Speaker 1: Just dropped in the morning show here on the SDH network.
Speaker 1: John here, are you there, and thanks for dropping by.
Speaker 1: And we know over the next twenty six hours, at
Speaker 1: least from a broadcast perspective, it might be a little challenging,
Speaker 1: and so today it literally will be as best as
Speaker 1: we can and hopefully we can get through the show
Speaker 1: this morning without getting any kind of power knocked off
Speaker 1: or anything like that. Tomorrow, if we have power, will
Speaker 1: be on the air at nine oh five Eastern time.
Speaker 1: That's the best way that I can describe it. And
Speaker 1: I know that a lot of you are going to
Speaker 1: be fighting the same battles that we are, and obviously
Speaker 1: just we want you to be as safe as humanly possible,
Speaker 1: and we you know, just kind of keep us posted
Speaker 1: on what's going on. And you're part of the world
Speaker 1: and we will keep all of it, all of everybody
Speaker 1: posted at what's going on with Helene, because she's going
Speaker 1: to be nasty. She's already been nasty, and like traditionally,
Speaker 1: as you well know. For those of you that have
Speaker 1: been a part of the network for a while, Morning
Speaker 1: Alex that most of my time because of live shots
Speaker 1: and you know, network things and folks doing games, and
Speaker 1: Jason doing games, and Jarrett Nick and Maddie doing games
Speaker 1: all around the southeast. I've got one eye to the
Speaker 1: weather channel and I've got really two eyes to the weather.
Speaker 1: Channe and doing a show this morning. So off to
Speaker 1: my left traditionally is the Big fifty five and it
Speaker 1: is doing its thing. And so right now, obviously we're
Speaker 1: keeping an eye out with everything in southwest Georgia for starters,
Speaker 1: but obviously the entire southeast with Helen. So just keep
Speaker 1: us posting on how you're doing, let us know what's
Speaker 1: going on. And so today should be fairly normal with
Speaker 1: Power Hour being in our number two. It'll be Nino
Speaker 1: and Nico in our number two, getting you ready for
Speaker 1: what happened last night in Suit Americana, Lilberta Doris. We'll
Speaker 1: go over what's going on in Portugal and in South America,
Speaker 1: and then Nico comes on at ten thirty, last half hour,
Speaker 1: we'll have our handoff. I don't know what the question
Speaker 1: is going to be. Traditionally, I'm just like, all right,
Speaker 1: what's the question Nino for Nico? And then they go
Speaker 1: What I may do is I may just ask Nico
Speaker 1: about what he thinks about Suit American and Alberta Doris
Speaker 1: and then they can have their coming together and then
Speaker 1: we go the other way. So that's the show today.
Speaker 1: News of the Morning playoffs from last night Championships decided
Speaker 1: last night will go over all of that. We've got
Speaker 1: News of the Morning to get you through and it
Speaker 1: is kind of a Newsy Thursday, by the way, especially
Speaker 1: with news overseas to kind of get us into what's
Speaker 1: going on. And now our number two is the Power
Speaker 1: Hour with Nino and Nico tomorrow. Like I said, if
Speaker 1: we have power, we're doing a show and we'll get
Speaker 1: you ready for the weekend. We can whip around pat
Speaker 1: and pending trademark commingsoner hopefully rather than later. If I'm
Speaker 1: not mistaken. Our mogul and training Michael Parkhurst is going
Speaker 1: to be getting a visit from the higher ups if
Speaker 1: he's going to Burn for the weekend. Rhode Island FC
Speaker 1: is going to be getting a visit from the higher
Speaker 1: ups and the hierarchy of USL Championships so they can
Speaker 1: show off how the stadium is being constructed and what's
Speaker 1: going on at burn Stadium, all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: Is they're fighting after a playoff spot if we get
Speaker 1: our friends from beyond goals, that's at nine point thirty
Speaker 1: ten o'clock, wee can whip Brown weekend. Wep bron might
Speaker 1: be earlier. The other element in all of this is
Speaker 1: that Atlanta United's got a game against Red Bulls this weekend,
Speaker 1: and so sorry Philly, Sorry, I bet I'm a weekend
Speaker 1: behind myself, Philly. So teams got to get out of town.
Speaker 1: Orlando City b you know Orlando. You got to keep
Speaker 1: an eye on what's going on with Orlando. You got
Speaker 1: to keep an eye with going on with Messian friends.
Speaker 1: You got to keep an eye with what's going on
Speaker 1: with Atlanta United. Landy United's trying to get to Philly.
Speaker 1: The twos are trying to get to Philly. They have
Speaker 1: the games on Saturday and Sunday. Saturday and Sunday themselves
Speaker 1: should be okay from a weather perspective, but traditionally you
Speaker 1: want to try to get out of town a day
Speaker 1: ahead of time. And you're looking at so we'll see
Speaker 1: what happens morning, Pars, and you're continued early support of
Speaker 1: your friends at Aston Villa and your boy and me Martinez.
Speaker 1: So that's where that's the broadcast plan for today and tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Like I said, today should be fairly normal. By the way,
Speaker 1: the back porch is already flooded. We live in We
Speaker 1: live in a hillside, and so of course we're at
Speaker 1: the bottom of the hill. And folks to our left
Speaker 1: and our right, two to our left, to to our right,
Speaker 1: we're all at the bottom of a hill. So water's
Speaker 1: coming downhill. And so our back porch is already flooded.
Speaker 1: Back porch, back patio, whatever it is, enclosed and closed
Speaker 1: encampment at the back of the house, it's already flooded.
Speaker 1: And I asked the boss, I said, should I go
Speaker 1: ahead and sweep the water out if I can? And
Speaker 1: she's like, well, I don't know, because it's all going
Speaker 1: to come back anyway, So we'll see what happens there
Speaker 1: with our back porch. Tried to batten down some hatches
Speaker 1: last night, pulled some things off of the front, front
Speaker 1: patio and the back patio, and tilted some tables over,
Speaker 1: brought in a bunch of candle stuff that's floating around
Speaker 1: traditionally that's just hanging on ledges and things. Brought that inside,
Speaker 1: and so that's where our preparations have been anticipating what
Speaker 1: it's going to be like overnight, tonight, and tomorrow. So
Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see how well we have prepared and
Speaker 1: hopefully that everyone here that's a part of our family
Speaker 1: here at SDH that you guys get through it as
Speaker 1: unscathed as possible going forward. By the way, did you
Speaker 1: know did you know? Did you know? Did you know?
Speaker 2: Hey?
Speaker 1: Did you know? We're up for an award? We are?
Speaker 1: I don't know if you knew this, And it literally
Speaker 1: is the one of these things is not like the
Speaker 1: other situation, the Football Content Awards, And like I said,
Speaker 1: I'm going to be bordering obnoxious about this until October eleventh,
Speaker 1: I think, because I think that's the Friday. But Football
Speaker 1: Content Awards, we are up for Broadcaster Rights Holder. We
Speaker 1: are up for those. And get this, it's just the
Speaker 1: wild It literally is just the wildest thing that we
Speaker 1: are up against. All of these folks that are who

Speaker 1: power powers that are out there, and it's all of
Speaker 1: them and us for Broadcast rights Holder. But fifty percent
Speaker 1: of the vote is the audience part, the ballot box stuffing.

Speaker 1: Broadcast Rights Prime, BBC, Colossal Network, Dezone, ESPNFC, ITV, Sky
Speaker 1: Talk Sports, T and T Sports which used to be
Speaker 1: BT Sports overseas, and something called the SDH Network. Those ten,
Speaker 1: those nine and US each playing a pivotal role in
Speaker 1: delivering football content to millions of fans across the globe.
Speaker 1: One of the finalists, Holy crap. So yeah, that broke
Speaker 1: Monday afternoon, and so the voting coefficient for fandom fifty
Speaker 1: percent of the vote. Get out your sling shots and
Speaker 1: your stones, folks. So go to Footballcontentawards dot Com backslash voting,
Speaker 1: and they had a very humbling ride up of US too,
Speaker 1: by the way. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, the SDH network
Speaker 1: offers a unique mix of football content, including like broadcast
Speaker 1: talk shows and in depth interviews, specializing in all levels
Speaker 1: of the sport, from professional to high school. SDH has
Speaker 1: expanded its own with the launch of SDH two This
Speaker 1: is True, a new platform for live event distribution. The
Speaker 1: network's commitment to covering all aspects of football, combined with
Speaker 1: its growing audience, makes it a standout content provider in
Speaker 1: the US market. That's damn humbling. Uh, but yeah, best
Speaker 1: media organization, broadcaster rights holder, that's us. We are one
Speaker 1: of the ten and you know, and seriously, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have to answer back with these folks, but yeah, I
Speaker 1: love the fact that they're so are you going to
Speaker 1: the meta meeting before the day of the awards before
Speaker 1: we go to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium? And I get to
Speaker 1: email the guy back and sit there and say, well,
Speaker 1: we're still trying to finalize our travel plans, which is true.
Speaker 1: I'm hoping that after the popular vote is in that
Speaker 1: they will announce like finalist finalists and then if we,
Speaker 1: through the grace of whomever end up as a finalist
Speaker 1: finalists then probably odds are that the Boston and I
Speaker 1: are leaving and heading over to be there for the awards.
Speaker 1: We'll do the show from London all week long except
Speaker 1: for Friday morning, so I can come back and be
Speaker 1: here for football Fridays for high school football. The plan
Speaker 1: is leave after the week before, leave that Saturday morning
Speaker 1: after the game, I think it's the sixteenth, then be
Speaker 1: in London all week, then be there for the awards
Speaker 1: on Thursday night. That's literally the week before Thanksgiving, Thursday
Speaker 1: before Thanksgiving. Then fly back Friday morning or take a
Speaker 1: Friday morning flight from London, come back, gain six hours,
Speaker 1: six hour or eight hour flight or whatever, and I
Speaker 1: should be okay getting to the venue for the broadcast,
Speaker 1: just to make an appearance, and then probably collapse, and
Speaker 1: you know, we'll see what happens. But that's my incredibly
Speaker 1: it's my incredibly selfish pie in the sky plan. If
Speaker 1: we don't end up being a finalist, finalist, but spread
Speaker 1: the word football content, Footballcontent Awards dot com backslash voting
Speaker 1: Media Rights Holder Organization Best media Organization, Holy crap, so
Speaker 1: very very humbling across the board. Uh PARS voted yesterday.
Speaker 1: So there and so that's uh, that's what you're staring at.
Speaker 1: So thank you, Parr. Stuff the ballot box as best.
Speaker 1: You can go to a different IP address, maybe something
Speaker 1: at work or something, and have others vote. I gotta
Speaker 1: put I have to post this in the discord. By
Speaker 1: the way, I've got to remember to do that. Uh So,
Speaker 1: Football Content Awards dot Com backslash voting and you can
Speaker 1: vote for USDH as your best organization discussing what's going
Speaker 1: on with travel? Michael's like three point one one inches, now, Michael,
Speaker 1: was that in your backyard yesterday? Because Michael's a three
Speaker 1: iron from office HD? Michael, Michael, Well, I mean, is
Speaker 1: he a three iron? Might be a little less, might
Speaker 1: be more like a five on a good day. Michael
Speaker 1: is probably a five iron on a good day from
Speaker 1: office HD. So is that in your backyard? Michael? The
Speaker 1: three point one one inches? Interesting? Yeah, we'll be interesting
Speaker 1: to see what Helene dumps on us because she keeps
Speaker 1: sliding and she keeps moving to the west. So if
Speaker 1: we're on the eastern side. Okay, So Michael got three
Speaker 1: point one one inches at the Casa DA Michael and
Speaker 1: Cherry So, uh so, three point one one inches to
Speaker 1: Michael here in office HD Country. So, uh, that's what
Speaker 1: we got yesterday and it all ended up on our
Speaker 1: back porch patio, and so looking to see what else
Speaker 1: happens today is the day gets on, it's supposed to
Speaker 1: get nastier. But yeah, we will have a show. We
Speaker 1: will have a show if we have power tomorrow. We
Speaker 1: just hoping that everybody is safe and let us know
Speaker 1: how things are going with all of you. Uh and Pars,
Speaker 1: You're not wrong. They might take Uncle Arthur's jet to
Speaker 1: leave when they want, might end up driving. I don't know.
Speaker 1: But that's the other thing. You've got all these teams
Speaker 1: with MLS, matches, with dealing with Helene here in the southeast,
Speaker 1: MESSI and Friends, and Orlando City, ocb it, Landy United
Speaker 1: and Landy United too, all the things, all of these
Speaker 1: travel elements that you've got to kind of keep an
Speaker 1: eye on. And so it's Miami and Charlotte, and so
Speaker 1: how does that get handled? I mean, you might wait
Speaker 1: until you might wait until tomorrow if you're Charlotte, if
Speaker 1: you're going down to the Erector set. So I mean,
Speaker 1: if tomorrow works and you kind of swing way wide
Speaker 1: and you work your way down Helene's coming one way
Speaker 1: you go around or the other. Nashville's on the road
Speaker 1: in New England, So I think they can escape what's
Speaker 1: going on Atlanta ahead into Philly. That's the big that's
Speaker 1: the big one, at least here in the footprint. How
Speaker 1: are they getting out of town? And then everything else
Speaker 1: seems to be fairly safe. But yeah, we'll catch up
Speaker 1: with We'll catch up with our buddy Nico Moreno in
Speaker 1: hour number two and kind of go review preview as
Speaker 1: to what's going on involving everything in Major League Soccer.
Speaker 1: Gets you ready, play a little liffhanger and spot it
Speaker 1: all out for you and sit there and go, okay,
Speaker 1: So here's the weekend, and it gives you, It gives
Speaker 1: you an early preview of what's going on in and
Speaker 1: around the league. And like I said, our buddy, you know,
Speaker 1: taught us from Goal TV, is going to be joining
Speaker 1: us at ten o'clock. He has already sent his rundown
Speaker 1: and is not really a surprise that the rundown is
Speaker 1: as big as it is. Like I said, robertadoris suit Americana.
Speaker 1: And what else did Nino have on his mind? He says,
Speaker 1: is Victor Jokerish the best striker in the world right
Speaker 1: now he has the numbers to back it up. The
Speaker 1: beautiful story of the eighty three year old sporting fans
Speaker 1: saved from a fire, and historical championship controversy. Oh we
Speaker 1: have controversy. I feel like I need Andre Simone Prince
Speaker 1: between the two Pruvian giants, Universitario and Alian Zelima. So
Speaker 1: so when Nina joins us at ten, it's going to
Speaker 1: be a stacked half hour. But no, there we go
Speaker 1: Football Content Awards dot Com backslash voting and you can
Speaker 1: vote for anything and everything us. Please stuff the ballot box.
Speaker 1: Like I said, get out your sling shot and your
Speaker 1: stone people. Time to help us out there. I guess

Speaker 1: Very very cool stuff from our friends at Kickoff Coffee
Speaker 1: and Kickoff Coffeeco dot com. Okay, So there were a
Speaker 1: couple of things that were decided last night and it
Speaker 1: did have its a fair amount of chaos. Columbus and
Speaker 1: Clubomedica were at the death Star last night, Campione's Cup
Speaker 1: Final and it goes to Clubomedica who on five to
Speaker 1: four in PKS, so Columbus Crew getting right to the edge.
Speaker 1: A goal by Victor Davolo in the sixty eighth minute
Speaker 1: gave Club America the early the first lead of the match,
Speaker 1: not early a sixty eight minute, so about twenty to go,
Speaker 1: and then multi Amensen was thirteen to go ties it
Speaker 1: at one. They go to PK's five to four year
Speaker 1: final and that was how it ended up. So Club
Speaker 1: America get the twenty twenty four Companiones Cup win over
Speaker 1: Crewe and so once again Crewe shows very very well
Speaker 1: for Major League Soccer and what we've been able to
Speaker 1: have in these tournaments. But Campionies Cup goes to Clubamdica
Speaker 1: last night. That was the first championship on the board.
Speaker 1: Then the can champ happened last night and it was
Speaker 1: a BC place and it was one of the smaller
Speaker 1: crowds sadly that had been going that has been going
Speaker 1: on in recent tournaments. Goliss after ninety minutes they would
Speaker 1: go to PK's and Vancouver would win it in PK's
Speaker 1: four to two. Here is your deciding moment brought to
Speaker 1: us by our friends at one Soccer and it sounds
Speaker 1: like it's our buddy friend of the network. Gareth Wheeler
Speaker 1: on the call. Here your deciding moment in PK's to
Speaker 1: give Vancouver white Caps the championships.
Speaker 3: And his Crestinadian Championship can win the Boyzers Cup for
Speaker 3: the Vancouver White Cups vxcus. It's day Vancouver White Cups
Speaker 3: successfully enough.
Speaker 4: The Canadian Championship win.
Speaker 3: The second time in three seasons, said the Vancouver White
Speaker 3: Cups to CHINAFC penalties.
Speaker 1: And Jimmy Brennan.
Speaker 3: Then once again the lifting the Lawyers hs Cup days.
Speaker 4: It sponsors.
Speaker 1: There you go and beyorn inga Utvic was the individual
Speaker 1: that got the final kick in the can Champs for
Speaker 1: any Sartini and the white Caps to get it over
Speaker 1: the over the bar, and you if you watched it,
Speaker 1: or if you found a way to watch the highlights,
Speaker 1: you saw that jorning Utvic actually was wearing the soft
Speaker 1: helmet to help out with uh any kind of contact
Speaker 1: with concussions or any any integration with concussions, contact had
Speaker 1: to head anything like that. So uh, jonning Utvic got
Speaker 1: the the final that got the clincher last night for
Speaker 1: the Can champ and Jarrett joins us now Jared just
Speaker 1: going over what happened yesterday where we had Campione's Cup
Speaker 1: decided and it was Clubamerica at the death star beating
Speaker 1: Columbus Crew and Vanny Sartiniaz, who we maintained must be
Speaker 1: protected at all costs getting the Can Champ at home
Speaker 1: over Toronto FC. So we had two champions determined yesterday
Speaker 1: and we had a third late night. I don't know
Speaker 1: if it was Open Cup after dark, but it was
Speaker 1: certainly going for a while. I did not stay up
Speaker 1: late later and late for Open Cup. I know that.
Speaker 1: Have you officially made it back home?
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, we made it back home, made it back
Speaker 5: home late last night. It was like ten hours to
Speaker 5: get out of Florida around whatever the hell is coming,
Speaker 5: only to arrive to another weather system in Atlanta.
Speaker 2: That was fun.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I didn't. I tried to stay up. I got
Speaker 5: through like forty five minutes of LA and Kansas City. Yeah,
Speaker 5: I was a little bit and like VAM was losing his.
Speaker 2: Mind and I'm happy for Bam.
Speaker 5: Part of me was tickled at the idea though of
Speaker 5: l a f C continuing to lose in finals. But hey,
Speaker 5: you know what the secret is, get l a f
Speaker 5: C into extra time and they'll take care of business. Columbus, Look,
Speaker 5: beating Club America in the Capes Cup isn't for everyone.
Speaker 2: It's okay, this is a safe place for your judgments, but.
Speaker 5: It's not for everybody. Sometimes you need a Jeff Lorenowitz moment.
Speaker 5: It didn't have one. The most fun moment was uh
Speaker 5: kuco hitting it outside of the foot Tevallo.
Speaker 2: That was just beautiful. That led nothing.
Speaker 1: It was still beautiful though it was beautiful.
Speaker 5: Uh it was saved, which is the kind of thing
Speaker 5: that like, here's the disconnect for me, because if that
Speaker 5: gets posted here, all I see is social media accounts
Speaker 5: losing their ship about well, it didn't result anything, whereas
Speaker 5: Kuco can do it. Everybody's falling over themselves like it's
Speaker 5: mister magoo and.
Speaker 2: You should fall over it.
Speaker 5: But but but they are correct and the same thing
Speaker 5: should be done here. Look, if we post somebody as
Speaker 5: an amazing pass, let's pay off.
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's not gonna pay off. Sometimes you can get
Speaker 2: sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. Sometimes you get beat.
Speaker 5: Yes, and uh, but also you got beat. They go
Speaker 5: keep her in the moment. Then we had the entire
Speaker 5: conversation once again about goalkeepers coming off the line early
Speaker 5: ball hits a crossbar in the Penlties. I get you're
Speaker 5: trying everything you can to angle this towards MLS digital people.
