Beckerman: "For sure. When I was in Colorado for five years, I thought I was going to be there forever. You know, I wasn't extremely happy about everything, but when I came to Real Salt Lake, I really felt happy about the soccer and everyday going to practice, I was happy about practice and it was just fun. We would go and we would compete and play good soccer. Everything about the soccer part, and then life came after that. I really started to love the city and the state. First, soccer is what brought me, but then after I love the state, I love everything about it, I met my wife here, so for me re-upping  I did it before all these moves were made  but Real Salt Lake is a club that's going to be with me forever. When I think of Real Salt Lake, I think 20 years, 50 years, 100 years down the road, that we're going to be a team. We're the guys that have to lay that foundation for the club that's going to be seen and what we're going to be known for is good soccer and we compete for things and we're at the top of the table. To re-sign, it was a no-brainer. I want to just try to continue keep improving the club. That's the biggest thing: Just keep trying to improve. And we are on a budget, so if we can be on a budget and still compete on trophies the way we have been the last six years or so, that says a lot about our club."
