WEBVTT 1 00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:28.399 Face has dropped on a new round of sd H 2 00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:30.280 A M. John here you there, Thanks for hanging out 3 00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:34.039 as you always do. Here's the rundown for today and 4 00:00:34.479 --> 00:00:38.399 a little bit for the week. Let's see. So today, 5 00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:41.920 obviously we're gonna look back at it Land United and Colorado. 6 00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:44.439 We've got all the sounds of the match. You'll hook 7 00:00:44.439 --> 00:00:46.799 it from Ronnie Dila, Ronald Hernandez coming up here in 8 00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:50.240 the show. You've also got we'll go through the numbers. 9 00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:53.079 Abe's gonna join us an hour one. Bart's gonna join 10 00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:55.880 us an hour two. We do have cards and calls. 11 00:00:55.880 --> 00:00:57.679 We'll talk a little bit about what's going on there. 12 00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:02.000 And I was shocked when Bart told me this this morning. 13 00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:06.840 But in the interest of fair play, which is in 14 00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:09.239 growing the game, which is what we like to do, 15 00:01:10.359 --> 00:01:12.879 Bart actually had some plaudits. 16 00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:15.000 That he wanted to hand out. I was shocked. 17 00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:18.159 He's I want to comment, I want to talk about 18 00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:21.760 some good things that we're done, and so we'll do 19 00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:26.959 that too. And it didn't hit me really until Bart 20 00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:30.400 sent that note that all. 21 00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:31.400 We really do. 22 00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:34.640 Is sit there and we do look at it with 23 00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:37.280 a critical eye, don't get me wrong, and we should. 24 00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:40.040 But I think at the same time. To Bart's point 25 00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:43.239 this morning about a particular reth, what we'll do is 26 00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:45.359 when they do something right, we have to talk about 27 00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:48.159 it too. And so Bart has opened that door for 28 00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:50.560 us this morning. So we're gonna have good and bad 29 00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:53.000 might even be a little bit of the old GBU 30 00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:54.879 the good, the bad and the ugly. When Bart comes 31 00:01:54.879 --> 00:01:57.000 in for cards and calls, we'll talk a little about 32 00:01:57.040 --> 00:01:59.959 the Premier League coming back, and that kind of lay 33 00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:04.799 itself into cards and calls from the weekend and all 34 00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:08.680 of those moments. So Atlanta Nighted, Colorado Highlights and posts, 35 00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:11.039 Ronnie Dial, Ronald hernandez Abe's coming up in just a 36 00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:14.759 little bit. Then we've got some Atlanta Nited two stuff 37 00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:17.159 to get into. Last night on the network. Two's got 38 00:02:17.159 --> 00:02:20.800 a big win against Crown Legacy at Home Lake Gold. 39 00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:23.360 We've got your Highlights two's reviews coming up later this morning. 40 00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:26.639 After the show is over, you'll hear from interim head 41 00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:30.039 coach Hose Silva, You'll hear from Patrick Wia, you'll hear 42 00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:33.039 from Totomajoub, who was the player of the match for 43 00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:36.719 Jason and Natty last night. And so that'll be and 44 00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:39.080 also looking at what's going on right now in the 45 00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:43.280 Eastern Conference and the race to get in is pretty 46 00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:45.800 tight and Landy United two is a part of that race. 47 00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:46.599 And so we'll go. 48 00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:50.599 Over all of the material that is there involving that. 49 00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:53.680 Also here in the show, we've got all of the 50 00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:56.680 gossip Berman and you window going on overseas, everything going 51 00:02:56.719 --> 00:02:59.319 on over there, and laying all of that out for 52 00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:03.759 the day. Okay, so the week the week is today 53 00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:07.439 is today, Casey White, Casey D. We're gonna find out 54 00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:09.879 where she be and she's going to bat lead off Tomorrow. 55 00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:12.520 We'll go through her matchup with Jessica Charman, We'll talk 56 00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:16.680 about Major League Soccer with Toronto and Columbus. Then we'll 57 00:03:16.680 --> 00:03:19.840 get into the college game with her and maybe some NWSL. 58 00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:23.080 So when Casey D comes in usually on Tuesdays, that'll 59 00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:25.919 be the purview that we look at is we'll talk 60 00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:28.599 about the NWSL with their season, We'll talk about the 61 00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:32.520 USL Super League. If she is tapped on the shoulder 62 00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:34.479 to call that, we'll get into that, but it's gonna 63 00:03:34.479 --> 00:03:37.960 be NWSL college and matches that she calls. We get 64 00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:43.560 into that focus. That's tomorrow and we should have a 65 00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:48.759 segment taping it if the lords of taping will will agree, 66 00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:55.000 we're taping it today later because our guest is overseas, 67 00:03:55.639 --> 00:03:59.400 And what we're going to start doing is we're gonna 68 00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:01.360 start looking and I don't know if you want to 69 00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:02.879 call it a if you want to call it a 70 00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:08.919 lecture series, you can. But what we're going to do, 71 00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:14.479 because of everything going on involving John Texter and involving 72 00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:22.959 everything that is attached to multi club ownership, we're going 73 00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:28.399 to get into those conversations with a couple of friends 74 00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:31.959 of ours, one in England and one in South America, 75 00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:34.879 and we're going to talk about the repercussions of MCOs 76 00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:37.680 and kind of do almost like literally almost like a 77 00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:40.920 lecture series. We're going to walk through multi club ownership model. 78 00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:43.319 We're going to look at the good and the bad 79 00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:47.360 and some of the pitfalls that are attached and why 80 00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:51.279 folks are still allowed to function within the purview of 81 00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:54.279 MCOs when it looks like they really don't need to be. 82 00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:56.959 So it'll be a part of a discussion and it's 83 00:04:56.959 --> 00:05:01.199 going to start today on tape and we'll run tomorrow 84 00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:05.240 in hour number two, and so we'll start that and 85 00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:08.600 we'll start having on the website probably in the next 86 00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:13.360 little bit some articles from written in South America from 87 00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:16.800 that perspective as South America is exposed to the multi 88 00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:20.839 club ownership model and what they're experiencing as they go, 89 00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:26.439 and what to look out for in national soccer organizations 90 00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:28.519 just to kind of keep kind of keep your eye 91 00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:30.439 on things. We're gonna we're gonna be looking at things 92 00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:33.079 with a critical eye and attach it with some journalism 93 00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:35.040 and you know, like I said, it's gonna be a 94 00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:37.399 bit of an electure series and try to figure out, Okay, 95 00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:38.920 what do we know, what do we not know, what 96 00:05:38.959 --> 00:05:40.439 do we need to keep an eye on. It'll be 97 00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:42.720 an education when it comes to MCOs and everything that's 98 00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:45.279 attached to it, the financing of the modern day game, 99 00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:49.160 and well, why is somebody there, why are they not? 100 00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:51.560 Why is it only this much? Why can't they do more? 101 00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:54.279 Those kinds of things. So it's gonna be a real 102 00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:57.519 interesting discussion that we're going to be having going forward 103 00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:00.920 with us with some folks as a part of our 104 00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:04.319 own education when it comes to the world game and 105 00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:07.560 what to look out for going forward. So that should 106 00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:10.160 air tomorrow on Hour number two. So KCD and our 107 00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:14.959 beginning of our mco lecture series in our number two Wednesday, 108 00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:18.319 Tyler Pilgrim's Carves and Spikes, and then we'll start getting 109 00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:22.079 ready for the weekend coming up. Toronto's coming to town 110 00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:25.600 and we'll try and find our opposition research when it 111 00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:29.480 comes to Toronto FC. And then let's see so if 112 00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:31.160 we can catch up with the busiest man of the Northeast, 113 00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:35.000 Dylan Butler. That gets us through Wednesday, Thursday. By the way, 114 00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:37.720 Thursday and Friday. Once again, I'm on the road, so 115 00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:40.199 you'll see me in hotel rooms on Thursday and Friday, 116 00:06:41.079 --> 00:06:44.279 and it'll be the Power Hour on Thursday. We'll see 117 00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:46.519 if we can line up some guests. Friday, see if 118 00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:48.439 we can catch up with our friends from Beyond Goals menering, 119 00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:49.839 find out what's going on in the life of Major 120 00:06:49.879 --> 00:06:51.839 League Soccer and get you ready for the weekend with 121 00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:56.560 Atlanta coming up and playing Toronto FC, all of that's 122 00:06:56.600 --> 00:06:58.199 going on. I didn't have the chance really to do 123 00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:00.879 an opening kickoff, which is fine because we'll get into 124 00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:04.319 that after our guest, Abe Gordon, drops in, and so 125 00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:06.519 we have to make sure that Abe is properly hydrated 126 00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:10.000 as always, and so look, I know how Abe worked. 127 00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:13.240 He's getting properly hydrated, he's getting all of his notes. 128 00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:16.079 First off, we have to add Abe, how was the 129 00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:17.879 nighttime running, sir? 130 00:07:19.160 --> 00:07:24.639 Yeah, the Alien half marathon went pretty well. It was 131 00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:30.160 incredibly hot for about six or seven miles, and then 132 00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:34.879 we got hit for about six minutes with a little 133 00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:37.759 bit of light sprinkle, which felt good. And then we 134 00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:40.839 got hit for like three miles with an absolute downpour 135 00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:45.160 and it worked for me, like I really needed that. 136 00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:50.199 It was refreshing and it was cooling, and so the 137 00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:54.319 run went well. But the shoes are, I believe, still 138 00:07:54.360 --> 00:07:58.439 soaking wet from the rain. So everything is good. I 139 00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:02.519 definitely feel it in my calves right now. But thirteen 140 00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:04.480 point one miles done, So happy about it? 141 00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:06.560 I mean, so what was your time? Were you happy 142 00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:08.079 with the time considering conditions? 143 00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:09.319 Yeah? I was. I was. 144 00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:13.800 I was hoping to go just sub two, which is 145 00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:16.279 like a nine oh nine pace. I ended up running 146 00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:21.439 like a one fifty five twenty four, which is like 147 00:08:21.519 --> 00:08:24.040 a eight forty seven or something pace somewhere in there. 148 00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:28.759 But yeah, executed the plan, I think, which is what's important. 149 00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:29.160 You know. 150 00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:33.799 I wanted to get the first seven miles relatively quick 151 00:08:34.320 --> 00:08:37.600 in terms of pace, and just make sure I had 152 00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:40.519 some time in the last six miles to slow down 153 00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:43.120 if need be, and then and got it done. 154 00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:44.559 So are we happy? All right? 155 00:08:44.679 --> 00:08:47.080 So I know that obviously you might have been just 156 00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:50.120 a passive listener at some point, catching up over the weekend, 157 00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:52.679 trying to find out what was going on since since 158 00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:56.440 you left Maddie and Nick in charge of the Lunatic 159 00:08:56.480 --> 00:09:00.159 Asylum up there in the the Imitation Placial Studient as 160 00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:01.559 a ninety two nine in the game in the Odyssey 161 00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:05.960 app and it was Atlanta United down early Darren Yappi again. 162 00:09:06.519 --> 00:09:10.159 Then you end up with Alexi Madanchuk getting continuing his form, 163 00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:12.279 and then it was two moments in the second half. 164 00:09:12.320 --> 00:09:15.360 I'm still trying to look at the PK call and go, okay, 165 00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:18.480 where was it? But that's just me and I'll look 166 00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:21.519 at it again this morning. And then Navajo after the 167 00:09:21.559 --> 00:09:24.519 PK gets the brace, and it was moments in the 168 00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:26.600 second half and it was another three to one loss. 169 00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:29.200 Another long night for Atlanta. Nighted out in Commerce City. 170 00:09:30.320 --> 00:09:33.200 Yeah, I mean I was actually watching as the PK 171 00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:35.519 was happening. I think I was on my phone taking 172 00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:37.960 the dog out for a walk, and it was it 173 00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:40.480 was you know, it was just one of those things 174 00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:44.480 where you wonder if it's an instance of Barrett Call 175 00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:49.000 just not knowing the league at a certain level and 176 00:09:49.080 --> 00:09:51.879 needing to adjust a little bit more and at something 177 00:09:51.919 --> 00:09:55.720 you probably there's a little bit of allowance for that 178 00:09:55.879 --> 00:09:58.639 from an individual perspective. Obviously, it's tough for the team 179 00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:00.399 to go down. I did think it was a foul. 180 00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:04.519 The leg is out there. It's if the guy wants 181 00:10:04.559 --> 00:10:06.879 to to take a step and trip over it, he's 182 00:10:06.919 --> 00:10:09.000 certainly welcome to do so, and he did. 183 00:10:10.159 --> 00:10:12.480 He got bar Call off guard. Barry Call was reaching 184 00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:13.120 and the legs there. 185 00:10:14.080 --> 00:10:16.840 Again, he could have fought and could have stayed up, 186 00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:18.919 but Barry Call did take him out, like it's a 187 00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:23.360 fair call. But I do just kind of attribute that 188 00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:26.120 to not knowing the league yet not knowing some of 189 00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:28.919 the players in an adjustment period. That is always gonna 190 00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:31.879 happen as a guy takes on a new league. I'd 191 00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:34.559 rather him adjust right now when the team is not 192 00:10:34.639 --> 00:10:36.919 going to the playoffs, when the team is not winning games, 193 00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.480 than have this happen in match day one of the 194 00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:42.960 next MLS season. So it's frustrating, but you have to 195 00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:46.559 allow it. Again, it goes to what we've seen John. 196 00:10:47.080 --> 00:10:50.039 It sounds like from and I listened to a fair 197 00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:53.559 shake of the first half as well with with with 198 00:10:53.720 --> 00:10:56.399 Mike and Jason, it sounds like, again, this is an 199 00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:00.000 argument where the team outplayed their opponents in the first 200 00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:02.679 half and all you can muster by way of an 201 00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:06.960 outstanding performance from Moranchuk once again, is a draw heading 202 00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:09.120 into halftime. And it's just one of those things where 203 00:11:09.519 --> 00:11:12.120 you've got to find ways to punish teams when you're 204 00:11:12.159 --> 00:11:15.840 out playing them. And it hasn't happened on Saturday night 205 00:11:15.879 --> 00:11:17.799 in Colorado, it hasn't. 206 00:11:17.480 --> 00:11:20.120 Happened for the majority of this season. 207 00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:22.720 And if I look heading into next season, if I 208 00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:25.320 look at like the one thing that needs to be 209 00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:28.679 different is you just have to punish teams when you're 210 00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:31.639 out playing them. That's the long and short of it. 211 00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:36.000 If we're gonna be honest, teams have moments against you, 212 00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:39.639 they make them count. You have long stretches against opponents, 213 00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:42.840 and you do not make them count. If you could 214 00:11:42.879 --> 00:11:45.399 just change that up on the defensive side and on 215 00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:49.159 the offensive side, you do. Like what you've seen, there 216 00:11:49.240 --> 00:11:51.360 is an argument that this team has been playing much 217 00:11:51.440 --> 00:11:53.240 much better over. 218 00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:55.639 The past I mean even month and a half. 219 00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:58.639 Really, I mean it's been a long stretch now where 220 00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:01.519 you felt you just got complete the outclassed in a match, 221 00:12:02.279 --> 00:12:05.240 and even now you definitely got outclassed in the second half, right, 222 00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:09.000 But over the course of it, you've just got to 223 00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:11.720 make teams pay. And it hasn't happened Saturday or for 224 00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:13.000 the most part this whole season. 225 00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:17.080 Looking at the numbers first half, to your point, it 226 00:12:17.240 --> 00:12:19.240 was I'm not gonna get into x ab or anything 227 00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:22.960 like that, but total shots seven to four for Atlanta 228 00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:26.360 United in the first forty five minutes, and it was 229 00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:29.480 one shot on target, so one shot on target of 230 00:12:29.519 --> 00:12:31.480 the seven for Atlanta and I did one shot of 231 00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:33.879 the four for Colorado. 