Speaker 2: Cross bar.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 5: Also, if we're going to keep planting this further and
Speaker 5: further towards the guys taking the kick. Yeah, it was
Speaker 5: a lot of fun. Columbus is just fun once again.
Speaker 5: I am waiting for someone from Europe to come a
Speaker 5: colin Ah for for well, for Nanzi.
Speaker 2: I don't know when that happens. I don't know if
Speaker 2: he takes it.
Speaker 5: I don't know Nanzi's mental you know where he is
Speaker 5: mentally and emotional? Like, is he the kind of guy
Speaker 5: who's like, you know what, I got a great thing
Speaker 5: here in Columbus and I'm just gonna like be the
Speaker 5: biggest fish in this particular sea.
Speaker 2: Or does he want more?
Speaker 5: Someone's gonna throw someone's gonna throw few money at him eventually,
Speaker 5: whether he takes it or not.
Speaker 2: There isn't a time with a different conversation.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and guards thinking if the goalkeeper doesn't affec the
Speaker 5: result of a pKa where off their line, the result
Speaker 5: still stands.
Speaker 2: I still have my beef.
Speaker 5: With the way because we saw, we saw this happen,
Speaker 5: not this exact thing. We saw what imubscribe happened in
Speaker 5: a last next Pro game where a goalkeep where a
Speaker 5: taker runs up, hesitates super hard, it comes to a stop.
Speaker 5: Go Hibbert comes off his line anticipating the kick. The
Speaker 5: guy hesitates. Hibbert comes like has taken that step where
Speaker 5: he had tied it in a way that had the
Speaker 5: guy actually kicked it, Hibbert's foot would have still been
Speaker 5: on the line and he was using that foot to drive.
Speaker 5: But because he hesitates, Hibbert comes off the line of
Speaker 5: step early, gets the save, but it's called back because
Speaker 5: he was technically off the line.
Speaker 2: And I don't know.
Speaker 5: How we expect goalkeepers to make saves in those situations
Speaker 5: for those rules. And if we're gonna say, now, if
Speaker 5: you know Web and Doral and everybody, you're gonna or
Speaker 5: I think we leave the charge. I think the pointed
Speaker 5: out the rule book apologies was part of it. He
Speaker 5: was thinks to almost part of it as well. But like,
Speaker 5: if we're gonna lead the charge of wow, he was
Speaker 5: off as long when he hit the when he hit
Speaker 5: the crossbars, so you get to take it again, how
Speaker 5: hard are you gonna slant this in the favor of
Speaker 5: the taker versus the guy saving the penalty because it
Speaker 5: feels like we're pushing this the same way we've pushed
Speaker 5: past interference and you know, illegal contact in American football,
Speaker 5: where we've created such an offensive advantage in the game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, at what point do you just not have keepers
Speaker 2: in there?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Are you gonna like also say the keeper has to
Speaker 5: keep both feet on the line until there's contact. The
Speaker 5: keeper has to stand perfectly still, and he can't make
Speaker 5: any loud noises. He has to like whisper like he's
Speaker 5: Elmer Fudd in the woods.
Speaker 1: Or it's like the the the uh, the movie with
Speaker 1: what's her face? The wife of John Krasinski. A quiet place.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, you always lunch Emily Blunt. Thank you.
Speaker 1: You've got to you've got to turn being between the
Speaker 1: sticks into a quiet place, and you can't do anything
Speaker 1: to exacerbate it, or you take to keep her out entirely,
Speaker 1: and you just expose the four corners like you do
Speaker 1: when you're trying to have somebody win a new car,
Speaker 1: Like I mean the hole there, And you know, why.
Speaker 5: Don't we just settle all the games by goalie wars.
Speaker 5: There you go, I like that settle by goalie wars.
Speaker 5: But yeah, I mean, if we're gonna say that he
Speaker 5: came off this line early and the guy hit the crossbar,
Speaker 5: maybe he just hit the crossbara. Sometimes you just hit
Speaker 5: the crossbar like the guy let the other direction.
Speaker 2: Anyway, mm hmm.
Speaker 1: That is true.
Speaker 5: But yeah, it had been cool to see MLS winner
Speaker 5: at the trophy. Yeah, that was fun game anyway. Yes,
Speaker 5: but you don't you don't have to like keep bending,
Speaker 5: like not bending, but changing the rules further and further
Speaker 5: and further altering. Yeah, yeah, to favor everything towards the
Speaker 5: guy at the spot.
Speaker 2: Yeah, are absolutely not fair to go keepers it all
Speaker 2: especially in PK shootouts.
Speaker 5: Keepers to break all the school Yes, so you want
Speaker 5: to add an entirely new rule. MLS media folks like
Speaker 5: y'all want to add an entire new rule to make
Speaker 5: it even more so. Honestly, we're to the point now
Speaker 5: if a goalkeeper makes a save in a shootout, he
Speaker 5: should get to get up and just basically do a
Speaker 5: full deepo Martinez. He should get to like air house
Speaker 5: whatever he wants. If he wants some DX cross shop you,
Speaker 5: he should be able to. Someone should walk up if
Speaker 5: he makes a save on you, someone should walk up
Speaker 5: behind you with a little mini basketball rim and the
Speaker 5: goalkeeper runs up and dunks a nerve basketball on your head.
Speaker 5: Because unless, like, unless they have gone full Jean Gray
Speaker 5: or Professor Charles Xavier, it's so damn hard for anyone
Speaker 5: to make.
Speaker 2: A save in these anymore.
Speaker 5: You gotta be like you gotta be in someone's skull
Speaker 5: him Elia who is one hundred and eight years old
Speaker 5: in soccer years, correct.
Speaker 2: Or like and be like six foot forty five.
Speaker 1: Yes, that is absolutely true, because you know, when you're
Speaker 1: six foot forty five that does absolutely help you out
Speaker 1: in these situations. Uh, Bart's going to join us tomorrow
Speaker 1: morning in the nine o'clock hour, by the way, Power
Speaker 1: Permitting to discuss all of these things and Bart because
Speaker 1: Bart dms me and he says, yes, there were a
Speaker 1: couple of roughing down here moments yesterday or last night
Speaker 1: to get into and I'm like, cool, bring it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So we're gonna do it tomorrow Power Permitting in the
Speaker 1: nine o'clock hour. So if any.
Speaker 2: Turnover chain for the goalkeepers, see.
Speaker 1: Now that a PK save chain, that's what we need.
Speaker 5: And it does refurther, it does further enforce the idea
Speaker 5: of if you're in a shootout, and this was like
Speaker 5: where I was like losing my faith in my own
Speaker 5: insanity in the Least Cup.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when it.
Speaker 5: Atlanta, like two of the three shootouts, Atlanta has been
Speaker 5: in Least Cup practice and has either made a save
Speaker 5: or Josh Con has made a save or a shot
Speaker 5: has been missed. In the way shootouts are done nowadays,
Speaker 5: if somebody makes a save, you gotta win.
Speaker 1: Absolutely.
Speaker 5: It's slanted so hard towards the taker. And I understand
Speaker 5: some teams don't practice peeks for whatever reason, just it's
Speaker 5: kind of like for me, like practice your free throws.
Speaker 2: I realize that there's no one blocking your free throw.
Speaker 5: But like, and it's kind of hard to replicate the
Speaker 5: tension of the moment, but like practice, you know, practice
Speaker 5: knowing where you're gonna go with the ball.
Speaker 2: When someone makes a save, you gotta win.
Speaker 5: Or if someone, you know it, puts one up into space,
Speaker 5: that might actually knock Michael Bradley's twenty eighteen CONCA Cap
Speaker 5: Champions Cup final penalty into a decaying orbit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we had that last night in the Botafogo Matchel
Speaker 1: Tucktanino about that now or two.
Speaker 5: That one didn't quite reach Michael Bradley's, which if mirror
Speaker 5: were still up there would have put mere in the
Speaker 5: ocean skylab.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my god. Yeah.
Speaker 5: And so Claire, missus Pancalps goalkeeper, said, yeah, that's a
Speaker 5: psychological win, because all good goalkeepers are actually psychological terrorists
Speaker 5: and should be treated as such.
Speaker 2: And I mean that in the most complementary fashion I.
Speaker 5: Possibly can, absolutely, so it doesn't matter if I if
Speaker 5: I went the wrong. Same role applies to like in
Speaker 5: the in football, where quarterback throws a fade, he underthrows it.
Speaker 2: The quarnerback has beat.
Speaker 5: By five yards, but he's underthrown it so much the
Speaker 5: corner can knock it down. He's absolutely standing up and
Speaker 5: declaring a no fly zone.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, you find.
Speaker 5: Out the wrong way in a penalty and you shake
Speaker 5: it in to h and the hitting little tivvy upside
Speaker 5: the head. Hey, I'm gonna let you know about it,
Speaker 5: because guess what, I don't care how that big X
Speaker 5: appeared on the box of.
Speaker 2: Five as an X there. They don't ask cal they
Speaker 2: ask how many exactly.
Speaker 1: And so yeah, next time Jess is on, we've got
Speaker 1: to ask her about this kind of stuff, about how
Speaker 1: she approached PK's and how she counsels her her young
Speaker 1: charges about pks. And we also have to ask about Redding.
Speaker 1: They're back into their ish ton of problems because another
Speaker 1: ownership thought has fallen through. And but yeah, next time
Speaker 1: Jess is on it, we need to ask her about
Speaker 1: all these GK things about penalty kicks and saves and
Speaker 1: things like that mentality for keepers. I want to get
Speaker 1: into that with Jess next time she's on. But but yeah,
Speaker 1: Bartile beyond nine o'clock hour, and we'll just go ahead
Speaker 1: and bat lead off with him. We'll go until nine
Speaker 1: thirty with bart so we'll do reughing down here from
Speaker 1: lead off to nine point thirty if our friends from
Speaker 1: beyond goals entering can join us, and then if they
Speaker 1: are traversing the planet or are stuck and without power,
Speaker 1: then we'll keep going. So Bart's gonna beat lead off
Speaker 1: tomorrow discussing roughing down here and all those kinds of things.
Speaker 1: But yes, if the if then to recap on the
Speaker 1: audio side, Bart is saying, if the if the keeper
Speaker 1: doesn't affect the result of the PK wing off their line,
Speaker 1: the result still stands. And a note on Patrick Shelty,
Speaker 1: by the way, For as much as folks prefer other
Speaker 1: young goalkeepers for the men's national team, Shelty has now
Speaker 1: played in four cup finals in two years. I would
Speaker 1: say that that would give him a bit of an
Speaker 1: inside track when it comes to exposure and experience in
Speaker 1: dealing with hostile, hostile crowds and teams from other leagues
Speaker 1: here hemispherically.
Speaker 5: So they've they've done such a good job in Columbus
Speaker 5: obviously across the board on a lot of things. But
Speaker 5: you went from Patrick Stefan, who's amazing shots, he's an
Speaker 5: amazing show.
Speaker 2: That's about where it begins that you're thinking.
Speaker 1: You're thinking when you said Patrick, Sorry, Patrick, ste Jesus Christ,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I can't sleep much.
Speaker 5: A lot of driving, a lot of a lot of
Speaker 5: not sleeping, a lot of like negotiating with a small, hostile.
Speaker 2: Seven year old terror.
Speaker 5: Zach Stefan is the great shot stopper and the great
Speaker 5: shots stopper, and that's about where it ends.
Speaker 2: For Zach Stefan.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I am asking him to do about as much
Speaker 5: with his feet as I'm asking myself to do with
Speaker 5: my feet, which.
Speaker 2: Is not really anything.
Speaker 5: But then you went to Eloy Room, who was really
Speaker 5: good for a while, and then you went to Chault
Speaker 5: like you had the plan laid out. They've done really
Speaker 5: well in that respect, man, And I think if you're Atlanta,
Speaker 5: you're you were. You were kind of side eyeing Jayden
Speaker 5: Hibbert in a similar vein of I don't know how
Speaker 5: quickly Jayden Hibbert gets there.
Speaker 2: I think Jaden and Hibbert made some absolute leaps this year.
Speaker 2: M hm. Also, you're what is Brad forty though Verses
Speaker 2: thirty nine.
Speaker 1: Oh, the old.
Speaker 5: Battle Ax goalkeeper was a Team of the week. You
Speaker 5: got some decisions to make, and he's got some decisions
Speaker 5: to make if he wants to go be a family man.
Speaker 1: Or wants Brad Brad's a man. He's forty.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but yeah, I think you're You're in a situation
Speaker 5: where like I don't know if it's a year or
Speaker 5: two from now, but I think Jadan Hibbert can be yeah,
Speaker 5: can be that that guy shoot rather than later. I
Speaker 5: was excited about his potential.
Speaker 2: I think he's shown that he is. But he's shown
Speaker 2: I think he's.
Speaker 5: Better than I expected it to be a year one
Speaker 5: as a pro. But you yeah, ever, you always want that.
Speaker 5: You thought you had that when you had uh Cinti
Speaker 5: Reys and and Justin Garcis, because everybody wants that succession
Speaker 5: line that Columbus has absolutely nailed.
Speaker 2: And I'm sure they have another one in the waiting
Speaker 2: in the wings. Find one.
Speaker 1: No, they've got Stosilapkis for a crew too. They absolutely did.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they got another one. They're fine. The chamber
Speaker 2: is reloaded.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because uh Stoslapkis, I think was a part of
Speaker 1: Goalie Wars this year. He's been one of the stout
Speaker 1: keepers for UH Crew Crew two this season. And if
Speaker 1: I had enough time to go chasing after my notes,
Speaker 1: I would MLS next pro let me see if, let
Speaker 1: me see if we have anything resembling statistics involving folks
Speaker 1: with the MLS.
Speaker 5: My favorite thing still is that yeah, Brads ropes h.
Speaker 5: Brad turns forty this month. I love sports because we
Speaker 5: can look at a guy and go, he's forty years old.
Speaker 2: He shouldn't even be anymore.
Speaker 5: How was he playing pasuzla out here kicking a ball
Speaker 5: around while his bones turned to dust? Whereas like the
Speaker 5: rest of us are like staring straight in the face
Speaker 5: of forty being like, you.
Speaker 2: Know what, I'm not that old.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Stoslopkiz seventeen matches this season, starting for Crew two,
Speaker 1: and it is a let me see, I hate these
Speaker 1: because his passing percentage, he's down all the way down
Speaker 1: at the bottom of the page. Passing percentage at eighty
Speaker 1: four and a half percent this year out of the
Speaker 1: blocks inside is eighteen and so Lopkiz has been I mean,
Speaker 1: Lopkiz has been the lead guy for Crew two this season.
Speaker 1: And Crew two right now in the Eastern Conference, they're
Speaker 1: fighting it. I mean right now they're six, but they're
Speaker 1: in that street fight for six twenty six matches played
Speaker 1: two to go forty two points, so they can make
Speaker 1: a they can make a run for something as high
Speaker 1: as three and there. But yeah, they're a part of
Speaker 1: that street fight in MLS Next Pro from five to
Speaker 1: ten that is separated by two points. Six teams two
Speaker 1: points to get in stay in.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know, I'm still salty and like it's you
Speaker 5: gotta Atlanta's gotta figure out the twos have got to
Speaker 5: figure out a way to hit out of the blocks
Speaker 5: the way.
Speaker 2: They get late the year.
Speaker 5: Yeah, because in the second year in a row where
Speaker 5: you started out, actually you did this last year too,
Speaker 5: I got I think it was like the second game
Speaker 5: you humbled somebody and you're like, oh, okay, you got
Speaker 5: you got something here, and then you just kind of
Speaker 5: wander through the dark through half the season. You you
Speaker 5: start to find yourself and get consistency in the late
Speaker 5: part of the season, but it isn't there long enough
Speaker 5: to your having to chase the low eyes and you
Speaker 5: gotta find a way to.
Speaker 2: Carry that through the whole season.
Speaker 5: Because we saw when it was working that it was
Speaker 5: really fun and when guys were consistent, it was really fun.
Speaker 2: It's just it's a it's a tricky thing to navigate
Speaker 2: them well.
Speaker 1: And the other point, and I'm sure that we will
Speaker 1: get into this uh with Steve in our last conversation
Speaker 1: with him as we get ready for the matchup against
Speaker 1: Union two on Sunday at this So that means that
Speaker 1: power permitting, it's going to be tomorrow with Steve uh.
Speaker 2: One of the weddings shifting east.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we make it punched right in the face.
Speaker 1: The team had two three week breaks.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I I know.
Speaker 5: I would like to punch people in the nose of
Speaker 5: the mlsxpro over this metaphorically speaking literally, not trying to
Speaker 5: get charges. I yeah, you handed a team two three
Speaker 5: week breaks, You like restructured their entire schedule to hand
Speaker 5: them three week breaks, and then in turn handed them
Speaker 5: a bunch of congestion instead of a normal easy, like
Speaker 5: hey play once a week schedule. I just have no
Speaker 5: clue what the hell the schedule makers were doing. You
Speaker 5: take enough drugs, though, and you stay in the mirror,
Speaker 5: maybe you turn into an elephant.
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Jesus Christ, what the hell were you thinking?
Speaker 1: Well, and that's the that's the larger point is what
Speaker 1: the hell were you thinking? And you know, you end
Speaker 1: up with a team when they were in rhythm that
Speaker 1: was doing very very well, I mean their.
Speaker 5: Results and if and if it hinges on, Oh we
Speaker 5: had to change the schedule because so and so was
Speaker 5: an Open Cup. Then just go back to the way
Speaker 5: you did Open Cup before and put the MLS teams
Speaker 5: in there.
Speaker 4: Yes, I know there's.
Speaker 5: Issues with other leagues not doing enough to drop up
Speaker 5: Open Cup Financially, it's a little tricky for them, and
Speaker 5: I know there's layers to this, But if you're going
Speaker 5: to have those questions and then all this next pro
Speaker 5: teams and Open Cup, oh we had to change the
Speaker 5: schedule around, then figure out a way to put the
Speaker 5: teams in it in the first place. That you're not
Speaker 5: building a schedule that you're going to have to deconstruct
Speaker 5: and screw with everybody's calendars for Because I hate to
Speaker 5: break it to y'all, did you know it's not cheap
Speaker 5: to fly and drive everywhere? We don't have public transit.
Speaker 5: Thanks again, Henry Ford, and find your grave and piss
Speaker 5: on it later. We don't have good public transit around
Speaker 5: this country. This is in England. I can't hop on
Speaker 5: the five to zero four train and get up to Charlotte.
Speaker 5: I don't have I don't have a mac train that
Speaker 5: can take me somewhere. We have to load up the bus,
Speaker 5: get down to the airport, meet all the people who
Speaker 5: are going to heaven or hell and catching and connecting
Speaker 5: flight there from purgatory in the first place, and then
Speaker 5: fly somewhere to play a game.
Speaker 1: Well, just ask what was it William hurt in the
Speaker 1: in the movie in the Crap in the movie in
Speaker 1: the nineties where he said, when you die, you connect,
Speaker 1: you connect planes in Atlanta. That's literally how it's all structured.
Speaker 1: And I mean it's it is.
Speaker 5: I was always told whether you when you die, whether
Speaker 5: you go to heaven or hell, you got to keep
Speaker 5: the flat out of Atlanta.
Speaker 2: And thank you.
Speaker 5: Alex for sharing this from Charlie Bold Kat Comorrow on
Speaker 5: USOC legacy. Don Garber was here. I saw him, he
Speaker 5: was on the podium. He gave me a medal. So
Speaker 5: just get him in here and make sure they don't
Speaker 5: take mls away from this. This is amazing. You know,
Speaker 5: this is American soccer right here. Don't take away our history. Yes,
Speaker 5: and I get man like, Look, there's like there's layers
Speaker 5: to this conversation, because what you have is like you
Speaker 5: as as far as MLS is concerned, like you don't
Speaker 5: want to be the only ones propping this.
Speaker 2: Thing up financially, right, Like you need.
Speaker 5: Help from US Soccer to actually support this tournament. Lower
Speaker 5: level leagues can only do so much in terms of
Speaker 5: throwing money into it because they only have so much
Speaker 5: money to throw in to it, especially when you get
Speaker 5: into USL teams, just because USL is insanely expensive to be.
Speaker 2: A part of.
Speaker 5: First of all, the laundry list of teams longer than
Speaker 5: my leg they have tried to go.
Speaker 2: To USL and just crashed on because it's.
