- Start date
This is tonight in case anyone is interested.
I'll be there so if you spot me say hello.
Can an athlete’s focus on the field translate to everyday life? Pro soccer star turned coach Patrick Vieira sits down with neuroscientist John Krakauer to discuss how we can apply the determination, precision, and strategy of competitive sports to our daily challenges.

You have to think, why Patrick Vieira? The NBA and NFL is in offseason in New York. Soccer and Vieira aren't the biggest figures with speaking talent in the city for sport. Wonder if he's getting a speaking fee. He was on the Men in Blazers Golden Blazer event. I wonder what other philanthropic, cultural events he's asked to attend or attends in the city. Get him to the Met Gala!

F and H are one key away on the keyboard...

People still think Kreis is a good manager
This is from a few months after Vieira started in 2016. TED talk at LFNY, surprisingly in English.
A great 5 minute interview between Grant Wahl and Patrick Vieira. You can sign up for a seven day free trial and then cancel if you have Amazon Prime.
- Improvements for 2018 include winning when not playing well, being more ruthless in front of goal, being more solid.
- Wants to sign a DP and the club is looking for one. Doesn't go into age of player whether older or younger. Wants a player that fits as a player and a person. Also says that a DP really isn't a difference maker in MLS considering the level of the league. (Disagree completely with this last point.)
- Thinks Giovanni Reyna has the talent and wants the club to provide him the facilities to improve and play professional. (We may see a homegrown contract.)

In 2017, it was a French club rumor.
In 2018, it will be an Italian club rumor.
