WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:01.840
<v Speaker 1>I wish I had like a drum roll or something,

2
00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:03.640
<v Speaker 1>but I don't have a drum roll ready, and then

3
00:00:03.680 --> 00:00:05.559
<v Speaker 1>I'd have to jack up the volume. It's time to

4
00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:09.400
<v Speaker 1>talk about something really really cool between KSA and SBBGG

<v Speaker 1>ruther Firth in in the Bundesliga. So we bring in

00:00:20.079 --> 00:00:20.359
<v Speaker 2>we go.

9
00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:24.960
<v Speaker 1>So gentlemen, Hi, and welcome on a Friday. The chaos

10
00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:25.839
<v Speaker 1>has already started.

11
00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:29.480
<v Speaker 3>Hi, thanks for having us.

12
00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:33.240
<v Speaker 1>All right, So, uh, this is a really cool relationship

13
00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:37.159
<v Speaker 1>and I'm going to start with with Timo, considering you

14
00:00:37.159 --> 00:00:38.399
<v Speaker 1>have been the one who has.

15
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:39.759
<v Speaker 2>Traveled the farthest here.

16
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:43.920
<v Speaker 1>How did this relationship with ruther Firth and KSA come

17
00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:44.119
<v Speaker 1>to be?

18
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:45.719
<v Speaker 2>What was the first conversations?

19
00:00:45.799 --> 00:00:45.880
<v Speaker 4>Like?

20
00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:53.399
<v Speaker 5>Well, it started with the mutual passion for using football

21
00:00:53.719 --> 00:00:56.679
<v Speaker 5>more than just a gab, you know, as a way

22
00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:02.079
<v Speaker 5>to teach values and open doors for young people playing soccer.

23
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:06.719
<v Speaker 4>And when we were introduced to Colunty Soccer Academy, it

24
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:10.000
<v Speaker 4>was immediately clear that they are doing something real special

25
00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:14.760
<v Speaker 4>over here in Atlanta because they are working developing not

26
00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:20.000
<v Speaker 4>only young players, of young people, you know, and giving

27
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:25.519
<v Speaker 4>them discipline, respect and ambition and met aligned perfectly without

28
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:28.799
<v Speaker 4>club philosophy in Germany of the sweet run in Row First.

29
00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:32.359
<v Speaker 1>So kareem, how far back are we talking? How far

30
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:35.480
<v Speaker 1>back do we know that these conversations started to get

31
00:01:35.480 --> 00:01:37.359
<v Speaker 1>to this point to where we are with Ruth First

32
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:39.040
<v Speaker 1>and ks.

33
00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:42.000
<v Speaker 6>It's been really recent, you know, it's been about a

34
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:47.120
<v Speaker 6>few months as I've been also nominated as one of

35
00:01:47.120 --> 00:01:48.920
<v Speaker 6>the director of the program here in Georgia.

36
00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:50.519
<v Speaker 7>So yeah, it's pretty recent.

37
00:01:52.120 --> 00:01:54.640
<v Speaker 2>And so what is it? What was kream? What was

38
00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:57.519
<v Speaker 2>the first date? Like? What was what were those first conversations?

39
00:01:57.560 --> 00:01:57.640
<v Speaker 4>Like?

40
00:01:57.799 --> 00:01:59.319
<v Speaker 2>Was it long? Over? Was it over?

41
00:01:59.439 --> 00:01:59.760
<v Speaker 5>Zoom?

42
00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:03.319
<v Speaker 1>Was was it conversations? Was it meals breaking bread? What

43
00:02:03.400 --> 00:02:05.079
<v Speaker 1>was what was what was the first date?

44
00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:06.000
<v Speaker 2>Like with you two?

45
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.000
<v Speaker 7>So to be honest, Scotch Bruno the owner of KSA.

