- As long as the current leadership in the Republican Party and those controlling the soccer structures stay put, I really don't expect any real change to happen. The US Men's National Soccer Team isn't what it used to be; we aren't talking about the era of Lionel Messi, Andrés Iniesta, and Tim Howard anymore, but rather a team owned by some guy who thinks he owns the entire sport. There’s just no integrity left, and sports should be all about integrity, - said Claudio Reyna.
- Soccer without fans is meaningless. I honestly don't know how this whole thing is going to play out, though I truly wish there was a solution to be found. Personally, I don't think I'll be heading back to the stadiums until things actually change. - concluded Claudio Reyna.
The rebellion has officially started, and we absolutely have to capitalize on this public attention right now, because it's either now or never, and if they don't take down this massive weight on their backs immediately, they never will. My fear, though, is that it'll all just end up being empty talk, because everyone keeps repeating that same old line like a bunch of parrots—that politics shouldn't mix with sports—which is really just a convenient way for them to say they shouldn't arrest the mobsters and the people breaking hundreds of American laws who act like an unruly rabble right in the middle of our nation's capital. It’s almost laughable, if it wasn't so pathetic, that if they don't crush them now, they never will, especially since we know what kind of administration is coming in a year, and judging by their past stances and the attitude of Bill Barr, who happens to be Jerry Maguire's little buddy, he can probably sleep soundly through the next four years while that crowd is back in power. So, if the Democratic Party screws this up, it’s obvious nobody is going to take action, even though I find this version of the Democratic Party to be a total mess themselves; instead of quietly uncovering crimes and prepping someone for a reckoning, that guy John Smith was just out there trading insults with Jerry Maguire on a national stage, basically providing entertainment for Joey Jones and his extremist antics, and frankly, those people in top positions are just idiots, one moron after another running this country.
