He became familiar with me, and he got very excited about me running the team, ... He offered me the job on April first, which is April Fool's Day, so I probably should have asked him if he was serious.

I realized I didn't want to be president, ... The first part was, I didn't want to deal with the media and with the nay-sayers that were saying soccer would never make it. The second part was I had gotten tired of some of the developing attitudes of the professional players. Some of these guys who are making 75 thousand bucks a year, and they're complaining about making appearances.

At the end of my second indoor season, my doctor told me, 'You're a bright guy, and you have an ankle that will keep deteriorating over time. We'll take away a lot of bone. My honest recommendation is that you move on,' ... At 23, that's a blow.

I'm looking forward to seeing New Orleans rebuilt. This is not a city that is going to vanish. ... I think this is a city that is going to come back better and stronger.

We're doing this because I think it's the right thing to do.

We want our season ticket holders to know that we appreciate their continued support and offering tickets to our preseason game against the Heat is a small token of that appreciation, ...
