7
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Good to see you, John Nino, family of SDH. Always

8
00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:28.079
<v Speaker 2>a good Thursday when I'm here with y'all excited about

9
00:00:28.559 --> 00:00:31.079
<v Speaker 2>some of the games that went on going into the playoffs.

10
00:00:31.079 --> 00:00:33.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure you guys have a whole list of topics.

11
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:36.439
<v Speaker 1>So let's do it, all right, So it's two questions

12
00:00:36.439 --> 00:00:39.840
<v Speaker 1>and it's rapid fire for the handoff. Here. My first question,

13
00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:41.880
<v Speaker 1>my first question to the both of you, and I'll

14
00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:44.119
<v Speaker 1>start with Nino since he's got the furthest to trek

15
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:48.200
<v Speaker 1>Uh Johnny and Fantino. On the last day of the

16
00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:52.600
<v Speaker 1>regular season in Major League Soccer, he decided that he

17
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:56.679
<v Speaker 1>was going to travel down to Fort Lauderdale and hang

18
00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:58.840
<v Speaker 1>out with Messi and friends at the Erector set for

19
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:02.679
<v Speaker 1>the last game of the regular season. Then they win

20
00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:06.439
<v Speaker 1>the cap, that they win the appetizer pie play, they're

21
00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:11.239
<v Speaker 1>ready to go that they win it. Then all of

22
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:16.040
<v Speaker 1>a sudden, Johnny Infantino gets on the house Mike and

23
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:19.840
<v Speaker 1>says that Messi and friends have been invited to the

24
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:23.239
<v Speaker 1>Club World Cup as Team thirty two as the host

25
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:29.319
<v Speaker 1>wild card. Nino, I ask you, tongue firmly planted in

26
00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:33.280
<v Speaker 1>chic how shocking a moment was this for you as

27
00:01:33.319 --> 00:01:36.480
<v Speaker 1>a follower of the sport of soccer, that mess and

28
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:38.879
<v Speaker 1>friends were invited to the Club World Cup.

29
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:45.280
<v Speaker 3>I mean, he's the best ever, right, he's the.

30
00:01:45.280 --> 00:01:49.519
<v Speaker 1>Gold Oh I thought you were talking about anything. Yeah, like,

31
00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:50.319
<v Speaker 1>wait a minute.

32
00:01:50.799 --> 00:01:54.400
<v Speaker 4>That that that's his team and why not let him

33
00:01:54.439 --> 00:01:58.120
<v Speaker 4>have him the chance for the first time ever in

34
00:01:58.159 --> 00:02:02.560
<v Speaker 4>the MLS lead a team into into the World Club

35
00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:03.319
<v Speaker 4>to competition.

36
00:02:03.719 --> 00:02:05.959
<v Speaker 2>Why not? I think it's smart.

37
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:10.280
<v Speaker 3>It's a completely marketing based decision, this one. Of course,

38
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:13.520
<v Speaker 3>of course that doesn't have to do anything with the uh,

39
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:16.280
<v Speaker 3>with the achievements.

40
00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:17.919
<v Speaker 2>But I like it.

41
00:02:18.039 --> 00:02:19.960
<v Speaker 4>I mean I like it, And you know you're a

42
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:23.680
<v Speaker 4>METSI lower maybe I am, maybe I am okay, but uh.

43
00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:27.919
<v Speaker 2>Let let the guy who gave everything to the sport.

44
00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:31.479
<v Speaker 3>Let the guy who run the show for fifteen years

45
00:02:31.479 --> 00:02:34.479
<v Speaker 3>to be number one in the planet alongside with Christiana,

46
00:02:34.479 --> 00:02:36.240
<v Speaker 3>because I believe that there were the two Kings, not

47
00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:40.560
<v Speaker 3>only one, two Kings. All right, this last year, man,

48
00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:43.039
<v Speaker 3>this is uh You're gonna go to winter Fell after

49
00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:45.680
<v Speaker 3>this and and tell your kids?

50
00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:46.400
<v Speaker 2>Are you playing the.

51
00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:48.520
<v Speaker 3>World in the world clubs with the with the MLS

52
00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:50.039
<v Speaker 3>team and your friends.

53
00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:52.120
<v Speaker 2>Isn't that cool? Man? It's awesome?

54
00:02:52.319 --> 00:02:54.639
<v Speaker 1>I like it, all right, So Nico, I know you're

55
00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:55.639
<v Speaker 1>equally surprised.

56
00:02:57.240 --> 00:03:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Uh yeah, And look, first of all, everybody loves Messi,

57
00:03:01.319 --> 00:03:03.439
<v Speaker 2>whether you love his player, you love to hate him,

58
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:09.360
<v Speaker 2>you love Lino Messi, and it's not the point of discussion.

59
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:13.080
<v Speaker 2>I think that we already knew this was going to happen.