Speaker 5: Expensive, it's hard. There's financial stuff you gotta c. US
Speaker 5: Soccer needs to clean up, and MLS needs to clean
Speaker 5: up with them.
Speaker 2: Ripping MLS out of this ain't ain't the answer.
Speaker 5: Also, one of the things was watching this game last night,
Speaker 5: was once again incredibly pissed off that you know, Atlanta
Speaker 5: loses that game to INDYE eleven.
Speaker 2: Because Indye eleven went and played SKC and lost. Case
Speaker 2: he was in the final.
Speaker 5: Last night, you two stands away from a final and
Speaker 5: he didn't get there.
Speaker 2: Because you lost. Don't do a USL team.
Speaker 1: Huh. I'm sorry. I'm angry all over again about it.
Speaker 2: It was unacceptable. Man. I get you were balancing guys
Speaker 2: because the schedule was chaotic at the time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but Jesus and it's sock.
Speaker 5: The worst part of that whole thing was like, once again,
Speaker 5: Daxon's like US Open career ends on a really ugly
Speaker 5: young goal where he's just trying to make a play
Speaker 5: like it sucked for Dax. Yeah, but dah Man, like
Speaker 5: MLS US soccer. I need you to sit down at
Speaker 5: the table. Bring the other leagues into this. Everyone, grab
Speaker 5: a seat at the table. Don't worry what this giant
Speaker 5: key and padlocker for min you own damn business. I'm
Speaker 5: just gonna lock the door from the outside. Look, there's
Speaker 5: snacks on the table, there's some bottled water.
Speaker 2: I even put some.
Speaker 5: Sparkling water from the bougie among you figure your shit
Speaker 5: out to get there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's uh, that's one way too. Uh, that's
Speaker 1: one way to look at it. Just get it, get
Speaker 1: it all squared away, and get your ish together.
Speaker 5: Uh part I would also accept Motel six and Tombo
Speaker 5: Debt presenting the trophy.
Speaker 1: Oh see, I mean I but we had we fixed
Speaker 1: the MLS All Star Game. Do we need to fix
Speaker 1: Open Cup now too?
Speaker 5: I mean possibly. I mean there's, like I said, like,
Speaker 5: there's some of the things that Don Garber is.
Speaker 2: Really really good at putting his foot.
Speaker 5: In his mouth, even when he has a silent point,
Speaker 5: even when he is on a side that I agree with,
Speaker 5: like open Cup is not perfect.
Speaker 2: MLS does a lot of financial heavy lifting with open Cup.
Speaker 5: I get it, yea, even when he's on the what
Speaker 5: on a side I agree with, I still feel like
Speaker 5: Don Garber likes to insert foot into mouth.
Speaker 2: A lot, and like, man, you don't have to play
Speaker 2: tough guy with this.
Speaker 5: You don't have to play like the aggressive We're the
Speaker 5: good guys. Angle It's it's okay.
Speaker 1: Boss, we get it all right. So it took me
Speaker 1: a while and I couldn't find it in an organized
Speaker 1: form without the dates being blotted out. So I finally
Speaker 1: got it. Uh Nino Torres joining us in ten minutes. Okay,
Speaker 1: So you play two matches, you're one and one, you
Speaker 1: beat Core one nil, then you get a three week break.
Speaker 1: After that three week break, out of the blocks, you
Speaker 1: lose three of four and the first two matches after
Speaker 1: that three week break. You get out scored nine to one.
Speaker 1: It was also to the top two teams in the
Speaker 1: Eastern Conference now Union in Cincinnati. Then you play all
Speaker 1: the way through, and then you get a little bit
Speaker 1: of rhythm in your play, and then you stop May
Speaker 1: thirty first, Then you come back June twenty sixth May
Speaker 1: thirty first to June twenty sixth, gap, you come back
Speaker 1: June twenty six. Then you end up with two matches
Speaker 1: in a week, and you end up with five of
Speaker 1: six on the road. This isn't Lanta nighted two schedule.
Speaker 1: You start with six of your first seven and home three.
Speaker 5: Six and you and you know, and let's speak blunts
Speaker 5: about it didn't win enough of.
Speaker 2: Those They did not win enough.
Speaker 1: Of those games.
Speaker 2: That is why you're in it.
Speaker 5: Look, first team is in a very similar situation. Look,
Speaker 5: first team is.
Speaker 2: Not out of the playoffs. They're they're in a gaggle
Speaker 2: of teams where they need to win games. You know
Speaker 2: why you're in a gaggle of teams You need.
Speaker 5: To win games because you lost like five or six
Speaker 5: straight at home that you shouldn't have lost. The teams
Speaker 5: you shouldn't have lost to now granted two of those losses,
Speaker 5: I can look directly at Pro and slap them upside
Speaker 5: the face. For the LAFC game was a joke, and
Speaker 5: the Charlotte game turns on one of the most unacceptable
Speaker 5: far overturns that I've ever seen. Charlotte was dead in
Speaker 5: the water in that game, and Pro handed them a
Speaker 5: goal and a lifeline back into that game.
Speaker 2: You shouldn't have lost to Minnesota in that span. You
Speaker 2: should have beat Philadelphia. Like you, you dropped games that
Speaker 2: you can't drop, and the twos did that too, They
Speaker 2: dropped home games that they can't drop.
Speaker 1: Right, you had it was six of seven at home
Speaker 1: to start, then you had seven of nine on the road.
Speaker 1: You get off to the start where you lose three
Speaker 1: your first four at home, but then you end up
Speaker 1: with scheduled compression and you lose of those three. Say,
Speaker 1: of the seven of eight that you started at home,
Speaker 1: you only won two, so you could have made Hey,
Speaker 1: well the sun shine and you only won two. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you win to your first eight. Then you go on
Speaker 1: the road for seven of nine and you don't. You
Speaker 1: win two of those. You win them, both of them
Speaker 1: against Hunt City where it's the beginning in the end,
Speaker 1: but you know you end up in as a part
Speaker 1: of that. After match three in this seven of nine
Speaker 1: on the road, you end up with a three week
Speaker 1: well actually it's almost a full month break because May
Speaker 1: thirty first to June twenty six you do not play
Speaker 1: at all, which is just unconscionable to me looking at
Speaker 1: how you make this schedule and put it together. Then
Speaker 1: when you get into a rhythm after that second break,
Speaker 1: you have the runt where you win three in a
Speaker 1: row and you're unbeaten in four, and then you're you're
Speaker 1: finding your way through this. You have the draw with
Speaker 1: Crew two at home, you lose at Matthew's two to one,
Speaker 1: you win three in a row, you draw at the
Speaker 1: Erector set against the Baby Herons, and then you end
Speaker 1: up with the streak where you're playing OCB at home
Speaker 1: and you're at Core on a and that Core game
Speaker 1: was goofy because that was the one where f for
Speaker 1: got the red card. It was two to one at
Speaker 1: the time f forg got the red and then you're
Speaker 1: chasing in so the score line I don't think indicated
Speaker 1: really the play for the twos there and the game
Speaker 1: against Core. Then you had the crazy game in Chattanooga,
Speaker 1: then you had the draw that you that you salvaged
Speaker 1: late with an EFRA header, and then the game against
Speaker 1: Hunt City which was all over the place, and so uh,
Speaker 1: that's where you were. So after that second break at Lanty,
Speaker 1: Unity two comes and they they got a handle on things.
Speaker 1: But when you have two three week breaks, two three
Speaker 1: week breaks.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, two three week breaks, I mean. The thing.
Speaker 5: The thing about both of the clubs this year, and
Speaker 5: one of the reasons I got disappointed by by their
Speaker 5: feelings to get into the playoffs is despite especially with
Speaker 5: the first seam, despite any doom and gloom. This is
Speaker 5: not a this is not a rant to dump on
Speaker 5: them or say that everything sucks or doom and gloom,
Speaker 5: because what's frustrating is the inconsistency.
Speaker 2: Because boats showed you that they can be good, but they.
Speaker 5: Didn't show that consistency, and those disappointing performances would not
Speaker 5: be as disappointing if I did not feel like they
Speaker 5: can be better, Like the talent is better, the players
Speaker 5: are better, the collective can be better than what they showed,
Speaker 5: because yeah, man, we got some games where the twos
Speaker 5: were just not on the step Maddie and I had
Speaker 5: a number of times we went down to that locker
Speaker 5: room or you know, the locker room, excuse.
Speaker 2: Me, in the media room.
Speaker 5: Yea, and Steve had come in after just reading the
Speaker 5: Absolute ride Act to them. We watched the first team
Speaker 5: sleep walk through this unacceptable game with Nashville two weeks ago. Uh,
Speaker 5: both teams had those games where, like you just for
Speaker 5: whatever reason, guys weren't up for it. And to Rob's point,
Speaker 5: Gonzo's point when he was here, look, coach cannot not
Speaker 5: go out there and do it for you, which is
Speaker 5: one of the things we stressed with Gonzo when he
Speaker 5: was here, like he can't go out there and do
Speaker 5: it for him, and getting moving him, moving on from him,
Speaker 5: getting him out of here wasn't going to fix everything.
Speaker 5: Clearly did not fix everything. And guys gotta look in
Speaker 5: the mirror because they're better than that. And that's it's
Speaker 5: it's those disappointing performances, not to sit here and say
Speaker 5: that everything sucks and everyone sucks and we should burn
Speaker 5: everything down, because they are better than that. And that's
Speaker 5: what always gave me more gray hairs, is the fact
Speaker 5: that they are better than that. They were better than that.
Speaker 2: They showed better than that, and they didn't.
Speaker 5: They did not consistently deliver better than that.
Speaker 2: That's on them to figure out.
Speaker 5: Like I said, coaches, Rob Gonzo, Steve Cook cannot go
Speaker 5: out bear and do it for him. That cannot be
Speaker 5: behind them with Whips and with Fire twenty four.
Speaker 1: Seven, And Michael says the way to fix the MLS
Speaker 1: All Star Game is to end it. It's almost like
Speaker 1: the end of war games for Michael.
Speaker 2: Sometimes I would actually support this, I don't really care.
Speaker 5: We look, we fixed the MLS All Star Game, Nick
Speaker 5: and I did, and John we introduced Maddy to it,
Speaker 5: and Maddie is like low key horrified by the insanities.
Speaker 2: That we have created. This like Eldridge horror of an
Speaker 2: All Star game, the.
Speaker 1: Hell of a TV show though, but we.
Speaker 2: We fixed it.
Speaker 5: Just do that, like don't don't let it be serious,
Speaker 5: turn into like a royal rumble thing.
Speaker 2: Let it be dumb, doesn't make serious.
Speaker 1: I'm fun with it. So no one gets injured and
Speaker 1: screws up the rest of their season slash career because
Speaker 1: of a body check that happens in your own venue
Speaker 1: and legs up uh Tom until the TV show known
Speaker 1: as League Cup gets canceled for low ratings or low
Speaker 1: interest or whatever. It's always it's it's going it is
Speaker 1: going to be a TV show that is going to
Speaker 1: be attached to Apple TV Plus. It is a TV
Speaker 1: It's like Shrinking and Ted Lasso. It is a TV
Speaker 1: show on Apple TV Plus.
Speaker 2: Oh I started watching Shrinking. It was pretty good.
Speaker 5: Yes, I And look, Tom Michael, I get it. They're
Speaker 5: making money off of it. It's not You're not going
Speaker 5: to just be able to power it away.
Speaker 2: We can. You can wish it away all you wanted.
Speaker 2: There's money in it for him.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. So easiest thing to to fix Open Cup,
Speaker 1: Leagues Cup. Just flex out your rosters, just make it,
Speaker 1: make it. Make it like the n b A. Don't
Speaker 1: put limits on the number of times that you can
Speaker 1: use someone and call someone up. Give your roster the
Speaker 1: accepted flexibility. Where l a FC did the quiet part
Speaker 1: out loud two seasons ago. Remember the game against Monterey
Speaker 1: Bay where they started seven LAFC two players and a
Speaker 1: backup keeper and still couldn't beat and still couldn't lose
Speaker 1: to Monterey Bay. That's what they did. They did the
Speaker 1: quiet part out loud do that, but do it out loud,
Speaker 1: go ahead and say it's all right to to you know,
Speaker 1: have your your twos players up there if you want,
Speaker 1: give them that option, expand your roster capabilities for this
Speaker 1: kind of a thing to do open Cup if you
Speaker 1: don't want in shoot or ish. I mean, you got
Speaker 1: teams in England running through the Gummy Bear Cup right now,
Speaker 1: in short of Michael's Chelsea, who had a four hundred
Speaker 1: million pounds b squad out there the other day. There
Speaker 1: are times where you'll see academy kids out there for
Speaker 1: some of the big guns in Gummy Bear Cup. They'll
Speaker 1: care more about Fa Cup more than they will Gummy Bear.
Speaker 5: That's that's yeah. I need MLS the Players Association, instead
Speaker 5: of laying everybody to figure.
Speaker 2: Their lives out.
Speaker 5: Absolutely so we can have this so we can Yeah,
Speaker 5: so we can say, hey, we're gonna on Open Cuper
Speaker 5: Leaks Cup and we're gonna put academy kids.
Speaker 2: Out there, right, go for it. Yeah. It's still as.
Speaker 5: Bs that a player can play in us L and
Speaker 5: still which is a professional league. They maintain their eligibility
Speaker 5: to play college athletics, but they can't play an MLS
Speaker 5: game and maintain their eligibility.
Speaker 7: Yeah, get the hell on, Yes, Michael, Yes, there Hey,
Speaker 7: there were moments of leaks cuff that were hilarious, like
Speaker 7: in just a just an absurd sick go.
Speaker 5: Way like there are there were moments where they were
Speaker 5: absolutely hilarious to watch on the vault, and they're gonna
Speaker 5: need to find a way to make it more appealing
Speaker 5: as time goes on, though, They're gonna need to refine it.
Speaker 5: I'm sure they're gonn try because again, yeah, I'm right.
Speaker 2: Television proud.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So uh, I mean that's it. Look I mean,
Speaker 1: I mean, but yeah, we we fixed the world's issues.
Speaker 1: That's why we were nominated for a football Content award
Speaker 1: because we fixed the world's problems. I imagine there was
Speaker 1: a little bit more to it than that, but yes,
Speaker 1: and yees. Schedule compression, good lord Christ the absolute inverse
Speaker 1: of what happened with Atlanta United two. You end up
Speaker 1: with well and because of three week break, you end
Speaker 1: up with scheduled compression, and you end up with uh
Speaker 1: because it's six and nineteen. I think for the twos,
Speaker 1: at one point, as I put my schedule away, I
Speaker 1: think they had six matches in nineteen days with the
Speaker 1: two three week breaks that were thrown into their schedule.
Speaker 1: So it's like, look, just just come at it with
Speaker 1: common sense, y'all.
Speaker 5: Yo, But John, don't you know six games in nineteen
Speaker 5: days is fine because you had a three week break
Speaker 5: and you actually stockpile all of that time off. It's
Speaker 5: not like the body actually needs time to recover from things. Now,
Speaker 5: three week break cover everything. You just stuck pile and
Speaker 5: you just you hoard all that time off, you hoard
Speaker 5: all that oxygen. You just do a little blood spinning
Speaker 5: like you're climbing up the tourd of frosts, and then
Speaker 5: you go about your life.
Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely true, that that is absolutely how this works. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Your your body, your body, your body, you know, saving
Speaker 1: all of that energy and from those two three week breaks,
Speaker 1: then turning around and playing six and nineteen it is
Speaker 1: like a squirrel trying to get ready for hibernation.
Speaker 5: You could also expand out the rosters and expand out
Speaker 5: the salary cap and let teams build more complete teams
Speaker 5: with better death that can play these tournaments.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you could also do that.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Yeah, you could also do that, But no,
Speaker 1: why would you why would you want to do something
Speaker 1: like that. Now we can't we can't have that. Just
Speaker 1: to put a bow on what happened with LAFC and
Speaker 1: Sporting Eric times, I'm scored in the sixtieth after Olivier's
Speaker 1: Jeru who said he's gonna fly twenty hours this month
Speaker 1: on planes, on for matches for beginning mcgah for Major
Speaker 1: League Soccer. Congratulations Olivia, Jeru, welcome to traveling in the
Speaker 1: United States in general. For business. Compost scored at one
Speaker 1: o two. Kai Kamara scored at one oh nine three
Speaker 1: to one your final and uh so uh because of this,
Speaker 1: because of all of that, because of all of that,
Speaker 1: fix your fantasy teams, people, keep an eye on your
Speaker 1: fantasy teams and allow yourself the flexibility because of what
Speaker 1: we're seeing with Sporting. Not that you would necessarily have
Speaker 1: Sporting in your fantasy team, but keep an eye on LAFC,
Speaker 1: keep an eye on Columbus, keep an eye on Vancouver,
Speaker 1: keep an eye on Toronto. When you fix your fantasy
Speaker 1: teams in coming up this weekend. All right, Uh, it
Speaker 1: is our number two and you know what that means.
Speaker 1: That means that we gotch up with one of the posse.
Speaker 1: And I'm stretching, and I'm looking at him. I'm looking
Speaker 1: at him in the green room. He's getting a gassed
Speaker 1: up ready to go, because this is where we take
Speaker 1: the tour, and this is where we go fully loaded.
Speaker 1: Whether Buddy Nino Torres dropping all them dimes from Peru,
Speaker 1: they're always wearing his Universitario Jersey. He's all dialed up
Speaker 1: on that because there's some apparently there's some how do
Speaker 1: we phrase controversy involving this stuff?
Speaker 8: You know, you know you losgh community, mister John Nelson,
Speaker 8: Junt Smith, Yeah, everybody, yeah, man, so happy.
Speaker 1: To be here, man, Yeah, all right. So we got
Speaker 1: into Open Cup. We were talking about the US Open
Speaker 1: Cup and talking about Campion's Cup and all the competitions
Speaker 1: that happened last night, and Jared and I were getting
Speaker 1: into the weeds. And one of the one of the
Speaker 1: things that we did, and this was before you started
Speaker 1: joining us, going fully loaded on your Thursdays. Yes, you're
Speaker 1: gonna need to be hydrated for this, is that because
Speaker 1: of the flaws of MLS's All Star Game, we spent
Speaker 1: two consecutive years fixing the MLS All Star Game. Now
Speaker 1: it is our Now it is our duty to fix
Speaker 1: Open Cup and League's Cup and get that on the board.
Speaker 1: So we were fixing all of that stuff and complaining
Speaker 1: about scheduled compression and all these kinds of things and
Speaker 1: seeing things come out the other side. Columbus Crew make
Speaker 1: it to the last game. Yeah, and I know you
Speaker 1: got your tattoo. You got your tattoo of the Columbus
Speaker 1: Ohio perimeter on that left on that left soup bony yours.
Speaker 1: There it is. And they made it to the last
Speaker 1: match in Compioni's Cup before losing to Clubamedica in penalties.
Speaker 1: So they get to the end of the line. And
Speaker 1: Jarrett is of the mindset. And I don't think he's
Speaker 1: in a minority that Wilford Nanzi is going to be
Speaker 1: getting phone calls from the other side of the Atlantic
Speaker 1: because of what he is doing. Does he is he
Speaker 1: the kind of guy you think that would stay and
Speaker 1: continue to build in Columbus or does he jump and
Speaker 1: go back home? You think.
Speaker 4: It's a good question, man.
Speaker 9: Uh, but but I think when he took the chances
Speaker 9: again to come over here to to Columbus.
Speaker 4: He didn't realize how well was he going to do?
Speaker 9: And uh, you you come up with with expectations to
Speaker 9: you to do the best of the UH that you can.
Speaker 9: But when you get this, this kind of success, we're
Speaker 9: talking about four finals in a year. Man for four
Speaker 9: finals in a year is an unpresent for for MLS
Speaker 9: teams and Uh, I think that his commitment with the
Speaker 9: club is is gonna make you say, maybe for another year.
Speaker 4: I want to say one more year. Okay, but then
Speaker 4: it's crazy.
Speaker 9: But at the same time, it's strassy nowadays because it's
Speaker 9: so hard to turn down the the the the obnoxious
Speaker 9: amount of money that is coming from the office right
Speaker 9: and and I don't know if that that kind of
Speaker 9: that kind of money is gonna be going down in
Speaker 9: the MLS anytime soon. So but basically what the guy did,
Speaker 9: basically what his relationship with with the players, with the club.
Speaker 9: I think I would stay. I would stay one one
Speaker 9: more year, see, you know, to to give me, you know,
Speaker 9: maybe maybe I can get another championship. Maybe I can.
