Hi everyone! Welcome to my weplay blog. I'm very excited to start playing around on weplay.com, start getting to know lots of new people and sharing my love of all sports with everyone! This is going to be such a good time, I know it already. Mostly I'm looking forward to connecting with new friends, keeping in touch with my old ones, and talking soccer with all of you!

I know I'm just getting going on here, but I just posted some pics of me - check them out and definitely post comments. These pictures are of me as a kid, and yeah, that was quite a while ago! I sometimes forget what great hair I had then :) But what's even harder to believe is that my son, Jaden, is going to be running around on the field in just a few years. I hope I can keep up with him then. Well, let's not rush things yet - he is going to be two years old this summer. Time sure flies.

This is truly going to be a big year coming up, especially with the Olympics. The 2004 games in Athens was truly one of the best experiences of my life. Representing your country is something I had the honor of doing a number of times, but bringing home a gold medal is a once-in-a-lifetime thing. Of course, I'll be cheering on the U.S.A. and many of my former teammates.

Until then, I'll probably be here. So I hope you'll join me and post pictures and videos of you playing sports. Can't wait to see them. And don't forget to add me as your friend, too. I can't wait to be weplay buddies with you!

See you on the pitch....