46
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:14.159
<v Speaker 6>He is the one who was in relation with mister Lynch, right,

47
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:19.439
<v Speaker 6>So mister Lynch was working with with Firth and he

48
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:21.639
<v Speaker 6>was taking care of one of the ks players that

49
00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:27.240
<v Speaker 6>was in Germany, Fraser his name, and Fraser wanted listen

50
00:02:27.319 --> 00:02:30.159
<v Speaker 6>to mister Lynch if you need anything in Atlanta. I

51
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:33.680
<v Speaker 6>know a great club there And the coincidence was that

52
00:02:34.439 --> 00:02:37.960
<v Speaker 6>Firth and mister Lynch were working with Hoffmann. So Offman

53
00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:40.560
<v Speaker 6>is the company that is here in Atlanta, and they

54
00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:44.879
<v Speaker 6>made the link. Mister Robin came about two months ago.

55
00:02:45.319 --> 00:02:48.000
<v Speaker 6>He saw how we were working, how we're you know,

56
00:02:48.120 --> 00:02:51.719
<v Speaker 6>educating the kids. The intensity of practice KSA is really

57
00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:55.400
<v Speaker 6>close to the European style, the European mentality that we

58
00:02:55.520 --> 00:03:00.680
<v Speaker 6>really trying in Cooke here in American soccer. And then

59
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:05.960
<v Speaker 6>after that it was really natural to link our passion

60
00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:10.680
<v Speaker 6>and really the the ambition to create a path for

61
00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:14.199
<v Speaker 6>the players from America to Europe.

62
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:18.960
<v Speaker 1>Timo Schieler from SBVGG grew through birth and kareem to

63
00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:20.919
<v Speaker 1>me me from KSA hanging out with It's your Batton

64
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:24.039
<v Speaker 1>leadoff on the morning show. So, Timo, when when you

65
00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:27.639
<v Speaker 1>came across this relationship with KSA to begin with, what

66
00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:30.719
<v Speaker 1>has it been like to see that the that the

67
00:03:30.759 --> 00:03:33.479
<v Speaker 1>relationship can grow over the ocean, that they can be

68
00:03:33.560 --> 00:03:36.960
<v Speaker 1>this mutual thing where okay, you have your philosophy, we

69
00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:37.479
<v Speaker 1>have ours.

70
00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:38.120
<v Speaker 2>It meshes.

71
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:40.199
<v Speaker 1>What's it like to see that kind of a relationship

72
00:03:40.199 --> 00:03:43.319
<v Speaker 1>and that kind of kindred spirit well, you know.

73
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:48.639
<v Speaker 4>As Kareem said, it didn't require a long discussion in

74
00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:52.120
<v Speaker 4>our club when we started thinking about that, because from

75
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:54.520
<v Speaker 4>the first in the action, it fell right and it

76
00:03:54.599 --> 00:03:57.240
<v Speaker 4>feld it was the right thing to do. And we

77
00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:01.240
<v Speaker 4>saw the the.

78
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:03.400
<v Speaker 3>And thin a tegrity behind KSA's work, and we knew that.

79
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:07.520
<v Speaker 4>The kind of partner we researched for it, we want it.

80
00:04:07.919 --> 00:04:11.199
<v Speaker 4>And also thanks to the support of Postmon which is

81
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:13.639
<v Speaker 4>our main sponsor in Germany, you have the name on

82
00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:18.040
<v Speaker 4>our jerseys and they are a value sponsors even in

83
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:22.480
<v Speaker 4>the United States, sitting here in Atlanta as well. And

84
00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:24.759
<v Speaker 4>so that was the reason we were able to move

85
00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:29.000
<v Speaker 4>forward very quickly, and of course with the real commitment

86
00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:31.639
<v Speaker 4>to the to the topic, which is very important for

87
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:32.560
<v Speaker 4>both of us.

88
00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:38.079
<v Speaker 1>You mentioned commitment, and you mentioned philosophy and personality and

89
00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:42.920
<v Speaker 1>all of that. Uh, when the club I know has

90
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:45.800
<v Speaker 1>a grand vision of how they would like these things

91
00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:48.560
<v Speaker 1>to be, how these how these relationships can come about

92
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:52.040
<v Speaker 1>and grow and and continue to grow the game in

93
00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:57.040
<v Speaker 1>a perfect world, what is gruther Firth looking for as

94
00:04:57.079 --> 00:05:00.600
<v Speaker 1>it continues to grow its footprints and grow the game?