Speaker 9: You know, you gotta win that. Come calf again in
Speaker 9: UH put the not just the crew of the Continental
Speaker 9: map again, but the MLS.
Speaker 1: Jared leading off with your first question for Nino here
Speaker 1: is we're fully loaded on a Thursday.
Speaker 2: Yeah, This is actually I think my only one. I
Speaker 2: have a work call I have to jump on to.
Speaker 5: But I will want to ask about No, no, no,
Speaker 5: I want to ask about.
Speaker 2: I want to ask about what was down We're about
Speaker 2: to follow last night.
Speaker 1: Okay, we're going there, all right.
Speaker 5: I'm using violence to start, I'm dropping a grenade to
Speaker 5: leave it.
Speaker 4: Oh, so let me ask you. I'm gonna I'm gonna
Speaker 4: answer that question with another question. So how many finals
Speaker 4: for UH for Atlanta this year?
Speaker 5: There will be there will there will be a final game,
Speaker 5: our final game on decision Day?
Speaker 2: Is that?
Speaker 1: Wow?
Speaker 2: Wow?
Speaker 1: Jared went with violence and Nino just shot right back.
Speaker 1: He took the grenade. Literally, Jared threw a grenade.
Speaker 5: No, that's fine, no, because like it wasn't even just
Speaker 5: the grenade. It was just the insanity.
Speaker 2: Of that game that like I got, you.
Speaker 5: Know, I was on the road for ten hours yesterday
Speaker 5: driving back from Florida, and I got home just in
Speaker 5: time for a shootout and nothing. I said that about
Speaker 5: what the hell is happening? Like I don't know, like

Speaker 9: complaints were coming bal Or to Americana, but this I
Speaker 9: have this to don't gover.
Speaker 4: Once when he was.
Speaker 9: In Columbus, so most I said, hey, any chance that

Speaker 9: about this and go from Seattle to freaking Buenos Aires.
Speaker 4: Man, I don't know how many hours it's just to fly.
Speaker 9: It's like fifteen hours, fifteen give it a take, right,
Speaker 9: it's it's.

Speaker 4: you know what, why not try one year, just one year.
Speaker 5: Right, there's enough money for them to try it. There's
Speaker 5: enough money on the table. They'll try anything once.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm, yeah, I mean it.
Speaker 4: This is a lot of money on the table.
Speaker 2: So I don't know.
Speaker 9: I think if you, if you guys have'm talking about
Speaker 9: Domingus on Darby.
Speaker 4: Think is why not?
Speaker 2: Man? Why not?

Speaker 2: I would?
Speaker 5: I would lose my mind if they try. Can you
Speaker 5: imagine Mercedes Benz Stadium. Yeah, we juniors coming here for
Speaker 5: a full stadium experience.
Speaker 2: People would not know what to do. They're not prepared
Speaker 2: for that. They're not prepared for Like, hey, we sit
Speaker 2: l A f C on the road, what'd you do?
Speaker 2: We're sitting into Monumental?
Speaker 6: How'd that go?
Speaker 5: That?
Speaker 2: Will no one?
Speaker 1: I was ready for that, but still, man, do you
Speaker 1: you dropping those perspective matchups? I pulled the rock here
Speaker 1: from WrestleMania forty. I'm like, I'm doing that.
Speaker 2: I'm doing Olivia.
Speaker 5: Olivia the Ruse played all over Europe dropping in Monumentsal
Speaker 5: at thirty eight years old, like nope, nope, nope. Sorry guys,
Speaker 5: my calf tightened up.
Speaker 2: I'm good.
Speaker 1: I mean, could you. I mean picture this. We we're
Speaker 1: fixing international soccer this morning. I'm fully loaded, that's what
Speaker 1: we're doing. I mean picture this. If you had an
Speaker 1: L A f C. If you had a Messian friends,
Speaker 1: if you you get the Gulf Stream Galacticos to go
Speaker 1: play river plate and have it mean something? Holy Christ.
Speaker 4: No, no, just let me let me go a step forward.
Speaker 1: There, here we go. All right, we're go for it.
Speaker 4: So of course I swear I didn't smoke anything weird
Speaker 4: this morning. But when I say this, all right, how
Speaker 4: about just picture this right in Atlanta, United.
Speaker 6: Couple, Oh my god, there's.
Speaker 2: You want.
Speaker 5: You want money on the table. Then enter Miami, down
Speaker 5: to Newles, then Messi and down to Newles. Oh wow,
Speaker 5: watch what happens. They might retire on the spot and
Speaker 5: just hang out for a while.
Speaker 2: But watch that. Watch the attendance of that game.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, you got you better have
Speaker 1: the you better have the gendarme, like in like a
Speaker 1: three mile radius around Newell Stadium. Because of all the
Speaker 1: stories that folks are saying about Messi if he ever
Speaker 1: comes home and goes back to Newles But I mean
Speaker 1: to have those kinds of matchups, to have an l
Speaker 1: A f C, to have an LA Galaxy, to have
Speaker 1: a crew, to have a MESSI and friends, to have
Speaker 1: in Atlanta, United going into the into these competitions that
Speaker 1: we the SDH super Copa. That's it. That's what we're
Speaker 1: calling up, the sd super Copa. When we win, when
Speaker 1: we win the powerball or whatever, we're gonna take our
Speaker 1: random clubs that we want, throw them into this pot
Speaker 1: and do like a it's like winner take all. Here's
Speaker 1: like five million US winner take all in this invitational,
Speaker 1: the SDH super Copa. We're in. I got this figured out, man,
Speaker 1: We're good.
Speaker 4: That's it. That's it.
Speaker 1: I'm all. I'm all jacked up now, okay, all right,
Speaker 1: So both the Focos the Apollo. Last night, some guy
Speaker 1: named Thiago Almada scored. Folks in Atlanta might have heard
Speaker 1: of him. Then for the longest time it was one nil,
Speaker 1: and then the eighty seventh you get an equalizer. Then
Speaker 1: it goes to pe K's and has that. And even
Speaker 1: though it didn't and I say this jokingly because in
Speaker 1: the end it didn't really matter, but has that one
Speaker 1: PK knocked And Jared mentioned this that that one PK
Speaker 1: that went well over the bar, has that one knocked
Speaker 1: the Michael Bradley p K and a decaying orbit.
Speaker 9: It's gotta be like that. And and you know, I
Speaker 9: was watching that game. I watched the full game of
Speaker 9: follow and whattfolo? And really that's a polity, no god
Speaker 9: match man, no god matching?
Speaker 2: What the follow?
Speaker 4: And then I'm so happy for for what the bol
Speaker 4: to reach the finals, then the finals.
Speaker 1: There's just still a couple more games semis.
Speaker 11: Yeah, but they got the semi finals of the Coming
Speaker 11: Bowl tournament in fifty one years, man, fifty one years man,
Speaker 11: it is It is ridiculous.
Speaker 4: So it's special for what thefore? And I'm so happy
Speaker 4: for an after that derail from last year.
Speaker 9: They were leaning for seventeen points and they ended up behind,
Speaker 9: and they have blowing up that lead.
Speaker 4: Seventeen point lead, man, how do you go up seventeen
Speaker 4: point leading a tone? It is ridiculous. But back to
Speaker 4: the penalty thing, it's that's the beauty.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 4: I don't know why people, why people, it's against the penalties.
Speaker 12: It's in the most even decision for a game, you know,
Speaker 12: just you know, then you gotta go for clipping a
Speaker 12: colin in, right. But penalties are fun, penalties are dramatic.
Speaker 9: Penalties adds so much more to the game and a
Speaker 9: lot more to the game.
Speaker 4: And I'm so for it for the for the penalties.
Speaker 4: But I mean said that, you know, I missed when
Speaker 4: I missed from Prince Rules.
Speaker 9: It's the the golden goal.
Speaker 1: Okay, that was that was That was awesome.
Speaker 9: That that was super dramaic. But because because once you score,
Speaker 9: the game was over. That moment you score game over,
Speaker 9: game over, Oh my beautiful.
Speaker 4: I think they might consider to bring that up back up.
Speaker 1: That would be pretty sweet night. It is peni Roll
Speaker 1: and Flamingo. Flamingo in the juice boxes is a plus
Speaker 1: one twenty four. They're a road favorite six o'clock Eastern time.
Speaker 1: In the US, peni Roll is a plus two thirty five,
Speaker 1: and Flamingo is a plus two twenty two.
Speaker 9: Oh pion All Everyone's soup be supporting Pinionole the Catronados.
Speaker 9: The Giants are Batman. The Giants are five times champions,
Speaker 9: go believe its man, five times man, and now they.
Speaker 4: Have even won this tournament since nineteen eighty seven.
Speaker 9: This is the first chance to go back into the
Speaker 9: finals since twenty eleven when they.
Speaker 4: Lost to Santos.
Speaker 9: And uh, what I saw in the first leg being
Speaker 9: you you old, got you gotta you got Joe, you
Speaker 9: got to google dot dot golf. From being old, they're
Speaker 9: swimming many Google up because it's just it's this magic.
Speaker 9: It's magic, you know, all the elaboration from side to side.
Speaker 9: It's not on one side finishing the other side and
Speaker 9: having to hold hoving to the the character to hold
Speaker 9: on Flamingo because they went after them, but Pole did
Speaker 9: not finch, did not finch one time, not one time.
Speaker 9: Everything all the short was so solid, and they could
Speaker 9: have wanted.
Speaker 4: They could have put a couple more goals with a couple.
Speaker 9: More counter attacks, so it could have been the distance
Speaker 9: could have been longer, but one.
Speaker 6: It is what it is.
Speaker 4: And now they're going back to a Celo Stadium.
Speaker 9: Imotivideo sold out, completely sold out Biondelo in motivideo to
Speaker 9: welcome the old Mighty Flamingo. That a roster of two
Speaker 9: hundred and fifty million dollars, bigger than anyone else in
Speaker 9: the in the continent. All right, it was funny because
Speaker 9: the other day we were somebody match up the rosters leagues,
Speaker 9: right leagues, right. See, the the roughter of Flamengo is
Speaker 9: more valuable than the entirely got Oh no, it proved
Speaker 9: that the entire league a Colorian league, that the entire
Speaker 9: Columbia league the league bro that's the difference that there
Speaker 9: is now between the Brazilians and the rest of the continents.
Speaker 6: And but but if there's.
Speaker 4: A concrete that can stand up against Brazil.
Speaker 2: That's your wife.
Speaker 4: And they they've done it many times, many times, and
Speaker 4: that thing they're gonna do it.
Speaker 1: I get it.
Speaker 4: It's the moment for piano. Let's go pian, all right.
Speaker 1: Uh, the other half of the bracket has already been
Speaker 1: figured out and they don't play again until late October.
Speaker 1: It's Atletic, it's Atletico and river Plate and so river
Speaker 1: Plate after knocking off Colo Colo two one in the aggregate,
Speaker 1: they advanced and Athletico was down one nil to flem
Speaker 1: An Insay before scoring two goals and making their way
Speaker 1: through So Atletico River Plate one semifinal. Both the Fogo
Speaker 1: waits on pay roll. Who's up one nil in the
Speaker 1: aggregate right now on Flamingo. So that is a couple
Speaker 1: of birth the doors now we got.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that's the.
Speaker 9: More even match up right there between Real played and
Speaker 9: Athletic Dominato, because I think we played has.
Speaker 4: Enough to be Athletic mania after what I saw last night.
Speaker 4: It was it was a massacre.
Speaker 9: Twenty five shots, twenty five shots from Athletic do Minato,
Speaker 9: seventeen of those on target.
Speaker 4: The seventeen on target.
Speaker 9: All right, the goal was massive. Then there it'scoring. Only
Speaker 9: two goals. It missed a penalty, Hulk missed a penalty.
Speaker 9: But Attic Dominado last night it was wild.
Speaker 1: It was.
Speaker 9: It was scary, scary, and I think that we played
Speaker 9: even with the old mighty Ga Yardo and the world
Speaker 9: champions with and the tourn of Cini for real play.
Speaker 9: This is gonna be off to who knows, who knows?
Speaker 1: Soon.
Speaker 4: I want to see that we have played versus Spando.
Speaker 1: Finally, Oh yeah, no doubt uh soon Americana, they're still
Speaker 1: in the quarters leading into the Semis. Corinthians made it
Speaker 1: no problem. They had beat fort Lesa five nil in
Speaker 1: the aggregate to make it to the Semis. And yesterday
Speaker 1: Lanoos was going up against the Indiana mid Ejen and
Speaker 1: for Lenows there's another familiar phase for Atlanta United folks.
Speaker 1: It is Marcelna Moreno. So Marcelna Moreno's getting reps right
Speaker 1: now at Lenouse and Lenous. It took him a while,
Speaker 1: but they got the win. It was a goal is
Speaker 1: going into leg two. Lenus gets the win to to
Speaker 1: one in the the aggregate, so they advance in the
Speaker 1: other two matchups are today. So before we get into
Speaker 1: Liberta da Suncion, Crusero and Attic Para instant Ross and Klube,
Speaker 1: what about Corinthians and Lenouse making it through.
Speaker 4: I think Corinthians is gonna take it. Corinthians is gonna take.
Speaker 10: It on on Lanus and and I love, I love
Speaker 10: that my boy Andre Carrio is starting now, not just
Speaker 10: playing for Corinthians, starting for Corinthians in the right wing.
Speaker 9: And the picture is right because in Brazil, if you
Speaker 9: if there's if there's two positions that we can get
Speaker 9: more quality is wingers and our backs, right, and he
Speaker 9: is playing as a winger in THELA that is remarkable
Speaker 9: at the age of thirty two. My boy, all my
Speaker 9: my goodbybes to you, and and Luis it's it's a classic.
Speaker 9: It's a classic Insul American. Did they always go up
Speaker 9: there when they started to make it run? It's so
Speaker 9: hard to stop him and I that's a that's a
Speaker 9: very even match up right there, Corinthians and and Lenus.
Speaker 9: So we'll see what happens him. We'll see what happens
Speaker 9: in those today. Both of them are at eight thirty.
Speaker 9: So it's simultaneous play. Crusero heavy favorite at home against
Speaker 9: Libertatasunciona to minus one seventy five, and this is to
Speaker 9: win the match, specifically, not to go through in the aggregate. Okay,
Speaker 9: Crusero big favorite minus one seventy five to win tonight.
Speaker 9: Libertatasunciona is almost a plus five hundred to win tonight.
Speaker 9: Ross and Clube basically the same.
Speaker 1: They're minus one seventy nine tonight, hosting athletical part in
Speaker 1: i NSA at a plus four eighty four. So right
Speaker 1: now the juice boxers are saying Crusado and Rossing Clube
Speaker 1: winning tonight to work their way through. But the biggest
Speaker 1: question is can they win big enough tonight, because can
Speaker 1: they win big enough tonight to get through? Cruzero's already
Speaker 1: got a two nil lead. So if they win, they've
Speaker 1: got some money to play with. Here. Athletical part I
Speaker 1: insay is up one nil heading into leg number two,
Speaker 1: Ross and Clube has some work to do.
Speaker 9: I think that Rossing Globe, the game is gonna go
Speaker 9: into the penalties. Man, They're gonna go into penalties. I
Speaker 9: don't think that, even though who knows that? Because if
Speaker 9: we got Martinez and Kato in a in a in
Speaker 9: a big night, it could be something special for Russian
Speaker 9: that they're looking to go back into the the semi finals.
Speaker 4: Of International Company Chapter twenty seven years.
Speaker 9: It's been it's been a long time in the in
Speaker 9: the making for Russian who has a cous as a man.
Speaker 4: Of the house, right, a big, big rassing gist leading
Speaker 4: the way. But uh, it all depends.
Speaker 9: It all depends if the Columbia is all fire case closed. Okay, close,
Speaker 9: thing goes with all penalties, but it could be either way.
Speaker 10: And the other match up, the Crusado, they're gonna not
Speaker 10: gonna have any merit in Liberta.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, Liberta, you got your chance to see if
Speaker 4: this is the thing. If they win and home they're done.
Speaker 9: Yeah, so yeah, you you you gotta you gotta go now,
Speaker 9: I go to Brazil and you you're not gonna make it.
Speaker 1: You're not gonna make it, all right, So I have
Speaker 1: your list and I have we have we have three
Speaker 1: topics to get to before we do the handoff. And
Speaker 1: I know that you probably want to ask about uh
Speaker 1: Roberta drs and Suit Americana with Nico when he shows
Speaker 1: up here in probably about ten minutes. So since we're
Speaker 1: discussing what's going on in the South American continent story
Speaker 1: involving your jersey, you say historical championship controversy between the
Speaker 1: two Peruvian giants, Universitario and Aleanza Lima, Please, sir, explain
Speaker 1: and expound.
Speaker 9: So that's crazy, right, I don't know what's going on
Speaker 9: with the with the with the people from Alima, because
Speaker 9: this is the year of the Cincinnado whenever, for one
Speaker 9: hundred years of the of the club and then they've
Speaker 9: been throwing stories here and there, but yesterday it was
Speaker 9: one of the I mean for me, for us, it's funny, right,
Speaker 9: for when you study fantasy, it's funny because it's all
Speaker 9: said and done.
Speaker 4: Water has more championships than anyone else. Right, we got
Speaker 4: twenty seven titles.
Speaker 9: Alias Elva has twenty five, but there is uh this
Speaker 9: story from the title from nineteen thirty four.
Speaker 4: Nineteen thirty four, you know the books, the official.
Speaker 9: The official records from the PREVIM the soccer federations, is
Speaker 9: that when you started reports won the title for nineteen
Speaker 9: thirty four, right, and Alias Alima won the previous three.
Speaker 9: They got the the the three championships in a row.
Speaker 9: They could have done it four in a row. Unpresidented.
Speaker 4: It never is done. It has never been done in
Speaker 4: Peru anyway. So but there's these uh historians, historians.
Speaker 9: They say that, I'm not that's not true that Alan
Speaker 9: Salima won that year, even though the title points at
Speaker 9: twenty one points right, twenty one points on twenty one
Speaker 9: for another studio. But it was decided because of the
Speaker 9: result of the reserves. So aliensa reserve. It needn studios reserve,
Speaker 9: and that's how they decided the title, right and uh.
Speaker 9: And then the pruing OCCA Federation said, you know what,
Speaker 9: We're gonna play one matchup one. It took like six
Speaker 9: months or so, we're gonna play another matchup. We're gonna
Speaker 9: we can all leave this like that, we can all
Speaker 9: be deciding this tournament because of.
Speaker 1: We're gonna do a plus one.
Speaker 2: There you go.
Speaker 4: You know we're gonna were gonna play one game and
Speaker 4: one game only, and it gets who won. We won't,
Speaker 4: all right, but no, no, no, no, no, this is
Speaker 4: not true. This is not true. You gotta start fake,
Speaker 4: you gotta start fake.
Speaker 9: So this guy, this Brandon journalist, send an email to
Speaker 9: FIFA in February right third.
Speaker 6: I think it is the date.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you just.
Speaker 4: Got that response yesterday, right yesterday, got the response.
Speaker 9: No, the champion of nineteen thirty four improved, and that
Speaker 9: it's been going on all around.
Speaker 1: You have no idea, man, It's like Southeastern Conference football.
Speaker 1: It's like you know, rivalries. No, we've got this many wins, No,
Speaker 1: we've got this. No, we know exactly what you're talking
Speaker 1: about with college football and those kinds of things. Brother.
Speaker 1: That is that is That's about Park. That's about that's
Speaker 1: about Park.
Speaker 4: It was funny, man, it was funny.
Speaker 1: That is absolutely and and so yeah, I can I
Speaker 1: can see how you guys are taking swings at each
Speaker 1: other over that. But yeah, that's that's that. That is
Speaker 1: a college football Saturday in the Southeast. Man. You get
Speaker 1: those rivalry numbers.
Speaker 4: Their official records.
Speaker 1: Man the records on the records, you know, no, there Look,
Speaker 1: there are college football rivalries in the Southeastern United States
Speaker 1: where they dispute the number of wins. And it goes
Speaker 1: back to those times that are ninety to one hundred
Speaker 1: years ago, were records and newspapers. You remember newspapers where
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, yeah, this is what we think happened,
Speaker 1: but how many people were there and how many people
Speaker 1: remember it? And like, no, we won that game. No,
Speaker 1: that one didn't count. We had our guys off the war,
Speaker 1: and we had a you know, we had a team
Speaker 1: of of non students that were there. Oh, absolutely no,
Speaker 1: this is par for the course.
