I'm good. I said I said your last name correctly purse. Yeah, thanks for coming by the show. I have not been to a national women's soccer league game as of yet. Okay. We can choose that. I need to make that happen for my daughter.

For sure. Daughter for you. What's wrong with you? Well, for me, but also for my, you know, I have a nine year old, so it's like she would be locked in. She loves it. She loves it. She loves soccer too. Oh, amazing. Yeah, it's a good game. We're really good. We're about to go into playoffs. We need to win.

To make sure that we go in, but we can get in with a little bit less, but we don't talk about that. Well, because yeah, we're not. You know, how long have you been on a Gotham FC?

I've been on Gotham. I think for three years. So I came from Portland. I got traded from Portland before that I was at Boston, but I really love Gotham. Gotham's amazing. Portland's amazing. They have a great, great fan base there too. They are very good. They call it soccer city. Yeah.

Yeah, not a lot to compete with though. There's no other sports. Well, they have the jobless areas, but you don't have like the Jets. I mean, the Jets, but the Jets, the Giants, the 19 different, three hockey teams, you know, everything. Absolutely.

Now, the sport is growing super fast, not just women's soccer, which has always had a lot of respect around the world, but just soccer in America in general is growing really fast.

Absolutely. I feel like after every World Cup, because the women's World Cup every four years happens, and after every World Cup, everyone's like, this is the time for women's soccer, but this time it actually feels like it's the time for women's soccer.

I mean, women are the top consumers. There's top producers of content and creation. And I think right now everyone's starting to actually just like recognize that there's so much here.

What were you as soccer, baby? Like was it from the very beginning, because I have a three year old, and I just started putting her in soccer and just like super into it.

But I know that there's some people start from really, really young, and so people get into it later on. Like what's your story? No, I've like did karate, and I figure skated.

Really? Yeah, and I played outside my brother. I played outside my brother. He played baseball. My dad was a baseball coach. I didn't get into it until a lot later. Okay.

And I just fell in love. I was like, this is sick. You're from Silver Spring, Maryland. Yeah, DMV. We're exactly in Silver Spring. What do you mean Silver Spring? No, we're exactly.

I'll tell you my address. I mean, you know, but there's different areas of Silver Spring. I mean, there's, there's, there's different, where do you go to high school? How about that?

Our Lady of Good Council. Oh, you went to Good Council. I went to BCC. Did you know that there's randomly asking about Silver Spring?

Yeah, yeah, I went to BCC. So Good Council is a private school. Good soccer team, right? We were amazing. Yeah, that's what I thought. Always very good.

Yeah, I was. How was your high school? You guys? Well, our girls sports are very good and no one wants to see our field hockey. We're like the best. We're known for field hockey. That's BCC.

Toting field hockey. Yes. Okay. Don't you? Oh, you're going to disrespect.

No, no. No one wants to celebrate. Listen, it was interesting choice. Our boys soccer teams pretty good. I don't know if our girls soccer teams particularly good now. But I'm just saying the field hockey program. I know.

I would. We beat you guys. Where would you where would you have gone to high school if you didn't go to private school? Do you know?

Blair? Yes. I would. You know. The aforementioned being from Silver Spring. I'm from I was born at Holy Cross Hospital. I grew up in Chevy Chase. I went to Bethesda, Chevy Chase. But I mean, I know I lived in Silver Spring. I was born at Holy Cross, too.

Where are you? Hey, you were born 16 years after me, but you were maybe same room. Um, how do I ask this gently? Not going hard, not the national team result you were looking for. Yeah.

And the criticism of your team is always through the roof for many reasons that we all know why people have made their political decisions about the women's national team.