232 00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:35.159 In the first forty. 233 00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:37.759 Five four shots listed as off target two blocks each, 234 00:12:38.279 --> 00:12:40.679 four shots inside the eighteen, which means the other three 235 00:12:40.679 --> 00:12:42.600 were outside the eighteen. Then you switch it to the 236 00:12:42.639 --> 00:12:45.840 second forty five minutes to your point, and fifty to 237 00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:50.000 fifty possession big chances one each side. Colorado had more 238 00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:52.960 total shots at five to four, and then you get 239 00:12:52.960 --> 00:12:56.759 into more shots on target to one shots off target. Obviously, 240 00:12:56.759 --> 00:12:59.960 the same two blocks four shots inside the eighteen for Colorado. 241 00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:05.080 So the numbers tilt, but it doesn't seem like they 242 00:13:05.159 --> 00:13:08.120 completely and totally just slam and the table completely and 243 00:13:08.159 --> 00:13:09.159 totally upends. 244 00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:12.519 So once again it's like you're there and you're in it. 245 00:13:12.559 --> 00:13:15.039 And it looked like and it was a concern that 246 00:13:15.240 --> 00:13:18.000 was raised here late in the week, and it was 247 00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:22.200 a concern raised by Mike and Jason and by Maddie 248 00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:24.879 and Nick about altitude and trying to figure out when 249 00:13:24.879 --> 00:13:27.279 you get to sixty or sixty five, just try to 250 00:13:27.320 --> 00:13:28.840 push through it. And it was in the pregame show, 251 00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:32.600 I believe, and it's like, you're pushing through that, and 252 00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:36.200 it looked like it was just one of those where, yeah, 253 00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:38.519 right there at that wall and you've got to be 254 00:13:38.600 --> 00:13:41.120 on top of it with your subs and so you're 255 00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:44.639 trying to come back at that point after the Navajo brace, 256 00:13:44.679 --> 00:13:46.440 and you're trying to come back from three to one, 257 00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:48.120 and you're doing it in the conditions you do with 258 00:13:48.159 --> 00:13:48.759 the subject. 259 00:13:49.159 --> 00:13:51.639 Yeah, it's always, in my opinion, it's always tough. 260 00:13:51.440 --> 00:13:55.720 To rely on second half statistics because of game game situation. 261 00:13:55.879 --> 00:13:59.159 In scenario, once they're up three to one, and again 262 00:13:59.200 --> 00:14:00.879 I don't know what it looked like before they went 263 00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:03.360 up three to one, but obviously you would expect Atlanta 264 00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:05.600 to have a lot more possession at that point because 265 00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:09.559 Colorado is not interested in chances and so it gets 266 00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:12.720 a little walkie can even out, so you know, Unfortunately, 267 00:14:12.720 --> 00:14:15.279 again I didn't see the entire second half, so it's 268 00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:16.840 tough for me to really go you know how I 269 00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:18.639 like to do it. I just kind of vibe and 270 00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:23.120 talk about how I feel it playing out. But look, 271 00:14:23.159 --> 00:14:25.879 the thing here is, John, is You've got eight games left, 272 00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:28.759 four at home, four on the road. This team has 273 00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:33.360 yet to win a road game all season, and obviously 274 00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:36.000 we're a long ways away from what like the expectations 275 00:14:36.039 --> 00:14:38.960 were coming into the year. Even some of the worst 276 00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:42.960 teams in the league have won one road game, and 277 00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:46.759 that's kind of what I'm looking at now. Everything to 278 00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:52.480 me is about building something to be excited for next season. 279 00:14:53.240 --> 00:14:55.879 You can't go into next year having not won a 280 00:14:55.919 --> 00:14:59.000 single road game. I just you want to see it 281 00:14:59.080 --> 00:15:02.799 happen at some point. So you got four chances left, 282 00:15:02.840 --> 00:15:04.799 That's what I'm focusing on the rest of the way, 283 00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:07.399 Just try and find three points on the road. 284 00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:09.440 Whatever you can get at home, you'll you'll take. 285 00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:15.000 But outside of that, it's about getting some of these 286 00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:16.559 new players acclimated to the system. 287 00:15:16.600 --> 00:15:19.639 Again. I think bart called is working through an adjustment period. 288 00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:20.559 That's understandable. 289 00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:23.039 I think me his a couple games ahead of him 290 00:15:23.240 --> 00:15:27.080 in regards to that, and that's nice to see. But 291 00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:29.639 you got to get al Zat in there and anyone 292 00:15:29.639 --> 00:15:31.480 else that you think is going to be a significant 293 00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:35.080 part of next season. Get those adjustments out of the 294 00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:36.759 way as much as you can right now. 295 00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:40.320 You mentioned me high at the back as he continues 296 00:15:40.440 --> 00:15:44.320 to integrate eight clearances on the night for Naomi High, 297 00:15:44.759 --> 00:15:47.320 one block and a pick three of four on his 298 00:15:47.480 --> 00:15:51.840 duel's ninety nine touches, ninety six percent passing in eighty 299 00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:53.879 one and eighty four, had the one long ball there 300 00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:56.200 as well as a part of the duo of center 301 00:15:56.240 --> 00:15:59.960 backs with him and Steon gregorson. Then you also meant 302 00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:03.360 one barrack call Luke Brennan getting high numbers. Steven Alzat 303 00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:06.159 also getting high numbers. In the twenty minutes that he 304 00:16:06.279 --> 00:16:09.360 was in ninety percent passing on twenty three touches nineteen 305 00:16:09.399 --> 00:16:13.360 to twenty one, he had three of four on his duels, 306 00:16:13.399 --> 00:16:17.840 and so the pieces once again, you're trying to integrate 307 00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:23.200 Barra Call, Alzat, me Hi, Leola Fonso was getting minutes 308 00:16:23.279 --> 00:16:25.559 last night for the twos and so right now is 309 00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:27.840 that this is that period of time that you're talking about. 310 00:16:27.879 --> 00:16:30.399 It's like, Okay, I've brought you in for a reason, 311 00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:31.480 let's see what you can. 312 00:16:31.360 --> 00:16:34.879 Do, and we'll work. We'll work towards something. 313 00:16:35.039 --> 00:16:38.159 What that is, it's finishing up right now as best 314 00:16:38.200 --> 00:16:40.960 you can and then looking toward twenty six. To your point, 315 00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:42.759 what have been some of your early returns when you 316 00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:44.919 look at folks like me Hi and Barack Call and 317 00:16:44.919 --> 00:16:47.360 Alzat and all the other folks, Well. 318 00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:49.639 I think right now you're just trying to justify who 319 00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:53.080 is a mainstay and who is maybe more in a 320 00:16:53.080 --> 00:16:55.440 reserve role. And I'd like to get a much longer 321 00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:59.360 look at Alzante for sure. I'd like to continue to 322 00:16:59.399 --> 00:17:03.360 get more look at Will Riley as well. As far 323 00:17:03.399 --> 00:17:05.440 as I'm concerned, a name me High is locked in. 324 00:17:06.440 --> 00:17:10.039 He's a mainstay. I want to see more about from 325 00:17:10.079 --> 00:17:13.799 Barakal and make sure I'm ready to make that call 326 00:17:13.839 --> 00:17:16.240 and make that decision now Obviously, I don't know what 327 00:17:16.359 --> 00:17:19.000 some of the offseason movement looks like in terms of 328 00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:22.200 the roster, and I think that obviously will play a role. 329 00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:25.839 Are you bring Stean gregorson back? Is that someone you 330 00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:28.079 look to move out of there as well? And if so, 331 00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:30.839 who's gonna step in in his main replacement. There's a 332 00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:33.720 lot of questions and discussions to be had. But in 333 00:17:33.799 --> 00:17:35.799 terms of the guys that have just been brought in 334 00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:38.920 that I really like what they're bringing and want to 335 00:17:38.960 --> 00:17:41.720 see more of an Am High is right at the 336 00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:43.839 top of that list. And then again, I'd like to 337 00:17:43.880 --> 00:17:45.799 get a better look at Alzata and by the way, 338 00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:47.119 I'd like to get a better look at some of 339 00:17:47.119 --> 00:17:50.480 the twos. And we all know I love Brad Guzan 340 00:17:50.720 --> 00:17:52.440 and I don't know what the plan is for him 341 00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:56.880 next year. This is a discussion between him and the club. 342 00:17:57.160 --> 00:18:00.559 I wouldn't mind seeing him once or twice on the stretch. 343 00:18:00.640 --> 00:18:04.000 I'm not just making a flat out replacement here, because 344 00:18:04.640 --> 00:18:06.839 Gooz is a club legend. He just you know, he 345 00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:09.599 gets to decide, in my opinion, how he goes out. 346 00:18:09.759 --> 00:18:13.079 But I'd like to see more of Dom tronk QUI 347 00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:15.960 I'd like to see some of these guys that are 348 00:18:16.440 --> 00:18:21.119 potentially gonna have roles next year, and again, I think 349 00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:26.599 getting them acclimated to the difference between what mlsx Pro 350 00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:31.440 and the MLS and what they might see from a 351 00:18:31.680 --> 00:18:36.160 physical difference, a speed difference. Again, if at any point 352 00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:38.799 you think that they're playing a role next season, it's 353 00:18:38.839 --> 00:18:41.200 not a bad idea to get some of their introduction 354 00:18:41.559 --> 00:18:43.279 to the league out of the way. 355 00:18:43.319 --> 00:18:43.480 Now. 356 00:18:43.480 --> 00:18:45.480 I know don tronk Qui had a little breadth of 357 00:18:45.519 --> 00:18:49.960 it earlier. Now he's caught back up, and maybe try 358 00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:53.920 him again again, even if it's just to get some 359 00:18:54.000 --> 00:18:56.079 more acclimation of the league. But you've also got to 360 00:18:56.119 --> 00:18:59.359 do that continually with baracl and Alzante and some of 361 00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:04.440 these other guys. But he look, two matches ago, Ronnie 362 00:19:04.480 --> 00:19:08.519 Dla said, ten matches, ten wins, thirty points. 363 00:19:08.559 --> 00:19:09.759 You're above the playoff line. 364 00:19:09.759 --> 00:19:12.559 It's ten cup finals, and look, I think that's a 365 00:19:12.559 --> 00:19:15.359 great mindset to have. You're now two matches gone and 366 00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:18.279 two losses, or you may have caught a draw in 367 00:19:18.279 --> 00:19:21.319 one of those, but obviously you're not just gonna roll 368 00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:25.559 off eight straight wins. I think that's understandable and so 369 00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:28.960 it's okay to admit, like, what's not gonna happen just 370 00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:33.279 because mathematically you're not eliminated, Like, it's okay to have 371 00:19:33.359 --> 00:19:37.759 that discussion internally, externally from the fan base, from the team, 372 00:19:38.119 --> 00:19:40.720 and start to look towards next year and probably what 373 00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:44.079 you need to accomplish before the end of this season 374 00:19:45.119 --> 00:19:47.440 to give you the best chance next year. And I 375 00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:50.880 think those sometimes comes with some of the main stays 376 00:19:50.960 --> 00:19:54.599 being on the bench and some youth being served here. 377 00:19:54.640 --> 00:19:57.200 And I'm interested to see if at any point they 378 00:19:57.240 --> 00:19:57.960 actually do that. 379 00:19:58.400 --> 00:20:01.880 And you mentioned names in and out and decisions. Derrick 380 00:20:01.960 --> 00:20:05.519 Williams was announced last week in between the time that 381 00:20:05.559 --> 00:20:08.359 you and I last caught up. Derek is now over 382 00:20:08.480 --> 00:20:11.640 at reading and so that is one less decision that 383 00:20:11.759 --> 00:20:14.440 has to be discussed. You're looking at folks like Ronald 384 00:20:14.440 --> 00:20:17.680 Hernandez who's got an option year. Brad is at the 385 00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:20.799 end of a contract, no option, Josh Cohen has an 386 00:20:20.839 --> 00:20:25.359 option year. Let's see Jamal has an option year. You're 387 00:20:25.359 --> 00:20:29.400 looking at Brooks with an option year, and then getting 388 00:20:29.440 --> 00:20:33.200 into your supplementals where Matt Edwards is a homegrown he's 389 00:20:33.200 --> 00:20:36.400 got years. Jay has another option year after this, you 390 00:20:36.440 --> 00:20:38.680 mentioned all the younger players. Jayden Hibbert's got another three 391 00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:42.039 option years after this, and well Riley's got another three 392 00:20:42.119 --> 00:20:45.039 same basic contract as Jayden Hibbert and came until Guy 393 00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:46.839 she has another option year after this. 394 00:20:46.920 --> 00:20:48.279 So the number. 395 00:20:48.079 --> 00:20:52.039 Started out at fifteen that needed to be figured out 396 00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:54.559 at the end of this year. Going forward, that number 397 00:20:54.599 --> 00:20:57.680 obviously is decreasing, so you're looking more and more like 398 00:20:57.759 --> 00:20:59.759 I think it's like ten or eleven right now because 399 00:20:59.759 --> 00:21:03.200 of the egress that you've had so far. So to 400 00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:06.079 your point, yeah, this stretch run, you're going to get 401 00:21:06.119 --> 00:21:07.839 the best out of it that you can. But yes, 402 00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:10.839 you do have to start looking at how who the 403 00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:15.240 contract decisions And then to your point about Atlanta United two, 404 00:21:15.279 --> 00:21:17.400 who is in a playoff race of their own right now? 405 00:21:17.799 --> 00:21:19.680 What you're looking at from folks there, and you've seen 406 00:21:19.720 --> 00:21:21.920 it with Nixcessek and a couple of others getting those 407 00:21:21.960 --> 00:21:24.559 cups of coffee, So you're getting a lot of that's 408 00:21:24.559 --> 00:21:26.799 like three dimensional looks here from the twos on up, 409 00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:29.880 from the players that are homegrowns in and the folks 410 00:21:29.920 --> 00:21:31.680 that have contracts that have to be discussed. 411 00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:34.519 Yeah, I think the interesting thing as you view it 412 00:21:34.559 --> 00:21:36.720 for next season is you've got to keep Fortune and 413 00:21:36.839 --> 00:21:40.240 Edwards in mind, because especially with Jay at the level 414 00:21:40.279 --> 00:21:43.079 he was performing at before his injury, but Matt as 415 00:21:43.119 --> 00:21:46.480 well was very good up until when he had to 416 00:21:46.519 --> 00:21:50.960 be sidelined. And so there is like an odd congestion 417 00:21:51.160 --> 00:21:54.839 certainly in the midfield where Sleash is absolutely locked in. 418 00:21:55.440 --> 00:21:58.119 And then you've got a number of guys that you could, 419 00:21:58.720 --> 00:22:01.720 I don't want to say rotate, but at least strongly 420 00:22:01.839 --> 00:22:05.680 considered to be running mates in the midfield. So it's 421 00:22:05.680 --> 00:22:08.279 gonna be interesting there. I think the one thing you 422 00:22:08.359 --> 00:22:11.039 do know is that as long as they're here late 423 00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:13.200 Loft is gonna be up top and and and Migge 424 00:22:13.359 --> 00:22:16.759 is gonna be on the right. And until that changes, 425 00:22:16.839 --> 00:22:19.599 you you kind of are working around that formation and 426 00:22:19.880 --> 00:22:23.680 those two players locked in. And so there's a lot 427 00:22:23.720 --> 00:22:26.039 of players under discussion and just not a lot of 428 00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:28.480 necessarily openings right now. 429 00:22:28.599 --> 00:22:31.240 And so look, you've just. 430 00:22:31.200 --> 00:22:33.880 Got to round out this season with whatever's best for 431 00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:39.279 you heading into the offseason. Uh And for me as 432 00:22:39.319 --> 00:22:41.799 a fan, I think it's time we understand it. As 433 00:22:41.839 --> 00:22:44.599 an analyst, I certainly understand it is you got to 434 00:22:44.599 --> 00:22:46.319 make the decisions that are going to help you make 435 00:22:46.359 --> 00:22:49.160 decisions next year, and if it costs you a regular 436 00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:52.200 season performance this year, then so be it, because you 437 00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:54.640 have not done enough in the regular season to put 438 00:22:54.640 --> 00:23:01.720 yourself in contention down the stretch in and the mathematical 439 00:23:01.839 --> 00:23:06.039 elimination thing doesn't really because other teams are adding and 440 00:23:06.319 --> 00:23:08.519 it just it's not there. Like you haven't won a 441 00:23:08.559 --> 00:23:10.480 single road game all year. You think you're gonna win 442 00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:13.359 all four of the remaining ones plus all four home games. 443 00:23:13.079 --> 00:23:15.559 And get there, And so, I don't know. 444 00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:17.279 We just got to be open and honest about it 445 00:23:17.279 --> 00:23:20.960 and figure out how whatever happened this year won't happen 446 00:23:21.240 --> 00:23:24.720 next year. And it certainly starts with where you're going 447 00:23:24.759 --> 00:23:27.559 with your roster, and then it ultimately has to end 448 00:23:27.599 --> 00:23:29.960 with how do you finish goals because you're creating some 449 00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:31.599 chances and not finishing goals. 450 00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:36.440 And secondary transfer window, by the way, closes on Thursdays, 451 00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:39.839 So if anyone in their mlsness wants to continue to 452 00:23:39.839 --> 00:23:43.240 do transactions of any kind, you have until Thursday to 453 00:23:43.359 --> 00:23:43.640 do it. 454 00:23:43.680 --> 00:23:45.759 All right, hit the promo for me. I know that 455 00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:49.839 it's going to be another go round on Sunday. 456 00:23:50.200 --> 00:23:54.519 Odds start time with Toronto, and I think we're still 457 00:23:54.519 --> 00:23:56.839 trying to find you a dance partner for post game 458 00:23:56.880 --> 00:24:00.200 because I will be attached to the Unified match it's 459 00:24:00.200 --> 00:24:02.519 coming on after but we do know pre and post 460 00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:03.119 hit the promo. 461 00:24:03.799 --> 00:24:07.279 Yeah, excited for it back at Mercedes Benz Stadium here 462 00:24:07.319 --> 00:24:12.799 on Sunday. So so like you said afternoon broadcast last 463 00:24:12.839 --> 00:24:16.839 Sunday afternoon that anyone will be paying attention to Atlanta United, 464 00:24:16.880 --> 00:24:21.279 the NFL is coming, so we'll take our last opportunity 465 00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:24.119 to get a Sunday game at Mercedes Benz Stadium here 466 00:24:24.759 --> 00:24:26.920 that people are watching and rooting for. 467 00:24:28.039 --> 00:24:28.720 Excited to do it. 468 00:24:28.759 --> 00:24:31.279 I think pregame at two with kickoff right around three, 469 00:24:31.359 --> 00:24:35.000 little after three and ready to roll on Sunday and 470 00:24:35.240 --> 00:24:37.519 looking looking to see what sort of performance they can 471 00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:38.039 put out there. 472 00:24:38.279 --> 00:24:41.359 Uh uh three o'clock pre four o'clock kick.

But you're a 484 00:25:10.319 --> 00:25:11.960 braver man than I. That's all I can say. 485 00:25:12.240 --> 00:25:14.880 Yeah, going up the stairs is okay right now. Down 486 00:25:14.920 --> 00:25:16.079 the stairs are real problems. 487 00:25:16.119 --> 00:25:19.079 So I'm living that elevator lifestyle until I get back home. 488 00:25:19.440 --> 00:25:21.359 As always, good to see my friend, will see us soon, 489 00:25:22.480 --> 00:25:26.119 all right, there goes to Abe Gordon and uh yeah, 490 00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:31.359 I mean, look, Abe is far better shape than I am. 491 00:25:31.920 --> 00:25:34.799 He's got more drive than I do, and it is 492 00:25:34.920 --> 00:25:38.359 just that way, you know. And I have seen him 493 00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:41.720 in training when things have kind of gone sideways, and 494 00:25:41.880 --> 00:25:45.119 you know, it's almost like you're the the old school 495 00:25:45.319 --> 00:25:48.759 gunfighter walk, you know from the old movies in the 496 00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:50.759 wild wild West, where it's just kind of very very 497 00:25:50.799 --> 00:25:54.839 slow and protracted and having to navigate that while you're training. 498 00:25:54.880 --> 00:25:58.480 And this was before the Peachtree, So we will see 499 00:25:58.880 --> 00:26:01.240 how Abe continues to navigate that. And as always, it's 500 00:26:01.279 --> 00:26:03.519 always great to kick off our week with Abe and 501 00:26:03.599 --> 00:26:05.279 our friends.

There were a couple of moments 507 00:26:18.920 --> 00:26:22.119 in the prem that we need to get into, specifically 508 00:26:22.200 --> 00:26:26.480 a rule that is six years old that I think 509 00:26:26.519 --> 00:26:29.480 a lot of folks forgot.