Speaker 9: And then and I'm gonna do something about this, maybe
Speaker 9: because I'm not I'm not I'm not done with the same.
Speaker 4: I'm sick of this.
Speaker 5: I know, you know when your title is, but not
Speaker 5: that there was.
Speaker 9: The h This this is the newspaper in Parokire is
Speaker 9: the the biggest one of all el coomercial they got
Speaker 9: they have, of course, they're archives, and I'm gonna go
Speaker 9: there and diving give me.
Speaker 4: The fives from nineteen thirty four. I'm gonna pull it,
Speaker 4: out it up. I don't know if I can take
Speaker 4: a picture or not, but we'll feel something out about.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go there and pull the fish rekles from
Speaker 4: that year because they have it.
Speaker 1: They do have it, so.
Speaker 2: Watch out, all right.
Speaker 1: You are hip deep in the Portuguese Premira right now?
Speaker 1: What's doing with goal TV? And it is time to
Speaker 1: get out the trumpet and hit it as loud as
Speaker 1: humanly possible. Grab the siren, sit there and wind it
Speaker 1: up and make it as loud as possible. Because you
Speaker 1: you are turning into the Victor Yokeresh fan club president.
Speaker 1: Understandably so considering what he's doing at Sporting, but you
Speaker 1: are sounding the Yo Korsh siren and hitting it as
Speaker 1: loud as humanly possible. The question that you brought to
Speaker 1: the table is he the best striker in the world
Speaker 1: right now? Your evidence, counselor leads to what leads.
Speaker 9: To forty goals in forty games this year, no one
Speaker 9: has more goals than Victor Joggris in the planet.
Speaker 4: He has more than Mbapei, he has more than Hallan.
Speaker 4: He's ahead of those two, all right, and not only
Speaker 4: that in the last ten matches. Last time listen to this.
Speaker 4: Huh seventeen goals on papacies in the last ten match.
Speaker 9: So tell me if your boy Halena has on that,
Speaker 9: tell me, tell me, just tell me, no, no, no, nobody,
Speaker 9: nobody is a little as Victor Yochris.
Speaker 4: Right now on the planet. Man on the planet.
Speaker 9: All right, So breaking out and of course you're want
Speaker 9: to see it in the Champions like now, week after
Speaker 9: week and he's gonna keep adding out those numbers and
Speaker 9: then they're going down to.
Speaker 4: Uh to Iron Dahmer next week and next week.
Speaker 9: So I think it's gonna be another another massive night
Speaker 9: for Bigger Yograshy in the Champions League and now this
Speaker 9: hopefully and hopefully in.
Speaker 4: The in the winter transfer window.
Speaker 9: So crazy it comes up with two hundred million to
Speaker 9: take out Joggers out of the Permier year. That's the
Speaker 9: only way that they can take him out because he's
Speaker 9: released closes right now is a hundred million now and.
Speaker 1: It's gonna get even bigger and bigger with Yo Koresh
Speaker 1: if Sporting can pull the trigger. My guess is it
Speaker 1: it'll happen after the regular season's over because they don't
Speaker 1: want to uh, you know, they don't want to upset
Speaker 1: things and what they're doing right now. They want to
Speaker 1: win the league. They want to go as far as
Speaker 1: they get a Champions League. They gotta hang under Yokoresh
Speaker 1: until the season's over. Then I think they make the deal.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 1: You also had a really cool story involving Sporting CP
Speaker 1: and one of their one of their big fans. What
Speaker 1: happened there?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 9: It was crazy, right because I was calling the game
Speaker 9: the Sporting game last weekend and I show this grandma
Speaker 9: and this grandma with her jersey of Sporting right, all
Speaker 9: the fans, all the the the head coach, he got
Speaker 9: pictures with the players and how it's going on on
Speaker 9: the air, and it is so cool because I when
Speaker 9: something like this happens in Portugal, I always said on
Speaker 9: her Guys filmman here, what's going on that? People on
Speaker 9: ex people on the Instagram everywhere? Just right to me,
Speaker 9: what's happening. I don't know what's happening because I prayed
Speaker 9: for the game, but I'm not prepped for an old
Speaker 9: lady coming into the stadium right when if it's eighty
Speaker 9: three year old jersey, I don't know what's going on.
Speaker 4: So then boom, somebody.
Speaker 9: Said that to me, Boom, send it to me and says,
Speaker 9: this lady lost her her house on a fire. Because
Speaker 9: there's a lot of fires in Portugal right now, as
Speaker 9: well as in Peru too. I'm glad that they're in.
Speaker 9: It's over now.
Speaker 2: But the.
Speaker 4: TV was, you know, this lady is losing her house.
Speaker 4: But she was saving her sporting club stuff from the fire.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 9: Right, her memorabilia, that's what she saved. That's what she
Speaker 9: rescued from her house. Nothing else but her beloved clubs memorabilia.
Speaker 9: And so they saw that on the news. They called
Speaker 9: the lady.
Speaker 2: They he was just just.
Speaker 4: Just t People don't understand.
Speaker 2: And what what the.
Speaker 9: Passion for for the sport for your club man aided
Speaker 9: your callors in your heart man for a reason.
Speaker 1: How much? How much? That's very cool? How much Universitario

Speaker 1: woke him up to show the jersey. He's like, man,
Speaker 1: can you just put me back on? Can you put
Speaker 1: me back in the sofa? You woke my ass up
Speaker 1: to show that. But as always, we we are a
Speaker 1: we are a guardian. We are a guardian promoting zone
Speaker 1: and anytime that that the pups make their way on
Speaker 1: it is always approved by the way the rowdy man.
Speaker 1: Since the boss is now headed to work, rowdy man
Speaker 1: is under his table. Yeah, and he's just like yeah, whatever,
Speaker 1: he's out. He's just like yeah, I mean, that's his
Speaker 1: standard position what he does. He'll be under He'll be
Speaker 1: under his table looking at the entry way to the office,
Speaker 1: being the guardian and protector that he is. So if
Speaker 1: someone that he doesn't know, or if he hears a noise,
Speaker 1: he's out like a shot down the hall. He's out
Speaker 1: the door and he's making sure that everything is okay.
Speaker 1: Uh So, anytime anytime that we get to show our
Speaker 1: our guardians and our friends, we that is always going
Speaker 1: to be the case. My other question, uh for you
Speaker 1: has to do with what you're calling this weekend because
Speaker 1: for those on Gold TV, uh that to get to
Speaker 1: watch you on Gold TV and everybody that we are
Speaker 1: trying to get to get Finaates, f NTZ dot co
Speaker 1: slash Soccer down here. That way you help out us,
Speaker 1: You help out Finaates, you get to hear and hang
Speaker 1: out with our man Nino here. What is the schedule
Speaker 1: this weekend for you?
Speaker 9: We're gonna gonta light schedule this week and we got
Speaker 9: two games on sun on Saturday and two games on Sunday.
Speaker 9: Of course, we got the big the big dogs from
Speaker 9: Portugal got the the Picas game on Saturday, it's at
Speaker 9: three thirty pm eastertime versus the Jubi Senti. Then we
Speaker 9: got the U one Championship with wonder Rest versus Danubio.
Speaker 9: Danube's the only leader. This funny perfect in the un Championship.
Speaker 9: I'm all for that game. And then on Sunday, Porto
Speaker 9: versus the Dragons. Right, guys, get I was mentioned strikers, right,
Speaker 9: but I also put to that striker spanning at twenty
Speaker 9: three years.
Speaker 4: Old, Samuel or morod On.
Speaker 6: Uh huh, you guys score three.
Speaker 4: Goals in the last hundred and twelve minutes.
Speaker 1: Yoah, Yeah, we have been keeping an eye on I'm
Speaker 1: Morodeon and finding out what he's going to be like
Speaker 1: because the paycheck will exist for I'm Alredyon coming up
Speaker 1: in short order. All right, last half hour of the show.
Speaker 1: We know what that means. That means we add Seattle
Speaker 1: to the mix. I run a fancy open, we turn
Speaker 1: it into a three way dance with a handoff. I
Speaker 1: imagine today that the question is going to be the
Speaker 1: conversation is going to be suder Americana, Roberta Doors. We'll
Speaker 1: get into that coming up. So let me hit the
Speaker 1: fancy open. We'll bring in Seattle. It'll be Atlanta, Peru
Speaker 1: and Seattle in the final half hour here of the
Speaker 1: show with our buddy Nico Moreno. And so of course
Speaker 1: I promoted all and I'm sitting here looking and it's like,
Speaker 1: where's my open? I can't find my open to to
Speaker 1: hit it?
Speaker 6: All?
Speaker 1: Right, Here we go, found the open, fancy open. Here
Speaker 1: we go. H that time beat two three four, It
Speaker 1: is Nino. It is Nico and it is Nelson. That's
Speaker 1: where we are here for the final half hour, starting
Speaker 1: with the handoff. What Nino, what did you want to
Speaker 1: talk about with Nico this week? Did you want to
Speaker 1: do Alberta DRS and sit Americana. Where'd you want to go?
Speaker 9: Yeah, well we'll go Libertodores they will have Unfortunately there
Speaker 9: there's no there's no Colombian teams in the on the picture,
Speaker 9: neither Prubians, so it'll be it'll be nice nice to
Speaker 9: see that and anytime soon then, But Nico, who do
Speaker 9: you think you can make a run next year for
Speaker 9: a for A for the for the Columbia League in
Speaker 9: the company.
Speaker 6: Or the oh man, that's tough man. The Colombian league
Speaker 6: has been in such a disarray as of late. Actually, my.
Speaker 13: Team of Colombia Atlantic National, they're usually at the top
Speaker 13: of all of these sort of tournaments. I'm not used
Speaker 13: to watching as where Athletico National is not a protagonist.
Speaker 13: On Junior was the last one to like really be
Speaker 13: any sort of competition this year, so it's been a
Speaker 13: difficult one. I like National either way, not just because
Speaker 13: I'm it's my team, uh, but I feel like it's
Speaker 13: one that you're starting to get a group of players
Speaker 13: both young and experienced. They're not going the Klieway, which
Speaker 13: is going way older tory to recycle all the old
Speaker 13: talent that you know, the league has had. So yeah, yeah,
Speaker 13: So I think Nationalist is a team that hopefully can
Speaker 13: get back to its roots of winning and begin to
Speaker 13: mold more players, not just in this sort of tournament,
Speaker 13: but to pass them on to Europe, which is something
Speaker 13: that's pretty particular for plenty.
Speaker 1: All right, that's the handoff as we go through sud Americana,
Speaker 1: we go through Libertadors, and we even talked a little
Speaker 1: bit about what's going on with with Nino and his
Speaker 1: Columbus Ohio perimeter tattoo. We'll get into that with cooking
Speaker 1: up in just a little bit. Nino, as always, my friend.
Speaker 1: Great to have you for the first half hour of
Speaker 1: the power Hour here on Thursday when we go fully loaded.
Speaker 1: Be safe, Make sure that the Boss, your your lead
Speaker 1: security agent, continues to nap wearing his Universit Tario jersey
Speaker 1: on the sofa behind you. Do not be a stranger.
Speaker 1: We will catch up with you next week, and anytime
Speaker 1: you want to crash, you know you can crash.
Speaker 4: I think it's in my Scotch. Always a pleasure to
Speaker 4: all see you next time.
Speaker 1: You got it, Love you be safe and we will
Speaker 1: catch up soon. All right, And now Nino's gonna go
Speaker 1: into the green room. What Nino does when we sign off.
Speaker 1: After the handoff, he listens in the green room. He
Speaker 1: doesn't just hang up. I mean what he'll do. He'll
Speaker 1: sit there and he'll listen to us talk about Major
Speaker 1: League Soccer. Always got the rave greenout? Which cup two
Speaker 1: or three?
Speaker 6: This is two baby two? Absolutely?
Speaker 1: Uh So he'll he'll kind of hang out in the
Speaker 1: green room and he'll react to what you and I
Speaker 1: are talking about. Literally, there'll be times where he'll fall
Speaker 1: out of his chair and I can see it in
Speaker 1: the green room. So we have our we have our
Speaker 1: South American live audience falling out of their chairs as
Speaker 1: we go through things. We started to show off this
Speaker 1: morning talking about the three championship games that happened last night,
Speaker 1: with what happened in Campeona's Cup, with what happened in
Speaker 1: the can champ and with what happened in Open Cup.
Speaker 1: Where do you want to start when it comes to
Speaker 1: those three.
Speaker 13: Well, I watched two of the three, so I would
Speaker 13: love to start with Open Cup and then maybe we
Speaker 13: can put into moving to compelling His Cup after that.
Speaker 1: All right, So it was three to one. Kai Kamara
Speaker 1: obviously with the quote of the day. After the match
Speaker 1: was over, he said Don was here, meaning Don Garber.
Speaker 1: I saw him, he was on the podium. He gave
Speaker 1: me a medal. So just get him in here and
Speaker 1: make sure they don't take MLS away from this. This
Speaker 1: is amazing. You know, this is American soccer right here.
Speaker 1: Don't take away from our history. End quote. So Kai
Speaker 1: Kamara scores. Kai who is I think seventy two years
Speaker 1: old and still is incredibly productive from cal State University.
Speaker 1: He knows what the American soccer footprint is. He knows
Speaker 1: what it means to be in all these different competitions
Speaker 1: and all these different locations. He gets a an oh,
Speaker 1: he gets an Open Cup medal. It's something that LAFC,
Speaker 1: despite their negative nature of playing these days, they fight
Speaker 1: through it and still end up winning titles. Olivier Jerroux
Speaker 1: was all happy and everything, most handsome man and Major
Speaker 1: League Soccer scored last night. I don't see I see
Speaker 1: this as adding hardware. But I don't see this for
Speaker 1: LAFC as something where they will open up things offensively.
Speaker 1: I still think that they're going to be defensive first
Speaker 1: and frustrate everybody except for Steve Charundelo, who I will maintain.
Speaker 1: Ever since they got bumped out of Conkycap Champions League,
Speaker 1: when they were all offensive and they had Carlos Vela
Speaker 1: and all the stars. Ever since then, Steve Charundelo has
Speaker 1: pulled back offensively. He's wanted to make sure that the
Speaker 1: that the golf team is in the golf cart, and
Speaker 1: he's got the governor on it, and I think that
Speaker 1: he's restricting the talent that's there. It's almost like pounce
Speaker 1: and create instead of create and pounds. Does that make sense?
Speaker 6: It does?
Speaker 1: It does?
Speaker 6: However, I feel like it if he's built a team that.
Speaker 13: Can't benefit from that sort of play, then I think
Speaker 13: it's all good and well.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 6: I mean, I've always been like you, right, kind of this.
Speaker 13: Purist of beautiful soccer, and I want to see you
Speaker 13: hold the ball, and I want to see you use
Speaker 13: the width of the field, and I want to see
Speaker 13: a little bit of flair in some connection, some link
Speaker 13: up play.
Speaker 6: But Steve yeah, I think he saw himself in some situations.
Speaker 13: I mean, you don't lose four finals and don't try
Speaker 13: to change things up. And throughout that time he has
Speaker 13: been a coach that would rather play counter soccer and
Speaker 13: rather give you the ball and like you said, not create,
Speaker 13: but maybe just leive off your mistakes. We're gonna press
Speaker 13: the ball, We're gonna go and transition, and I think
Speaker 13: he's built a team for it, right, I mean, the
Speaker 13: wing play is elite is.
Speaker 6: Uh, it doesn't matter which way you go, you go bwanga,
Speaker 6: you go bug with, you go kick. You got guys
Speaker 6: that can run perfectly. When it comes to a transition moment.
Speaker 13: You have a a holding mid field that is quick
Speaker 13: distributing the ball, that is going to try as much
Speaker 13: as they can at delivering the uh switch of player
Speaker 13: or switching the point of attack whenever it's necessary, whenever
Speaker 13: you see the space on the other side.
Speaker 6: So because of that, I don't hate it.
Speaker 13: And I thought that in this particular final they struggled
Speaker 13: a little bit because Peter Vermis, in a very Peter
Speaker 13: Vermes type of situation, he gave l a f C
Speaker 13: the ball and he was very cautious and yes, a
Speaker 13: lot of people were criticizing Peter for.
Speaker 6: Looking a freight in the first half, and I think
Speaker 6: that's outrageous, man. I mean, you're playing LA f C.
Speaker 13: If I'm going to go play you open and I'm
Speaker 13: going to try to his beat you out what you're
Speaker 13: good at, I'm not gonna go anywhere. And I thought
Speaker 13: that that's why this game was as even as it
Speaker 13: was throughout the first ninety. I thought that, uh, Peter
Speaker 13: did some some some great things, right. I mean he
Speaker 13: really limited situations even with Dennis Banga did look like
Speaker 13: Dennis Blanca votes I'll tell you that.
Speaker 6: He mean, he was all over.
Speaker 13: He was a handful uh speed, I'm gonna come right
Speaker 13: at you, clearly taking advantage of Shelton, a non defensive
Speaker 13: minded player has a right back.
Speaker 6: And you saw Kay later on do the same.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 6: But uh, Dennis Banca thought was on point.
Speaker 13: I thought, jiu has this was the best game I've
Speaker 13: seen him play, uh since he started with LA f C,
Speaker 13: obviously with l A f C and MLS. Please don't
Speaker 13: come at me. The best game I've ever seen him play,
Speaker 13: I mean with this particular team. And I thought that
Speaker 13: the speed that Peter wanted to see out of that
Speaker 13: that midfield, out of their senate defensive midfielders, I thought
Speaker 13: created some problems at times for LAFC. So it was
Speaker 13: a great game and Kai Kamara, you gotta just applaud
Speaker 13: the man. Uh, it's so effortless for him that that
Speaker 13: that third goal is the final punch that completely knocked
Speaker 13: out Sporting in the City.
Speaker 6: It was two to one.
Speaker 13: It could have still been tied up, it could have
Speaker 13: been equaled at some point. But Kai Kamara, the way
Speaker 13: he literally jogs to the eighteen, He's looking at Denny's
Speaker 13: wangat the entire time Denny Wang is doing his thing
Speaker 13: on the side. He continues to just lightly jog. He
Speaker 13: sees that Shelton has no idea he is right behind him.
Speaker 13: And when then he puts that ball inside with good
Speaker 13: pace at the right spot, he just runs right in
Speaker 13: front of Shelton and puts the ball away effortless.
Speaker 6: And that's what he's been doing for this team.
Speaker 13: And that's credit to Charndolo for being able to use
Speaker 13: a guy like him with his experience with his IQ
Speaker 13: and they deservingly won that Open Cup.
Speaker 6: But I do want to credit Sporting.
Speaker 13: Kansas City for making it hard for taking it to
Speaker 13: ot for not allowing themselves to just get beat down
Speaker 13: by l AFC. Tommy is a guy that he's always
Speaker 13: been productive. He's done it all for Sporting kind the City.
Speaker 13: He's been in the back line, he's been on a
Speaker 13: plane out wide, he's played middle. In this one he
Speaker 13: played as as a cam and and I thought he
Speaker 13: did it well. It was nice to see him in
Speaker 13: shallowy uh put that goal for Sporting Kansas City. But
Speaker 13: LAOC was just too much. At the end of the day,
Speaker 13: LAFC wanted it. They you said in their faces. You
Speaker 13: saw it in the celebration. They want to get that
Speaker 13: rust off being or that stigma of being the best,
Speaker 13: second best after finals.
Speaker 1: That's never the best, never to win until two more
Speaker 1: questions about LAFC, and to your point about Sporting. If
Speaker 1: I'm Peter Vermes in that matchup, you're on the road,
Speaker 1: You're going up against the team that is better than you.
Speaker 1: Why not let them have the ball? Why not let
Speaker 1: them It's almost like Vermes wants to rope adope you
Speaker 1: and literally it's like, all right, you can have the ball.
Speaker 1: You you expand you expend, you spend all of your energy.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna sit here and I'm gonna wait. I saw.
Speaker 1: I mean for a philosophy on a road game against
Speaker 1: a team that is better than you, I could definitely see. Look,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna rope adope your ball. You go ahead, and
Speaker 1: you tire yourself out and I'll take advantage of it late.
Speaker 1: I can understand why Peter would do something like this
Speaker 1: for the first hour many minutes. I get that completely.
