“I think when I break my career up into segments, it’s almost perfect for me to go D.C., then Chicago, and then Chivas. In D.C., I was a rookie and I came in off the bench and I was learning what it was about to be a pro. Then came Chicago and I was on the field all the time but I was still learning and developing. Then I come here and I’m the leader and the guy that sets the tone every day.” MLS original Jesse Marsch, on the different stages of his 14-year career in the league that has seen him play 300 games and become only the sixth player to reach the mark (Kevin Hartman, Chris Henderson, Cobi Jones, Jason Kreis and Steve Ralston are the other Ironmen).
