire podcast on this.
So I'm gonna try to be more concise in the way I explain this.
They have become commoditized in a way that it's predatory and it's on the parents.
Every single sport is basketball, football, baseball.
Parents are getting charged so much money for these kids to have these opportunities.
It's no, you're just creating environments to get people to pay more money without having real tangible benefits.
So
If at a very high level, if I try to summarize this, I think what we can do in the United States is have the elite academies, the top clubs, which we're doing at MLS.
We have pathways for players, but they have to, in many ways, pay for the development at the lower levels.
If you develop a player, if you're a club in Kansas, Los Angeles, Texas, and you develop a kid, Christian Pulisic, you should be paid for that.
You should be given money to support your club.
supporting players and developing players so i can go on and on and on about this we need to do more we need to make soccer cheaper we're on the way we have growth don't don't get don't get twisted in our just our national team performances a lot of fun listening to you guys you and john uh good luck are you nervous like how nervous are you compared to when you played
Nothing will replace what it was like to step on the field and play the game.
But my first World Cup final in 2018, I had the nerves a little bit.
Now it's just pure excitement.
I think this has become my job.
It's become my life.
I love doing it, much like you do.
I can hear that in all of your stuff.
You've been in media for a long time.