Speaker 6: Yeah, And he said it.
Speaker 13: I don't know if it was after the get, but
Speaker 13: he said, you know, I knew they were going to
Speaker 13: come at us with everything they had within the first
Speaker 13: twenty minutes.
Speaker 6: So he had to hold on.
Speaker 13: He had to do certain things, and we did that.
Speaker 13: Holding on, Polito gets a great chance in front of goal.
Speaker 13: And now Polito is a guy that he needs to
Speaker 13: put those type goes away. And we're talking about a
Speaker 13: whole different ballgame, right, And that's been Sporting.
Speaker 6: Kansas City's season in a nutshell, right.
Speaker 13: It's just the fact that their top players are not
Speaker 13: a top form right now, and guys like shallow Wie
Speaker 13: and Polito, even Russell, who obviously is at the end
Speaker 13: of his career already or at least not in his prime.
Speaker 13: They're starting to see a little bit of problems. But
Speaker 13: I thought that the strategy was put on right. I
Speaker 13: thought that they played the game that they that was
Speaker 13: going to give him the best chance to win. And again,
Speaker 13: anytime that you take LAOC to overtime with the limitations,
Speaker 13: the problems you've had all season, I mean, that's created
Speaker 13: to Peter.
Speaker 1: How did Carlos How does Carlos Vail fit under the salary?
Speaker 2: Kept?
Speaker 1: Did they just give him like an Albertson's gift card
Speaker 1: or something for for stuff? I mean literally, is it
Speaker 1: like and Albertson's gift cards and you know, maybe a
Speaker 1: lifetime a lifetime gift card to in and out Burger?
Speaker 1: How did this come down? How did this fit?
Speaker 6: That's a great question. Uh. I know that they have room.
Speaker 1: It wasn't much, okay, and that and that was my
Speaker 1: biggest thing. It's like, you know, how creative are they?
Speaker 1: Did they actually have room? Was it a gift cards
Speaker 1: kind of a thing? What is the what was working
Speaker 1: with here?
Speaker 13: All I know is that they they did have room
Speaker 13: both in roster and his salary, and that number. I'm
Speaker 13: unaware of what that is because I've read a couple
Speaker 13: of different reports, and I don't want to give you
Speaker 13: a wrong number, but there was room for it.
Speaker 6: Whether whether that number is the same number.
Speaker 13: That you know they told us they gave Gary Bale
Speaker 13: at one point, and what they're saying that they're giving Louise,
Speaker 13: I'm not sure what's behind the scenes if they do
Speaker 13: get that in and out lifetime warranty, you know, if
Speaker 13: they get a free pass or their entire family to
Speaker 13: hit up Disneyland, I don't know, but at the end
Speaker 13: of the day, there's gotta be something.
Speaker 6: Else in line. But you know, look the Corlins build.
Speaker 13: I think it's interesting. Man, it's more of a celebration
Speaker 13: to him. I think it's just like a farewell tour.
Speaker 13: I love the way Carlos kind of tamed all expectations. Man,
Speaker 13: I'm not ready to play in any team. I'm just
Speaker 13: here just to help the squad right probably later down
Speaker 13: the road, and I think that's what it's gonna be.
Speaker 6: He's gonna be training, he's gonna be with the guys.
Speaker 6: He's gonna enjoy of.
Speaker 13: Whatever run LAFC makes this season, and whenever his number
Speaker 13: is called, to be ready to play.
Speaker 6: Fifteen twenty minutes.
Speaker 13: Maybe I don't know if he'll get a start, but
Speaker 13: if he does, he's gonna have to get used to
Speaker 13: all the changes that happened with his offense. He's gonna
Speaker 13: have to get his body right, and he lets you
Speaker 13: know already that he his But it's not right to
Speaker 13: start or to play any minutes at this point in time,
Speaker 13: So I think it's more of.
Speaker 6: A celebration to a player that was great. Look, I
Speaker 6: kind of envy them.
Speaker 13: I would love to see a Nico Letodero final tour
Speaker 13: in the Club World Cup next year, but she's not
Speaker 13: gonna happen. But I thought that it was a cool,
Speaker 13: interesting thing. I love that Torrenton ended up even answering
Speaker 13: some questions in Spanish about the decision to bring back
Speaker 13: a player as important as Carlos Vela. But in terms
Speaker 13: of the salary cap, I'm sure they did some some
Speaker 13: magic tricks because I don't know how he fits.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Ki bail Reese, Jeru Veila, there's some creative financing
Speaker 1: going on here with But it was weird.
Speaker 13: If this was going to be the end game, why
Speaker 13: didn't Carlos just accept whatever it is that was negotiated
Speaker 13: before I mean it's a little bit odd.
Speaker 6: I'm not gonna lie to you that part.
Speaker 13: I like to see the best of the novel of
Speaker 13: the series of the Gesture, but it is a bit
Speaker 13: of a head scratcher of why you would you decide
Speaker 13: to sit for six months and then come back and
Speaker 13: take pennies underd dollar.
Speaker 1: At the end of the day, yep can Champ. Vancouver
Speaker 1: won in PKS and they win the can Champ, so
Speaker 1: they get their way into the concor CAF Hemisphere Extravaganza.
Speaker 1: Columbus and Cluba Medica go to PKS tied after ninety
Speaker 1: go to PKS. Clobe America wins at five to four.
Speaker 1: We were talking about it with Nino to begin this hour,
Speaker 1: and he thinks that it might be one more year
Speaker 1: after this one before Wilford Nanci and Columbus crew and
Speaker 1: Jimmy Haslam are given the offer that they can refuse
Speaker 1: to have Wilfrid he go overseas and manage someplace and
Speaker 1: have the chance to go home. Do you get the
Speaker 1: sense that Wilfred is happy with the resources he's getting
Speaker 1: with the Haslums in Columbus and would stay longer than that,
Speaker 1: or is he looking for larger frontiers.
Speaker 13: I think he's happy there, I think, and I don't
Speaker 13: know Wilfred like this, but if I was to paint
Speaker 13: a picture of what I think goes on in that
Speaker 13: big brain of his, I think that he likes what
Speaker 13: he has right now.
Speaker 6: He has the ability to mold young players.
Speaker 13: He has older resources that he can He has a
Speaker 13: team of brilliant players and you saw it in the play.
Speaker 13: We'll get into that in a little bit that he
Speaker 13: can work with. So he's all good right now. But
Speaker 13: in soccer things tend to change day to day. So
Speaker 13: I'm looking at Kucho, I'm looking at how much he's making.
Speaker 13: I know he's looking around the league. I know he
Speaker 13: has still time on his contract, but there's gonna be
Speaker 13: a point where he's gonna be like, hey man, I'm
Speaker 13: over here dominating in MLS and I'm not getting dominating money.
Speaker 13: I look around the league and even you know, this
Speaker 13: current contract over all redeas is still above mine. And
Speaker 13: I think Evander makes more than I do. And I think,
Speaker 13: you know, all these players that are not couch or
Speaker 13: making more than I do.
Speaker 6: I need to get a race.
Speaker 13: So how does management make sure that a guy that
Speaker 13: is important as Coucher stays and that keeps Wilfred happy there.
Speaker 13: We'll see, But I feel like the infrastructure of Columbus
Speaker 13: and what they've been able to do, even moving on
Speaker 13: from certain front of his personalities, and they've been able
Speaker 13: to keep that theory and that soccer module. I think
Speaker 13: Wilfrid is fine. And I don't think he's dying to
Speaker 13: get to Europe. I'm not sure that's what I see
Speaker 13: when he when he talks. So I think he's happy
Speaker 13: there as long as things continue to be this saying,
Speaker 13: I feel like Wilford smart enough that he's not in
Speaker 13: any type of rush to put himself in a situation
Speaker 13: that might not just be advantageous to him but to
Speaker 13: his career. I mean, at this point, continue to win,
Speaker 13: continue to get the benefit of being the top team
Speaker 13: in MLS, and continue to be that guy that everybody
Speaker 13: looks up to when he comes to the way you play,
Speaker 13: the way that you've managed the locker room, all of
Speaker 13: these things, and then later on down the road, then
Speaker 13: you could go ahead and make that pussure. So if
Speaker 13: I have to say whether he wants to stay or not,
Speaker 13: I think for right now and at least for a
Speaker 13: couple of years he'd want to stay in MLS.
Speaker 1: Kucho to your point, and I found the salary figures
Speaker 1: courtesy of our friends at the MLSPA. Kucho's base is
Speaker 1: two point six guaranteed comp just under two point nine.
Speaker 1: Some of the other heavy hitters in Columbus nagby one
Speaker 1: point four base, one point five to four guaranteed, Rossi
Speaker 1: two point six seven five base guaranteed, three point three
Speaker 1: three million, three hundred and seventy six and twenty seven dollars.
Speaker 1: That's Rossi guaranteed. And those are the only ones that
Speaker 1: are into seventh those seven figure players on Columbus. It's
Speaker 1: just those three that are making more than a million
Speaker 1: dollars a season, those three guys, and Kuco right now
Speaker 1: is second at two point six and two point eight
Speaker 1: eighty six behind Diego Rossi on that roster.
Speaker 13: Yeah, no, absolutely, And compared to what Wilfred was coming from,
Speaker 13: I mean that that's gotta feel pretty good.
Speaker 6: And I do expect this team to go and get
Speaker 6: more people.
Speaker 13: And when I saw guys like Juwan Jones come in
Speaker 13: for whatever money they did, that looked like a move.
Speaker 13: Dad Wilford said I need that guy. I want that guy,
Speaker 13: and they got him that guy. So I'm not really
Speaker 13: of the thought that he needs a big wallet and
Speaker 13: just once undeniable money like Atlanta or Miami. I just
Speaker 13: think that he wants the guys he wants, and as
Speaker 13: long as you provide him those players, he's going to
Speaker 13: be fine. And again, as long as you give him
Speaker 13: the guys that have made a difference on the field
Speaker 13: and off the field, ROSSI all those big those big
Speaker 13: name players NA me and keep them with those sort
Speaker 13: of resources, I think he's gonna be fine.
Speaker 1: Right now Patrick Shelty, who's probably going to be getting
Speaker 1: a big raise. His comp right now full is one
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty thousand dollars, so that is going to
Speaker 1: be going that direction with a Shelty. At the very least.
Speaker 6: How much is Farsi making.
Speaker 1: Mo Farsi According to the MLS players Salary grouping, he's
Speaker 1: three point fifty base three eighty guaranteed.
Speaker 6: They've just done such a good job with that.
Speaker 13: I mean, when you look at those players and you
Speaker 13: look at the talent level, at some point maybe this
Speaker 13: is one of those situations where it's the perfect moment
Speaker 13: for the team because you got all of these upcoming
Speaker 13: players that haven't really reached top salaries. But when you
Speaker 13: look at Farsi Morera, when you look at Christian Ramirez
Speaker 13: and what he's making, again, even Kucho Kutcha could be
Speaker 13: asking for double what he's making, but he came in
Speaker 13: at this specific price in time. Would you look at
Speaker 13: duwe Jones, would you look at Matan? I mean, these
Speaker 13: are quality players that have been consistent for this team,
Speaker 13: and yet they're at a very low salary. So just
Speaker 13: credit to that front office and what they've been able
Speaker 13: to do the way they've been able to do it.
Speaker 1: They're all making mid six figures. To answer the names
Speaker 1: that you mentioned, Christian Ramirez full compensation just under five
Speaker 1: hundred thousand. We mentioned Chelte right now, he's at one
Speaker 1: sixty six oh three. He's going to get a big raise,
Speaker 1: and a big ass raise is what he's going to
Speaker 1: be getting. Let's see Morera's at eight hundred thousand base
Speaker 1: eight eighty two guaranteed, Maton coming in from his time
Speaker 1: with NYCFC and other places. Four to fifty base for
Speaker 1: eighty three and a quarter is guaranteed. And we mentioned
Speaker 1: Farsi Shaberco is at five point fifty three and a
Speaker 1: quarter guaranteed, Rudy Camacho five point fifty one total guaranteed,
Speaker 1: and Multi Amensen just under four hundred thousand guaranteed. So
Speaker 1: there's a lot of six figure dudes there, but they're
Speaker 1: all mid six figure dudes, and so there's a good
Speaker 1: massaging that's been going on with salaries. In the salary cap.
Speaker 1: You know what time it is, Oh, it is cliffhanger Ton.
Speaker 1: It is Cliffhanger time. So we're gonna run through the
Speaker 1: games and if there's a game you want to talk
Speaker 1: about total number, we'll do it. Uh, seven thirty starts
Speaker 1: seven forty actually, so seven thirty in the book seven
Speaker 1: forty on Apple TV CF Montreal San Jose CF Montreal
Speaker 1: favored at Stott Suputo to minus one nineteen DC and
Speaker 1: Crew Crewe is a road favorite. Even after last night,
Speaker 1: there's still a road favorite at the plus one thirty three.
Speaker 1: DC United a plus one seventy five. The draw is
Speaker 1: a plus two seventy seven. Interesting there, coming off a
Speaker 1: midweek game with Crew having to go to DC. I
Speaker 1: thought that was intriguing. What's the what the draw to
Speaker 1: seventy seven.
Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, I'd probably go with a draw there. Maybe
Speaker 13: Columbus goes and just manages this game DC United. If anything,
Speaker 13: they can't create some problems for that three man back line,
Speaker 13: uh specifically with their crosses.
Speaker 6: I thought that.
Speaker 13: Yesterday they put themselves in some bad situations. I mean
Speaker 13: that goal by Novella that is a new signing for
Speaker 13: COPAM for Club America from Chile.
Speaker 6: Very good, very fast.
Speaker 13: It happens in a little bit of a breakdown where
Speaker 13: your lines are just too high, you're pressing. They try
Speaker 13: to press, and they failed, not by anything that they
Speaker 13: didn't do, but credit to Club America. And all of
Speaker 13: a sudden, you got a guy running in front, right
Speaker 13: at your goal and he puts that one away. Uh
Speaker 13: so yeah, I think that might be a situation in which,
Speaker 13: uh maybe Columbus gets a draw.
Speaker 1: All right, other matchups as we roll, here we go.
Speaker 1: It is I'm gonna save Atlanta, Philly and Seattle Houston
Speaker 1: to the end. It is FC Cincinnati LAFC. FC Cincinnati
Speaker 1: at TQL minus one zero four draws a plus two
Speaker 1: eighty one. LAFC coming out off of last night at
Speaker 1: home flying to Cincinnati is a plus two point fifty.
Speaker 6: Wow. Uh huh wow, that's uh, that's.
Speaker 9: Uh.
Speaker 6: What's the goals on this one?
Speaker 1: All right? So let's see what direction we go here.
Speaker 1: So FC Cincinnati and LAFC we're gonna go over under
Speaker 1: and once again, this is courtesy of our friends in
Speaker 1: the composite at odds portal two and a half a
Speaker 1: minus one eighty three three and a half a plus
Speaker 1: one thirty six. So that's where it changes three and
Speaker 1: a half at plus one thirty six. Under three and
Speaker 1: a half is a minus one seventy five.
Speaker 6: Wow.
Speaker 13: Now, uh, if I had to do this game, because
Speaker 13: I feel like it's gonna be hard to decipher because
Speaker 13: of all the factors.
Speaker 6: The just mentioned.
Speaker 13: Because Cincinnati within themselves have being not the Cincinnati of old,
Speaker 13: I could see a two to two draw in this one.
Speaker 6: And let me say that we did pretty.
Speaker 13: Good last week on the goals differentials, and if it
Speaker 13: wasn't because Atlanta messed me up, we put it would
Speaker 13: have got in Atlanta as well.
Speaker 6: But we did pretty well.
Speaker 13: So I'm gonna go three and a half in this one.
Speaker 13: I'm gonna take the draw for a two to two
Speaker 13: between Cincinnati and LFC.
Speaker 1: All right. So we'll go two two. Draw, by the way,
Speaker 1: over at four is a plus two thirty nine. Under
Speaker 1: four is a minus three thirty five. Since you punched
Speaker 1: that number, figured we'd go there.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Messi and Friends that the erector said are going to
Speaker 1: be waiting for Charlotte to try to get out of
Speaker 1: this mess. My guess said, Charlotte's gonna fly out of
Speaker 1: Helene as soon as they can. Messi and Friends of
Speaker 1: minus one ninety two. Charlotte has only won twice I
Speaker 1: think since July fourth. So Charlotte a plus four thirty three,
Speaker 1: Your draws a plus three seventy three. New England flat
Speaker 1: out even money plus one hundred at home hosting Nashville,
Speaker 1: Nashville's a plus two fifty and your draw is a
Speaker 1: plus two sixty three. Intrigue, Give me Nashville.
Speaker 6: Man, give me Nashville.
Speaker 1: A plus two feet give me Nashville. I mean, that's
Speaker 1: those those numbers are just odd, you.
Speaker 13: Know they are odd, and that I like those numbers
Speaker 13: look allowed me to use your platform to just stuck
Speaker 13: cart of this hill.
Speaker 6: That it is not the way that you come out
Speaker 6: a defender.
Speaker 13: That's the thing between him and Aviriaga and the way
Speaker 13: he pushed them, the way he came out him, the
Speaker 13: whole thing.
Speaker 6: Caleb called it embarrassing. It was embarrassing.
Speaker 13: But Caleb, I mean, but Carlos Hill, as the face
Speaker 13: of the franchise, the best player, he cannot come out
Speaker 13: of having a reaga like that, regardless of whether he
Speaker 13: was having a terrible game or not.
Speaker 6: That's not here nor there. That's not leadership. Man.
Speaker 13: You can't come at your player like that and dog
Speaker 13: them right in front of everybody as you're walking towards
Speaker 13: the tunnel in the locker room. Keep it in the
Speaker 13: locker room. I'm doing it in front of everybody. Come on,
Speaker 13: I think that New England imploded last game. They allowed
Speaker 13: Charlotte to put four on you. That's Charlotte Baby.
Speaker 2: Four on you.
Speaker 13: So I think that in this one, with all of
Speaker 13: the bad vibes, all of the problems, Dylan Borrero suspended
Speaker 13: all the things that happen New England. I think Nashville
Speaker 13: is a good pick this week.
Speaker 1: All right, We'll go from there to Hudson River Red
Speaker 1: Bulls hosting New York City Red Bulls A plus one
Speaker 1: twelve draws A plus two sixty seven and NYCFC on
Speaker 1: the road crossing over the rivers a plus two nineteen.
Speaker 13: That's a draw, baby, that's a drawing. That's a safe
Speaker 13: draw on my regard. And again, thank you Red Bulls
Speaker 13: for ruining my Atlanta pick. That one was tough or
Speaker 13: or Atlanta uh ruined in my my pick on that
Speaker 13: one because that that looked good that that Atlanta was
Speaker 13: gonna take that game and they didn't.
Speaker 6: Uh, But yeah, I think it's gonna be a draw.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 13: New York City has been interesting, man, because they have
Speaker 13: a lot of quality players.
Speaker 9: Uh.
Speaker 13: They seem to at least have gotten the nine situations situated,
Speaker 13: but they still seem to have issues managing games in general.
Speaker 13: They played well or actually Miami didn't play well and
Speaker 13: they were able to get a drug against Miami. But
Speaker 13: I think that there are things with New York City
Speaker 13: have seed that can change in the future. But between
Speaker 13: these two teams, I think a draw is pretty safe.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think you're I think you're spot on. We're
Speaker 1: gonna save Philly in Atlanta, We're gonna save Seattle and
Speaker 1: Houston for the end. Austin hosting rs L Austin Favorite
Speaker 1: Home at Q two at A plus one thirty three
Speaker 1: RSL plus one eighty three, Chicago hosting Toronto at a
Speaker 1: minus one oh two, obviously looking at having Toronto traveling
Speaker 1: to Vancouver then having to come back and play in
Speaker 1: Chicago on the weekend. Toronto's a plus two to fifty
Speaker 1: seven draws A plus two sixty six. If the Purple
Speaker 1: team can get out of Central Florida, they're supposed to
Speaker 1: play in Dallas FC. Dallas a plus one thirty three,
Speaker 1: draws A plus two and a half, and Orlando City
Speaker 1: is a plus one ninety two. LUN's hosting Rapids at
Speaker 1: a minus one oh one, Colorado a plus two thirty four,
Speaker 1: draws A plus two to ninety one. Battle of the Interstate.
