Mutanda KweseleGUEST
And even in this country, we have examples.
Mutanda KweseleGUEST
Demarcus Beasley, the story of Demarcus Beasley, because he hits all the points.
Mutanda KweseleGUEST
Demarcus Beasley, from Fort Wayne, Indiana, black player, black kid, Demarcus Beasley is a twig of a man.
Mutanda KweseleGUEST
He's skinny guy.
Mutanda KweseleGUEST
He's like 160 pounds, right? He's like five foot 10, five foot 11.
Mutanda KweseleGUEST
Demarcus Beasley played at the highest level, made three world cups.
Mutanda KweseleGUEST
He's probably an unsung, unheralded legend of this game in this country.
Mutanda KweseleGUEST
But here's the kicker.
David GassHOST
I remember sort of like trying to find the Spanish language feed of PSV Eidenhoven's Champions League games because Um, because Pavel Pardo, no, no, uh, who was Carlos Salcedo was on PSV.
David GassHOST
So I could watch DeMarcus Beasley, right? It was, it was this like hunt for a long time.
David GassHOST
And now we're in this golden era.
David GassHOST
It feels like if it's fair to say that, I guess is more my question of Americans playing abroad.
20 MINS LATER
David GassHOST
The goal scoring this weekend.
David GassHOST
Great.
David GassHOST
But that is what we are talking about, which is DeMarcus Beasley had 22 appearances in the way for Champions League across for the most part PSV, Eindhoven and Rangers.
David GassHOST
Jermaine Jones had 23 for the most part with Schalke.
Robert KerrHOST
thank you for joining us as always and part of the wonderful weekend that was at ultra fest was knowing that in large part almost exclusively it was due to you guys supporting this show that made all of those awesome things happen over the weekend And as I was kind of reviewing our Monday debrief, I remembered a moment that kind of went under the radar.
Robert KerrHOST
So we talked about how one of our giveaways during Ultra Fest was signed DeMarcus Beasley gear that we acquired through the merch shop.
Robert KerrHOST
And then the gentleman who won the signed soccer ball, it was a deflated soccer ball with DeMarcus Beasley, American Legends name on it.
Robert KerrHOST
I saw him later on in a picture wearing it as a hat, just effortlessly, the deflated soccer ball as a hat.
Robert KerrHOST
It was just an
Robert KerrHOST
Probably not the
Jason DavisHOST
first person to do that.
Jason DavisHOST
Maybe the first person to ever wear a signed DeMarcus Beasley ball as a hat, but not the first person I would imagine to think this deflated soccer ball would be nice on top of my head.
Jason DavisHOST
And I'm looking at it and I'm like, okay, let me look at this.
Jason DavisHOST
Does that say Beasley? Oh, you have signed DeMarcus Beasley gear that you brought for this gear swap.
Jason DavisHOST
And I look at Amanda.
Jason DavisHOST
I'm like, I don't think I feel comfortable with them swapping this for like a sticker or something.
Jason DavisHOST
I was like, okay, these are special items.
Jason DavisHOST
We shouldn't merch swap these.
Jason DavisHOST
If you're willing to donate, and they said they had two other DeMarcus Beasley signed items at home that they didn't bring.
Jason DavisHOST
So I was like, okay, if you're donating, if you want to...
David HerdHOST
So there was...
David HerdHOST
The two subs that come on Beasley and Naismith, when you look at the other ones that were on the bench that day, Roy Carroll, Andy Fye, Demarcus Beasley, Stephen Whittaker, Stephen Lennon and Paul Elmsley.
David HerdHOST
There was no Boyd, there was no Darshville anywhere.
Stephen MillarGUEST
I presume they must have been injured.
Alexi LalasHOST
But that was almost kind of like an...
Alexi LalasHOST
I know Landon and DaMarcus Beasley kind of came of, uh, age there, but there was still more of an ending as opposed to the, a beginning or a transitioning, and I think this transition that we are seeing happen right here.
Alexi LalasHOST
First off, I don't want you to stop being excited.
Alexi LalasHOST
I've said time and time again, it, it's so much more fun to be excited.
Alexi LalasHOST
But I also think it's kind of...
Alexi LalasHOST
It, it's all wrapped up into the pathways that we have, how far the professional game has come, you know, the academies that we have, the resources, the coaching, all of that other stuff combined together.
Alexi LalasHOST
And again, as opposed to a Landon Donovan coming out of 2002, um, you know, or, or DaMarcus Beasley coming out, that certainly had wonderful careers.
Alexi LalasHOST
Yeah, I, I, I'll, I'll argue that it- That you're right and that there has not been a time where, where we have been more optimistic.
Robert KerrHOST
And of course, uh, this time next week we'll be headed to Fort Wayne for UltraFest.
Robert KerrHOST
Uh, we're gonna be visiting the sport- uh, the Fort Wayne Sport Club, a 99-year-old, uh, social and sport club there, where, uh, we're gonna hopefully see a picture of Demarcus Beasley as a child, and then, uh, th- 'cause there's a whole wall of memorabilia.
Robert KerrHOST
Anyone connected to Indiana soccer seems to have come through Sport Club in, in Fort Wayne.
Robert KerrHOST
And then a full day of activities on the 24th, and fingers crossed, uh, the most famous soccer player for Fort Wayne will be joining us at UltraFest as well.
Robert KerrHOST
There's a possibility of, uh, old, uh, old Demarcus maybe.
Robert KerrHOST
I don't wanna get out over my skis, but there's a chance that we'll have, uh, Demarcus Beasley on the show next week.
Robert KerrHOST
So you got any parting shots before we, uh, uh, say adieu to the crowd here, Chris?
Chris WilsonHOST
Yeah.
Jay DeMeritGUEST
...
Jay DeMeritGUEST
Carlos, Carlos Bocanegra and DaMarcus Beasley used to come in there.
JBHOST
Oh.
Jay DeMeritGUEST
And they were 19.
Jay DeMeritGUEST
...
Jay DeMeritGUEST
Fire at the time.
Jay DeMeritGUEST
And I remember, 'cause I, my first cap, when I went up to DaMarcus Beasley and I said, "I've served you a drink before." And he goes, "What?" And I said, "You were on the Chicago Fire, and you had just signed for 19 years old." I was their same age.
Jay DeMeritGUEST
Like, again-
Alexi LalasHOST
On the cover of Sports Illustrated back in 1994, and then went on to be sporting director for the United States, uh, Soccer Federation.
Alexi LalasHOST
Um, you know, y- then you get into your, your Eddie Popes and your DeMarcus Beasley's.
Alexi LalasHOST
And oh, by the way, and he mentioned it, Freddy Adu.
Alexi LalasHOST
Literally the thing that you are whining about and saying doesn't happen, happened.
Tosin MakindeGUEST
We also have always had players go overseas.
Tosin MakindeGUEST
Tim Howard, the goalkeepers, Brad Field, there's always been Teller, Guccionevo, Demarcus Beasley, Leonard Donovan.
Tosin MakindeGUEST
The list goes on and on and on about these players.
Tosin MakindeGUEST
There's players you never heard of.
