Sometimes, we may forget that MLS players have lives outside of soccer, but every now and then, it's nice to find out a little bit more about our favorite players. Richard Mulrooney is a 5-9, 160-pound midfielder who sat down with FCdallas.net to show fans his lighter side.

If you could change one thing about the world, you would change: "Money is the root of all evilness. If I could, I would change the system somehow to make it not as important as it is right now to everybody."
The best prank you have ever pulled on a teammate: "Well, it wasn't on a teammate but on a trainer for the U.S. National Team. The trainer tried to pull one on Landon (Donovan) and myself, telling us that we had to travel to Mexico City for the third place game of the Gold Cup two years ago. We turned it on him and told people that we had canceled our girlfriends flights down to Miami and lost hundreds of dollars. The coaches got involved and didn't want the players upset. It was a joke all along because we never had flights for our girlfriends. The trainer got so mad that he was almost ready to quit. It was pretty funny."

Your favorite movie of all-time is: "Platoon."
The funniest player you have ever played with is: "Because of his dry sense of humor, I would have to say Craig Waibel."