Speaker 1: I always forget what interstate it is that links Saint
Speaker 1: Louis and Kansas City. All Caps a minus one twenty
Speaker 1: five and draws a plus three thirteen. Sportings a plus
Speaker 1: two eighty three, especially with what happened in the midweek,
Speaker 1: Sporting having to play one hundred and twenty minutes in
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, having to come back, you're playing on the
Speaker 1: road in Saint Louis, taking on City sc you're adult,
Speaker 1: and then Vancouver and Portland in Cascadia. Vancouver playing at
Speaker 1: home after the midweek winning in pks minus one oh
Speaker 1: nine against Portland. The draws of plus three twelve, Portland
Speaker 1: is a plus two thirty eight and so wow, really yeah.
Speaker 6: Wow, so let me get two one.
Speaker 13: I would definitely take Portland over Vancouver in this one,
Speaker 13: although Portland was another one that could have been real
Speaker 13: good for me last week and then it ended up
Speaker 13: being a draw. But they were there, they were there.
Speaker 13: We did get the goals on that one, by the way,
Speaker 13: But I'll take Portland on this one. And I want
Speaker 13: to see the goals on a FC Dallas and Orlando
Speaker 13: City because that's gonna be an interesting one.
Speaker 6: Look, f SE Dallas is not the FC Dallas of old.
Speaker 13: I think that in the non Nicostaves era they are
Speaker 13: not just more dangerous because of.
Speaker 6: The strugg sure of the play I do.
Speaker 13: I feel that they'd be more decisive, and of course
Speaker 13: the fact that they're getting Ferreira back and Belasco back.
Speaker 6: I mean, those players are so important. You saw that
Speaker 6: last week.
Speaker 13: I think that in this one, with another team that
Speaker 13: likes to get forward in Orlando City, there could be
Speaker 13: a lot of goals.
Speaker 1: Two and a half a minus one forty three and
Speaker 1: a half a plus one seventy four. So technically it
Speaker 1: changes three to a plus one nineteen. So three and
Speaker 1: a half. If you go two two, that's a plus
Speaker 1: one seventy four. If you take the over there, what
Speaker 1: four and a half four and a half four and
Speaker 1: a half is a plus three ninety four. So if
Speaker 1: you're looking at three two or four to one plus
Speaker 1: three ninety four.
Speaker 13: Give me the four and a half. I should have
Speaker 13: taken more fours and a half last week, and I didn't.
Speaker 13: We would have hit that Portland game. We would have
Speaker 13: hit the Columbus game. So this week I was thinking,
Speaker 13: I'm gonna go more four and a halfs. That's one
Speaker 13: of them. I'll take the four and a half. Orlando
Speaker 13: and FC.
Speaker 1: Dallas, David is asking if Sheltea is the generation Adidas
Speaker 1: are a homegrown. Shelty is on his option year that
Speaker 1: was renewed in his first three year deal, and so
Speaker 1: I'm efforting to figure out if he's a GA or
Speaker 1: if he's a homegrown product.
Speaker 6: I thought he was a home grown. Yeah, I think
Speaker 6: he's I'm almost I'm almost certain that he's a homegrown.
Speaker 1: All right, So We'll go with homegrown until evidence comes
Speaker 1: otherwise about Patrick Schulte. Okay, last two matchups on the board,
Speaker 1: Atlanta at Philadelphia Philadelphia minus one forty one in the
Speaker 1: playoff Chaos in the East. Your draws a plus three
Speaker 1: thirty Atlanta's a plus three seventeen, provided that they can
Speaker 1: get out of town.
Speaker 13: What do you think that's a tougher man, Atlanta. There's
Speaker 13: been such a headache for me, and Philadelphia has has
Speaker 13: bounced back. I could see why the numbers are what
Speaker 13: they are. I know you guys probably don't want to
Speaker 13: hear it, but I think another draw in the future
Speaker 13: of Atlanta is pretty.
Speaker 6: Pretty possible. I just think Atlanta has had so many.
Speaker 13: Woes defensively and just that moments in general not taken
Speaker 13: care of that the right moments. I know it's hard
Speaker 13: sometimes to play in front of the substitute teacher that
Speaker 13: you know he's not going to be the remaining teacher,
Speaker 13: but man, it's just it's tough sometimes to watch Atlanta.
Speaker 6: So yeah, man, I'll go with the drawing.
Speaker 1: Down, all right, And so let's wrap up with yours
Speaker 1: and your matchup is one of the late games on Saturday,
Speaker 1: hosting Dynamo. Seattle's minus one twenty three draws a plus
Speaker 1: two sixty eight. Houston is a plus three thirty. What
Speaker 1: say you made you laugh to start things out?
Speaker 6: Wow, I don't know why I like that three thirty man.
Speaker 1: Look.
Speaker 13: I think a draw is probably a safer bed. I
Speaker 13: think Seattle against San Jose went back to a lot
Speaker 13: of the problems that they've had all see.
Speaker 2: And.
Speaker 13: Houston is not an easy game to be He's Houston
Speaker 13: is not an easy team to break down. Houston has
Speaker 13: some quality experience midfielders, and without Joe Pablo and the
Speaker 13: fact that he's gonna be Josh Atensio and Ovid Bargains
Speaker 13: in the midfield, which both quality players. I just think
Speaker 13: that against Orlando, you need a little bit of those
Speaker 13: dark arts. You need a little bit of that experience.
Speaker 13: Play a little shoulder here, a little elbow there. I
Speaker 13: mean not that I'm trying to, uh, you know, encourage
Speaker 13: anybody from playing the game that way, but I feel
Speaker 13: like it's just gonna be a very physical game. I
Speaker 13: think Ponce can really give Seattle some issues because of
Speaker 13: the movement that he can have in the final third.
Speaker 6: Uh So I'm over here just moving it around.
Speaker 13: I think Houston wins it, and I think they win
Speaker 13: it by the minimum, by a one zero score in
Speaker 13: in in Seattle.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 13: And I hope I'm wrong, and I hope I don't
Speaker 13: get you know, canceled over here in Seattle. But I
Speaker 13: feel like Houston is equipped to give Seattle headaches and
Speaker 13: give Jordan Morris herricks and when there is no plan
Speaker 13: B by this Sounders team, when Jordan isn't scoring, I
Speaker 13: think that this one could go to Houston.
Speaker 1: All right. So that is the rundown of everything this
Speaker 1: week and this week's version of Cliffhanger. So what is
Speaker 1: going on with you in Pulsar Sports? On the soccer bar,
Speaker 1: I know that you've got probably about a half hour
Speaker 1: to catch your breath and head toward Cup number three.
Speaker 13: I do, so we got definitely a soccer bar. We
Speaker 13: are going to be talking about a lot more into
Speaker 13: depth to compel on this cup. What happened while went right?
Speaker 6: While went wrong? I thought it was a very exciting game.
Speaker 6: I thought it was entertaining. Regardless of what both of
Speaker 6: these teams are in the standings. At the end of
Speaker 6: the day, it's a battle of two countries. They played
Speaker 6: it that way, so we're gonna go into that.
Speaker 13: We're going to have a conversation with Danny Lava, another
Speaker 13: player that has been molded here in Seattle. He came
Speaker 13: out of the academy. He's very talented, but hasn't really
Speaker 13: broken out. He hasn't really had the ability to turn
Speaker 13: himself into this player that you know, we all think
Speaker 13: he can be at some point.
Speaker 6: So check that out.
Speaker 13: That's going to be both in Soccer Bar and Pulso Sports,
Speaker 13: and then we'll be at the training grounds at Providence
Speaker 13: and Swedish Clubhouse later on today, so check that out
Speaker 13: as well at Pullso.
Speaker 1: Sports mister Schmittzer's clubhouse. As always, it's great to have
Speaker 1: you on on Thursdays, my friend. Enjoy your second cup
Speaker 1: as your head toward your third. Be safe.
Speaker 6: Thank you, I appreciate it.
Speaker 13: Oh and by the way, we will also have a
Speaker 13: really good podcast with Jeremia O Shan that we'll be
Speaker 13: recording today. I don't know why he'll drop it, but
Speaker 13: it should be should be spicy. We're gonna be looking
Speaker 13: into the Sounder season where they're at Bryan Smetzer right now.
Speaker 6: The conversation is con ends at the end of the
Speaker 6: year you keep them? Do you move on?
Speaker 1: What do you do?
Speaker 13: Are you happy where they are? So check that one out.
Speaker 13: There's gonna be a spicy little podcast.
Speaker 1: There by the all right, as always, my friend, great
Speaker 1: to see you and great to hear from you, and
Speaker 1: have everything. May everything stick to the cards, May al
Speaker 1: the interviews work out well, and we will catch up
Speaker 1: with you next week. Always, great to see you, my friend.
Speaker 6: Thank you. Bos how a good one?
Speaker 1: All right, that's a Nico. So Nico's got Nico. We're
Speaker 1: like the beginning of his busy, busiest day of the week. Literally,
Speaker 1: it's like he comes on with us. He's he's taken
Speaker 1: the he's taken the kids to school, and then he
Speaker 1: comes on with us after racing it like Dylan Dylan had.
Speaker 1: Dylan takes his daughter to school and then he hops
Speaker 1: on with us after ten o'clock when he can if
Speaker 1: he's not having to do anything with Varsity Media or
Speaker 1: anything else family related. So Dylan comes on on Wednesdays
Speaker 1: after dropping off his daughter at school. Nico takes his
Speaker 1: kids to school and then he hops on with us
Speaker 1: at seven thirty in the morning. I'm traditionally that's when
Speaker 1: you know, maybe I'm awake maybe or just I'm not
Speaker 1: because I'm not alert, I'm not maybe awake. And then
Speaker 1: he comes on with us. Then he's got sound er
Speaker 1: at heart, and he's got pulso sports, soccer bar, all
Speaker 1: those kinds of things. And then his days off and
Speaker 1: run and he goes to Providence in Swedish to go
Speaker 1: catch up with mister Schmitzer's neighborhood and see what's going
Speaker 1: on there. Okay, we got news. We will get into
Speaker 1: the news of the day before we get out of here.
Speaker 1: Tropical storm warning, by the way, has been issued for
Speaker 1: the SDH home footprint. So biggest thing as always be safe,
Speaker 1: be safe, be safe tomorrow. If we have power, we'll
Speaker 1: do a show. If we don't have power, we'll let
Speaker 1: you know out on socials that we don't have power
Speaker 1: and can't do a show scheduled. Bart's gonna join us
Speaker 1: off the top, and I'm warning him of that. So
Speaker 1: Bart's gonna join us off the top because of refing
Speaker 1: down here moments and getting into the whole p K
Speaker 1: discussion as we had in the in the timeline, getting
Speaker 1: into the whole p K discuss and Bart had some
Speaker 1: roughing down here moments that he came across from the competitions.
Speaker 1: On Wednesday, we'll talk about that. He'll bat lead off.
Speaker 1: Then if our friends from Beyond Goals Entering are in
Speaker 1: a safe place, we can catch up with them. Then
Speaker 1: we've got weekend weep around patent pending, trademark coming center.
Speaker 1: Hopefully rather than later, we'll go through the weekend and
Speaker 1: try and figure out how Atlanta United is going to
Speaker 1: get from Atlanta to Philly. Might be the day of
Speaker 1: don't know, but right now, tomorrow is when Helene, who
Speaker 1: was going to hit land they're saying now as a
Speaker 1: Cat three and not a Cat four. Thursday night is
Speaker 1: when Helene is going to make landfall. So that means
Speaker 1: that Thursday overnight Friday morning is when we are supposed
Speaker 1: to get pounded here in the SDH footprint. If we
Speaker 1: got power, will do a show and get you ready
Speaker 1: for everything. But those are our burning questions. Art's going
Speaker 1: to bat lead off. If Beyond Goals Entering can be around,
Speaker 1: then we'll catch up with him at nine point thirty
Speaker 1: if they got power, and then we can whip around.
Speaker 1: And then if Jason has power, if he's dry, if
Speaker 1: the team isn't leaving, and I would imagine that the
Speaker 1: team might be leaving earlier than normal because of the
Speaker 1: travel issues. So tonight tropical storm conditions, possible heavy rain
Speaker 1: early remaining cloudy with a shower and thunderstorm or two
Speaker 1: overnight Tomorrow am rain and wind. Saturday mostly cloudy in
Speaker 1: the highest seventy five. So and then we get into
Speaker 1: the eighties and the sixties. So this will take our
Speaker 1: the rest of our summer weather away as of the
Speaker 1: twenty first, and so we will be looking at everything
Speaker 1: going on tomorrow. Like I said, if we got power,
Speaker 1: we're doing a show that's the rundown for tomorrow. And
Speaker 1: thank you, by the way, Wiley, thank you for making
Speaker 1: reminding me us the I seventy series, because I sure
Speaker 1: as hell couldn't remember it. Okay, Hi to everybody. We
Speaker 1: got news, gossip, beruomer and in you. I don't want
Speaker 1: to watch today before we get out of here. Morning,

Speaker 1: there was. We will create one in the lottery, will
Speaker 1: create one Labertador's Champ Triple C, Champs Souit Americana and
Speaker 1: the League's Cup winner. That'd be tremendous. By the way,
Speaker 1: habit at Mercedes Been Stadium eighty thousand each time out
Speaker 1: Morning David, David's like I can only hope as a
Speaker 1: fan of another Eastern Conference team that has them, starts
Speaker 1: treating the Crew like his other properties, like the Browns,
Speaker 1: although we refer to them as the clowns and royally
Speaker 1: screws this up soon. And yet David, I think that
Speaker 1: he's a homegrown Morning Wilie. And that's so thanks to
Speaker 1: everybody who chimed in in the twitch pitch this morning,
Speaker 1: and thanks to everybody who's always a part of the
Speaker 1: twitch pitch. Okay, Gossip Rumer and Nuendo what to watch,
Speaker 1: and then we'll get into the news of the morning
Speaker 1: and just kind of give you bullet points as to
Speaker 1: what to look at for the remainder of the day
Speaker 1: when it comes to news and matches and things like that. Okay,
Speaker 1: here's your gossip. Liverpool ready to move for Real Madrid's
Speaker 1: Rodrigo if Salah leaves Anfield at the end of the year.
Speaker 1: Everton's perspective, new owners, the Freedkin Group want to bring
Speaker 1: in Medizicio Sadi as their new manager. We'll ask Nick
Speaker 1: about that. You've hoping to extend the contract of Dusan
Speaker 1: Vlahovitch until twenty eight or twenty nine, although negotiations reported
Speaker 1: to be the standstill. Lahovich has been recently linked to Arsenal.
Speaker 1: Manchester United remain interested in Jared Branthwaite will make another
Speaker 1: attempt to try to sign him as he will be
Speaker 1: a cap defender in twenty five. Lever Cusan's right back
Speaker 1: Jeremy Frempong high on Liverpool's list to replace Trent Alexander
Speaker 1: Arnold if he leaves the club. Chelsea targeting Arbi Leipzig
Speaker 1: center back Castello Lukeba as they want to sign the
Speaker 1: best young players remember their B side one four hundred
Speaker 1: million dollar B team one in the Gummy Bear Cup.
Speaker 1: The other day lever Cusans Victor Boniface is on Chelsea
Speaker 1: shortlist for a new striker. Barcelona see Porto's Diego Costa
Speaker 1: as a long term option for Andre ter Stagan. But
Speaker 1: when folks come out of retirement, you're going to sign him.
Speaker 1: And so that's what happened, a short retirement for keepers
Speaker 1: to go and be a part of the Barcelona project
Speaker 1: to help out after the mark Andre chter Stagan injury.
Speaker 1: You can sign to eighty percent since the windows closed,
Speaker 1: eighty percent of that value and so you end up
Speaker 1: with a retirement fix for Barcelona. Woyzeck Chesney has made
Speaker 1: his way into the coffers for Barthcelona. Stay safe this
Speaker 1: We're going to quote cowboy gilt. Keep your pants and
Speaker 1: your powder dry, yes, sir, no doubt about it. Manchester
Speaker 1: United want to free up space and could let Christian
Speaker 1: eriksend In Casamiro leave in January. In twenty twenty, Manchester
Speaker 1: United offered one hundred million euro to Barsa for Ansufati
Speaker 1: and he's now twenty one. Spent last season on Old
Speaker 1: Brighton Brighton liked him, but I think the price tag
Speaker 1: was too high to keep him Lever Cusan's seventeen year
Speaker 1: old German midfielder Francis on Yaka being scotted by Chelsea. Hell,
Speaker 1: everybody's being scotted by Chelsea. Who are we kidding? Newcastle
Speaker 1: beaten Real Madrid Byron Munickbrusha Dortmann to secure the services
Speaker 1: of Dinomo Tiblisi's seventeen year old George and Ford Tong Salia,
Speaker 1: so keep an eye on that. Europa League is kicking
Speaker 1: off at twelve forty five, so keep an eye on
Speaker 1: all of that. Let's see Arsenal beat Bolton yesterday five
Speaker 1: to one, and apparently a giant stadium in Malaysia that
Speaker 1: hosted Chelsea and Spurs was being demolished. The video is
Speaker 1: now out at The Telegraph, exclusive from our friends at
Speaker 1: the Telegraph. The top clubs are fearing bills running into
Speaker 1: the millions for the Premier League legal battles. Clubs are
Speaker 1: worried and this is Sam Wallace, John Percy Ben rumsby
Speaker 1: three authors in this one. Clubs worried multiple cases with
Speaker 1: Eyewater and costs including charges against Manchester City, will reduce
Speaker 1: their share of funding. Premier League clubs are concerned the
Speaker 1: legal bill for all the leagues' high profile cases will
Speaker 1: run into multiple millions of pounds reduce the club's share
Speaker 1: of central funds from the broadcast and commercial deals. Twenty
Speaker 1: clubs meet today Premier League Commission hearing over the City's
Speaker 1: charges ongoing in a now imminent on a separate arbitration
Speaker 1: with the same club cases pursued on breaches of financial
Speaker 1: controls with Everton, Forced and Lester, including appeals. Recently published
Speaker 1: account of the appeal by the Premier League over its
Speaker 1: cost award in the Everton case for a breach of
Speaker 1: PSR caused concern among the clubs. In submissions to the Commission,
Speaker 1: the club's General counsel Cilia Rooney described as eyewatering some
Speaker 1: of the rates paid by the Premier League for its
Speaker 1: legal cost. Premier League regards the spending on fighting legal
Speaker 1: cases as fundamental both to enforce rules and also to
Speaker 1: defend itself against legal challenges. Costs are paid out of
Speaker 1: the central Premier League funds, which means all the clubs
Speaker 1: bear them equally. In the City case alone, which still
Speaker 1: has and this is the tribunal that was supposed to
Speaker 1: be held in secret, not the arbitration that apparently is
Speaker 1: going to be discussed and revealed to the other clubs
Speaker 1: today at the meeting. The City case alone Premier League
Speaker 1: is instructed to King's Councils and thank you for letting
Speaker 1: me know what casey is from Blackstone Chambers as well
Speaker 1: as well as Jason Popjoy of the same chambers who
Speaker 1: led the league's Everton Costs a peel case. Premier League
Speaker 1: is up against a very well resourced legal team on
Speaker 1: the club side, including City, who are led by Lord
Speaker 1: Panic King's Council Arbitration. We said the arbitration case is
Speaker 1: set and that's separate, and that was rules of governance
Speaker 1: and fair market value. So everyone is staring at the
Speaker 1: costs and getting to have to share the costs of
Speaker 1: the legal case against Manchester City and probably the lower
Speaker 1: revenue teams are kind of freaking out about that. So yeah,
Speaker 1: Chesney signs in Barcelona after being retired for I think
Speaker 1: a full nine weeks, So you've got he had got
Speaker 1: all that going for you, which is nice. Checking the Guardian,
Speaker 1: We'll check the Times and see what else is going on.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, yes, yes, yes, this is breaking news. So
Speaker 1: I've got to find the sounder and find it relatively
Speaker 1: quickly here branding, looping and bringing. Remember the bite we
Speaker 1: were talking about in the lower divisions in England, we
Speaker 1: have an advancement of that. Preston's Million ten Osmayitch has
Speaker 1: been charged by the FA with biting Blackburn's Owen Beck.