And I apologize ahead of time that this 534 00:27:40.039 --> 00:27:45.440 is just a question that is for the the the 535 00:27:45.559 --> 00:27:47.720 gentlemen viewers and listeners here, and this is a show 536 00:27:47.720 --> 00:27:53.880 of hands and Monday being what Monday traditionally is the 537 00:27:53.920 --> 00:27:56.160 beginning of the week, and you're kind of stumbling around 538 00:27:56.240 --> 00:27:59.519 and you're going, you know, hey, I've got to go 539 00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:01.599 back to work, I've got to do ABCD and need 540 00:28:01.640 --> 00:28:04.119 to get ready for that, and things just kind of 541 00:28:04.119 --> 00:28:08.960 fall apart. I have a question for the the the 542 00:28:09.079 --> 00:28:15.000 gentleman listeners here when it comes to those of you 543 00:28:15.200 --> 00:28:23.880 who are clean shaven, how do you maintain that, and 544 00:28:23.960 --> 00:28:26.920 I ask it and I ask this way, and I 545 00:28:26.960 --> 00:28:32.160 ask it like this because when for me, I have 546 00:28:32.880 --> 00:28:35.839 a very very sensitive I have very very sensitive skin. 547 00:28:36.000 --> 00:28:39.000 I mean literally, if I shaved every day, it would 548 00:28:39.079 --> 00:28:43.880 it would just not go well. So you'll notice there 549 00:28:43.920 --> 00:28:46.039 are a couple of days I'll shave a couple of 550 00:28:46.119 --> 00:28:50.960 days a week straight razor, the whole deal. And the 551 00:28:51.119 --> 00:28:56.160 boss has tried to figure out a way to make 552 00:28:56.240 --> 00:28:59.359 sure that I don't, you know, carve up my face 553 00:28:59.480 --> 00:29:01.400 or do anything, and is trying to find the right 554 00:29:01.519 --> 00:29:05.039 razor and all this kind of stuff. So we kind 555 00:29:05.119 --> 00:29:09.519 of found we kind of settled into a rhythm from 556 00:29:10.160 --> 00:29:13.759 an outfit that will send you it's like you're a member. 557 00:29:13.880 --> 00:29:18.119 It's a membership campaign. And what you do is you 558 00:29:18.160 --> 00:29:21.599 get a membership. They send you razors, they send you 559 00:29:21.640 --> 00:29:23.440 the shaving cream, and they send you, you know, what 560 00:29:23.599 --> 00:29:25.559 you need to function. Every once in a while, it 561 00:29:25.599 --> 00:29:28.640 is like every thirty sixty or ninety days they send 562 00:29:28.680 --> 00:29:29.400 you shipments. 563 00:29:30.119 --> 00:29:31.920 Because my face is what my face is. 564 00:29:31.960 --> 00:29:36.839 I don't shave every day, and if I did, it 565 00:29:36.880 --> 00:29:40.480 would be with an electric razor and the electric razer, 566 00:29:40.880 --> 00:29:44.000 you know me and electric razers it's just an issue, 567 00:29:44.720 --> 00:29:49.240 and so I can't get it right every day. So 568 00:29:49.960 --> 00:29:55.799 with this club membership and a straight razor, there is 569 00:29:55.920 --> 00:30:01.920 a hazard with it because the race head is larger 570 00:30:01.960 --> 00:30:05.400 than what I'm used to and so it literally is 571 00:30:05.440 --> 00:30:12.039 an inch long razor surface and probably you know, let's 572 00:30:12.039 --> 00:30:14.880 say maybe two inches wide and inch high something like that, 573 00:30:15.680 --> 00:30:18.799 and so because of the size of the razor, I 574 00:30:18.839 --> 00:30:23.400 can't get everything. Yes, David, it does. The membership does 575 00:30:23.400 --> 00:30:26.240 begin with the letter H. It is an ACE membership. 576 00:30:27.240 --> 00:30:31.480 So I have started using this razor that is two 577 00:30:31.480 --> 00:30:33.720 inches wide and inch high and it's just once again 578 00:30:33.759 --> 00:30:36.359 straight razor, but it is a very large head on 579 00:30:36.400 --> 00:30:41.519 the razor. It works well except when you're trying to 580 00:30:41.759 --> 00:30:48.279 cut turn corners and get into small spaces. That is 581 00:30:48.400 --> 00:30:52.039 evidence in Parcel, Part and parcel, the full example of 582 00:30:52.079 --> 00:30:59.279 which happened this morning and shortly before, it's like an 583 00:30:59.319 --> 00:31:06.519 hour before, the large razor from the H membership took 584 00:31:06.559 --> 00:31:08.000 a big chunk out of my face. 585 00:31:09.480 --> 00:31:11.240 And you can blame. You can go air four or 586 00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:12.000 four all you want. 587 00:31:12.039 --> 00:31:13.960 Look, I will fall on the sword on this one 588 00:31:14.000 --> 00:31:19.079 literally and figuratively. I literally was trying to get something done. 589 00:31:19.119 --> 00:31:21.720 I thought I had enough clearance, and I clearly did not, 590 00:31:22.759 --> 00:31:25.039 So I took a large chunk out of my face 591 00:31:25.119 --> 00:31:28.240 with this razor before I even could use. What I've 592 00:31:28.240 --> 00:31:30.240 started doing is for mop up duty. I have the 593 00:31:30.279 --> 00:31:32.920 small disposable razors and I will go in in the 594 00:31:32.920 --> 00:31:38.319 tighter spaces and do that. My question is, really, when 595 00:31:38.359 --> 00:31:42.039 it comes to guys and shaving with straight razors? Is 596 00:31:43.359 --> 00:31:46.480 am I the clumsiest person out there when it comes 597 00:31:46.519 --> 00:31:49.039 to using straight razors because of what it ends up 598 00:31:49.039 --> 00:31:51.079 doing to my face? I didn't know if I was 599 00:31:51.119 --> 00:31:56.480 the only one out here that was basically missing missing 600 00:31:56.559 --> 00:31:59.079 curves and things like that and basically carving up my 601 00:31:59.160 --> 00:32:03.319 face and I am the worst shaver known to mankind. 602 00:32:04.519 --> 00:32:07.920 That to me is literally That's how I feel right now, 603 00:32:08.039 --> 00:32:13.519 is that I can't get into a Monday and have 604 00:32:13.680 --> 00:32:17.599 something like this not happen for a double negative and 605 00:32:17.680 --> 00:32:20.039 my mother is probably screaming and cringing as we go. 606 00:32:20.960 --> 00:32:25.359 So I was just I wanted to ask when it 607 00:32:25.400 --> 00:32:29.200 comes to these kinds of things, A how you attack it, 608 00:32:30.599 --> 00:32:36.880 are you electric or straight razors? And level of success 609 00:32:36.960 --> 00:32:41.640 rate when it comes to you know, getting what you're 610 00:32:41.680 --> 00:32:47.160 trying to accomplished completed without carving up your face. And 611 00:32:47.240 --> 00:32:50.079 so yeah, this morning, literally this was not a week 612 00:32:50.160 --> 00:32:53.920 of great sleep considering going to Arkansas, and we've got 613 00:32:54.039 --> 00:32:59.079 that's kind of like our kicker this morning and getting 614 00:32:59.160 --> 00:33:03.640 through and navigating all of that, well, I mean, yeah, 615 00:33:03.640 --> 00:33:07.240 I wish it was alex Is Like when you say 616 00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:11.200 straight razor, you're talking Sweeney Todd or safety like the Gellette. 617 00:33:10.839 --> 00:33:13.759 Good News, the. 618 00:33:12.400 --> 00:33:18.559 The big you know, plastic you know, really inexpensive razor 619 00:33:18.759 --> 00:33:20.400 that you just kind of use and it's just like, 620 00:33:20.519 --> 00:33:23.720 you know, there you go. So no, it is not 621 00:33:23.799 --> 00:33:29.039 quite the Sweeney Todd kind of thing. Yeah, it is 622 00:33:29.559 --> 00:33:31.839 not the the demon barber Sweeney Todd. No, it is 623 00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:34.920 not that it is me and a straight razor disposable, 624 00:33:35.359 --> 00:33:37.160 except for now that I have this membership with the 625 00:33:37.240 --> 00:33:41.119 letter H and it's trying to be better. And like 626 00:33:41.160 --> 00:33:42.599 I said, I didn't know if I was just the 627 00:33:42.599 --> 00:33:45.680 clumsiest person on the planet. And obviously four card has 628 00:33:45.720 --> 00:33:50.160 confirmed that I in fact am the clumsiest person on 629 00:33:50.160 --> 00:33:52.720 the planet when it comes to razors. And that's not 630 00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:56.319 good for someone who spends a life on camera. It 631 00:33:56.359 --> 00:33:58.359 really is not, you know, because as much time as 632 00:33:58.359 --> 00:34:00.680 I spend on camera. That's why I went with the 633 00:34:00.680 --> 00:34:05.319 straight razor the disposable, which is no longer disposable since 634 00:34:05.319 --> 00:34:10.360 I have the age membership, but trying to navigate all 635 00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:12.840 of that get it to where it actually looks like 636 00:34:12.880 --> 00:34:14.719 I have in fact shape, because there are times where 637 00:34:14.760 --> 00:34:16.559 I'm missing corners and it's just a mess with the 638 00:34:16.599 --> 00:34:21.400 electric raser. So yeah, I just needed confirmation that I am, 639 00:34:21.440 --> 00:34:23.159 in fact the clumsiest person in the world when it 640 00:34:23.199 --> 00:34:25.960 comes to shaving. So that's basically it. And then with 641 00:34:26.039 --> 00:34:28.360 the guys, I was asking, Okay, how do you shave? 642 00:34:28.519 --> 00:34:31.559 And obviously you don't have as many errors as I do, 643 00:34:31.599 --> 00:34:34.360 but I just wanted to double check and see where 644 00:34:34.559 --> 00:34:38.599 you know where things were when it comes to all 645 00:34:38.639 --> 00:34:45.440 of that. So let me get the canvassing of opinions here. David, 646 00:34:45.480 --> 00:34:48.960 every other day shave before shower, wet facets and shaved 647 00:34:48.960 --> 00:34:50.840 gel not foam. And yeah, and it is with this 648 00:34:51.079 --> 00:34:55.239 h membership that I do have the gel that that. 649 00:34:55.199 --> 00:34:58.400 Works, that works on the grill, So yeah, it is. 650 00:34:58.480 --> 00:35:01.760 It is literally because and even if I do shave 651 00:35:01.800 --> 00:35:06.400 every day with this razor, with the disposable or the 652 00:35:06.760 --> 00:35:09.400 straight however you want to phrase it, I can't do 653 00:35:09.440 --> 00:35:11.480 it every day because once again it'll chew up my face. 654 00:35:11.519 --> 00:35:13.000 And so that's why you'll see me on the show 655 00:35:13.039 --> 00:35:16.280 sometimes with you know, the Miami vice growth day two. 656 00:35:16.320 --> 00:35:19.320 But after about day three it stops, anyway, I swear 657 00:35:19.320 --> 00:35:21.400 to god, stops after day three, doesn't get any worse, 658 00:35:21.519 --> 00:35:24.239 just get it, just stops. I don't know what it 659 00:35:24.320 --> 00:35:28.519 is that they're daring me to shave and carve up 660 00:35:28.559 --> 00:35:30.000 my face, and that happened this morning. 661 00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:31.440 Okay. 662 00:35:31.480 --> 00:35:35.000 So Emilio is single blades, safety raisor old fashioned SOUB 663 00:35:35.079 --> 00:35:38.840 synthetic shaving brush. Okay, that is very old school, and 664 00:35:38.840 --> 00:35:42.719 you probably you're far better at it than I, Alex, 665 00:35:42.920 --> 00:35:45.360 even though I'm always somewhere on the spectrum from stubble 666 00:35:45.400 --> 00:35:47.719 to beard. I do shave my cheeks every day, old 667 00:35:47.719 --> 00:35:51.280 school safety razor because the blades are cheap. Refuse to 668 00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:56.559 spend all that money on cartridges. So four card mock 669 00:35:56.599 --> 00:35:59.679 three since nineteen ninety five and not a single issue, 670 00:36:00.159 --> 00:36:02.239 the only issues when he's tried other types. 671 00:36:02.400 --> 00:36:07.639 Okay, but yeah, and for me, literally, I'm all. 672 00:36:07.559 --> 00:36:09.599 Over the place. It could be big, it could be 673 00:36:09.639 --> 00:36:12.679 good news. It could be this h membership that I 674 00:36:12.719 --> 00:36:14.920 currently have. I'm all over the place. It's like, look, 675 00:36:14.960 --> 00:36:18.400 give me something that has the film on the top 676 00:36:18.920 --> 00:36:22.320 to where I'm not really carving up my face, just 677 00:36:22.360 --> 00:36:24.519 the gel that helps out the jail strip on top 678 00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:26.840 and you know, sits there and helps code everything. As 679 00:36:26.880 --> 00:36:29.000 long as I've got that, then I'm in decent shape. 680 00:36:29.239 --> 00:36:32.239 David admitting he's not one hundred percent focused and go 681 00:36:32.320 --> 00:36:34.559 fast cut my face to shreds. Slow and focused move 682 00:36:34.599 --> 00:36:37.519 And that's what I tried to do. I mean, David, 683 00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:40.760 that's what I tried to do. But literally, as I 684 00:36:40.840 --> 00:36:42.719 was trying to get underneath and here to the top 685 00:36:42.760 --> 00:36:45.400 of the mustache, literally I just I missed it completely 686 00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:48.440 and I just gouged, and so it was all over 687 00:36:48.440 --> 00:36:51.480 the place. So I thought I was focused. But it's 688 00:36:51.519 --> 00:36:54.559 also very very early in a Monday morning. Abby has 689 00:36:54.639 --> 00:36:56.440 a son who's got an electric in the Hubby has 690 00:36:56.440 --> 00:36:58.280 a disposable well and Alex. 691 00:36:58.519 --> 00:36:59.400 It's not a straight razor. 692 00:36:59.440 --> 00:37:01.639 I don't it's like disposable, I guess it is probably 693 00:37:01.639 --> 00:37:03.840 the best way to phrase it. So, yeah, it's not 694 00:37:03.920 --> 00:37:06.239 like the long l thing like we see in you know, 695 00:37:06.400 --> 00:37:09.039 Demon Barber Sweeney Todd. No, it's not quite that it's 696 00:37:09.079 --> 00:37:10.679 not like the thing we see like in the old 697 00:37:10.679 --> 00:37:13.119 Wild West movies. I just always thought that. 698 00:37:13.119 --> 00:37:13.760 Is a straight razer. 699 00:37:13.840 --> 00:37:21.119 So okay, fine, let's see it's disposable. It is not straight, Yes, David, 700 00:37:21.199 --> 00:37:24.079 membership ones are sharper, need to be careful not to 701 00:37:24.119 --> 00:37:29.760 go laterally Jay Lesnick, Oh well, good morning, welcome Jay Lesnick. 702 00:37:29.800 --> 00:37:32.880 Do not be a stranger.

Uh? 750 00:40:12.760 --> 00:40:15.119 So there's that one. There's that one. There's that one. 751 00:40:15.760 --> 00:40:17.719 There's that one. Oh, I guess I didn't. So hang 752 00:40:17.760 --> 00:40:19.159 on just a second, and we're gonna. 753 00:40:18.920 --> 00:40:22.039 We're gonna do some We're gonna do some uh we're 754 00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:24.679 gonna do some live stuff here. 755 00:40:24.800 --> 00:40:30.840 Hang on? Uh was that was that that one? 756 00:40:31.039 --> 00:40:31.079 No? 757 00:40:31.840 --> 00:40:35.079 Because I think, yeah, okay, so that is I thought 758 00:40:35.079 --> 00:40:37.920 that I had pulled it. I guess I didn't, all right, well, 759 00:40:37.920 --> 00:40:40.440 so much for that idea. So I had thought that 760 00:40:40.519 --> 00:40:44.400 I had pulled the Mark Rogandino and and he uh 761 00:40:44.519 --> 00:40:48.480 he Pierced version, but I guess I haven't. So anyway, 762 00:40:48.519 --> 00:40:51.280 that was how it was one one and then Rafa 763 00:40:51.320 --> 00:40:54.280 Navajo ends up with a brace. You get your your 764 00:40:54.360 --> 00:40:58.760 p K and then the brace in short order, and 765 00:40:59.119 --> 00:41:02.599 Navajo get two goals in seven minutes, sixty fourth and seventy. First, 766 00:41:03.159 --> 00:41:05.760 I still have to look at the Barrett call contact, 767 00:41:06.119 --> 00:41:07.840 you know, if the leg is out. It barely looked 768 00:41:07.840 --> 00:41:09.320 like it was any kind of contact to me, And 769 00:41:09.320 --> 00:41:11.360 it looked more like there was like falling over the 770 00:41:11.440 --> 00:41:13.800 leg than anything else, just kind of working your way 771 00:41:13.800 --> 00:41:14.679 around it and falling down. 772 00:41:14.880 --> 00:41:15.840 So I'll go back and look. 773 00:41:16.239 --> 00:41:20.079 But my initial thought was that it was just something 774 00:41:20.119 --> 00:41:25.960 that was fallen over and not fallen down upon the 775 00:41:26.280 --> 00:41:30.119 entire time. So, uh is this is this the No, 776 00:41:30.159 --> 00:41:33.599 that's not it because that's too short. Uh Oh, I 777 00:41:33.639 --> 00:41:34.719 think I'm out of bypassed it. 778 00:41:34.760 --> 00:41:36.119 Okay, Well, so much for that. 779 00:41:36.199 --> 00:41:39.880 Like I said, I thought I had downloaded the Rogandino 780 00:41:39.920 --> 00:41:42.199 and Pierce version from Apple, but I guess I was 781 00:41:42.239 --> 00:41:45.760 sadly mistaken. What else isn't it. Well, no, there it is. 782 00:41:45.840 --> 00:41:50.519 Hang on, it's a debt that actually I may have 783 00:41:50.559 --> 00:41:53.159 it here. Hang on just a second, because you think 784 00:41:53.159 --> 00:41:55.719 you load something and then you're kind of like, well, no, 785 00:41:56.679 --> 00:41:59.800 you load it, and then you don't. So all right 786 00:42:00.480 --> 00:42:03.199 at his desk top and he said, this is me 787 00:42:03.360 --> 00:42:07.719 doing This is me doing the goals in like real time. 788 00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:09.679 This is me producing a show in real time. And 789 00:42:09.719 --> 00:42:12.440 I apologize for that. So I thought i'd loaded it, 790 00:42:12.440 --> 00:42:14.000 but I didn't. But I'm loading it now and then 791 00:42:14.039 --> 00:42:16.920 we'll play the mark Rogandino and he pierce. Version of 792 00:42:16.920 --> 00:42:18.679 what happened to tie the match at one courtesy of 793 00:42:18.679 --> 00:42:22.000 our friends at Apple TV Plus and Major League Soccer. 794 00:42:24.239 --> 00:42:24.519 Lennon. 795 00:42:24.599 --> 00:42:27.639 With the overlap, the ball will come back inside its 796 00:42:27.719 --> 00:42:31.760 leash white. 797 00:42:31.480 --> 00:42:37.360 For Fernandez, aren't you bending him with his foot? 798 00:42:37.360 --> 00:42:43.599 And it's one one. 799 00:42:44.679 --> 00:42:48.440 The league lasted all of about ninety seconds to just. 800 00:42:48.400 --> 00:42:50.920 Look at the quality on the ball, constantly looking around 801 00:42:51.000 --> 00:42:52.880 trying to see where the space is realized there's no 802 00:42:52.920 --> 00:42:55.519 pressure on him, knows he could take a lateral touch 803 00:42:56.079 --> 00:42:58.960 and just strike this ball through a crowded area where 804 00:42:59.039 --> 00:43:03.360 Zach Stephan Kent's until it's too late. What a fantastic 805 00:43:03.400 --> 00:43:07.199 strike with the left foot. He's got that quality. We've 806 00:43:07.199 --> 00:43:08.119 seen it on a few of. 807 00:43:08.039 --> 00:43:09.760 His final balls in this first half. 808 00:43:11.199 --> 00:43:14.239 But to go solo on that one, Zach Stefan left 809 00:43:14.280 --> 00:43:16.280 stranded with no chance of making a save. 810 00:43:16.360 --> 00:43:19.159 There, there's your Heath Pierce and Mark Rogandino call since 811 00:43:19.159 --> 00:43:20.960 I finally found it on my desktop. There it is 812 00:43:21.159 --> 00:43:22.719 to tie things up at one and then the two 813 00:43:22.719 --> 00:43:25.360 goals from the Bajo in seven minutes and it ends 814 00:43:25.440 --> 00:43:28.440 up with at Lanty United taking it on the chin 815 00:43:28.559 --> 00:43:31.480 by two, three to one in Colorado.

Your three midfielders, Saba, Alexi, 827 00:44:08.599 --> 00:44:11.719 who had the highest ranking for Atlanta United players in 828 00:44:11.760 --> 00:44:14.400 the match, and Miguel, and then you had Latte lot 829 00:44:14.440 --> 00:44:14.920 up top. 830 00:44:15.440 --> 00:44:17.360 You had in substitutions. 831 00:44:17.400 --> 00:44:21.400 Bearkal comes in for Saba in the fifty eight, Luke, 832 00:44:21.599 --> 00:44:25.199 Tristan and Steven Alzate in a triple change with seventeen 833 00:44:25.239 --> 00:44:28.159 to go for Ronald, Will and Miggy and the Nick 834 00:44:28.239 --> 00:44:32.280 Csse comes in for Brooks Lennon and that was your 835 00:44:32.440 --> 00:44:37.840 your subs.

