We saw you guys play in England like every Saturday. And I was just like, Hey, what's going on with this guy in Toronto, right? He signed Michael Bradley. He signed Jermaine Defoe. And he was like, oh, that's my buddy, Bez. He just left the league office. I was like, well, what did he do? He's like, well, he worked on contracts and salary budgets. He has a law background.

So I was really excited to go work at the league office. And I get to the league office, and it's really cool because you're working with different clubs on different issues all the time, right? So I got Bruce Arena yelling at me and telling me I'm dumb. No surprise. And then I've got Garth Loggerway in Salt Lake trying to pull an okey-doke on me with some technicality on a rule.

And it was really great and interesting. The one thing that just killed me, though, is that we weren't competing, right? Like Friday, five o'clock comes. you know, we're, we're dipped out on Monday. And after 10 years in baseball, the Yankees, I was, I, I missed that. Right. And I really believe this world breaks out like really cleanly into like, you know, two camps at different times.

And one of those is like, you're either a league person or a club person. Right. And there's, I was just like, man, I'm a club guy and I need to get back to a club. And that eventually turned into, you know, my, my time at LAFC.