60
00:03:13.439 --> 00:03:16.240
<v Speaker 2>Actually in Soccer Bar, we did a mock up of

61
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:21.439
<v Speaker 2>what that Infantino statement was going to look like. And

62
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.000
<v Speaker 2>other than the fact that they're going to get to

63
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:28.120
<v Speaker 2>host the game, it was exactly what we said, right,

64
00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:29.960
<v Speaker 2>I Mean, you knew what was gonna happen, you knew

65
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:31.400
<v Speaker 2>what he was going to say, you know what it

66
00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:36.360
<v Speaker 2>was about. But I think that the reality in this

67
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:40.560
<v Speaker 2>case is that they kind of deserve it, right. I mean,

68
00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:45.520
<v Speaker 2>they've done enough to at least make it palatable for

69
00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:48.000
<v Speaker 2>you to say you know what, Yes, we knew it

70
00:03:48.080 --> 00:03:51.319
<v Speaker 2>was gonna happen. They could have even been eighth in

71
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:53.759
<v Speaker 2>the East. They could have barely made it to the playoffs.

72
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:56.280
<v Speaker 2>He might have been harder to sell. But this was

73
00:03:56.319 --> 00:03:59.879
<v Speaker 2>going to happen. Right. But now where Lunel Messi and

74
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:06.240
<v Speaker 2>friends are the supported show winners, they break the point record. Uh,

75
00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:09.960
<v Speaker 2>they likely have Coach of the Year, likely have MVP

76
00:04:10.120 --> 00:04:13.960
<v Speaker 2>of the Year. It just makes makes more sense. Right.

77
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:21.120
<v Speaker 2>In reality, it is about marketing. It is about what

78
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:24.759
<v Speaker 2>Nino just said, is you know, is Lionel Messi is uh,

79
00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:28.199
<v Speaker 2>you know, Jordi Alba is Busquets is Suarez in this

80
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:32.439
<v Speaker 2>huge tournament against European teams that they all played at

81
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:35.959
<v Speaker 2>or played against or whatever. And so it just makes

82
00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:41.360
<v Speaker 2>a fantastic narrative. But again you have to realize two things.

83
00:04:41.879 --> 00:04:47.759
<v Speaker 2>Anyone who's saying they earned or they they won this

84
00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:54.040
<v Speaker 2>spot in this tournament, they're lying to themselves. Uh did

85
00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:58.240
<v Speaker 2>they do the job to be noticed to get invited. Yes,

86
00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:02.120
<v Speaker 2>but we have to clarify this is an invitation at

87
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:03.000
<v Speaker 2>the very end of the day.

88
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:09.480
<v Speaker 1>Yep. Second question in the handoff to uh Nino, would

89
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:13.560
<v Speaker 1>you go eleven hundred and eighteen miles on a bicycle

90
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:17.639
<v Speaker 1>to go see your favorite team.

91
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:23.720
<v Speaker 5>I would, really, I would, Yeah, I would, dude, it

92
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:26.759
<v Speaker 5>was eleven hundred and eighteen miles on a bicycle just

93
00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:29.040
<v Speaker 5>to see payn you roll and you will you'd go

94
00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:32.519
<v Speaker 5>eleven hundred and eighteen miles on a bicycle as well.

95
00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:35.079
<v Speaker 3>Actually this wasn't closed, right, but I'm going to tell

96
00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:38.560
<v Speaker 3>you I will on a thirty five hour road trip

97
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:41.920
<v Speaker 3>to watch my team back in two thousand.

98
00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:43.720
<v Speaker 2>So it's not on a.

99
00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:46.279
<v Speaker 3>Bicycle, no, but it's thirty five hours on a road,

100
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:49.600
<v Speaker 3>thirty five hours.

101
00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:53.879
<v Speaker 1>Called Niko, would you go eleven hundred and eighteen miles

102
00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:56.920
<v Speaker 1>on a bicycle to go see your favorite team.

103
00:05:57.879 --> 00:05:59.879
<v Speaker 2>Just because I don't have the stamina to get it

104
00:06:00.199 --> 00:06:04.439
<v Speaker 2>close to that? No? Yeah, definitely not not these days,

105
00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:10.199
<v Speaker 2>even with you know, the desire and the love for

106
00:06:10.279 --> 00:06:13.800
<v Speaker 2>the game and the love for Nacional that is my

107
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:19.319
<v Speaker 2>childhood team, or Colombia as I end up ended up

108
00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:22.519
<v Speaker 2>going to Charlotte on a whim to go watch them

109
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:25.680
<v Speaker 2>play that semifinal of Coup America. If it wasn't on

110
00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:29.160
<v Speaker 2>a plane and some ubers, I would not have gone.