That 841 00:44:53.400 --> 00:44:57.280 was the numbers for Alexi, highest rated for Atlanta United 842 00:44:57.320 --> 00:45:00.400 on the On the night, it was a a five 843 00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:01.960 to four to one ish kind of a thing for 844 00:45:02.079 --> 00:45:06.599 Chris Armis, Zach stefanin Nett left to right, Murphy Vines, Maksu, 845 00:45:06.800 --> 00:45:11.239 Noah Cobb, Reggie Cannon, four in the midfield, Yappie Lauraz 846 00:45:11.440 --> 00:45:16.039 Cole Bassett and Calvin Harris, and Rafa Navajo ends up 847 00:45:16.079 --> 00:45:19.519 with a perfect ten on sofa score. I cannot remember 848 00:45:19.559 --> 00:45:22.880 the last time I've seen a perfect ten on a 849 00:45:22.960 --> 00:45:26.440 scoring sheet, and Haav Navajo ends up with that. With 850 00:45:26.480 --> 00:45:30.119 the two goals the x x ab at a one 851 00:45:30.159 --> 00:45:33.239 point two seven two goals and an assist, two shots 852 00:45:33.239 --> 00:45:35.800 on target, one off, one block, five for five on 853 00:45:35.840 --> 00:45:38.920 the dribble for Navajo, won the penalty forty six touches 854 00:45:39.280 --> 00:45:41.679 twelve to twenty one, passing at fifty seven percent, two 855 00:45:41.719 --> 00:45:45.119 key passes, three crosses, all of them connected, one for 856 00:45:45.159 --> 00:45:49.159 two on long balls, one big chance created twelve of 857 00:45:49.400 --> 00:45:52.960 twenty on his duels, seven to nine on the ground, 858 00:45:52.960 --> 00:45:55.719 five of eleven in the air. It was a fouled 859 00:45:55.719 --> 00:45:59.119 once and a total tackle for Navajo. A full night 860 00:45:59.639 --> 00:46:02.800 for Rafanavajo and he ends up as player of the 861 00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:06.320 match with a perfect ten on the night. To answer 862 00:46:06.400 --> 00:46:14.320 your question, Emilia, there are times when players are transferred 863 00:46:15.119 --> 00:46:18.280 and it is in the it is in the deal 864 00:46:20.679 --> 00:46:26.840 that they are not supposed to play against their loaning clube. 865 00:46:27.079 --> 00:46:32.039 We see this in tournaments in England. A lot where 866 00:46:32.119 --> 00:46:34.960 if or even in matchups in the Premier League where 867 00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:38.880 you see folks that are loaned out to another club, 868 00:46:39.159 --> 00:46:42.480 but it is in the language of the loan that 869 00:46:42.480 --> 00:46:45.039 that player is not supposed to play against his old club. 870 00:46:46.199 --> 00:46:48.760 I do not believe, obviously, with Noah playing, that that 871 00:46:48.920 --> 00:46:52.079 language was placed in anything involving. 872 00:46:51.679 --> 00:46:53.320 A loan deal with Atlanta United. 873 00:46:53.840 --> 00:46:57.440 So it comes down to the wording of the transfer 874 00:46:57.559 --> 00:46:59.559 as to whether or not there is going to be 875 00:47:00.199 --> 00:47:07.280 a playing exclusivity when you're going up against your old team. 876 00:47:07.360 --> 00:47:10.159 So I think it's fair to say that, and I 877 00:47:10.159 --> 00:47:13.000 think that I know that. I think Ronnie had mentioned. 878 00:47:13.320 --> 00:47:15.480 Ronnie Dialy had mentioned in one of his press conferences 879 00:47:15.480 --> 00:47:19.199 that he didn't think Noah was playing, But the verbiage 880 00:47:19.280 --> 00:47:23.039 in the deal, my guess is is that it was 881 00:47:23.119 --> 00:47:26.199 not anything that excluded him from playing against anyone. So 882 00:47:26.280 --> 00:47:28.079 Noah Cobb was in the lineup. And by the way, 883 00:47:29.159 --> 00:47:31.760 Noah's numbers. 884 00:47:31.360 --> 00:47:32.159 On the night. 885 00:47:33.559 --> 00:47:36.320 Right there second highest on the back line with Sam 886 00:47:36.400 --> 00:47:40.000 Vines behind Maksuit at a six point nine ninety minutes, 887 00:47:40.039 --> 00:47:42.519 five clears, a block, three tackles, four for four, and 888 00:47:42.559 --> 00:47:44.519 his ground duels did not win one in the air 889 00:47:44.960 --> 00:47:47.960 fouled once, sixty one touches, forty two to forty eight, 890 00:47:48.000 --> 00:47:50.320 passing at eighty eight percent, two for four and long balls. 891 00:47:50.320 --> 00:47:54.800 And that was Noah Cobb's night in Commerce City, Colorado. 892 00:47:54.960 --> 00:47:57.079 So that was that's what you were looking at with 893 00:47:57.119 --> 00:47:59.119 Noah Cobb as a part of that back five for 894 00:47:59.199 --> 00:48:03.400 Chris Armis going and a five to one against Atlanda United. So, 895 00:48:04.199 --> 00:48:07.199 uh yeah, and I know that that that was a question, 896 00:48:07.239 --> 00:48:10.519 Amelia that some folks did have. Is that why? You know, 897 00:48:10.639 --> 00:48:13.480 why is why is Noah? Why is Noah playing? I 898 00:48:13.519 --> 00:48:15.519 thought he wasn't supposed to those kinds of things. It's 899 00:48:15.519 --> 00:48:18.000 in the language of the deal when you make the 900 00:48:18.039 --> 00:48:20.519 deal that if there is an exclusion, it's in the 901 00:48:20.639 --> 00:48:23.039 in the contract. Apparently there was no such exclusion, and 902 00:48:23.039 --> 00:48:28.960 so Noah could play against anybody, let's see. So yeah, 903 00:48:28.960 --> 00:48:31.239 and it does make it awkward. I mean it does, 904 00:48:32.199 --> 00:48:36.119 and you know it. You know it was what it was. 905 00:48:36.440 --> 00:48:39.599 And so Noah playing against his old teammates got a 906 00:48:39.599 --> 00:48:43.719 couple of jerseys after the match as well. But obviously 907 00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:47.679 the question being this season, and once again this is 908 00:48:47.719 --> 00:48:54.039 a loan option for Colorado, does Colorado at the end 909 00:48:54.039 --> 00:48:59.679 of the year, come up with something where they want 910 00:48:59.679 --> 00:49:04.519 to turn this into a transaction. Noah for Atlanta United, 911 00:49:05.199 --> 00:49:07.679 he's under contract through next season with an option year 912 00:49:07.719 --> 00:49:10.719 for twenty seven. So that's what to keep an eye 913 00:49:10.760 --> 00:49:14.159 on when it comes to Noah Cob and his. 914 00:49:16.679 --> 00:49:17.119 Future. 915 00:49:17.159 --> 00:49:21.199 And right now he is making one of the tears. 916 00:49:21.320 --> 00:49:26.280 It's not quite rookie men, but he is making right now. 917 00:49:26.320 --> 00:49:28.519 He's one hundred nine thousand dollars, so he is a 918 00:49:28.599 --> 00:49:32.719 navigable contract figure, even for Colorado. And that's what you 919 00:49:32.760 --> 00:49:34.679 are that's what you're staring at with Noah Cob one 920 00:49:34.719 --> 00:49:37.400 hundred and nine thousand on the books with Atlanta United, 921 00:49:37.440 --> 00:49:40.239 contract through next season with an option year for next 922 00:49:40.880 --> 00:49:43.679 and so that's what you were looking at with Atlanta 923 00:49:43.800 --> 00:49:47.360 and Colorado and Victor Rivas in the middle. Bark Keeler's 924 00:49:47.360 --> 00:49:49.440 coming up in about six minutes to discuss that and a 925 00:49:49.400 --> 00:49:52.079 couple of other things and actually give Victor Rivas a compliment. 926 00:49:53.400 --> 00:49:56.920 And for those that were watching. 927 00:49:58.320 --> 00:50:00.559 The twos match last night or listening to the twos 928 00:50:00.639 --> 00:50:04.119 match last night, it was first forty five seemed to 929 00:50:04.159 --> 00:50:04.960 be okay from. 930 00:50:04.800 --> 00:50:07.440 The middle, and then it was. 931 00:50:07.800 --> 00:50:10.960 Players getting emotional and then just losing control of the 932 00:50:10.960 --> 00:50:12.559 forty five. It was a very un It was a 933 00:50:12.639 --> 00:50:16.320 very uneven second forty five up at the fraction last night. 934 00:50:16.440 --> 00:50:19.480 Players having to navigated a lot of yellow cards, and 935 00:50:19.519 --> 00:50:22.239 I think there were four yellow cards issued in the 936 00:50:22.320 --> 00:50:24.960 second thirty minutes. Actually, I don't think there was a 937 00:50:25.039 --> 00:50:27.679 yellow card issued until the sixty first. In the second half. 938 00:50:27.679 --> 00:50:30.519 You had one on each side in the first half. 939 00:50:30.840 --> 00:50:34.679 Toto Maju actually working his way through most of the 940 00:50:34.719 --> 00:50:36.840 match with a yellow card, got the early yellow and 941 00:50:36.920 --> 00:50:40.480 navigated through it. Twos review once again, we'll have Patrick Waya, 942 00:50:40.599 --> 00:50:42.440 we'll have the goal from the that you'll hear in 943 00:50:42.480 --> 00:50:46.639 the show and post came from Jose Silva, Patrick Waya 944 00:50:46.800 --> 00:50:50.760 and Toto Majou. And so that's what you're, uh, that's 945 00:50:50.760 --> 00:50:55.400 what you're staring at, Emilio. Granted me, I just got here. 946 00:50:55.400 --> 00:50:57.920 Should I be concerned or is it more the supporting backs? 947 00:50:57.960 --> 00:51:01.800 I mean, it's uh, you're trying to get me high integrated. 948 00:51:02.360 --> 00:51:05.239 You're trying to get Barack call integrated and trying to 949 00:51:05.280 --> 00:51:07.679 figure out, Okay, who works well and with what and 950 00:51:07.679 --> 00:51:10.039 with whom, And so I know that you're having to 951 00:51:10.039 --> 00:51:10.760 do this on the fly. 952 00:51:11.320 --> 00:51:12.119 In game state. 953 00:51:12.760 --> 00:51:16.199 But no, I mean what we've seen from an am high, 954 00:51:16.320 --> 00:51:19.960 especially at home, has been someone who has been taking 955 00:51:20.039 --> 00:51:23.199 charge at the back. It's been very vocal, been directing 956 00:51:23.239 --> 00:51:26.920 traffic a lot. But you will have those moments until 957 00:51:27.039 --> 00:51:32.239 everyone is second nature in game state, where you're gonna 958 00:51:32.280 --> 00:51:36.599 have communication, you know, misunderstandings and things like that. Barrack 959 00:51:36.719 --> 00:51:39.119 Call is one of those physical guys that you bring 960 00:51:39.199 --> 00:51:42.880 in and I look at the like I said, I 961 00:51:42.920 --> 00:51:45.559 go back to the Montreal matchup to let me know 962 00:51:45.599 --> 00:51:48.840 what kind of player one Barra Call is, or basically 963 00:51:49.199 --> 00:51:52.920 Prince Owusu, who had been falling down and trying to 964 00:51:53.000 --> 00:51:57.440 draw whatever the entire evening basically tried to do the 965 00:51:57.480 --> 00:52:00.519 same thing with Barrack Call. A bounces off Barrack Call. 966 00:52:00.559 --> 00:52:02.000 Bart Call looks at him and he's like, you know, 967 00:52:02.039 --> 00:52:05.719 get up. So barat Call isn't going to take any 968 00:52:05.760 --> 00:52:08.800 ish from anybody. I think that's been missing on the back. 969 00:52:09.360 --> 00:52:15.199 And then you are looking for integration and so you 970 00:52:15.360 --> 00:52:17.679 have it's like this, and this is what Abel was 971 00:52:17.719 --> 00:52:19.880 talking about earlier here in the show, is that you 972 00:52:19.960 --> 00:52:22.480 have this time left this season. You've brought in Lao 973 00:52:22.559 --> 00:52:25.079 a Fonso You've brought in an Amy High, You've brought 974 00:52:25.079 --> 00:52:27.199 in one Bara Call, you brought in Steven al Zat. 975 00:52:27.960 --> 00:52:32.639 How do these faces integrate with what Ronnie Didla wants 976 00:52:32.679 --> 00:52:34.800 to do, and how do they integrate with everybody else around? 977 00:52:34.880 --> 00:52:37.079 And how did the guys who are here, how are 978 00:52:37.079 --> 00:52:41.039 they coming together with the new guys and so and 979 00:52:41.119 --> 00:52:43.800 so that's what that's what you're looking at. So that's uh, 980 00:52:44.719 --> 00:52:49.039 that's where and you know Tom is still looking for 981 00:52:49.280 --> 00:52:51.920 an explanation on the on the deal with Noah Cobb, 982 00:52:51.960 --> 00:52:57.480 and I think that where Noah is concerned what you 983 00:52:57.559 --> 00:53:00.840 have done with Atlanta United is and it's not the 984 00:53:00.840 --> 00:53:03.480 first time that this has happened, and. 985 00:53:04.800 --> 00:53:08.079 You have someone who is of. 986 00:53:09.719 --> 00:53:16.559 Market value and you can get quality in league garber 987 00:53:16.639 --> 00:53:20.280 Bucks or however you want to phrase it, and it 988 00:53:20.400 --> 00:53:24.559 can help you bring in experienced players. It's not the 989 00:53:24.559 --> 00:53:26.599 first time that this has happened where a player has 990 00:53:26.599 --> 00:53:30.119 developed for Atlanta United and moved on and helped them 991 00:53:30.159 --> 00:53:34.039 out financially to bring in other players. So that's that's 992 00:53:34.159 --> 00:53:37.360 kind of where I'm looking at it with Noah, is 993 00:53:37.400 --> 00:53:40.639 that I know that you have folks on the back 994 00:53:40.679 --> 00:53:45.840 line at the time that were not as marketable. And 995 00:53:45.920 --> 00:53:49.840 so if you are trying to bring in resources and 996 00:53:49.920 --> 00:53:53.519 bring in players, then at times you do have to 997 00:53:53.559 --> 00:53:57.559 look at your roster and look at, Okay, what is 998 00:53:57.679 --> 00:53:59.960 who is marketable, who's the most marketable, and what can 999 00:54:00.079 --> 00:54:04.719 I get from that? And you look at then you 1000 00:54:04.760 --> 00:54:10.920 look at someone like Noah, and then Colorado sits there 1001 00:54:10.920 --> 00:54:13.079 and comes calling, and then you end up with you 1002 00:54:13.159 --> 00:54:18.119 end up with that transaction with Colorado, so and that 1003 00:54:18.239 --> 00:54:20.079 and Tom is saying didn't need to bring in an 1004 00:54:20.119 --> 00:54:22.119 experienced player doing fine should have been a part of 1005 00:54:22.159 --> 00:54:25.159 the future and a piece to build around. And there 1006 00:54:25.280 --> 00:54:29.920 is that, you know, there is obviously there is that 1007 00:54:29.960 --> 00:54:33.000 school of thought. You're not alone in that assessment. So 1008 00:54:34.360 --> 00:54:38.239 but that comes down to what you as a front 1009 00:54:38.239 --> 00:54:41.679 office and a staff are looking to build going forward. 1010 00:54:42.480 --> 00:54:44.719 And if you're trying to win and at the same 1011 00:54:44.760 --> 00:54:48.679 time build for twenty six, then you're looking at bringing 1012 00:54:48.719 --> 00:54:53.480 in experienced players to help you out at center back, because, 1013 00:54:53.719 --> 00:54:56.519 as I have heard from a lot of you all 1014 00:54:56.559 --> 00:54:59.280 season long, you haven't been happy with the center back pairings, 1015 00:54:59.280 --> 00:55:01.400 and so you're trying to to change things up at 1016 00:55:01.480 --> 00:55:04.800 center back, and at times sometimes you have to sacrifice 1017 00:55:04.840 --> 00:55:07.800 to bring in in a position where you there you 1018 00:55:07.920 --> 00:55:10.679 have a position of need. So I mean that's like 1019 00:55:10.679 --> 00:55:13.039 I said, I'm trying to walk through it with you 1020 00:55:13.199 --> 00:55:18.159 as we're processing it. So uh and and Derek, I 1021 00:55:18.199 --> 00:55:20.559 know that there are a lot of folks who like 1022 00:55:20.679 --> 00:55:23.000 Abe an hour number here in this hour have been 1023 00:55:23.039 --> 00:55:24.880 like we'll play the kids, and we're getting to that. 1024 00:55:25.000 --> 00:55:28.639 You're seeing that, and you're getting minutes out of Matt, 1025 00:55:28.679 --> 00:55:30.800 You're getting minutes out of Jay, You're getting minutes out 1026 00:55:30.840 --> 00:55:35.719 of Will Riley, and it is going to be you know, 1027 00:55:35.719 --> 00:55:38.639 we got out of JAYD and Hibberto. So it's you're 1028 00:55:38.719 --> 00:55:41.920 seeing that as well as just there are times when 1029 00:55:42.480 --> 00:55:44.559 you feel like you have to make a transaction and 1030 00:55:44.599 --> 00:55:46.280 that just happens to be the one that we're talking 1031 00:55:46.320 --> 00:55:50.119 about our number two and it is time to bring 1032 00:55:50.239 --> 00:55:53.559 in Bart Keeler and the soccer for us PO D 1033 00:55:54.079 --> 00:55:59.320 and the the uh low down dirty cheaters that that 1034 00:55:59.400 --> 00:56:02.159 are associated with folks in the Premier League. You know, 1035 00:56:02.400 --> 00:56:06.360 it's Ah, I know that lowdown dirty cheaters have various identities, 1036 00:56:06.400 --> 00:56:08.400 and I know that Bart has them in files. 1037 00:56:10.079 --> 00:56:10.360 Bart. 1038 00:56:10.440 --> 00:56:15.360 When it comes to your low down dirty cheaters, who well, 1039 00:56:15.400 --> 00:56:18.960 who is on your list low down dirty theaters across 1040 00:56:18.960 --> 00:56:19.320 the board. 1041 00:56:20.519 --> 00:56:22.800 Okay, well, first I'm going to do a quick audio check. 1042 00:56:22.880 --> 00:56:23.840 Do I sound okay? 1043 00:56:24.239 --> 00:56:26.639 Yeah? You sound fine? Yeah, you just sound like that. 1044 00:56:27.000 --> 00:56:30.599 There is no microphone plugged in like normal because unfortunately though, 1045 00:56:32.039 --> 00:56:33.840 that's because, as you said last time you were on, 1046 00:56:33.960 --> 00:56:37.800 you were going to be in a different environ and 1047 00:56:37.800 --> 00:56:41.840 and that is why, uh there is a logo where 1048 00:56:41.840 --> 00:56:44.679 your face normally is as opposed to your face being 1049 00:56:44.679 --> 00:56:45.880 where your face normally is. 1050 00:56:46.679 --> 00:56:48.880 That is correct, all right. So the list of low 1051 00:56:48.920 --> 00:56:53.199 down dirty cheaters, John, it's not very long, but it 1052 00:56:53.320 --> 00:57:02.159 does mention multiple, multiple clubs that to take advantage of 1053 00:57:03.639 --> 00:57:08.239 loopholes and possibly make rules that don't exist and only 1054 00:57:08.280 --> 00:57:11.280 make them apply to them. So obviously we jokingly talked 1055 00:57:11.320 --> 00:57:14.320 about Charlotte as lowdown dirty teeters. That is obviously more 1056 00:57:14.320 --> 00:57:19.119 of a reference to the Alabama Tennessee rivalry because that's 1057 00:57:19.159 --> 00:57:21.960 where we're at in the world of American soccer. But 1058 00:57:23.039 --> 00:57:26.880 on the list of lowdown dirty tutors incorporated, I think 1059 00:57:27.440 --> 00:57:30.239 back in twenty twenty one, John, when a certain club 1060 00:57:30.679 --> 00:57:34.440 became real, and it's the club from South Florida that 1061 00:57:34.519 --> 00:57:37.360 I think we all are aware of who love to 1062 00:57:37.840 --> 00:57:39.840 make rules up that only apply to them. 1063 00:57:39.880 --> 00:57:41.280 And and frind. 