I am excited to bring my deep knowledge, passion and expertise of soccer in this country to The New York Cosmos. They truly represent where this sport is headed on a national and international level, and I want to make history with them.

I never thought I'd play soccer past high school, so to go from that team to actually being most-capped and three World Cups is pretty special.

Traveling is not a hindrance for me; it's something I actually enjoy.

You want to teach the next generation so they can learn a little bit faster and a little bit more so everything becomes that much better.

I turned 24 in the middle of my first World Cup and it was quite an unbelievable experience. It's really hard for words to do it justice.

Looking back now at my first World Cup experience, I didn't know what was going on. I was a newbie and I had no idea what to expect.

Being out in the heat for two weeks can definitely drain your energy.
