Episode Notes
Steve Cherundolo joins Cobi to reflect on his journey from the U.S. to the Bundesliga, and why his path might have looked very different if today’s MLS academies existed back then. He opens up about when the game began to feel more like a job, the pressure of being an American abroad, the injury that followed his intense 2002 training push, and why fans may be feeling overwhelmed by a crowded soccer calendar. He closes with his love for the El Tráfico rivalry and what it means for the game today.