1064 00:57:44.320 --> 00:57:47.199 Another one that is a little bit older that does 1065 00:57:47.360 --> 00:57:51.079 fall into the lowdown dirty teeters list is Manchester City. 1066 00:57:51.440 --> 00:57:54.039 And I don't think I need to explain too harsh 1067 00:57:54.079 --> 00:57:58.039 harshly why they are on that list, But they love 1068 00:57:58.079 --> 00:58:02.480 to cheat, They love to hide evidence, they love to 1069 00:58:02.679 --> 00:58:06.800 litigate until it is no longer affordable for those parties 1070 00:58:06.800 --> 00:58:09.880 litigating them because they have more money than God himself. 1071 00:58:10.960 --> 00:58:13.440 And you know what, then, aren't they just low down 1072 00:58:13.519 --> 00:58:15.800 dirty litigators as opposed to low down dirty cheating. 1073 00:58:16.280 --> 00:58:20.679 They cheat and then they litigate because, as we all 1074 00:58:20.679 --> 00:58:22.760 know in America, you can litigate your way out of 1075 00:58:23.159 --> 00:58:27.920 wrongdoing if you just continue to litigate. They just feel 1076 00:58:28.000 --> 00:58:32.119 like they just they just they love to again take 1077 00:58:32.159 --> 00:58:35.840 advantage of certain rules and or not rules that they 1078 00:58:35.880 --> 00:58:38.639 can manipulate, just because they have the money to do so. 1079 00:58:39.840 --> 00:58:42.440 You know, I think that's a good start of the 1080 00:58:42.519 --> 00:58:47.360 list of people who I just viscerally react to being cheaters. 1081 00:58:47.639 --> 00:58:53.400 But you know that said, I would like for my 1082 00:58:53.599 --> 00:58:56.760 clubs to maybe take a little bit more advantage of 1083 00:58:56.800 --> 00:58:58.920 the gray areas and the laws of the game and 1084 00:58:59.239 --> 00:59:01.079 the rules that leagues. 1085 00:59:01.519 --> 00:59:05.239 Yes, and so you know you're bringing folks that wish 1086 00:59:05.320 --> 00:59:08.800 to not take any issh from anybody, and uh, you 1087 00:59:08.840 --> 00:59:10.599 know you can kind of straddle the line as best 1088 00:59:10.679 --> 00:59:13.719 as best as humanly possible and and not get any cards. 1089 00:59:13.719 --> 00:59:15.719 So you're not a part of this segment. You discuss 1090 00:59:15.800 --> 00:59:16.679 things on Mondays. 1091 00:59:16.719 --> 00:59:19.800 So oh and LCSTA. 1092 00:59:19.599 --> 00:59:22.960 Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, I could I get an. 1093 00:59:22.920 --> 00:59:24.519 Actual player on the list and I think, yeah, I. 1094 00:59:26.280 --> 00:59:30.239 Can definitely see what you're what you're chasing there as 1095 00:59:30.280 --> 00:59:31.400 well when it comes to Lucco. 1096 00:59:32.000 --> 00:59:32.760 Uh okay. 1097 00:59:32.880 --> 00:59:34.840 So there were a couple of moments in cards and 1098 00:59:34.880 --> 00:59:37.960 calls before we get into week one, Weekend one of 1099 00:59:37.960 --> 00:59:41.400 the Premier League which ends later today for Monday Night 1100 00:59:41.440 --> 00:59:43.000 football with Leeds in Everton. 1101 00:59:43.800 --> 00:59:45.719 Uh, there were obviously everyone. 1102 00:59:45.440 --> 00:59:48.199 Wants to see on Monday night football Buffalo versus Cleveland. 1103 00:59:48.440 --> 00:59:51.400 Yeah, well the folks in the northeast will and that 1104 00:59:51.480 --> 00:59:55.119 might be your audience. There was there was a play 1105 00:59:55.400 --> 00:59:59.519 in in the Premier League that really raised a lot 1106 00:59:59.519 --> 01:00:01.079 of the collec active eyebrow. 1107 01:00:01.760 --> 01:00:03.880 And it is a literally. 1108 01:00:03.519 --> 01:00:05.639 It is a rule if I'm not mistaken, that is 1109 01:00:05.760 --> 01:00:09.800 six years old that really isn't talked about a lot, 1110 01:00:10.719 --> 01:00:14.239 and it ended up making its making its way in 1111 01:00:14.320 --> 01:00:17.480 the goal is draw with Chelsea and Crystal Palace. And 1112 01:00:17.559 --> 01:00:21.800 so here's what happened, was this Asa scores in the 1113 01:00:21.840 --> 01:00:24.480 thirteenth minute while he's still wearing Crystal Palace jersey. Because 1114 01:00:24.480 --> 01:00:26.519 there are conversations with other clubs. We'll get into that 1115 01:00:26.559 --> 01:00:29.840 and bit so he shoots the ball, gets it into 1116 01:00:29.880 --> 01:00:35.159 that past Sanchez, but Var identifies an infringement in the wall, 1117 01:00:35.920 --> 01:00:39.440 sends a note to the center reth to go to 1118 01:00:39.480 --> 01:00:43.639 the pitch side monitor and so the goal, after review 1119 01:00:43.960 --> 01:00:46.559 is wiped off the board. And what the deal is, 1120 01:00:46.599 --> 01:00:50.679 apparently is back in twenty nineteen when the law was 1121 01:00:50.840 --> 01:00:54.079 changed to state attackers have to be a meter away. 1122 01:00:54.440 --> 01:00:55.679 What it's a meter two point two. 1123 01:00:55.519 --> 01:00:57.679 Feet a big step. 1124 01:00:57.880 --> 01:01:01.400 Okay, so it's a big step from so all right, 1125 01:01:01.480 --> 01:01:04.519 so let me get this straight. So back in twenty nineteen, 1126 01:01:04.559 --> 01:01:07.639 so six years ago, law was changed to state attackers 1127 01:01:07.679 --> 01:01:10.239 must be at least one meter away, so a step 1128 01:01:10.800 --> 01:01:13.199 from a defensive wall of three or more players. 1129 01:01:13.760 --> 01:01:19.039 Correct. What, Yeah, So this is I don't want to 1130 01:01:19.039 --> 01:01:22.000 say little known because I think referees are aware of it, 1131 01:01:22.039 --> 01:01:26.559 but I think a lot of fans wouldn't necessarily see 1132 01:01:26.599 --> 01:01:30.920 this as something that greatly changed, right. I think we 1133 01:01:31.400 --> 01:01:36.920 still see in a lot of setups that wall construction 1134 01:01:37.000 --> 01:01:41.159 from an offensive standpoint, that is, yes, it's a meter away, 1135 01:01:42.239 --> 01:01:45.840 but it's still there. So I think what people are 1136 01:01:45.880 --> 01:01:49.679 confused by is just because they're not really looking at 1137 01:01:49.719 --> 01:01:53.440 this as part of the ceremonial free kick procedure, because 1138 01:01:53.440 --> 01:01:55.800 they just see it as, oh, they set up the wall. 1139 01:01:56.440 --> 01:01:58.480 But yeah, so if you have a wall of more 1140 01:01:58.559 --> 01:02:01.679 than three players three to then the attacking team needs 1141 01:02:01.719 --> 01:02:04.599 to be at least a meter away from that wall. 1142 01:02:04.920 --> 01:02:05.119 Now. 1143 01:02:05.280 --> 01:02:08.360 I don't have a great answer as to why this 1144 01:02:08.679 --> 01:02:11.039 modification was made to the laws of the game, my 1145 01:02:11.159 --> 01:02:13.000 best guess, and I think the way that it was 1146 01:02:13.039 --> 01:02:16.639 kind of interpreted was a little bit for one or 1147 01:02:16.679 --> 01:02:19.840 two things. One is a safety issue, you know, obviously 1148 01:02:19.920 --> 01:02:23.519 putting more people in the wall leads to possibly more 1149 01:02:23.519 --> 01:02:28.559 people getting hurt. But also because this was kind of 1150 01:02:28.559 --> 01:02:35.159 a way to remove any hands the play on both sides. 1151 01:02:35.800 --> 01:02:38.039 I was going to say, I was going to say Shenanigans, 1152 01:02:38.039 --> 01:02:38.679 but yeah. 1153 01:02:38.559 --> 01:02:42.760 Yeah, shenanigans of any sort right on from both sides, 1154 01:02:43.480 --> 01:02:46.239 which John we saw in this free kick, and I 1155 01:02:46.239 --> 01:02:49.000 do think that is one of the reasons why this 1156 01:02:49.039 --> 01:02:53.239 particular free kick was called back. Also because maybe Chelsea 1157 01:02:53.320 --> 01:02:56.199 doing a little bit of getting some love from referees 1158 01:02:56.239 --> 01:02:59.880 and leagues that you know, they may have bon paid for. 1159 01:03:01.960 --> 01:03:05.679 But this was a incident. I think that you're not 1160 01:03:05.719 --> 01:03:10.960 gonna this incident is why we try to take that hole. 1161 01:03:11.119 --> 01:03:13.599 You need to have a yard away from the wall 1162 01:03:13.639 --> 01:03:18.840 because the Crystal Palace attacker just bulldoze as a Chelsea 1163 01:03:18.880 --> 01:03:22.519 player into the wall and you know, does affect the wall. 1164 01:03:22.880 --> 01:03:26.119 So the reason why I think this var review was 1165 01:03:26.159 --> 01:03:30.119 triggered was because of the gross infringement upon not just 1166 01:03:30.840 --> 01:03:34.800 this law of the game, but also because it greatly 1167 01:03:34.800 --> 01:03:37.559 interfered with the result of this free kick. 1168 01:03:38.440 --> 01:03:41.599 And there is a still that is up in Traditionally, 1169 01:03:41.639 --> 01:03:44.239 what we do is we use the Dale Johnson column 1170 01:03:44.800 --> 01:03:47.599 for stuff overseas, and if there's anything in Major League 1171 01:03:47.599 --> 01:03:51.719 Soccer then we'll reference it here from our own research. 1172 01:03:51.760 --> 01:03:56.320 But there's a still where you got a lot of folks. 1173 01:03:56.480 --> 01:03:59.960 That are on the ground in January, and this is 1174 01:04:00.199 --> 01:04:04.280 still from a January moment with Bournemouth and Chelsea, and 1175 01:04:04.360 --> 01:04:09.639 so you Hadku Carella. Sorry Cookrea Now Koukorea into the 1176 01:04:09.760 --> 01:04:12.840 wall right up against the born with players, which gives 1177 01:04:12.920 --> 01:04:17.159 Reese James an opening, and it wasn't ruled out as 1178 01:04:17.440 --> 01:04:20.280 Ku Korea moves into some meno and the goal stood 1179 01:04:20.320 --> 01:04:24.440 because Kokorea's actions did not impact the goal as James's 1180 01:04:24.519 --> 01:04:27.480 shot goes opposite corner, so it goes away from the play. 1181 01:04:27.960 --> 01:04:33.199 Ku coreas slamming into the wall is given the okie doke. 1182 01:04:33.800 --> 01:04:37.760 But what happened with Esse is said, No, that violates 1183 01:04:37.840 --> 01:04:41.519 this rule and it is reviewable. The space away from 1184 01:04:41.920 --> 01:04:44.280 as it is is laid out. The position of an 1185 01:04:44.280 --> 01:04:47.679 attacking player close to the wall is reviewable. And that's 1186 01:04:47.719 --> 01:04:50.920 what I'm sure that folks were trying to navigate and go, well, 1187 01:04:50.920 --> 01:04:54.159 well but but but but but but that's the key 1188 01:04:54.360 --> 01:04:57.239 is that the position of an attacking player close to 1189 01:04:57.280 --> 01:04:59.760 the wall when it comes to restarts and such restarts 1190 01:04:59.800 --> 01:05:03.840 can't be reviewed. But encroachment isn't a restart offense. And 1191 01:05:03.920 --> 01:05:05.679 so it's. 1192 01:05:07.679 --> 01:05:11.199 So basically that is kind of what they're saying. And 1193 01:05:11.480 --> 01:05:14.199 I would say that if you had a player in 1194 01:05:14.239 --> 01:05:17.360 the defensive wall who maybe took a step or five forward, 1195 01:05:17.960 --> 01:05:21.840 you know, because that happens very often, and the referee 1196 01:05:21.840 --> 01:05:24.440 didn't catch it. I would hope this is something that 1197 01:05:24.440 --> 01:05:27.440 we can now put underneath that encroachment kind of idea. 1198 01:05:27.480 --> 01:05:30.639 But also again I think what needs to be reminded 1199 01:05:30.880 --> 01:05:35.880 is that the Premier League has different var standards and 1200 01:05:36.000 --> 01:05:41.159 interpretations and you know, policies than other leagues have. I 1201 01:05:41.159 --> 01:05:44.440 think we've talked about that almost ad nauseum on the 1202 01:05:44.559 --> 01:05:48.239 show where because you know, the Premier League obviously knows 1203 01:05:48.280 --> 01:05:51.400 better than anyone else who has ever decided to game. 1204 01:05:52.000 --> 01:05:57.440 They have very different standards and levels of involvement that 1205 01:05:57.519 --> 01:06:00.920 they kind of keep compared to others. They're the surround 1206 01:06:00.960 --> 01:06:01.320 the world. 1207 01:06:02.000 --> 01:06:05.000 And later down further in the column, there is a 1208 01:06:05.119 --> 01:06:07.440 still of the moment of impact or just before the 1209 01:06:07.440 --> 01:06:10.400 moment of impact and the setup where you have in 1210 01:06:10.440 --> 01:06:13.840 front of Mark Gayhey, you have four Chelsea players and 1211 01:06:13.880 --> 01:06:17.519 one laying down. I'm still team no man behind the wall. 1212 01:06:17.519 --> 01:06:19.599 I mean just like look, stand up and give your 1213 01:06:19.719 --> 01:06:23.039 keeper room to move. So you have four players in 1214 01:06:23.159 --> 01:06:28.000 front of Gayhe directly, and then you have Chelsea Palace, 1215 01:06:28.079 --> 01:06:32.840 Chelsea Palace and then Chelsea and so like literally it 1216 01:06:32.920 --> 01:06:35.280 is it's two and two and then a third La 1217 01:06:35.639 --> 01:06:39.400 Palace player behind but the interaction of the Chelsea Palace. 1218 01:06:39.480 --> 01:06:44.119 Chelsea Palace is where the issue was with Esa and 1219 01:06:44.159 --> 01:06:46.400 Gayhee and the players from Chelsea. So it's in that 1220 01:06:46.480 --> 01:06:49.760 interaction of the second wall off to the side, not 1221 01:06:49.840 --> 01:06:52.880 directly in front of the net, is what they're correct. 1222 01:06:54.280 --> 01:06:54.800 Man, that. 1223 01:06:56.679 --> 01:06:58.639 It impacted the result of the game. Which is why 1224 01:06:58.679 --> 01:07:01.800 I think it is getting so much attention, John, because 1225 01:07:01.840 --> 01:07:07.960 obviously if that goal stands, you know, granted, I think 1226 01:07:08.039 --> 01:07:10.119 Jason Longshore would take me to task for saying that 1227 01:07:10.280 --> 01:07:13.159 is the reason that the game did draw us or scoreless. 1228 01:07:13.199 --> 01:07:18.400 But you know, you look at that moment Crystal Palace scores, 1229 01:07:18.400 --> 01:07:21.239 they're up one nil. The game ended nil no, John, 1230 01:07:21.440 --> 01:07:24.679 So you know there is a logical conclusion that that 1231 01:07:25.760 --> 01:07:29.960 did cause Crystal Palace to lose out on two extra points. 1232 01:07:30.079 --> 01:07:30.400 M hm. 1233 01:07:30.800 --> 01:07:32.599 And so we'll keep an eye on those. We'll keep 1234 01:07:32.599 --> 01:07:34.239 an eye on those two points as we go. 1235 01:07:35.760 --> 01:07:37.719 Jason, I did not say that. I did not say 1236 01:07:37.719 --> 01:07:40.880 the reference the outcome of the game. I didn't say that. 1237 01:07:42.039 --> 01:07:44.519 Yeah, so we'll keep an eye. We'll keep an eye 1238 01:07:44.559 --> 01:07:45.880 on that. But yeah, it was just a six year 1239 01:07:45.920 --> 01:07:48.039 old rule that kind of reared its head. You're kind 1240 01:07:48.039 --> 01:07:51.199 of going wait what uh yeah, and again. 1241 01:07:51.039 --> 01:07:53.119 John, because it's part of that setting up the wall 1242 01:07:53.159 --> 01:07:55.679 what we call ceremonial free kick, which is, you know, 1243 01:07:57.039 --> 01:07:58.920 say this is where the ball is. You draw the 1244 01:07:58.960 --> 01:08:01.840 little white circle with the vanishing spreare, you go, okay, everyone, 1245 01:08:01.880 --> 01:08:04.159 we're playing on my whistle. You tell the kicker don't 1246 01:08:04.159 --> 01:08:06.519 do anything until I blow my whistle, and then you 1247 01:08:06.559 --> 01:08:08.320 go okay, let's step it off. And you do the 1248 01:08:08.320 --> 01:08:10.440 ten yards and you say while you're here, and you go, 1249 01:08:10.519 --> 01:08:13.280 no wall I mean here, no wall I mean here, 1250 01:08:13.760 --> 01:08:15.320 and then you go, okay, the wall is there, and 1251 01:08:15.320 --> 01:08:18.039 then you gotta go set up everything. It just doesn't 1252 01:08:18.079 --> 01:08:21.319 feel like a separate action because it is involved in 1253 01:08:21.439 --> 01:08:22.479 all of that setup. 1254 01:08:24.359 --> 01:08:30.279 Item number two Liverpool and Bournemouth. The possible red for 1255 01:08:30.439 --> 01:08:31.319 Marcus Sinesi. 1256 01:08:32.439 --> 01:08:33.279 Boy, yeah. 1257 01:08:33.399 --> 01:08:38.239 This was early on Liverpool thirteenth minute. So Sinesse basically 1258 01:08:38.279 --> 01:08:40.359 intercepts the pass and it looks like he commits a 1259 01:08:40.359 --> 01:08:43.640 handball that keeps the striker from running through on goal 1260 01:08:43.720 --> 01:08:46.079 a salat as most Slaw is trying to play to Ektk, 1261 01:08:46.960 --> 01:08:52.720 so ref doesn't spot it issues a handball uh to 1262 01:08:52.840 --> 01:08:57.479 Liverpool's Cody gakpo Var goes back to red for dog 1263 01:08:57.560 --> 01:09:01.840 so on Sinesse and and we'll get to the gag 1264 01:09:01.880 --> 01:09:05.560 poll later. But there's a still it's posted from Getty 1265 01:09:05.600 --> 01:09:08.760 where Sinessei literally looks like he's trying to go just 1266 01:09:08.920 --> 01:09:13.000 full blown volleyball dig and keep it away from a 1267 01:09:13.680 --> 01:09:15.199 on the through ball. So what happened here? 1268 01:09:15.279 --> 01:09:21.520 Yeah, Well, john I don't know. I think the best 1269 01:09:21.560 --> 01:09:24.560 explanation that Dale Johnson puts in his article, and this 1270 01:09:24.680 --> 01:09:28.560 has to be the only explanation, is that the var 1271 01:09:28.760 --> 01:09:31.640 in this situation was so focused on the initial handball. 