95
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:03.240
<v Speaker 1>What is the club looking forward to the most in

96
00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:05.279
<v Speaker 1>these relationships.

97
00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:07.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, we are.

98
00:05:08.360 --> 00:05:10.120
<v Speaker 4>Even we are a one hundred and twenty year old

99
00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:12.879
<v Speaker 4>club founded in nineteen oh three and the playing in

100
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:20.560
<v Speaker 4>the German Sundesliga. We are we are, We care about

101
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:23.959
<v Speaker 4>the people and we didn't come over with the idea

102
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:26.600
<v Speaker 4>to know it better because we are a German professional

103
00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:32.120
<v Speaker 4>soccer club and soccer a long tradition in Germany. We

104
00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:36.199
<v Speaker 4>used to learn from from Atlanta, from from Ksa, from

105
00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:40.680
<v Speaker 4>from Atlanta's people. It's culture. Because we don't pretend that

106
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:43.920
<v Speaker 4>we know what it's best. We want to we want

107
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:45.959
<v Speaker 4>to get in contact. We want to listen to the people,

108
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:50.800
<v Speaker 4>understand and build something meaningful together in order to build

109
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:52.879
<v Speaker 4>a foundation to go the next step.

110
00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:55.399
<v Speaker 3>And of course it would be.

111
00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:59.120
<v Speaker 4>Great, it would be a dream for see sometime a

112
00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:02.680
<v Speaker 4>young player coming from Atlanta over to Third and wearing

113
00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:06.839
<v Speaker 4>our jersey and playing as a professional soccer player in Germany,

114
00:06:07.399 --> 00:06:13.560
<v Speaker 4>whether in our club or in another. But that's far away. Yeah,

115
00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:17.600
<v Speaker 4>to start from, we're here to building bridges to understand

116
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:20.720
<v Speaker 4>the culture and to get in touch with each other

117
00:06:21.240 --> 00:06:23.680
<v Speaker 4>and to care about the people, because that's the most

118
00:06:23.720 --> 00:06:26.439
<v Speaker 4>important thing. That the philosophy of our club and the

119
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:28.600
<v Speaker 4>Ksa here in Atlanta.

120
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:31.800
<v Speaker 1>Kareem, what excites you the most and what excites k

121
00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:33.040
<v Speaker 1>say the most about this?

122
00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:36.879
<v Speaker 6>So me personally, I said, it was excitingly the most.

123
00:06:36.920 --> 00:06:40.600
<v Speaker 6>It's I'm from Europe. I'm from France. I came twenty

124
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:44.639
<v Speaker 6>twenty here in America, and you know, as everyone knows,

125
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:47.279
<v Speaker 6>soccer is growing here in America. So I think is

126
00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:51.360
<v Speaker 6>the right time, the right place to really focus on

127
00:06:51.439 --> 00:06:54.959
<v Speaker 6>these sports and to give opportunity to the kids and

128
00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:58.560
<v Speaker 6>also to the underprivileged kids. That's why kaid do mostly

129
00:06:59.079 --> 00:07:01.319
<v Speaker 6>that's what we know or here in Georgia. It's really

130
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:05.319
<v Speaker 6>to give the opportunity to the younger players that unfortunately

131
00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:07.519
<v Speaker 6>they don't have the finance to be able to get

132
00:07:07.560 --> 00:07:10.800
<v Speaker 6>an academy to play soccer, and also to give them

133
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:15.319
<v Speaker 6>the opportunity to dream, you know, about playing professional and

134
00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:16.399
<v Speaker 6>maybe in Europe.

135
00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:19.240
<v Speaker 7>And also it's an honor of course to have a.

136
00:07:19.160 --> 00:07:23.720
<v Speaker 6>Club like like rut Firth to be able to sustain that.

137
00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:28.319
<v Speaker 6>And and like you said, they came really humbly, you know,

138
00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:31.040
<v Speaker 6>really to watch our culture because of course.

139
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:34.040
<v Speaker 7>It's a different continent, it's a different philosophy. Here it's

140
00:07:34.040 --> 00:07:36.000
<v Speaker 7>soccer there, it's football.

