Media Day with Dane Richards
March 25, 2008
MetroFanatic: Dane, how is your knee?
Dane Richards: It's getting better each and every day. I started jogging, so that's a good thing. I touched the ball today, so that's good. Rehab is going good so far.
MF: What's the timetable?
DR: I'm not really sure. I'm making improvement, but I'm not sure if it's gonna be quicker or on time.
MF: There were lots of things said about that tackle that took you out. Some were saying that our team wasn't prepared to play hard.
DR: We were prepared to play hard, it's soccer. You're gonna have hard tackles, hard play. But... I'd rather not comment on that game, actually. Every five seconds the whistle was blowing because of tackles. It wasn't what I was expecting, disappointed with the tackles, because there were two Red Bull teams.
MF: So no comment on that guy who took you out?
DR: No comment. If I comment, I could be fined. (laughs)
MF: I've been asking people about their three favorite things about Austria... and you are the perfect person to ask that.
DR: Three favorite things about Austria? (startled) Number one, the women. (laughs)
MF: That's good, we didn't get that one yet.
DR: Number two, the cars there. Number three, the Red Bull team, I went to their first team game, and that was pretty good.