1272 01:09:33.119 --> 01:09:36.159 When that ball is played through the fender, it comes 1273 01:09:36.359 --> 01:09:39.000 he tries to control it with his thigh with the 1274 01:09:39.079 --> 01:09:42.439 upper leg. It hits the upper leg and then it 1275 01:09:42.479 --> 01:09:46.319 bounces up and hits a non playable part of the arm. 1276 01:09:47.199 --> 01:09:51.439 But in this case, we do allow that as a 1277 01:09:51.560 --> 01:09:55.760 natural thing that happens while playing soccer. Unfortunately, despite these 1278 01:09:55.800 --> 01:10:00.000 players getting paid buckets of money, sometimes they don't control 1279 01:10:00.159 --> 01:10:03.000 everything perfectly and the ball's going to maybe ricochet up 1280 01:10:03.039 --> 01:10:06.159 into their arm and that's not supposed to be deemed 1281 01:10:06.159 --> 01:10:10.319 a handball despite it being a very advantageous situation. So 1282 01:10:10.800 --> 01:10:15.279 I think the best explanation is VR was looking at 1283 01:10:15.319 --> 01:10:17.920 that and then didn't look at the fact that the 1284 01:10:17.960 --> 01:10:20.640 player clearly tries to reach out and like a cat 1285 01:10:20.680 --> 01:10:25.000 swatting a toy, tries to knock the ball away, and 1286 01:10:25.039 --> 01:10:28.359 that I think the problem also is that the that 1287 01:10:29.039 --> 01:10:34.079 action isn't seeing what like, you can't see that it 1288 01:10:34.159 --> 01:10:37.960 actually touched the ball with a naked eye, So that 1289 01:10:38.119 --> 01:10:40.640 wasn't initially said, oh we need to review that too. 1290 01:10:41.199 --> 01:10:42.079 Does that make sense? 1291 01:10:42.239 --> 01:10:44.680 Yeah, well, but then you get into the whole Then 1292 01:10:44.720 --> 01:10:47.199 you get into the whole thing of well, all right, 1293 01:10:47.319 --> 01:10:53.119 so is var trying to hyper manage this because if 1294 01:10:53.119 --> 01:10:56.600 you don't see the initial contact at real speed, then 1295 01:10:56.680 --> 01:10:58.600 you're having then you're going back and you're sitting there 1296 01:10:58.640 --> 01:11:00.520 and you're trying to do you know, frame by frame 1297 01:11:00.560 --> 01:11:02.520 analysis of the whole thing and sit there and go, oh, 1298 01:11:02.560 --> 01:11:04.239 there was your moment as well. 1299 01:11:04.279 --> 01:11:06.159 And that's what I do have a problem with this 1300 01:11:06.359 --> 01:11:09.960 is that this was a moment of itself. Is that, 1301 01:11:10.119 --> 01:11:12.520 like all of this was a not a singular moment, 1302 01:11:12.560 --> 01:11:16.520 but was a moment right, Yes, there was a singular 1303 01:11:16.600 --> 01:11:20.680 moment of the miscontrolled ball that then goes off of 1304 01:11:20.720 --> 01:11:23.640 the arm. Okay, we settle that, but then that was 1305 01:11:23.680 --> 01:11:27.479 not the end of this phase and play right, there 1306 01:11:27.560 --> 01:11:31.000 is a whole other thing where you know, the defender 1307 01:11:31.119 --> 01:11:35.640 tries to stop the ball again, and that because you 1308 01:11:35.720 --> 01:11:39.880 could clearly see, in my opinion anyway on the live 1309 01:11:39.920 --> 01:11:43.159 action and even on the initial replay, the players tries 1310 01:11:43.199 --> 01:11:46.520 to slap the ball. I don't think I'm crazy there, John, 1311 01:11:46.560 --> 01:11:48.760 I mean it looks like it looked like what he 1312 01:11:48.840 --> 01:11:50.000 was trying to do in live action. 1313 01:11:50.199 --> 01:11:53.239 But just because but then let me get into intent here. 1314 01:11:53.279 --> 01:11:56.199 But just so just say that just because you try 1315 01:11:56.239 --> 01:12:00.399 to take a swipe at your correct correct your fish 1316 01:12:00.399 --> 01:12:03.640 on a hook and you miss, does that mean that 1317 01:12:03.680 --> 01:12:05.920 you should still be penalized for trying to play with 1318 01:12:05.960 --> 01:12:07.119 the fish at the end of the hook? 1319 01:12:07.920 --> 01:12:12.520 Right? So again, I think it was missed, not because 1320 01:12:12.520 --> 01:12:14.479 he didn't touch it. I think that's the problem is 1321 01:12:14.520 --> 01:12:16.840 when you look at it, he makes contact with the 1322 01:12:16.880 --> 01:12:20.439 ball in this scenario, right, you can, in my opinion, 1323 01:12:20.560 --> 01:12:23.720 you can see a change of direction or a change 1324 01:12:23.720 --> 01:12:27.279 of spin on the ball. It may not be super 1325 01:12:30.000 --> 01:12:34.520 it may not be super obvious or or changed drastically, 1326 01:12:34.600 --> 01:12:37.039 but you could see. So that's that's kind of my point, John, 1327 01:12:37.119 --> 01:12:42.359 is like you could see him attempt to do it. So, yes, 1328 01:12:42.439 --> 01:12:47.000 you should check that because in this situation it's it 1329 01:12:47.119 --> 01:12:49.640 would be in my opinion, a dog's the red card. 1330 01:12:49.960 --> 01:12:54.239 Certainly for this scenario being handball this, it's going to 1331 01:12:54.239 --> 01:12:54.800 be a red card. 1332 01:12:55.439 --> 01:12:59.640 What about having it literally at the halfway line? 1333 01:12:59.680 --> 01:13:01.319 I mean, that's that's not well. 1334 01:13:02.039 --> 01:13:07.119 Yeah, but in this scenario, John, again the four d's 1335 01:13:07.119 --> 01:13:14.359 of dogs, so distance, direction, defenders, and then direction a 1336 01:13:14.680 --> 01:13:17.920 Distancecuse me, we're all kind of met right, Like the 1337 01:13:17.960 --> 01:13:25.880 distance to goal at this scenario, Yes, I understand it's halfway, 1338 01:13:25.920 --> 01:13:27.560 but then you look at Okay, well he's not like 1339 01:13:28.159 --> 01:13:33.279 super close, but the distance that the player would have 1340 01:13:33.279 --> 01:13:36.119 been to the ball would have been pretty I mean 1341 01:13:36.159 --> 01:13:38.800 that's why the player tried to swap the ball away, 1342 01:13:38.840 --> 01:13:41.680 because the attacker would have been able to control the 1343 01:13:41.720 --> 01:13:44.720 balls within a playable distance for sure. There are no 1344 01:13:44.840 --> 01:13:48.239 other defenders past this. The direction of play is very 1345 01:13:48.279 --> 01:13:54.239 much headed toward goal, and in this scenario, John, despite 1346 01:13:54.239 --> 01:13:56.680 what I'm sure Liverpool fans may think of Cody Kappo's 1347 01:13:56.760 --> 01:14:01.359 finishing abilities, this is an obvious goal scoring opportunity with 1348 01:14:01.399 --> 01:14:05.119 a player of a professional level getting the ball up 1349 01:14:05.119 --> 01:14:08.199 midfield with no one behind, no other defenders between him 1350 01:14:08.199 --> 01:14:09.399 and the goal. Does that make sense? 1351 01:14:09.520 --> 01:14:10.760 Yeah, so it's. 1352 01:14:10.680 --> 01:14:14.640 An obvious goal scoring opportunity. It's what should have happened 1353 01:14:14.720 --> 01:14:17.800 on that fateful night in Nashville back in twenty twenty. 1354 01:14:18.279 --> 01:14:22.119 But their MLS referees socided that Nashville deserves some credit there. 1355 01:14:22.119 --> 01:14:24.800 And I will never not forgive anything about that night 1356 01:14:24.880 --> 01:14:28.600 and will continue to say that that was that's where 1357 01:14:28.600 --> 01:14:30.520 it all went wrong. It would agree with me, I'm sure, 1358 01:14:30.520 --> 01:14:35.720 but this is definitely a red a red car jobs 1359 01:14:36.039 --> 01:14:39.680 situation because while I agree we're not like two meters 1360 01:14:39.680 --> 01:14:44.479 from goal, you have to ask yourself, well, is this 1361 01:14:44.680 --> 01:14:50.479 distance right? With all the other factors, this distance is 1362 01:14:50.720 --> 01:14:57.560 still an obvious goal scoring opportunity. That's the obvious opportunity 1363 01:14:58.159 --> 01:15:01.319 he will score because I mean, look, he could very 1364 01:15:01.680 --> 01:15:04.760 he could very well take a touch, take another touch, 1365 01:15:04.800 --> 01:15:06.439 and his touch is terrible and it goes right to 1366 01:15:06.439 --> 01:15:09.840 the goalkeeper. But there are still an obvious goal scoring opportunity. 1367 01:15:09.960 --> 01:15:13.920 I mean, Tristan Miyamba had an obvious goal scoring opportunity. 1368 01:15:14.279 --> 01:15:15.399 That doesn't mean that it's going. 1369 01:15:15.319 --> 01:15:19.920 To result in the goal, right, So now I have 1370 01:15:19.960 --> 01:15:25.039 a philosophical question. After you give your flowers since the heart. 1371 01:15:25.880 --> 01:15:27.479 Oh the way, John, I have one more from early 1372 01:15:27.560 --> 01:15:29.560 thing I got just where we're still we're still there. 1373 01:15:29.720 --> 01:15:29.960 Okay. 1374 01:15:30.039 --> 01:15:35.960 These referee uniforms Sean are hideous. They are terrible. Not 1375 01:15:36.079 --> 01:15:38.279 only do the shirts look like they came out there 1376 01:15:38.279 --> 01:15:40.159 and there. I've already started sweating, which we know is 1377 01:15:40.199 --> 01:15:42.479 impossible at England because it never gets above sixty nine 1378 01:15:42.479 --> 01:15:46.840 degrees correct, but it also the shorts with the white 1379 01:15:47.199 --> 01:15:50.800 stripes down the side. Every American referee right now is 1380 01:15:50.840 --> 01:15:53.880 screaming because those look like the shorts we are told 1381 01:15:54.000 --> 01:15:57.079 never ever, ever, ever ever wear, John, unless you are 1382 01:15:57.119 --> 01:15:59.159 the fourteen year old kid who's in his first ever 1383 01:15:59.279 --> 01:16:01.760 time refereeing because he's wearing his player shorts and hey, 1384 01:16:01.800 --> 01:16:05.880 we're just happy you're here. They look so unprofessional and 1385 01:16:05.920 --> 01:16:07.800 I won't even get into the fit. They don't look 1386 01:16:07.840 --> 01:16:10.119 like they fit the referee as well. They got water 1387 01:16:10.199 --> 01:16:12.600 splashes on them. What is going on? They got the 1388 01:16:12.680 --> 01:16:17.119 running like reflective parts around the shoulders. I mean, Puma 1389 01:16:17.359 --> 01:16:21.760 is a disgrace. Right now, this is terrible. 1390 01:16:22.880 --> 01:16:26.520 Oh yeah, nothing like trying to make your your your 1391 01:16:26.800 --> 01:16:28.359 your center f stand out even more. 1392 01:16:28.680 --> 01:16:31.279 Oh my goodness, They're bad John, They're bad. They're bad. 1393 01:16:31.359 --> 01:16:32.319 They're bad, They're bad. 1394 01:16:32.800 --> 01:16:35.760 Uh, you wanted to hand out some flowers? And as 1395 01:16:35.760 --> 01:16:38.000 I mentioned when I was doing the introduction to the show, 1396 01:16:39.680 --> 01:16:42.600 this has traditionally been a segment where we want to 1397 01:16:42.640 --> 01:16:45.840 be critical because we want the game to grow. But 1398 01:16:46.000 --> 01:16:49.399 this is the first time, I think, in cards and 1399 01:16:49.439 --> 01:16:54.520 calls and roughing down here where we have actually given 1400 01:16:54.920 --> 01:16:58.600 check marks and checkpluses and silver stars at the top 1401 01:16:58.640 --> 01:17:00.399 of the test. I mean, what the heck happen in here? 1402 01:17:01.319 --> 01:17:06.439 So, first off, unfortunately this goes against our beloved Atlanta United, 1403 01:17:06.520 --> 01:17:09.600 but the third goal that Colorado scores is a great 1404 01:17:09.720 --> 01:17:13.640 example of a referee doing both a wait and see 1405 01:17:14.159 --> 01:17:18.159 and advantage scenario. Right. I think it's fair to say 1406 01:17:18.239 --> 01:17:22.000 that was that Mehai who? 1407 01:17:22.279 --> 01:17:23.880 Or was that Bara call? 1408 01:17:24.239 --> 01:17:30.680 Who fouls the Colorado attacker coming into the boxom ball? Yeah, 1409 01:17:30.800 --> 01:17:35.039 it very much looks like it's a foul, even to 1410 01:17:35.079 --> 01:17:39.600 the point where maybe not clear clear cut. But as 1411 01:17:39.640 --> 01:17:43.079 a referee, what the what victory Buss does here is 1412 01:17:43.079 --> 01:17:45.359 he goes, oh, that is an action that I need 1413 01:17:45.399 --> 01:17:47.319 to be aware of. I don't know if he thought 1414 01:17:47.319 --> 01:17:49.159 it was a foul or not. We don't know. For sure, 1415 01:17:49.680 --> 01:17:52.479 but he then saw that ball after that contact go 1416 01:17:52.600 --> 01:17:56.920 directly to an attacking player inside the penalty area in 1417 01:17:56.960 --> 01:18:00.239 a very advantageous situation. So he waited and saw and 1418 01:18:00.399 --> 01:18:03.840 waited to see what happened. Eventually ends up calling like 1419 01:18:04.159 --> 01:18:06.760 not fully playing advantage because that's not what we have 1420 01:18:06.840 --> 01:18:09.199 to do here, but he lets the advantage play out. 1421 01:18:09.239 --> 01:18:12.680 He says, oh, Colorado is still in an attacking phase here. 1422 01:18:12.720 --> 01:18:14.560 They still have possession of the ball, they're still within 1423 01:18:15.000 --> 01:18:20.880 the penalty area, and obviously Colorado and scores. And look, 1424 01:18:21.840 --> 01:18:24.560 we can all hate on Brad Buzan when that time comes. 1425 01:18:24.840 --> 01:18:28.479 But caught everyone by surprise. I think is fair to 1426 01:18:28.520 --> 01:18:30.960 say this was a very good piece of refereeing when 1427 01:18:31.000 --> 01:18:32.720 it comes to the wait and see approach, just going 1428 01:18:32.840 --> 01:18:36.239 I think I saw something. Let's see how this plays out, 1429 01:18:36.520 --> 01:18:39.840 or let's see what happens here. But he said, okay, 1430 01:18:39.840 --> 01:18:41.680 well I'm not gonna just blow the whistle because that's 1431 01:18:41.720 --> 01:18:44.880 all found. Allow the ball to run. Sees that there's 1432 01:18:44.920 --> 01:18:47.800 an advantage. Obviously that advantage ends in a goal, and 1433 01:18:47.840 --> 01:18:50.279 that's that's good refereeing and a great example of why 1434 01:18:50.680 --> 01:18:53.760 as soccer referees we don't run around with the whistle 1435 01:18:53.760 --> 01:18:58.159 in our mouth. In basketball, that's a foul rights fou 1436 01:19:00.520 --> 01:19:02.880 In soccer we get to go all out of it. 1437 01:19:04.479 --> 01:19:07.520 So my philosophy partly against our irish. 1438 01:19:07.840 --> 01:19:08.840 Yes, beloved, Yes. 1439 01:19:09.399 --> 01:19:15.560 So my question for you philosophically this morning is how 1440 01:19:15.800 --> 01:19:22.159 difficult is it to be consistent over ninety minutes on 1441 01:19:22.279 --> 01:19:26.840 the norm because you could have a you could have 1442 01:19:26.920 --> 01:19:31.039 a match be what you navigate and everything is fine, 1443 01:19:31.079 --> 01:19:33.439 and you have you've set your boundaries and you've set 1444 01:19:33.479 --> 01:19:37.119 your pacing, and everybody knows what to expect. And then 1445 01:19:37.960 --> 01:19:42.880 if in the second forty five emotions get heated and 1446 01:19:42.960 --> 01:19:46.800 your emotions as center f get elevated in that, and 1447 01:19:46.960 --> 01:19:49.199 you get kind of caught up in that instead of 1448 01:19:49.239 --> 01:19:52.239 trying to navigate the pacing that you set in the 1449 01:19:52.279 --> 01:19:55.800 first forty five, how difficult is it to stay within 1450 01:19:55.880 --> 01:19:59.279 yourself and the parameters that you have set in a match? 1451 01:20:00.079 --> 01:20:02.520 Just in general, just in general terms, how difficult is 1452 01:20:02.520 --> 01:20:06.359 it to stay consistent and level headed over a ninety 1453 01:20:06.399 --> 01:20:08.920 minute period with your philosophy that you see that you 1454 01:20:09.000 --> 01:20:09.680 set up in a. 1455 01:20:09.560 --> 01:20:12.479 Man Well, I think there are two different things, John, 1456 01:20:12.640 --> 01:20:16.439 and I'm gonna say that you shouldn't be consistent throughout 1457 01:20:16.520 --> 01:20:18.880 ninety minutes because the match is going to change. Therefore, 1458 01:20:18.920 --> 01:20:21.720 you're going to have to change your approach. Right, as 1459 01:20:21.760 --> 01:20:24.600 you just said, first forty five minutes, everyone's friends. They're 1460 01:20:24.600 --> 01:20:27.399 making flower crowns, they're holding hands, they're having a great time. 1461 01:20:28.119 --> 01:20:30.199 Something happens at the locker room and half time and 1462 01:20:30.239 --> 01:20:32.119 all of a sudden they come out and now they're saying, well, 1463 01:20:32.520 --> 01:20:35.800 somehow they brought a knife to a gunfight, and some 1464 01:20:35.880 --> 01:20:38.000 dudes got an AK forty seven to the other side, 1465 01:20:38.000 --> 01:20:41.399 and one dude's over there, you know, launching Handgrid aids, well, yeah, 1466 01:20:41.399 --> 01:20:46.079 we got to change our approach. So consistency though about 1467 01:20:46.079 --> 01:20:50.600 our mindset, about our level headedness. I get what you're saying, 1468 01:20:50.600 --> 01:20:52.520 But at the same time, I can't be levelheaded when 1469 01:20:52.560 --> 01:20:54.880 guys are launching nukes at each other. We need to 1470 01:20:54.880 --> 01:20:57.479 say whoa whoa, whoa, whoa whoa. Now, you are supposed 1471 01:20:57.479 --> 01:20:59.920 to be an independent mediator. You're supposed to be a 1472 01:21:00.079 --> 01:21:02.720 fair adjudicator, and that's what you have to keep that 1473 01:21:02.800 --> 01:21:05.000 mindset of. I'm here to make sure this game is 1474 01:21:05.000 --> 01:21:08.960 played in a fair manner, fair and safe. That's our goal, 1475 01:21:09.279 --> 01:21:15.880 right Obviously, you know if you want to be level headed, 1476 01:21:15.920 --> 01:21:18.840 you want to be neutral, what you want to be calm, cool, collected, 1477 01:21:19.520 --> 01:21:22.720 and that that is the goal. But even still, you 1478 01:21:22.760 --> 01:21:28.119 can't always be calm, cool, collected when major incidents break 1479 01:21:28.159 --> 01:21:31.840 out because you kind of need to raise your energy 1480 01:21:31.920 --> 01:21:34.840 level to match what's going on. Otherwise these guys are 1481 01:21:34.840 --> 01:21:39.600 going to run the match themselves. And so I get 1482 01:21:39.600 --> 01:21:43.600 what you're trying to ask, but the reality is no 1483 01:21:43.760 --> 01:21:48.239 match is played under perfect conditions, right it ninety three 1484 01:21:48.279 --> 01:21:52.880 degrees in one hundred million percent humidity, or you know, 1485 01:21:52.920 --> 01:21:55.279 we've got the two biggest rivals in the world going 1486 01:21:55.319 --> 01:21:57.359 off against each other, and we know that someone's about 1487 01:21:57.359 --> 01:21:59.439 to throw a punch from the first time we you know, 1488 01:21:59.680 --> 01:22:03.319 blow whistle, right, you have to be aware of what's 1489 01:22:03.359 --> 01:22:04.760 going around this. So I would just say that you 1490 01:22:04.800 --> 01:22:08.159 need to be aware, you need to be proactive, and 1491 01:22:08.199 --> 01:22:11.840 you need to be fair. Again, we want fair and 1492 01:22:12.000 --> 01:22:14.439 safe game. So I get what you're trying to ask, 1493 01:22:14.439 --> 01:22:16.439 But again, if your goal is to be fair and safe, 1494 01:22:16.479 --> 01:22:19.760 then I think the consistency will be there because you 1495 01:22:19.800 --> 01:22:24.159 are still trying to call a game in a way 1496 01:22:24.199 --> 01:22:26.760 that it needs to be called. But I mean again, 1497 01:22:27.319 --> 01:22:29.600 over ninety minutes. It's really tough. And in fact, I 1498 01:22:30.000 --> 01:22:33.319 worked with a referee, Naint Brian is really good referee. 