141
00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:40.680
<v Speaker 6>So so yeah, that's really something that is coming naturally.

142
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:43.439
<v Speaker 7>I would say it's the beginning of it, to be.

143
00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:46.720
<v Speaker 6>Honest with Shoot's my first time putting a face on Timo,

144
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:49.639
<v Speaker 6>my first time seeing him. I would see later on

145
00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:52.360
<v Speaker 6>the three event. Yeah, yeah, you've been busy. He came

146
00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:55.040
<v Speaker 6>two days ago. You had meetings and meetings and meetings,

147
00:07:57.040 --> 00:07:59.680
<v Speaker 6>you know. So so yeah, it's a pleasure. I will

148
00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:04.000
<v Speaker 6>see today tonight on the three v three event. And

149
00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:07.360
<v Speaker 6>I've seen other coaches as well from the club and

150
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:10.519
<v Speaker 6>it's only been great. And I'm also learning, you know,

151
00:08:10.519 --> 00:08:13.160
<v Speaker 6>a lot of things sharing and it's all about that

152
00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:15.399
<v Speaker 6>at the end. After when you do the right things,

153
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:17.720
<v Speaker 6>the right things come by themselves.

154
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:20.639
<v Speaker 1>And I do want to talk about the three v

155
00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:23.079
<v Speaker 1>three event before we get out of here, so folks

156
00:08:23.079 --> 00:08:24.319
<v Speaker 1>can go and see what's going on.

157
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:28.079
<v Speaker 2>How much of a learning experienced Temo has it been

158
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:28.600
<v Speaker 2>for you.

159
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:31.199
<v Speaker 1>I know that literally apparently you've only been here for

160
00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:33.720
<v Speaker 1>forty eight hours. But obviously there have been conversations and

161
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:38.240
<v Speaker 1>such about how you want ruther Firth to impact what's

162
00:08:38.279 --> 00:08:40.720
<v Speaker 1>going on here, how you like kas say, the impact

163
00:08:40.759 --> 00:08:44.879
<v Speaker 1>what's going on over there in Germany, whether it's with personnel, personality, philosophy.

164
00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:46.960
<v Speaker 1>What have you How much of an education has it

165
00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:48.200
<v Speaker 1>been for you and the club.

166
00:08:49.440 --> 00:08:53.039
<v Speaker 4>Well, we've learned that the great football and work is

167
00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:55.919
<v Speaker 4>happening all over the world and sometimes in.

168
00:08:56.000 --> 00:09:00.840
<v Speaker 3>Places that get overlooked in the global spotlight. Yeah on soccer.

169
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:05.240
<v Speaker 4>But KSA has shown us what it means to truly

170
00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:09.320
<v Speaker 4>support young people and not just becoming better players, but

171
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:14.639
<v Speaker 4>becoming strong individuals. And that is one important thing for

172
00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:16.840
<v Speaker 4>our youth development because if you if you are a

173
00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:19.480
<v Speaker 4>soccer club and you work with four to five hundred

174
00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:23.840
<v Speaker 4>kids and youth players, for sure not each of them

175
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:25.879
<v Speaker 4>will become a professional soccer player.

176
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:28.039
<v Speaker 3>So we're looking.

177
00:09:27.879 --> 00:09:31.919
<v Speaker 4>To give them the skills, to give them the values

178
00:09:32.159 --> 00:09:34.799
<v Speaker 4>that they can make it in lives wherever life may

179
00:09:34.879 --> 00:09:37.960
<v Speaker 4>take them, even if they are not becoming a professional

180
00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:41.279
<v Speaker 4>soccer player, you know. And that's our mission at the

181
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:44.720
<v Speaker 4>street itembroiderfill two. And that's the way KSA is looking

182
00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:49.320
<v Speaker 4>on developing young young players. Feel hungry and uh the

183
00:09:49.320 --> 00:09:54.080
<v Speaker 4>most important thing to build characters. Yeah, with resilient opportunity,

184
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:57.000
<v Speaker 4>giving and target in life so they can take it

185
00:09:57.120 --> 00:09:59.440
<v Speaker 4>wherever life takes them.

