Steve Purdy quotes:

For me the top music though has to be Rock or Hip Hop and artists like Kanye West.

I love, I absolutely, love the Office and Curb your Enthusiasm. Those are just classic shows.

I know in college, a player is playing for something every year so it is constantly competitive while in residency although you're playing with the top players in your age, you don't have many competitions other than the U-17 or U-20 World Cups.

I ended up as an American Studies Major but my real interest was architecture.

I love the city and the people of Munich. I have many great friends there.

I really wanted to go to architecture school but the demands of playing D-1 Collegiate soccer just take over so I tried to empathize architecture as much as I could.

I also think that Germany helped me with my aggressiveness.

I play defense and I'm a unique defender because I'm tall and slim but I also have great speed.

I would say that my strength is my speed and my ability to win head balls.

I'm pretty open to all music. Its pretty funny because I've spent time in Germany and now I'm in Dallas where Country is a big thing. I used to hate it but now I can actually go through a song.

Obviously, after the match your fans come up to you and really look but to you but you don't get too much recognition around town for playing for FC Dallas.

I'm just trying to get as good as I can get, I am still young but there is always room to learn so I spend a lot of time watching players in other leagues to get better.