1499 01:22:33.319 --> 01:22:35.760 I've learned a lot from him and he always said, 1500 01:22:35.760 --> 01:22:40.600 there's three phases of a match. There's setting the tempo, 1501 01:22:41.960 --> 01:22:45.039 and then there's adjusting the tempo, and then there's maintaining 1502 01:22:45.079 --> 01:22:47.960 the tempo. So you want to come out there in 1503 01:22:47.960 --> 01:22:50.039 the first third of the match, maybe not third, but 1504 01:22:50.119 --> 01:22:53.439 maybe ten minutes right and go depending on how long 1505 01:22:53.479 --> 01:22:55.800 your match is. Yeah, okay, this is the match I 1506 01:22:55.800 --> 01:22:57.399 want to see call we're gonna do this. We're gonna 1507 01:22:57.399 --> 01:23:01.560 do this. Okay. Well, within i've been this, you may realize, oh, 1508 01:23:01.760 --> 01:23:03.479 these guys aren't playing the way that I want to 1509 01:23:03.479 --> 01:23:05.600 play that I want to see them play. And that 1510 01:23:05.680 --> 01:23:08.720 happens a lot of times, and they're especially at my level. 1511 01:23:08.720 --> 01:23:11.119 I'll use that because I think it allows for a 1512 01:23:11.119 --> 01:23:15.840 little bit more variance. Unfortunately, every U fourteen match is 1513 01:23:15.880 --> 01:23:18.039 not going to play out the same. It's just not. 1514 01:23:20.199 --> 01:23:23.479 Sometimes they come out and the guys are especially the 1515 01:23:23.479 --> 01:23:26.800 guys the girls because they are mature people. At that point. 1516 01:23:27.239 --> 01:23:30.720 The guys come out and you know, there they forget 1517 01:23:30.720 --> 01:23:32.439 that the goal of the day is to play soccer, 1518 01:23:33.000 --> 01:23:35.039 and you know, there's things that are going on, like 1519 01:23:35.039 --> 01:23:37.800 they're using their hands too much, they're you know, they're 1520 01:23:37.800 --> 01:23:39.680 not really focused on when me win the ball. They're 1521 01:23:39.680 --> 01:23:42.800 focused about running the guy over. And I got to go, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. 1522 01:23:42.840 --> 01:23:44.319 That's not what we're here to play soccer. We're here 1523 01:23:44.359 --> 01:23:45.880 to play soccer. We're not here to try to play 1524 01:23:45.880 --> 01:23:48.760 bumper cards. Right. And So while I may come into 1525 01:23:48.800 --> 01:23:50.319 the match saying this is what I want to see. 1526 01:23:50.359 --> 01:23:51.800 I want to be on this and this and this, 1527 01:23:53.079 --> 01:23:55.279 five ten minutes into the match and I go oof, 1528 01:23:55.520 --> 01:23:59.079 all right, I got to adjust my perspective, my tempo, 1529 01:23:59.239 --> 01:24:03.520 my control. And again it's adjusting to what the match 1530 01:24:03.800 --> 01:24:05.920 is going. I may need to go a little harder. 1531 01:24:06.079 --> 01:24:08.000 I maybe be a little softer, you know, I make 1532 01:24:08.039 --> 01:24:09.840 it just need to go, well, this is how they 1533 01:24:09.840 --> 01:24:12.640 want to play. So I got to adjust and say, well, 1534 01:24:12.680 --> 01:24:13.960 if that's how they're going to do it and they're 1535 01:24:14.000 --> 01:24:16.760 fine with it, then they're fine with it. That's that's 1536 01:24:16.800 --> 01:24:19.000 what they want to do. Where am I going? Well, 1537 01:24:19.039 --> 01:24:23.800 it seems like you know, we're causing problems. There's safety issues. 1538 01:24:23.840 --> 01:24:26.600 I need to be a little more proactive and calling foul. 1539 01:24:26.680 --> 01:24:29.359 So that's kind of that middle I don't want to 1540 01:24:29.399 --> 01:24:32.359 say third, but like the third phase with them or 1541 01:24:32.399 --> 01:24:35.880 the second phase of the matches to say that middle third. Yeah, 1542 01:24:35.920 --> 01:24:38.760 and then you have at the end you're either maintaining 1543 01:24:39.000 --> 01:24:42.000 your tempo or you're tightening it, depending on what the 1544 01:24:42.039 --> 01:24:44.159 match wants out of you. So ideally you've set that 1545 01:24:44.680 --> 01:24:46.239 standard and you go, this is what we're doing. Now, 1546 01:24:46.439 --> 01:24:48.039 we've got it all. We're going to keep it the 1547 01:24:48.039 --> 01:24:50.279 rest of the match. Again, sometimes it doesn't happen, but 1548 01:24:50.880 --> 01:24:53.399 you want to just maintain your control over the match then, 1549 01:24:53.479 --> 01:24:57.600 and it's hard. Those last ten minutes are tough, John, 1550 01:24:57.720 --> 01:25:00.199 because you're a little tired. You've been running around for 1551 01:25:00.239 --> 01:25:04.319 ninety minutes. Some dudes pissed off because the other dude 1552 01:25:04.319 --> 01:25:06.399 did something or said something about his mom, you know, 1553 01:25:06.479 --> 01:25:08.399 twenty five minutes ago, and that's still in the back 1554 01:25:08.439 --> 01:25:12.840 of the mind. It's hard. And so consistency again is 1555 01:25:12.840 --> 01:25:15.800 more about being fair and safe, not about the call 1556 01:25:15.880 --> 01:25:17.680 from the first minute as the same as the call 1557 01:25:17.720 --> 01:25:18.600 from the ninetieth minute. 1558 01:25:19.119 --> 01:25:22.640 How hard is it to be consistent within the rhythm 1559 01:25:22.720 --> 01:25:26.479 of a match with the personality that the match has 1560 01:25:26.680 --> 01:25:31.000 and you're as a ref adjusting to it. Because there 1561 01:25:31.000 --> 01:25:35.359 are matches where you know, first forty five your everything's 1562 01:25:35.600 --> 01:25:38.960 everything's there, everything's managed, everyone knows the pacing, you know, 1563 01:25:39.000 --> 01:25:42.399 the pacing is a center ref and then the game 1564 01:25:42.520 --> 01:25:44.960 kind of gets away from you. How hard is it 1565 01:25:45.079 --> 01:25:48.159 to once you've once a ref has lost control of 1566 01:25:48.159 --> 01:25:51.880 a match emotionally what have you? How difficult is it 1567 01:25:52.039 --> 01:25:57.479 for that ref to reclaim and get back under control 1568 01:25:57.840 --> 01:26:01.119 or once a match is gone, are you chasing at 1569 01:26:01.119 --> 01:26:01.560 that point? 1570 01:26:02.680 --> 01:26:02.960 Yeah? 1571 01:26:03.279 --> 01:26:05.560 I mean again, that's why we try to think of 1572 01:26:05.600 --> 01:26:09.159 it as Okay, how do I respond to what's going on? 1573 01:26:09.319 --> 01:26:12.960 Because you're right, it's it's hard to maintain full control. 1574 01:26:13.159 --> 01:26:18.840 It's hard to I spent Again, these guys out there 1575 01:26:18.880 --> 01:26:22.319 at the professional level, John are making a lot more 1576 01:26:22.359 --> 01:26:26.239 money than the referees are. And while the referees, I 1577 01:26:26.239 --> 01:26:28.920 will say, are mostly in very good shape, they're not 1578 01:26:29.119 --> 01:26:33.239 training two hours a day plus then fitness training every 1579 01:26:33.319 --> 01:26:36.199 day to you know, be the most elite athlete in 1580 01:26:36.239 --> 01:26:38.920 the world. And I'm sure they're tracking their diet, but 1581 01:26:38.920 --> 01:26:42.199 they're probably not. They probably don't have a team dietician 1582 01:26:42.279 --> 01:26:47.600 preparing them breakfast lunch and dinner every day. So you know, 1583 01:26:47.720 --> 01:26:50.479 when you're out there running around keeping up with all 1584 01:26:50.479 --> 01:26:55.600 these guys, it is hard because you may not feel 1585 01:26:56.399 --> 01:27:00.199 the match getting out of hand the way that we 1586 01:27:00.359 --> 01:27:04.319 on TV might see it. It is so when you're 1587 01:27:04.399 --> 01:27:06.039 right there in the think of it, sometimes you go, 1588 01:27:06.119 --> 01:27:07.760 I feel good when you're talking about I'm keeping up 1589 01:27:07.800 --> 01:27:09.680 at the pace of play. You know, I feel like 1590 01:27:09.720 --> 01:27:12.640 I'm talking to the players decently. You know, yeah they're 1591 01:27:12.640 --> 01:27:15.039 a little disrespectful, and yeah there's some fouls flying, but 1592 01:27:15.119 --> 01:27:17.039 like you may not see it the way that on 1593 01:27:17.199 --> 01:27:19.119 TV we see it. So I think that's kind of 1594 01:27:19.159 --> 01:27:21.039 the problem is sometimes you're in there and you're going, 1595 01:27:21.439 --> 01:27:24.760 I don't know, it feels fine to me. But also 1596 01:27:24.840 --> 01:27:27.199 I think one of the things that referees need to 1597 01:27:27.239 --> 01:27:29.159 do better at. And I think one of the things 1598 01:27:29.199 --> 01:27:33.279 that some of the best referees that we've seen have 1599 01:27:33.920 --> 01:27:38.159 is they have a personality and they know who they are. 1600 01:27:39.960 --> 01:27:43.920 They're not changing that necessarily. Now you may alter it 1601 01:27:43.960 --> 01:27:55.039 again when we are people in a workplace. Okay, you know, John, 1602 01:27:55.119 --> 01:27:58.399 you're you know who your personality is. You know how 1603 01:27:58.520 --> 01:28:04.920 you act, how you talk, how you does you would 1604 01:28:05.000 --> 01:28:07.319 like to say that's going to be the same, right 1605 01:28:07.840 --> 01:28:09.720 every time you every day you show up to work. 1606 01:28:11.960 --> 01:28:15.399 Sometimes though it doesn't right, I mean it just and 1607 01:28:15.560 --> 01:28:17.920 so you have to be a little bit reactive to 1608 01:28:17.920 --> 01:28:19.800 the people you're working with. But the number one thing 1609 01:28:19.840 --> 01:28:23.800 I try to tell player or young referees is be 1610 01:28:24.000 --> 01:28:28.640 confident in yourself. Be confident in who you are, and 1611 01:28:28.760 --> 01:28:31.319 just you just have to be yourself out there. Because 1612 01:28:31.760 --> 01:28:33.680 my way of controlling the match is how I control 1613 01:28:33.720 --> 01:28:37.079 the match. I cannot control the match like John Freeman. 1614 01:28:37.239 --> 01:28:37.479 Not you. 1615 01:28:37.760 --> 01:28:40.920 John Freeman control the match. We're We're two different people. 1616 01:28:41.199 --> 01:28:43.159 I can't control the match the way but a little 1617 01:28:43.159 --> 01:28:45.479 bit I do like Philip does. I won't argue with that. 1618 01:28:45.520 --> 01:28:46.760 However, I like the style. 1619 01:28:47.319 --> 01:28:50.359 But Philip Dosh and I aren't have the same referee. 1620 01:28:50.880 --> 01:28:53.000 We're not going to have the same approach. So you 1621 01:28:53.039 --> 01:28:54.720 just have to be confident in who you are and 1622 01:28:54.760 --> 01:28:58.760 you have to really dig into those interpersonal you know, 1623 01:28:58.840 --> 01:29:04.720 interpersonal communicatkills. But hopefully you've developed to lean on those 1624 01:29:04.760 --> 01:29:08.039 to help mitigate any problems. But it is hard John, 1625 01:29:08.079 --> 01:29:11.439 because again sometimes we don't see that it's a little 1626 01:29:11.439 --> 01:29:13.119 out of hand because you're like, what are you talking about. 1627 01:29:13.159 --> 01:29:17.079 I think if I feel fine, but I'm good. Yeah, 1628 01:29:17.279 --> 01:29:18.760 And unfortunately sometimes it's just isn't. 1629 01:29:19.520 --> 01:29:21.079 And that's kind of what I was getting into. 1630 01:29:21.199 --> 01:29:23.960 So what's the latest with soccer for USPOD and what 1631 01:29:24.039 --> 01:29:26.319 else is going on in the soccer for USPOD verse. 1632 01:29:27.079 --> 01:29:30.239 Well, our goal obviously, I'm traveling today, John, I'll be 1633 01:29:30.279 --> 01:29:32.560 flying out of Raleigh nice airport by the way. I 1634 01:29:32.560 --> 01:29:34.640 don't know if you've flown in here recently, very nice airport. 1635 01:29:36.239 --> 01:29:37.960 I'll be flying home tonight. And so I think our 1636 01:29:37.960 --> 01:29:41.560 goals can record either tomorrow or Wednesday. And well, yes, 1637 01:29:41.680 --> 01:29:44.159 the European leagues have kind of started. We are looking 1638 01:29:44.199 --> 01:29:48.479 at key players US M and T players and how 1639 01:29:49.479 --> 01:29:54.359 their European season needs to be. You know, look, we 1640 01:29:54.399 --> 01:29:56.079 had a World Cup at home coming up at the 1641 01:29:56.159 --> 01:29:58.800 end of next year or the end of this upcoming season, 1642 01:29:59.000 --> 01:30:01.279 you say, And our goal is to try to look 1643 01:30:01.279 --> 01:30:02.960 at these players and say, Okay, what do they need 1644 01:30:03.000 --> 01:30:06.000 to do to make the US M and T more 1645 01:30:06.000 --> 01:30:11.239 competitive come next summer, which John might be tough. 1646 01:30:11.520 --> 01:30:13.279 Yeah, we'll give it a shot. As always. 1647 01:30:13.479 --> 01:30:15.960 Uh, hopefully you've enjoyed your time up there in the 1648 01:30:16.079 --> 01:30:18.720 research triangle and just. 1649 01:30:19.039 --> 01:30:21.199 A lot of research, John, I feel like much smarter. 1650 01:30:21.399 --> 01:30:24.000 Somehow just being close to Duke and UNC have made 1651 01:30:24.039 --> 01:30:26.119 me a supremely more cocky person. I don't know how 1652 01:30:26.119 --> 01:30:28.479 that works out with these two programs. 1653 01:30:28.720 --> 01:30:30.199 Just kind of rubs off on everybody. 1654 01:30:30.279 --> 01:30:35.079 So no shade, no shade. But you know, I did 1655 01:30:35.199 --> 01:30:37.600 go to school here, and I know how those two 1656 01:30:37.640 --> 01:30:38.920 fan bases love to act. 1657 01:30:39.119 --> 01:30:41.199 Yes, and I figured you would be adding Pit to 1658 01:30:41.239 --> 01:30:43.079 your list of low down, dirty cheaters. 1659 01:30:43.119 --> 01:30:43.800 But that's just great. 1660 01:30:44.239 --> 01:30:46.239 Well they're just low down and dirty. They don't have 1661 01:30:46.279 --> 01:30:48.119 to cheat, they're just they're despicable. 1662 01:30:48.199 --> 01:30:48.560 Thank you. 1663 01:30:49.159 --> 01:30:50.680 They're in that Orlando category. 1664 01:30:50.840 --> 01:30:54.880 Okay, all right, it is a fault when it comes 1665 01:30:54.880 --> 01:30:57.920 to Pitt. Just be safe getting home. My friend will 1666 01:30:57.920 --> 01:31:00.000 catch up with you next time. And when you're back. 1667 01:31:00.279 --> 01:31:03.079 All right, y'all, have a wonderful Monday. 1668 01:31:03.239 --> 01:31:03.720 There you go. 1669 01:31:03.760 --> 01:31:05.800 There goes Bart bart Keeler from the soccer for US 1670 01:31:05.880 --> 01:31:12.359 PO D And it is listen like subscribe buy the 1671 01:31:12.359 --> 01:31:15.880 man of coffee all the things, and he is our 1672 01:31:15.960 --> 01:31:19.960 voice of national team stuff. He's our voice of everything 1673 01:31:20.000 --> 01:31:21.880 going on when it comes to cards and calls and 1674 01:31:22.520 --> 01:31:26.359 what folks might be looking at in certain situations and 1675 01:31:26.800 --> 01:31:30.600 all of all of that. So that's the that's the 1676 01:31:31.039 --> 01:31:34.880 larger point that we like to get across in all 1677 01:31:34.920 --> 01:31:37.760 of these discussions that we have on a weekly basis 1678 01:31:38.479 --> 01:31:42.399 of Okay, what are they seeing, what are they processing? 1679 01:31:43.079 --> 01:31:43.880 What's the rule? 1680 01:31:44.840 --> 01:31:49.920 And how is it being reinforced, implemented, projected all of 1681 01:31:49.920 --> 01:31:55.079 those things. So that's why we we walk through calls 1682 01:31:55.119 --> 01:31:56.960 that we sit there and we go, oh, hey, what 1683 01:31:57.079 --> 01:32:01.159 about this? And then you get a quirk like we 1684 01:32:01.279 --> 01:32:05.920 had with the law from twenty nineteen about proximity to 1685 01:32:06.079 --> 01:32:09.800 walls with players and things, and so it's just stuff 1686 01:32:09.840 --> 01:32:11.960 that we need to be reminded about on a weekly 1687 01:32:12.000 --> 01:32:16.399 basis where okay, refs handle things in certain ways and manners, 1688 01:32:16.439 --> 01:32:19.039 and it's like, okay, so what was that ref seeing there? 1689 01:32:19.279 --> 01:32:21.640 What was they what were they seeing there? All of that. 1690 01:32:21.800 --> 01:32:23.800 So it's just to kind of look at it as 1691 01:32:23.840 --> 01:32:26.960 almost like a defensive driving course when it comes to 1692 01:32:27.760 --> 01:32:30.960 everything that we see involving the folks with the whistles 1693 01:32:30.960 --> 01:32:33.159 and the cards on a weekly basis and so, well, 1694 01:32:33.159 --> 01:32:33.920 what did they see here? 1695 01:32:33.960 --> 01:32:36.159 What do we need to see here? That kind of stuff. 1696 01:32:36.159 --> 01:32:39.600 So that's why we have enlisted Bart to kind of 1697 01:32:39.640 --> 01:32:43.319 walk us through these things every single week and agree, disagree, 1698 01:32:43.399 --> 01:32:45.439 what have you.

It's Lloyd Oers, it is Matt Webb, 1931 01:45:07.720 --> 01:45:11.199 it's justin Justin Wally. Then that you hear from them, 1932 01:45:11.239 --> 01:45:13.079 you have to hear from one of the moms who 1933 01:45:13.199 --> 01:45:18.359 had twins playing on the team, And it was a 1934 01:45:18.399 --> 01:45:21.399 really cool experience to see history the way that it 1935 01:45:21.520 --> 01:45:25.880 was this past weekend. So that is one of the 1936 01:45:25.960 --> 01:45:29.000 things that is really cool about the sport and how 1937 01:45:29.039 --> 01:45:32.800 it grows.