Speaker 1: The Montenegrin international has until Monday to respond. He could
Speaker 1: face a lengthy ban after the incident. Preston North End
Speaker 1: striker millionten Osmic has been charged with biting alleged to
Speaker 1: a bitt and Owen Beck sent off for kicking out
Speaker 1: at Dwayne Holmes. In the same incident late in the
Speaker 1: game at Deepdale, Beck, who's on loan at Ewood from Liverpool,
Speaker 1: was dismissed for a swipe at Holmes after a foul
Speaker 1: on his miag, who then got to his feet, grabbed Beck,
Speaker 1: charging him away with his head pressed into the back.
Speaker 1: Blackburn manager John Eustace said after the match that Beck
Speaker 1: has got a big bite mark on the back of
Speaker 1: his neck. He's shown all the lads he's a bit quiet,
Speaker 1: he's a little bit shook up. Bad tempered match also
Speaker 1: included Preston Sam Greenwood being sent off for a lunge
Speaker 1: at Lewis Baker. So the f A has now charged
Speaker 1: at milliontons miche from Preston, North End for trying to
Speaker 1: take a chunk out of owen Beck. Yeah, David, three
Speaker 1: year olds down here those my and the photo is
Speaker 1: there in the article where you see Osmaic. It's like,
Speaker 1: why why are you biting? Seriously, why are you biting somebody? Legitimately,
Speaker 1: I have no idea. So yeah, pressed to press millionton
Speaker 1: is myag. The let me, I'll give you the article
Speaker 1: from I'll give you the link to the article from
Speaker 1: our friends at the Guardian, and it's got the picture
Speaker 1: looking at Osmaich. It's the camera, the still camera is
Speaker 1: behind looking at his miag and literally it looks like
Speaker 1: he's trying to take a chunk out of his C three,
Speaker 1: out of owen Beck's C three. That's the I mean,
Speaker 1: that's the money photo. But then you're gonna go to
Speaker 1: that photographer and sit there and go, okay, I need
Speaker 1: to see your entire sequence and oh, he didn't bite him,
Speaker 1: he didn't make full contact. But then you have the
Speaker 1: eyewitness testimony that yes he did, and so you got
Speaker 1: all that, but million totos mich is facing a lengthy
Speaker 1: band He has until Monday to appeal. What's what's going
Speaker 1: on with the incident involving Preston, North End and Blackburn?
Speaker 1: This I thought was kind of intriguing by Rob Davies
Speaker 1: at the Guardian. Half of the Premier League clubs are
Speaker 1: breaking the code on gambling ads for children. Review the
Speaker 1: gambling regulation find clubs advertising gambling on pages aimed at
Speaker 1: or featuring minors. Half of the Premier League football clubs
Speaker 1: have advertised gambling on web pages aimed at or featuring
Speaker 1: you eighteens, prompting concerned about a voluntary code of conduct
Speaker 1: drawn up with the help of the betting industry. Premier
Speaker 1: clubs remember they volunteered to forego front of shirt betting
Speaker 1: logos from twenty twenty six, signed up to new rules
Speaker 1: for sponsorship drafted in collaboration with the Betting and Gaming Council.
Speaker 1: Half of excuse me, half of the clubs do not
Speaker 1: appear to be abiding by their own code. As of Monday,
Speaker 1: at least two clubs displayed members of their U eighteen
Speaker 1: squad wearing shirts with betting logos on despite being underage.
Speaker 1: Findings prompted concern from campaigners, including Clive Tildesley and Ian
Speaker 1: Duncan Smith, who's a conservative leader about allowing clubs to
Speaker 1: set their own rules on gambling. Sponsorships. Brentford and Wolves
Speaker 1: included betting logos at the bottom of the kids sections
Speaker 1: of their online merchandise shop. Everton's website of page caring
Speaker 1: news about the club's junior fans forum for children aged
Speaker 1: eleven to seventeen link to the company sponsor state dot com,
Speaker 1: as it did their underage page. And so there's a big,
Speaker 1: big article from Rob Davies at The Guardian about all
Speaker 1: the clubs and how you can click on things and
Speaker 1: you can see how how you end up with betting
Speaker 1: and names of betting folks on jerseys in the U eighteens.
Speaker 1: We'll get into scores and let you know what's going
Speaker 1: on with Europa League and all the other stuff that's happening.
Speaker 1: In just a little bit. One more stot. Let me
Speaker 1: get to the Independent. Let me see if there's anything
Speaker 1: from Miguel Delaney. Yeah, apparently low Paateggy hurt himself yesterday
Speaker 1: and it was in the match. He was a little
Speaker 1: slow getting to the press conference because apparently he like
Speaker 1: pulled a muscle or something, and it is a rough
Speaker 1: It is a rough start for low Pateggy fourteenth. He
Speaker 1: needed an injury time equalizer and to get a point
Speaker 1: against Fulham and apparently Low patag like pulled a muscle
Speaker 1: or something. So he was a little late getting to
Speaker 1: his press conference because he pulled a muscle. And so
Speaker 1: he's going to be going through all of the uh uh,
Speaker 1: all of the rehab that his players do. And yeah,
Speaker 1: rough day for the Hammers. Everyone at west Ham got
Speaker 1: hurt yesterday, no doubt, Luke Baker at the Independent. The
Speaker 1: man found guilty of racially abusing Venetius Junior was given
Speaker 1: a suspended prison sentence by a Spanish court. Real Madrid
Speaker 1: article Real Madrid released an official statement revealing the unnamed
Speaker 1: mail found guilty by a magistrates court in Palma de
Speaker 1: Majorca of directing racist insults at Venetius Junior for at
Speaker 1: the match of Majorca Real Madrid and on back on
Speaker 1: February fifth, over a year and a half ago. It
Speaker 1: took a year and a half to get to this point.
Speaker 1: The accused was guilty of two crimes against moral integrity,
Speaker 1: aggravated by having acted with racist motives. Towards the Brazilian
Speaker 1: winger and also against then Via Rail player Samachuques, who
Speaker 1: suffered similar insults at the Majorca Sonmi Stadium by the
Speaker 1: same person two weeks later during Majorca and Real Madrid
Speaker 1: supporters could be heard in the video calling Veneti's junior
Speaker 1: a monkey. Statement confirmed the judge sentence demand to twelve
Speaker 1: months in prison jail sentence suspended on the condition that
Speaker 1: he apologizes and shows his remorse with a letter to
Speaker 1: Venetia's junior and participates in an equal treatment and anti
Speaker 1: discrimination program. It's also been banned from football stadiums holding
Speaker 1: La Liga or RFEF matches, meaning the national team for
Speaker 1: a period of three years. Real Madrid's statement quote this
Speaker 1: is the third criminal conviction handed down in recent months
Speaker 1: for racist insults received by Real Madrid players. Real Madrid
Speaker 1: will keep working to protect the club's values and eradicate
Speaker 1: any racist behavior in the world of football and sport
Speaker 1: end quote. A miner who racially insulted Raal midfielder early
Speaker 1: in Chomeni in April of this year through water bottles
Speaker 1: at him has also apologized and shown repentance. The youth
Speaker 1: has been banned from stadiums for a year, will take
Speaker 1: part in educational activities proposed by the prosecutor's office, paying
Speaker 1: a fine of seventh th thousand and one Euro four
Speaker 1: thousand for the insults, three thousand and one for throwing objects.
Speaker 1: Okay for the kid, all right, fine for the adult
Speaker 1: suspended sentence three years away. It ain't long enough. He
Speaker 1: needs to be banned for life and for doing this
Speaker 1: kind of stuff because you never know who you're going
Speaker 1: to be around. You never know who you're going to influence,
Speaker 1: and the best influence you can have is being outside
Speaker 1: the building yelling at the top of your lungs where
Speaker 1: no one can hear you or see you except for
Speaker 1: security cameras. Needs to be a lifetime ban. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: I have zero patients for stupidity down here. This qualifies
Speaker 1: also for the legal system for doing a year and
Speaker 1: a half to get to this point of this case.
Speaker 1: Year and a half. Took a year and a half
Speaker 1: to get here. What are you doing? What are you doing?
Speaker 1: Apparently not much? Banned from LaLiga and RFF national team
Speaker 1: matches for three years. Whoop be doue. That'll learn him.
Speaker 1: And the point that we always make in these situations.
Speaker 1: Four Cards says, the best influence is no influence. What
Speaker 1: always gets me in this case is that you think
Speaker 1: that the that the legal system is going to you
Speaker 1: know that is the legal system is going to behave here,
Speaker 1: You're you're going to to go and I mean there
Speaker 1: are times when you you run out of words, but
Speaker 1: it's the same words over and over again. And I
Speaker 1: know that there are times when we do deal with
Speaker 1: a lot of stupidity down here where it's like why
Speaker 1: do we say what we say? Why don't we because
Speaker 1: no one's gonna listen. You know, you never know that
Speaker 1: the biggest thing in stupid down here is to continue
Speaker 1: to shine the sunlight as best we can on this
Speaker 1: kind of stupidity so everyone knows what's going on. It
Speaker 1: rubs off, and we continue to go with our best
Speaker 1: feet forward to try to stop stupidity down here. I
Speaker 1: guess we reset the clock now, and you know, to
Speaker 1: reset the clock having to do with the Venetia's junior case,
Speaker 1: I mean a year and a half, a year and
Speaker 1: a half and this individual, I'm fairly certain has excuse me,
Speaker 1: continue to go to matches, continue to sit in the stands,
Speaker 1: whether it's national team stuff, or if it's home team
Speaker 1: stuff for the gentleman's beloved majorca who has he been
Speaker 1: rubbing off on in the year and a half since
Speaker 1: the incident with Venetius Junior? And yeah, oh, by the way,
Speaker 1: you need to apologize, apologize, write a nice letter, write
Speaker 1: a letter. Two crimes against moral integrity, jail sentence suspended
Speaker 1: on the condition he apologizes, shows his remorse in a
Speaker 1: letter to Vinacius Junior. I'm sorry. I'm writing a letter.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry Veniji's Junior for all the harm that I've caused.
Speaker 1: How much good has that done in the past. I
Speaker 1: don't know. For me, I'd probably read it and then
Speaker 1: set it on fire in the driveway. Probably be a
Speaker 1: better show equal treatment and anti discrimination program. I hope
Speaker 1: that that works for this individual. I hope that what's
Speaker 1: going on with the young the young the young fan
Speaker 1: works just as well. I hope you you learn the
Speaker 1: lessons going forward. I think the younger fan probably has
Speaker 1: a bigger window to do that than the older gentleman.
Speaker 1: Two crimes against moral and integrity aggravated with having acted
Speaker 1: with racist motives. Took you a year and a half
Speaker 1: to decide that. I mean legitimately, there probably should be
Speaker 1: just a different kind of a sport court maybe, I
Speaker 1: mean literally, it's just a thought. I mean, and I
Speaker 1: admit that I'm you know, I'm partial to the legal
Speaker 1: system having wheels that don't grind, especially with stuff like
Speaker 1: this that is apparently a slam dunk. You would think
Speaker 1: that the legal system is a slam dunk in this case.
Speaker 1: Four card. The apology needs to be in person, face
Speaker 1: to face, and replayed all over. I agree needs to
Speaker 1: be in person. I mean, fine, you bring the security
Speaker 1: team from Real Madrid, you have them around, literally and
Speaker 1: do it out in front of the Bernabeux. I mean
Speaker 1: literally that you go in front of the Burna Bayou
Speaker 1: not in MAJORCA. No, it's not a home game apology. No,
Speaker 1: you've got to go to him. You've got to go
Speaker 1: to You've got to go to Venetians Junior in front
Speaker 1: of that stadium. You're not wearing any of your MAJORCA gear, David,
Speaker 1: I'd love that one free slap. You know, maybe maybe
Speaker 1: Venetian's Junior gets a free dressing down. If he doesn't
Speaker 1: want to do the free slap, he just gets to
Speaker 1: yell at him and do a rant about how stupid.
Speaker 1: He is the individual. Venetians Junior gets one dressing down
Speaker 1: in whatever form he wishes. How about that, Venetian's junior.
Speaker 1: The guy's supposed to apologize in a written letter. Nope,
Speaker 1: got to be in person. I agree, it has to
Speaker 1: be in person. On the ground at the Burna Bayou. Yes,
Speaker 1: you can have security forces there and do whatever you
Speaker 1: need to do. Have a circle around both of the guys,
Speaker 1: and it's almost like an Oklahoma drill. You do Oklahoma
Speaker 1: drill apologies. Guy walks up, says his apology. Player he's
Speaker 1: apologizing to gets a free repercussion, gets a free shot.
Speaker 1: So it's like it literally, it's like an Oklahoma drill apology.
Speaker 1: That's what we're creating here today. Once again, we're fixing
Speaker 1: things here at SDH. You get to do your apology
Speaker 1: in an Oklahoma drill. Set up security or whatever's behind everybody.
Speaker 1: You've got a circle. Dude comes forward with his apology
Speaker 1: and he doesn't read what's on the paper because then
Speaker 1: you're just your head's down and you're just looking at it.
Speaker 1: No eye contact face to face. I want eye contact
Speaker 1: because then that way you can see how sincere the
Speaker 1: individual is. It is Solutions Thursday for card. Damn it,
Speaker 1: you're right. Dude goes to He can't do it at MAJORCA.
Speaker 1: He's got to go to He's got to go to
Speaker 1: the Burna Bayu. Venetians Junior comes out of the Burna Bayu,
Speaker 1: Oklahoma drill. There's a group of folks around. The apology
Speaker 1: cannot be read. It has to be in person, face
Speaker 1: to face, speak your mind. Venetia's Junior gets a free
Speaker 1: shot to speak his own mind. When Venetia's Junior gets
Speaker 1: his opportunity, everyone in the Oklahoma drill turns around, so
Speaker 1: it's just Venetius and the dude. Venetius gets to do
Speaker 1: what he wants. Does he want to dress him down?
Speaker 1: Does he want to f bomb him? Sure? Does he
Speaker 1: want a free shot? Turn the security cameras off? Maybe?
Speaker 1: But no, I think at the very least everybody in
Speaker 1: the Oklahoma drill turns around, Venetia's Junior gets to yell
Speaker 1: at him and say whatever he wants to say, all
Speaker 1: of it off the record. But two counts a year
Speaker 1: and a half to get to this point, and it's
Speaker 1: an apology in classes. I want to know who this
Speaker 1: guy's rubbed off against. In this year and a half.
Speaker 1: Who else at MAJORCA when this guy has gone to
Speaker 1: home games? What else has he said? And to whom
Speaker 1: has he said it? And it's situations like this where
Speaker 1: it reminds me of high school. You get in trouble
Speaker 1: in high school and you go to the principal's office.
Speaker 1: Principal tells you you know, and you bring in your
Speaker 1: parents are forced to come, and you're all sitting in
Speaker 1: the principal's office. Principal says you you know you did this, this, this,
Speaker 1: this and this. Then you sit there and you tuck
Speaker 1: your head, and your parents are there, and you're gonna
Speaker 1: sit there and say you know, yes or yes or
Speaker 1: yes sir. And then what's the first thing you do
Speaker 1: once the punishment has been administered? You know, you're in
Speaker 1: detention for like a month after school. The teacher loves
Speaker 1: that in the first place. Whatever teacher is stuck with
Speaker 1: detention duty, they love being in that room for a month. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's your turn. What's the first thing that the kid
Speaker 1: does who gets in trouble has the meeting with the
Speaker 1: principal and the parents are there. First chance you get
Speaker 1: when you're back out and you're having lunch with your buddies.
Speaker 1: What do you do and you're giggling your ass off. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I met with the principal. Yeah. Yeah, the principal said, yeah,
Speaker 1: I gotta do this, and I said it, I've wrote
Speaker 1: a letter. I wrote on the chalkboard a hundred times,
Speaker 1: like Bart Simpson, No, that's the first thing that happens. Literally,
Speaker 1: you go back to your buddies at the lunch table
Speaker 1: and you're giggling your ass off. Yeah, I got to
Speaker 1: meet with the principle. I hae to sit there. I'm
Speaker 1: not going to do any of that stuff. Garon, damntu
Speaker 1: that that's what this guy is saying. Yeah, I've got
Speaker 1: to write a letter. I'm gonna go class. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go to it or I'm not. You know, he
Speaker 1: went back to his buddies. He went back to his
Speaker 1: ultra buddies, and they're like, well, what did they do?
Speaker 1: What did they say? Yeah, well I did this this,
Speaker 1: and yeah I'm supposed to do this, this, this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll do it, but it won't it won't affect me.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna change. I'm always gonna be Majorca through
Speaker 1: and through.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Right, you went back to your buddies at the lunch
Speaker 1: table and you're sitting there and you're talking about Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's no way. I don't. I mean, I think I
Speaker 1: think it will help the younger fan more. But the
Speaker 1: guy who is charged going and saying what he said
Speaker 1: about Venetia's junior a year and a half later, getting charged,
Speaker 1: you got to go to class, you gotta write an apology.
Speaker 1: I'm not optimistic. I wish I was more optimistic, but
Speaker 1: I don't think this impacts him. I think he goes
Speaker 1: back to the lunch table every day after class and
Speaker 1: he's like, I hope he has to pay court costs.
Speaker 1: I hope he has to pay everything associated with it
Speaker 1: and make it for the full eighteen months. Don't just
Speaker 1: did the appearance day in court where you gotta pay
Speaker 1: like fifty bus and court fees and it's like three
Speaker 1: hundred and forty bucks. No, all the investigating I would
Speaker 1: want this court to sit there and think of every
Speaker 1: line item that they had to do to research his case,
Speaker 1: all the man hours mark him down. But I do
Speaker 1: not see after class and writing a letter that it's
Speaker 1: gonna make a difference for this guy and the fact
Speaker 1: that he's banned for three years. How are you gonna
Speaker 1: track that he could go Bobby Valentine, Mets manager wearing
Speaker 1: a mustache and glasses unless you use that facial technology
Speaker 1: that James Dolan has at Madison Square Garden. How are
Speaker 1: you gonna sit there and make sure that this dude
Speaker 1: doesn't go to matches? Seriously, how are you gonna You're
Speaker 1: gonna put up You're gonna put his picture at every
Speaker 1: gate at the stadiums in Majorca and everywhere in La Liga,
Speaker 1: and every place in the state, in the country, and
Speaker 1: for international matches, here's you, here's the guy. If he
Speaker 1: walks up, don't let him in. It'd be like Days
Speaker 1: of Our Lives. That's you know, that's that's not Drake Romorray.
Speaker 1: That's Hans Romory, Drake's evil twin. And I don't see
Speaker 1: this working. I really don't. He's going back to the
Speaker 1: lunch table the second he's out of class, and they're
Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna giggle and they're gonna laugh about it,
Speaker 1: and nothing's gonna change. Three years is not enough, but
Speaker 1: the Oklahoma drill apology. I think Forecard I think we're
Speaker 1: onto something. David, I think we're onto something. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: Famous Streaker and Morgana. Morgana the Kissing Bandit, Famous Streaker
Speaker 1: still got it everywhere for decades. Absolutely a Streaker did,
Speaker 1: MORGANA did? And what happened MORGANA and the Streaker? They
Speaker 1: made it on damn television. And here's there's Morgana the
Speaker 1: Kissing Bandit. She's going after, you know, headlining the Independent.
Speaker 1: Pet believes that the gummy bear cup is a waste
Speaker 1: of energy.
Speaker 2: He's right.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 1: The vote to amend from Jamie Gardner at the Independent.
Speaker 1: Remember the market value thing we were talking about. The
Speaker 1: vote to amend those rules was withdrawn ahead of the meeting.
Speaker 1: The sources said the vote related to a small change
Speaker 1: to the league's data bank, withdrawn ahead of the club's
Speaker 1: meeting today. Sources insist the change would have only been
Speaker 1: a minor one. Reports on Thursday link the decision to
Speaker 1: pull a vote connected to the data bank, a tool
Speaker 1: used by the league's board to assess fair market value
Speaker 1: and commercial deals, to Manchester City's legal challenges. The APT
Speaker 1: reports said that it indicated a potential victory for the
Speaker 1: club and the case. However, PA News Agency understands the
Speaker 1: change would not have been a substantive one, even if
Speaker 1: it had been voted through sources coast to the meeting
Speaker 1: describing it as minor. So that rule that we all
Speaker 1: were talking about, they pulled it off the table even
Speaker 1: before they went into went in to vote on it.
Speaker 1: So you got that yay, all right, gossip Rover, and
Speaker 1: you got to do what to watch word to watch it?
Speaker 1: Good Lord John? All right, now that we've vented our spleens,
