yes. judah freelander whose upcoming book if rain drops were united , is in stores october 20th. so i m told you own two websites. one of which is called save the beautiful game.org. the other is f fifa.org. i can t say the full title. this is a family program. but you started these a while back. six years or so ago. so everyone knows that there s a problem with fifa. yeah i think if you re a true soccer football fan especially if you follow it internationally, after a while, and certainly when you re a kid, you may not realize it but when you become an adult, you start seeing all these things are going on. and yeah it s obvious that it s very corrupt organization. the one guy that did not get toppled in this latest round of charges is the head of fifa, whose name sepp blatter, a, can t be real. but also for soccer
heading, maybe we can create more technical to be soccer players that would have been better and maybe we would have won the world cup because we re that much more technically inclii inclin inclined. it s important for me as a former player and a parent that i do something to improve our game in the long run. and along with two former players, again, the sports legacy institute and the institute of sports law and ethics, we re working together to change those rules and hopefully u.s. soccer and the leagues across this country and hundreds of thousands of millions of kids will have that change in the game so that we can have healthier, safer fields. we can have kids that will stay in soccer longer and lead healthier lives once they re done with their career. judah, i need to thank you for your appearances on this
world cup and have been enjoying it, will now go to the stadium with that same enthusiasm and really bring sock tocer to the level. the fans have to be part of it, it s not just about the players. i hope the fans feel they re as important to the players to the development of soccer in this country. dave, i ve been asking a little bit about how do these players judah has narrated a great documentary on espn about the world cup, and we see the players on team usa making decisions should i play for germany or usa. and other players around the world have those choices because of their citizenship, which country they might want to play for. how do they end up where they end up? that s a great question. one website said what would every world cup look like if
deal with that. that s the unfortunate truth of sport. i ve got to say, the last time i even noticed soccer this this way was in 1999 when you won the women s world cup. that seemed to lift the game and its visibility, but for me, as someone who was really out of it, that didn t last very long, that sensation of, oh, look, soccer is really grabbing people. well, i think that was a different time. i think judah said something that s really valid, which is the media have caught attention to soccer. the outlets for soccer are much greater than they ever have been. social media has been a way to share the sport. but i think mls, the growth of mls in this country, the fact that half of the team of the men s usa team play in the mls, have given our players a lot of experience. what i m hoping is that the fans that have been watching the
program and for luring me in and getting me excited about watching today s game, which i really was. and it was a lot of fun. i understand why all those people watching with president obama, i now get it. and i didn t get it just, you know, days ago. so judah, thanks a lot for that. you re welcome. that s what heroes do. we give back to society and make america a better place. soccer is an emotional game. it s incredibly emotional. just because a score is 2-1, it s great. judah, always a winner. thanks for joining me tonight, dave and brandy, thank you also for joining me tonight. thank you. coming up, what does beyonce take your time with this question what does beyonce have to do with yesterday s supreme court ruling on contraception coverage in health plans? you don t know? tweet me your guesses and you will get the answer in tonight s