How what do 1944 01:45:55.960 --> 01:45:57.960 we need to make sure that we get a check 1945 01:45:58.000 --> 01:45:58.640 mark from you? 1946 01:45:59.159 --> 01:45:59.600 Or shoot? 1947 01:45:59.640 --> 01:46:04.840 Even Honka caff considering that, you know, as Greenland was 1948 01:46:04.840 --> 01:46:08.119 trying to get into Conca Calf because nobody in Europe 1949 01:46:08.119 --> 01:46:09.680 wants to pay attention to him. And I think Conca 1950 01:46:09.720 --> 01:46:11.880 CAF is missing a great opportunity here by the way, 1951 01:46:13.439 --> 01:46:20.239 that with the concentration of Marshally's population that is there 1952 01:46:20.319 --> 01:46:24.800 in northwest Arkansas, eastern Oklahoma and in that section of 1953 01:46:24.800 --> 01:46:27.600 the United States. Second largest concentration of Marsha Lee's person 1954 01:46:28.039 --> 01:46:32.119 of population short of the island chain itself, is right there, 1955 01:46:32.439 --> 01:46:35.039 so it makes sense to apply to a victim Montaliani 1956 01:46:35.560 --> 01:46:37.880 and to Oceania as well. 1957 01:46:37.920 --> 01:46:39.720 So Oceania, CONCA, CAF heads up. 1958 01:46:41.800 --> 01:46:43.520 That's the next step and trying to figure that out 1959 01:46:43.600 --> 01:46:46.119 and how to continue this momentum over the next year 1960 01:46:46.199 --> 01:46:50.439 when it comes to what you're seeing from them, And 1961 01:46:50.520 --> 01:46:52.720 they made that point to the players after the match 1962 01:46:52.760 --> 01:46:56.399 as well. But got to Spring del Arkansas in time 1963 01:46:56.439 --> 01:46:59.880 to see that, came back yesterday and got back to 1964 01:47:00.880 --> 01:47:06.720 Kennesaw just in time to see the twos, and it 1965 01:47:06.760 --> 01:47:11.760 was a matchup against Crown Legacy where it was massively 1966 01:47:11.800 --> 01:47:15.399 important for the Twos to keep the beat so they 1967 01:47:15.439 --> 01:47:20.359 could stay in the playoff hunt. Match was back and 1968 01:47:20.399 --> 01:47:25.279 forth and it was chippy at points, and you had 1969 01:47:25.720 --> 01:47:26.880 folks that were going in. 1970 01:47:26.920 --> 01:47:28.079 There was a lot of hard tackles. 1971 01:47:28.079 --> 01:47:30.159 Of course, it's Atlanta and Charlotte, it's the twos in 1972 01:47:30.199 --> 01:47:31.920 Crown Legacy, not really a surprise. 1973 01:47:32.880 --> 01:47:34.640 So you get to. 1974 01:47:36.239 --> 01:47:40.840 The eighty third minute, here's what happened at the fraction 1975 01:47:41.000 --> 01:47:44.319 last night. Here on the SDH network, Maddie and Jason 1976 01:47:44.359 --> 01:47:44.600 on the. 1977 01:47:44.560 --> 01:47:48.840 Call played long, tried to be settled by Berchiemus, but 1978 01:47:48.920 --> 01:47:53.439 eventually taken away. Cooper Sanchez, good ball from Cooper to 1979 01:47:53.479 --> 01:47:55.000 find We say, we say. 1980 01:47:55.119 --> 01:47:57.199 Edge of the eighteen into the eighteen, cut back to. 1981 01:47:57.279 --> 01:48:07.319 We are go go go, Lenda United two Cooper Sanchez, Gabriel. 1982 01:48:07.399 --> 01:48:10.079 We say, Patrick Welea one nil. 1983 01:48:10.920 --> 01:48:13.239 Patrick Wea doing the little dans after that one, and 1984 01:48:13.319 --> 01:48:14.199 as he should. 1985 01:48:14.479 --> 01:48:15.960 The build up to that is perfect. 1986 01:48:16.199 --> 01:48:19.960 It's Majoub who's able to help help Sanchez get the opportunity. 1987 01:48:20.159 --> 01:48:23.359 Sanchez sees that, Pat sees that. Gabriel, we says, making 1988 01:48:23.399 --> 01:48:26.479 the run in. It's a beautiful ball from Sanchez, and 1989 01:48:26.520 --> 01:48:29.479 then we say that connection between him and Patrick Guia, 1990 01:48:29.520 --> 01:48:32.239 that's something that extends off of the field. It comes 1991 01:48:32.239 --> 01:48:34.880 into full tuition here on the field, and it's a 1992 01:48:34.960 --> 01:48:38.279 perfectly placed ball to Patrick Weia makes it one nill 1993 01:48:38.399 --> 01:48:39.399 for Atlanta United. 1994 01:48:40.439 --> 01:48:44.840 The ball from Cooper Sanchez was brilliant to jumpstart the attack. 1995 01:48:44.880 --> 01:48:48.359 And you mentioned the connection with we say and Wea. 1996 01:48:49.319 --> 01:48:52.760 We say got into the eighteen, got his head up 1997 01:48:52.840 --> 01:48:56.319 and Wea had pulled off of the two center backs, 1998 01:48:56.720 --> 01:49:00.159 and we say knew exactly where he was going cut 1999 01:49:00.199 --> 01:49:03.279 back to him inside of the right foot. Patrick Wia 2000 01:49:03.359 --> 01:49:06.640 gives it Landy United to the one nil lead in 2001 01:49:06.680 --> 01:49:08.039 the seventy ninth minute. 2002 01:49:08.479 --> 01:49:10.760 And they hang on from there once again, a big 2003 01:49:10.800 --> 01:49:14.800 win for Atlanta United two to keep the beat in 2004 01:49:14.840 --> 01:49:19.079 the Eastern Conference. And just so you know where things 2005 01:49:19.159 --> 01:49:23.680 stand in the East with the twos right now in 2006 01:49:23.680 --> 01:49:26.800 in the Eastern Conference. The race to get in in 2007 01:49:26.880 --> 01:49:29.680 the Eastern Conference is what we're looking at when it 2008 01:49:29.720 --> 01:49:33.960 comes to the tail end here the season, uh twos 2009 01:49:34.000 --> 01:49:36.159 reveal be up here in just a little bit. Once 2010 01:49:36.199 --> 01:49:37.960 we go off the air, we'll piece it together. You'll 2011 01:49:37.960 --> 01:49:41.800 hear post from Toto Manju Patrick Willa, you'll hear the highlights, 2012 01:49:41.840 --> 01:49:44.000 you'll get standings and all of that. So here's how 2013 01:49:44.039 --> 01:49:46.000 it here's how it lays out right now in the 2014 01:49:46.039 --> 01:49:49.680 Eastern Conference for MLS Next Pro next matchup for at 2015 01:49:49.760 --> 01:49:53.800 Landy United two by the way in Osciola Heritage Park 2016 01:49:53.880 --> 01:49:58.399 taking on OCB Saturday night. And so we'll have that 2017 01:49:58.439 --> 01:50:01.079 one for you on the work as well. So here's 2018 01:50:01.079 --> 01:50:04.520 the Eastern Conference, just so you know where things are 2019 01:50:04.520 --> 01:50:08.920 in the East. Red Bulls two two points higher than 2020 01:50:09.000 --> 01:50:12.079 Huntsville City Football Club. Huntsville City is coming here at 2021 01:50:12.119 --> 01:50:15.159 the end of the month. They're here on the thirtieth, 2022 01:50:15.479 --> 01:50:19.720 So Atlanta first team is in Nashville, same time, earlier 2023 01:50:19.840 --> 01:50:23.000 start time. It'll be the start of the second half, 2024 01:50:23.039 --> 01:50:27.319 I think when Atlanta United two is taking on Huntsville 2025 01:50:27.319 --> 01:50:31.359 City when the first team starts in Nashville. So you've 2026 01:50:31.359 --> 01:50:33.399 got that going on on the thirtieth. By the way, 2027 01:50:34.000 --> 01:50:37.279 So Red Bulls two two points clear of Huntsville City 2028 01:50:37.279 --> 01:50:40.920 Football Club. Hunt City's got a match in hand, Union 2029 01:50:40.960 --> 01:50:44.199 two at forty two, fire To at forty one, revs 2030 01:50:44.239 --> 01:50:47.840 To at thirty eight, same number of wins as Chattanooga. 2031 01:50:47.880 --> 01:50:50.920 They have two matches in hand, meaning the revs and 2032 01:50:50.960 --> 01:50:53.960 a far superior goal difference. They have a ten goal 2033 01:50:54.119 --> 01:50:57.479 difference in the positive when it comes to goal difference. 2034 01:50:58.399 --> 01:51:01.920 Toronto FC two's at thirty one one. NYCFC two is 2035 01:51:01.960 --> 01:51:03.720 at twenty nine. They have two more wins in FC 2036 01:51:03.800 --> 01:51:08.399 Cincinnati two. That's why NYCFC two is in the playoffs 2037 01:51:08.439 --> 01:51:11.800 as the eight right now and FC Cincinnati two is 2038 01:51:11.920 --> 01:51:14.840 out of the playoffs right now at twenty nine points. 2039 01:51:15.319 --> 01:51:18.039 Orlando City Be's at twenty seven, two more wins than 2040 01:51:18.079 --> 01:51:21.560 Carolina Core that's ten and eleven Crown Legacy. With the 2041 01:51:21.680 --> 01:51:25.439 loss last night, they're at twenty six points twenty two 2042 01:51:25.439 --> 01:51:30.359 matches at Lanta United two, two matches in hand with 2043 01:51:30.560 --> 01:51:34.520 everyone who is above them short of SC Cincinnati. So 2044 01:51:34.560 --> 01:51:38.600 if Atlanta United wins their two matches in hand, they 2045 01:51:38.640 --> 01:51:41.600 would be at thirty one points, they would be in 2046 01:51:41.640 --> 01:51:46.840 the playoffs at the eight spot because it would be 2047 01:51:46.880 --> 01:51:49.720 two wins and they would be two wins behind Toronto, 2048 01:51:50.000 --> 01:51:55.239 So two wins right now they would be in the 2049 01:51:55.279 --> 01:51:58.520 playoffs as the eight seed. But right now at Lanta 2050 01:51:58.600 --> 01:52:01.720 United two twenty five points, two matches in hand heading 2051 01:52:01.720 --> 01:52:05.159 to Orlando this weekend. We'll catch up with Jose Silva 2052 01:52:05.520 --> 01:52:07.920 later in the week and that'll be on the pregame 2053 01:52:07.960 --> 01:52:13.439 show from Orlando. Messi and Friends two they are in 2054 01:52:13.720 --> 01:52:17.079 fourteenth to twenty two points and Crew two they are 2055 01:52:17.119 --> 01:52:20.319 at seventeen points through twenty one matches four thirteen to 2056 01:52:20.399 --> 01:52:24.760 four and one and a goal difference this season of 2057 01:52:24.880 --> 01:52:30.239 minus twenty. So that's where Atlanta United two is right now, 2058 01:52:30.720 --> 01:52:33.439 and that's the race that they are getting into when 2059 01:52:33.439 --> 01:52:36.560 it comes to the postseason for the first time ever 2060 01:52:37.039 --> 01:52:41.960 in MLS in MLS next pro Okay, gossip, ruber and innuendo, 2061 01:52:42.000 --> 01:52:43.520 What to watch, where to watch it, how to watch it? 2062 01:52:43.560 --> 01:52:45.039 Obviously, what you've got. 2063 01:52:44.840 --> 01:52:48.800 To get into today is the tail end of week 2064 01:52:48.880 --> 01:52:51.680 number one in the Premier League.

So it'll be 2079 01:53:36.279 --> 01:53:38.680 like our graduate level class when it comes to multi 2080 01:53:38.680 --> 01:53:41.640 club ownership. We'll start that tomorrow as well.

And there's some stuff that our friend 2109 01:55:19.840 --> 01:55:22.560 Ben Jacobs came in with this morning to kind of 2110 01:55:22.600 --> 01:55:24.920 keep an eye on things in your fantasy teams too, 2111 01:55:25.000 --> 01:55:27.680 because you know, God knows, I started folks in fantasy 2112 01:55:27.680 --> 01:55:28.920 this week that are probably not going to be with 2113 01:55:28.960 --> 01:55:30.960 the teams that they sat. 2114 01:55:31.600 --> 01:55:33.279 Joan Visa has unfollowed. 2115 01:55:33.319 --> 01:55:37.039 Brentford changed his profile picture to black and removed all 2116 01:55:37.039 --> 01:55:39.520 club photos from his Instagram account as he looks to 2117 01:55:39.600 --> 01:55:40.119 leave the club. 2118 01:55:41.399 --> 01:55:43.399 That'll get there, that'll make it happen. 2119 01:55:44.079 --> 01:55:47.199 This has moved to Newcastle currently being blocked by Brentford. 2120 01:55:47.239 --> 01:55:52.640 As revealed by Alex Crook, Unhappy, Brentford will now engage 2121 01:55:52.800 --> 01:55:56.159 for over a sale over a sale unless a sixty 2122 01:55:56.279 --> 01:56:00.399 million plus pound valuation is met, despite informing Visa a 2123 01:56:00.439 --> 01:56:03.680 few weeks ago they would entertain a sale.

Brentford insists Dongo Watara is 2127 01:56:12.920 --> 01:56:15.520 a Boomo replacement and for a Visa exit to happen, 2128 01:56:15.800 --> 01:56:18.039 another Ford must be added as well as their high 2129 01:56:18.159 --> 01:56:21.439 valuation is met. Bill All el Kanus has told Lester 2130 01:56:21.560 --> 01:56:24.359 City he wants to join Crystal Palace Leicester one around 2131 01:56:24.399 --> 01:56:29.640 thirty million relegation release clause has expired. El Hanus is 2132 01:56:29.720 --> 01:56:32.720 viewed as a replacement for eberci Esa for Crystal Palace 2133 01:56:33.439 --> 01:56:38.840 and Newcastle set to resume talks once again. Visa now 2134 01:56:39.000 --> 01:56:42.560 pushing for an exit. Keep an eye on that. Understand 2135 01:56:42.560 --> 01:56:45.680 links with Chelsea and BOSTONI why to the mark That's 2136 01:56:45.720 --> 01:56:49.920 been's favorite phrase for saying not quite happening yet. Christ 2137 01:56:50.520 --> 01:56:53.520 Christiana is uce is an option for Wolves, nothing more 2138 01:56:53.560 --> 01:56:56.199 at this stage. The attacking midfielder is appreciated. Wolves have 2139 01:56:56.239 --> 01:56:59.560 other priority positions first focused on between now and the 2140 01:56:59.640 --> 01:57:02.640 end of the window. Leads have opened talks with Noah 2141 01:57:02.680 --> 01:57:07.079 okafor last week discussions continuing over the weekend, keen to 2142 01:57:07.079 --> 01:57:09.359 add another attacker before the window shuts. Nothing agreed with 2143 01:57:09.399 --> 01:57:13.920 Melon yet, talks expected to continue. Leads have made progress 2144 01:57:14.199 --> 01:57:16.640 and there is optimism that a deal can be completed 2145 01:57:16.680 --> 01:57:20.880 this week. Also on the board, more Unben Doak, who 2146 01:57:20.960 --> 01:57:22.720 looks like he's going to be joining Born With for 2147 01:57:22.760 --> 01:57:26.239 a twenty five million pound package. Liverpool have a buyback 2148 01:57:26.920 --> 01:57:29.600 and as a rule, according to Jacobs, these tend to 2149 01:57:29.640 --> 01:57:33.479 be agreed at least double the transfer fee. Buyback includes 2150 01:57:33.520 --> 01:57:36.960 because Liverpool think Dok has elite potential and regular first 2151 01:57:36.960 --> 01:57:40.159 team starts could see them return to him in the future. 2152 01:57:40.560 --> 01:57:43.920 Born With beatoff competition from Porto. Everton also showed interest 2153 01:57:44.039 --> 01:57:46.960 no offer. Liverpool would have had no issues selling dough 2154 01:57:47.039 --> 01:57:50.119 to Everton at all. Jaden Sanchos decided not to accept 2155 01:57:50.239 --> 01:57:52.479 Roma's offer as he continues to search for a new club. 2156 01:57:52.720 --> 01:57:55.479 Twenty million pound bid made to Manchester United. Sancho is 2157 01:57:55.520 --> 01:57:59.560 convinced other options will materialize before the windows shuts in 2158 01:57:59.680 --> 01:58:04.159 thirty teen days. Nottingham Forrest has agreed to Arnold Klimawendo 2159 01:58:04.600 --> 01:58:08.159 joining from Ren five years at twenty six million, and 2160 01:58:08.439 --> 01:58:11.399 we do have the photo of a klum a window 2161 01:58:11.439 --> 01:58:15.159 looking straight into the lens and the table, not looking 2162 01:58:15.199 --> 01:58:17.640 at the paper, not signing the paper, not nothing going on, 2163 01:58:17.840 --> 01:58:19.720 and literally I think the piece of paper is straight, 2164 01:58:20.199 --> 01:58:22.560 so literally straight north and south klum a window. 2165 01:58:22.640 --> 01:58:25.319 His picture is like this, So. 2166 01:58:25.239 --> 01:58:28.199 He's trying to sign a piece of paper that depends 2167 01:58:28.239 --> 01:58:30.920 not touching and probably needs to be tilted. So klum 2168 01:58:30.960 --> 01:58:34.560 a window can sign it and keep an eye and 2169 01:58:34.640 --> 01:58:36.880 keep an eye on that. Jed Spent signed a new 2170 01:58:36.880 --> 01:58:39.880 long term contract with Spurs an excellent forum following his 2171 01:58:39.920 --> 01:58:41.960 return a loan spell with Jeno one twenty three to 2172 01:58:41.960 --> 01:58:47.439 twenty four and we mentioned Visa this one we got 2173 01:58:47.479 --> 01:58:50.600 to keep an eye on. West Ham Vice chair Karen 2174 01:58:50.640 --> 01:58:53.760 Brady tells Talk Sports she expects Lucas Pocketat to stay 2175 01:58:53.760 --> 01:58:55.159 at the club. I think he wants to stay. We 2176 01:58:55.199 --> 01:58:57.279 definitely want him to say so. The thing is he'll 2177 01:58:57.319 --> 01:59:02.520 be staying. She also gave confidence to Graham Potter out 2178 01:59:02.520 --> 01:59:09.199 of the block after their results on the weekend. Potter 2179 01:59:09.199 --> 01:59:11.239 has already gotten the dreaded vot of confidence at west 2180 01:59:11.239 --> 01:59:14.359 Ham after only one match, Sunderland getting three on the board, 2181 01:59:14.359 --> 01:59:18.399 west Ham getting none. Morning Dale Charleston came from behind, 2182 01:59:18.439 --> 01:59:21.720 apparently to beat to the river Hounds at high Mark, 2183 01:59:22.079 --> 01:59:26.079 and Bob Lily is still probably still yelling. We don't 2184 01:59:26.079 --> 01:59:29.399 see if there's anything going on domestically. Remember that the 2185 01:59:29.479 --> 01:59:36.560 domestic window ends Thursday, So if anybody's going to be 2186 01:59:36.600 --> 01:59:38.840 making anybody's going to be making moves, you got to 2187 01:59:38.880 --> 01:59:45.039 do it between now and Thursday. Lexington SC finalizing a 2188 01:59:45.079 --> 01:59:48.399 deal to sign longtime MLS midfielder Latif Blessing. 2189 01:59:49.319 --> 01:59:49.760 How's that? 2190 01:59:50.439 --> 01:59:53.039 Blessing twenty eight as two hundred and fourteen regular season 2191 01:59:53.079 --> 01:59:56.119 appearances in Major League Soccer, spent last year with Houston 2192 01:59:56.199 --> 01:59:59.560 and Toronto. Minnesota United nearing a deal to sign Austrian 2193 01:59:59.600 --> 02:00:04.000 attacking midfielder Dominic Fits from Austria Vienna. Houte was first 2194 02:00:04.039 --> 02:00:07.039 with that thirteen and sixteen in just under three thousand 2195 02:00:07.119 --> 02:00:10.000 minutes last year, four plus five and six hundred minutes 2196 02:00:10.039 --> 02:00:13.000 this year. Don't know about the roster designation if he 2197 02:00:13.039 --> 02:00:15.239 goes to the Loons. Could be a TAM could be 2198 02:00:15.279 --> 02:00:18.640 a dp US Yan team. Midfielder Adrian Gill signed a 2199 02:00:18.640 --> 02:00:22.279 one year deal with Barsa b Munda di Bortiva first 2200 02:00:22.279 --> 02:00:25.439 to report that nineteen he's been with Bars's famed Academy 2201 02:00:25.439 --> 02:00:32.640 since twenty eighteen. Then Turgerman and Maccabi tel Aviv. Maccabi 2202 02:00:32.720 --> 02:00:35.199 tel Aviv not done, but close five and a half 2203 02:00:35.199 --> 02:00:38.560 million bids submitted, not officially accepted all parties. Hopeful Player 2204 02:00:38.600 --> 02:00:40.720 gave the green light and personal terms, and so that's 2205 02:00:40.760 --> 02:00:45.039 where we are with the updates on the things. So tomorrow, 2206 02:00:45.119 --> 02:00:48.239 once again, remember we are going to be going over 2207 02:00:48.960 --> 02:00:52.920 everything in WSL College Columbus in Toronto with KCD. Casey 2208 02:00:52.960 --> 02:00:55.199 White's going to join us early and we'll start our 2209 02:00:55.680 --> 02:00:59.239 breakdown of everything and we'll learn together, as Jared says, 2210 02:00:59.239 --> 02:01:01.439 what's learned together. So we're going to learn together tomorrow 2211 02:01:01.600 --> 02:01:04.960 if technology happens, and we'll have an interview on tape 2212 02:01:05.279 --> 02:01:09.520 and we'll start our coverage of MCOs and all the 2213 02:01:09.560 --> 02:01:11.840 news that's associated with all of that. Considering how it 2214 02:01:11.920 --> 02:01:15.279 land United has been directly affected by someone who operates 2215 02:01:15.720 --> 02:01:18.600 or operated an NC, I think he still does. 2216 02:01:18.680 --> 02:01:20.159 I think it's two or three clubs. 2217 02:01:20.560 --> 02:01:24.039 But with Landy United's involvement in MCOs, we thought it 2218 02:01:24.119 --> 02:01:25.560 might be important just to kind of take a deep 2219 02:01:25.600 --> 02:01:29.640 dive and understand the inner goings, the machinations, all of 2220 02:01:29.640 --> 02:01:31.479 the weaving, all the things to make sure that we 2221 02:01:31.600 --> 02:01:36.239 all know what is coming when it comes to American 2222 02:01:36.319 --> 02:01:42.520 clubs interacting with multi club ownerships around the world. So 2223 02:01:42.560 --> 02:01:45.199 we start that tomorrow, of technology permitting, and that'll be 2224 02:01:45.199 --> 02:01:47.800 an hour number two. Thanks to Bardez always, Thanks to 2225 02:01:47.800 --> 02:01:50.520 Abe as always, Thanks to y'all as always for being 2226 02:01:50.560 --> 02:01:53.560 a part of everything, and did not lose my ring. 2227 02:01:53.840 --> 02:01:56.840 But apparently I am the clumsiest person on the planet 2228 02:01:56.840 --> 02:01:59.960 because I don't know how to operate a disposable razor 2229 02:02:00.279 --> 02:02:03.800 like everybody else does. So that's another round for another 2230 02:02:03.840 --> 02:02:06.079 reaction Monday.