186
00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:03.440
<v Speaker 1>What is it like Timo for the club to to

187
00:10:03.759 --> 00:10:08.559
<v Speaker 1>have a relationship that seemed to be really quick in

188
00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:12.200
<v Speaker 1>coming together, that seems to be out of the blocks,

189
00:10:12.279 --> 00:10:16.240
<v Speaker 1>to be a relationship that is very symbiotic, that there

190
00:10:16.320 --> 00:10:18.200
<v Speaker 1>is the same kind of messaging. What's it like to

191
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:20.840
<v Speaker 1>stumble across a partner like this and have things happen

192
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:22.399
<v Speaker 1>as quickly as this seems to have.

193
00:10:23.720 --> 00:10:28.639
<v Speaker 3>Well, of course, because you're a small club, not too

194
00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:34.720
<v Speaker 3>much of stuff, so the quickness overturned a.

195
00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:39.120
<v Speaker 4>Little bit, and it's very very very hard to to

196
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:42.320
<v Speaker 4>get you things keep them going and all the all

197
00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:45.600
<v Speaker 4>the networking doing over here, talking with Posmon and the

198
00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:51.559
<v Speaker 4>department they have over here in Atlanta, and after all,

199
00:10:53.200 --> 00:10:58.559
<v Speaker 4>I think that the developing the talent is one of

200
00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:04.000
<v Speaker 4>our our most space in Burg in Germany, and KSA

201
00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:08.080
<v Speaker 4>has the same focus over here and also Atlanta United,

202
00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:09.919
<v Speaker 4>which we will meet on match day on Saturday.

203
00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:13.919
<v Speaker 3>It's focused on that because you have to.

204
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:17.480
<v Speaker 4>Get the young players out of out of nothing, maybe

205
00:11:17.559 --> 00:11:19.159
<v Speaker 4>you have to find it, you have to educate them,

206
00:11:19.159 --> 00:11:21.519
<v Speaker 4>you have to develop them then making them ready to

207
00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:23.120
<v Speaker 4>getting any professional.

208
00:11:23.080 --> 00:11:24.759
<v Speaker 3>Sports and professional soccer in.

209
00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:29.639
<v Speaker 4>Our in our lives. So that is always a big

210
00:11:29.759 --> 00:11:31.559
<v Speaker 4>asset and you don't have much time. You have to

211
00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:34.919
<v Speaker 4>be the first, You have to be fast, because otherwise

212
00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:37.000
<v Speaker 4>another club will.

213
00:11:36.600 --> 00:11:39.080
<v Speaker 3>Get those talents. And so soccer is.

214
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:41.279
<v Speaker 4>A is a very quick business and therefore it's no

215
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:45.360
<v Speaker 4>problem that everything went very quick and fast with that partnership.

216
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:48.919
<v Speaker 1>Right now, all right, kareem tell everybody about the event

217
00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:51.519
<v Speaker 1>this weekend, what's going on and how folks can get

218
00:11:51.559 --> 00:11:54.080
<v Speaker 1>to see what this relationship up close and personal.

219
00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:56.120
<v Speaker 2>Let me let them have it. What's going on?

00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:09.120
<v Speaker 7>It's all about fun.

224
00:12:09.320 --> 00:12:11.519
<v Speaker 6>You know, it's gonna be music and it's gonna be

226
00:12:14.159 --> 00:12:19.360
<v Speaker 6>Georgia players from you thirteen to nineteen. It's not This

227
00:12:19.440 --> 00:12:22.279
<v Speaker 6>program is not just about KSA. It's really about also

228
00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:25.440
<v Speaker 6>all the players in Georgia, doesn't matter if they Plumels next,

229
00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:27.480

<v Speaker 6>opportunity maybe to go in Germany in the summer. So

235
00:12:45.360 --> 00:12:48.879

346
00:18:31.559 --> 00:18:36.559
<v Speaker 1>of the information and literally it was something that started

347
00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:42.880
<v Speaker 1>back on the seventeenth. Literally this was like, uh, Kareem

348

<v Speaker 1>is now one of the leading coaching staff of this

349
00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:51.000
<v Speaker 1>project in Georgia, and so with Kareem and Tony Tiente,
