You've seen in the movie Babylon with Brad Pitt, Physical with Rose Byrne, his own show Robbie, a Max-Comedy-Special, Religion, Sex and a Few Things in Between, and his brilliant half-documentary, half-stand-up-special, Live Without Fear. It's Rory Scovel, everybody. Rory, welcome. Thank you.
Hey Rory, just by looking at your face, you've been in Denver for three months.
That is such a good guess, but you are right. Yeah, it is freezing today. Du hast dein Gilet an, du hast eine Jacket an, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist.
Let's start first with your connection to soccer. We like to tie everything back here to the global game. How did you start playing? I believe you played college at UCF and then went to go play in South Carolina. How did your football journey come about?
I started playing at five years old and then started doing club around like 11, I think. And then that carried me through, you know, club and high school and then college. I started at Central Florida for a semester and then transferred back in state to South Carolina, University of South Carolina, Spartanburg, now called USC Upstate.
What is Rory Scovel's connection to soccer?
So I went from D1 UCF to D2 and now USC Upstate, I think is D, I know for a fact, they're D1 now.
Ich glaube, es ist so natürlich, dass es mit der Bildung verbunden ist. Aber ich denke, die USA haben angefangen zu lernen, dass...
How did Rory Scovel's soccer journey begin?
Es ist nicht langfristig nötig, das so zu tun. Ich denke, sie haben begonnen zu verstehen, dass die Bildung das echte Spiel ist und das Spiel auf einem sehr jungen Niveau zu lernen. Und du lernst es auf einem hohen Niveau und machst das eine Art Akademie, in die du gehst. Aber ja, hier war es wie in der Schule. Und du versuchst, eine Scholarschaft zu bekommen. Du versuchst, gut genug zu sein, dass du sagst, hey, wir spielen auf unserem Team, wir geben dir Geld, um es zu machen. Es ist alles so verbunden. Aber ich weiß nicht, dass es langfristig die klugste Art ist, es zu machen. Besonders, wenn man es auf internationaler Ebene für Konkurrenz macht. Ich weiß nicht, ob es großartig ist, Erfolg zu bauen.
Also würde ich dich dann fragen, war Sport fast wie dein Fahrzeug, um in eine große Universität zu kommen? Ich glaube, meine Frage wäre, weil manchmal... Das ist ein anderer interessanter Punkt.
Was du da zu sagen hast, hast du Fußball verabschiedet, um Bildung zu bekommen?
Hast du Fußball wie eine Bitch verabschiedet? Sag es mal.
Ja.
Were you disrespectful of this global sport? I mean, what actually I'm trying to say is, there are a remarkable number of people that play soccer at a high level that aren't really fans of it. They're fans of this thing that they're good at that's a vehicle for them to get to college.
