| As a player I was always labeled as Rambo or the guy who crushed people at the back, ... You never really knew how the media thought of you. The fact that they voted me in on the first time, it's a real honor. |
| Being able to (come back) was a special moment, |
| Being here and realizing the gentlemen that are over here and the pre-NASL guys, I'm humbled and honored to be in the same group as you guys are in right now. |
| Gansler made it very clear, ... My role was to sit behind Tab and sit behind Harkes. He would say, 'Win the damn ball. Give it to them.' I said, 'I can do that. I've got no problem with that.' |
| Going into that stadium and getting a tie was phenomenal, ... That was the best we have played as a team being a man down. We knew we were doing a good job when we started knocking the ball around and the Mexican crowd was cheering 'Ole, Ole!!' That day, we left with the attitude that we were back in it again. |
| He was like a second father to me, |
| I have a hard time talking about myself. It was much more than just an individual, ... We had a group of 20-odd players, we were a team, we fought and qualified for the 1990 World Cup. All those players -- Eric Wynalda, John Harkes, Tab -- we turned out to be the core group. We sacrificed a lot to make sure that soccer took off.

| It's an honor to be inducted with a John Harkes and a Tab Ramos, ... They've done a lot for American soccer. I played with these guys my whole career, so it makes it even more special. It's kind of funny. Before the 1990 World Cup, Bob Gansler [then coach of the U.S. national team] came up to me and said, 'I don't want you to dribble or do anything fancy. Your job is to win the ball and give it to John or Tab.' I was like, 'Sure, no problem coach.' |