111
00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:37.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh Man, as always my friend Nino, be safe and

112
00:06:37.959 --> 00:06:40.480
<v Speaker 1>love the jersey and have a great call, and may

113
00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:42.560
<v Speaker 1>the pipes behave and we will catch up with you

114
00:06:42.600 --> 00:06:44.879
<v Speaker 1>again next week. We would go fully loaded and we'll

115
00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:46.839
<v Speaker 1>come up with more stuff around the planet as always,

118
00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:54.560
<v Speaker 1>your house. You're scared, you know, you had a lot.

119
00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:57.319
<v Speaker 2>Thank you John, thank you, Niko, see you guys.

120
00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:00.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he had, he had a lot of sight Iron's

121
00:07:00.439 --> 00:07:02.560
<v Speaker 1>going on during his segment. I was kind of scared

122
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:05.360
<v Speaker 1>for a second there. I didn't know if people Voca

123
00:07:05.639 --> 00:07:09.000
<v Speaker 1>laustan him or anything. All Right, So let's get into

124
00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:13.079
<v Speaker 1>the discussion topic number one, and this came from buddy

125
00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:15.519
<v Speaker 1>Alex Passin, who was keeping an eye on what's going

126
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:17.839
<v Speaker 1>on on the two hundred and eighty character app. Last night,

127
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:22.920
<v Speaker 1>there was a game in Major League Soccer and it

128
00:07:22.959 --> 00:07:25.920
<v Speaker 1>was a game in the most literal sense of the definition.

129
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:28.000
<v Speaker 1>It was a game. It was ninety minutes, two teams

130
00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:32.079
<v Speaker 1>were there. One team showed, the other did not. And

131
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:35.079
<v Speaker 1>so this morning on the two hundred and eighty character

132
00:07:35.079 --> 00:07:38.319
<v Speaker 1>app or late last night, I'll check the timestamp. Someone

133
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:45.800
<v Speaker 1>that we know, as Ivanda Freida posted the following on Twitter,

134
00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:50.920
<v Speaker 1>Portland fans do not deserve the people who have power

135
00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:54.600
<v Speaker 1>over this club, people who say they are men but

136
00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:57.519
<v Speaker 1>do not keep their word, people who are only there

137
00:07:57.560 --> 00:08:01.560
<v Speaker 1>when the team wins. Unfortunately, these are things we have

138
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:07.519
<v Speaker 1>no control over. If Vander posted that at two thirteen

139
00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:12.839
<v Speaker 1>in the morning Eastern time, so eight and a half

140
00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:18.160
<v Speaker 1>hours ago, Evander was mad as ish about what happened

141
00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:21.959
<v Speaker 1>last night. And man, this is this is a door

142
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:25.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you need to open. But if

143
00:08:25.040 --> 00:08:27.439
<v Speaker 1>Vander felt like he needed to open this door, and

144
00:08:27.480 --> 00:08:30.199
<v Speaker 1>that does not speak well for what's going on in Portland.

145
00:08:32.879 --> 00:08:36.879
<v Speaker 1>Oh man, So of course I do all this. It's

146
00:08:36.919 --> 00:08:40.480
<v Speaker 1>like you set it up and then he froze. Ah,

147
00:08:40.840 --> 00:08:46.360
<v Speaker 1>so uh dial back, freezing and everything. So hang on.

148
00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:50.639
<v Speaker 1>So I'll do that and then we'll see if if

149
00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:53.480
<v Speaker 1>eight and a half hour see I post something from

150
00:08:53.480 --> 00:08:55.799
<v Speaker 1>Portland and I'm getting a Seattle guy to talk about it,

151
00:08:55.919 --> 00:09:00.320
<v Speaker 1>and that's what happens. So that literally that that was

152
00:09:00.919 --> 00:09:05.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, this is Cascade, this is Cascadia anger coming

153
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:10.200
<v Speaker 1>back as a part of the process. So uh, will

154
00:09:10.240 --> 00:09:13.120
<v Speaker 1>getting in his Kennesaus State work Yeah. All I got

155
00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:15.000
<v Speaker 1>to say is, if your favorite fraction is three fists,

156
00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:17.759
<v Speaker 1>don't attempt to enter fifth third exactly. Don't enter the fraction.

157
00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:22.159
<v Speaker 1>Entert your own risk. And yeah, Derek, good morning. Uh

158
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:25.600
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, so Evander, last night, literally at two thirteen

159
00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:28.679
<v Speaker 1>in the morning, was the tail end of a thought,

160
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:32.279
<v Speaker 1>and it was that was the tail end of it.

161
00:09:32.279 --> 00:09:40.000
<v Speaker 1>It was a three tweet piece of anger. First off,

162
00:09:40.039 --> 00:09:42.039
<v Speaker 1>he says, First, I want to apologize to all the

163
00:09:42.080 --> 00:09:44.720
<v Speaker 1>fans who on a Wednesday night dropped everything to support us.

