Former U.S. Soccer secretary general Hank Steinbrecher and others spoke to my wife and son about and asked their permission, and they granted their permission without asking me. I don't know if it's appropriate, but I am honored.

I'm really honored to receive this lifetime achievement award.

It isn't easy to put all of the ingredients together and one of the key things is this is the first time there's been a real, significant governmental body participation. In our case, it's Collin County and the City of Frisco, the Frisco Economic Development group and the Frisco Independent School District. Those bodies, and Hunt Sports Group, obviously, put money into the project, and that has helped make it work.

The boys prep school I attended, the Hill School in Pottstown, Pa., had a varsity soccer team. I knew very little about soccer at the time, however, because it was the same season as our football, a sport that I played.

The most difficult part of the trip was the logistics - planes, trains, a rental car, taxis, buses, subways, lots of walking, we did it all.

I get asked this a lot: Why has soccer not succeeded? My answer is, soccer has succeeded. It is already the fastest growing youth participation sport in the U.S. It has already succeeded at the youth level, no question.

Instead of scrambling for secondary dates, we control the dates in the stadium.

I've certainly never seen or heard of anything like this,

You can't compare a Super Bowl crowd, which tends to be more polite and a little more neutral to that. The Super Bowl only has 7,000 to 8,000 fans for each team.

He is not someone who went off to play in Europe and only a few Americans follow. He has the potential to be on magazine covers and more newspaper coverage.

The benefits of a stadium are enormous,

Things haven't gone our way. Maybe if we were in the NFC, we'd be right in the thick of it. Actually, I'm just kidding about that.

Well, we've made huge strides since the 1990 World Cup, USA '94, and obviously since '98. Unfortunately, those strides only register with the public once every four years.

The equality of play was a surprise-it was the most competitive race in the seven-year history of MLS.

We're looking at ideas to remodel Arrowhead Stadium. It's 30 years old and it's not a good American soccer stadium. We're looking at ways to improve Arrowhead-which is oriented for NFL games--for our spectators.

You just don't continually sue your business partners like he has. That causes me some problems.

Each of these individuals have been significant contributors to the game we see today and most importantly the long range growth of the game. We look forward to greeting each of these individuals at the time of their proud induction in the TEXANS CREDIT UNION WALK OF FAME at Pizza Hut Park.