164
00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:47.679
<v Speaker 1>It's really hard to lose the way that we did.

165
00:09:49.000 --> 00:09:51.399
<v Speaker 1>The truth is, losing is not in our plans, but

166
00:09:51.480 --> 00:09:54.960
<v Speaker 1>we have to deal with it. I want to say

167
00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:59.039
<v Speaker 1>that we, the players and the entire staff did everything

168
00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:03.360
<v Speaker 1>we could to take poor Land as far as possible. However, however,

169
00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:08.360
<v Speaker 1>sometimes we have no control over what happens, and what

170
00:10:08.559 --> 00:10:13.759
<v Speaker 1>happens off the field reflects on the field, and then

171
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:17.960
<v Speaker 1>you end up with this third segment. Portland fans do

172
00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:20.559
<v Speaker 1>not deserve the people who have power over this club,

173
00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:22.759
<v Speaker 1>people who say they are men but do not keep

174
00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:26.120
<v Speaker 1>their word, people who are only there when the team wins. Unfortunately,

175
00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:30.600
<v Speaker 1>these are things we have no control over. That came

176
00:10:30.639 --> 00:10:38.120
<v Speaker 1>from Evander last night after the loss. That ain't good.

177
00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:42.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you had a team in you had a

178
00:10:42.200 --> 00:10:48.440
<v Speaker 1>team in Portland that was the nine. They scrambled in

179
00:10:49.559 --> 00:10:57.759
<v Speaker 1>and you end up working your way to getting the

180
00:10:57.799 --> 00:11:07.440
<v Speaker 1>home game and you completely and totally just blah. Oh

181
00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:15.600
<v Speaker 1>and by the way, eleven hundred and eighteen miles. I'm

182
00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:17.559
<v Speaker 1>trying to see. I'm trying to see what the distance is.

183
00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:22.879
<v Speaker 1>It would be like going from say, lumin Field Wow,

184
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:26.639
<v Speaker 1>past Presno State. Wow. Okay, all right, so he's back.

185
00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Did I unplugged? Did I unplug something?

186
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:33.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what happened. I don't know who's messing with.

187
00:11:32.919 --> 00:11:36.039
<v Speaker 1>Me, but I was messing with you. It's the Portland

188
00:11:36.120 --> 00:11:38.279
<v Speaker 1>fans because I brought this up about Evander.

189
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.919
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, maybe maybe he's Evander himself, But look, did there

190
00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:49.120
<v Speaker 2>a typical case of a player not having a good circle.

191
00:11:49.200 --> 00:11:51.559
<v Speaker 2>Someone is gonna take that phone away at two thirty

192
00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:55.799
<v Speaker 2>in the morning anytime, and it goes for anyone hearing

193
00:11:55.799 --> 00:11:58.480
<v Speaker 2>this as a professional athlete or a college player that's

194
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:02.679
<v Speaker 2>moving up. Anytime that your body, your mind, your heart

195
00:12:02.759 --> 00:12:05.960
<v Speaker 2>tells you I need to tweet this at two thirty.

196
00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:09.600
<v Speaker 2>At one thirty at four thirty in the morning, do

197
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:13.840
<v Speaker 2>not do it. Hold it. Call your publicist, call your manager,

198
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:16.360
<v Speaker 2>call your best friend, call your mama, and have her

199
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:19.559
<v Speaker 2>just give you advice and really figure it out. I

200
00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:25.080
<v Speaker 2>have no issue with the player bringing up his frustrations,

201
00:12:25.879 --> 00:12:30.799
<v Speaker 2>doing it in a very political way and doing it

202
00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:32.720
<v Speaker 2>in the right way. That's not going to affect the

203
00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:35.919
<v Speaker 2>rest of your team. But that's not the way to

204
00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:37.799
<v Speaker 2>do it. Not at that time. It does. It's not

205
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:39.840
<v Speaker 2>a good look anytime that you throw a post at

206
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:44.080
<v Speaker 2>that time, it says, don't do it. So as much

207
00:12:44.080 --> 00:12:48.519
<v Speaker 2>as I get that, this probably has a lot to

208
00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:52.639
<v Speaker 2>do with some contractual stuff, with some money things, we've

209
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:56.279
<v Speaker 2>seen it all season, right, he's been in without really

210
00:12:56.320 --> 00:12:59.919
<v Speaker 2>saying it, he's saying pay me right, I'm the MVP

211
00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:05.120
<v Speaker 2>season I broke the record for contributions in Timber's history.

212
00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:08.840
<v Speaker 2>I get it, but don't do it in this manner,

213
00:13:08.960 --> 00:13:12.200
<v Speaker 2>and especially not after a game where you got blown

214
00:13:12.399 --> 00:13:15.960
<v Speaker 2>out by zero and you were one of the guys

215
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:20.799
<v Speaker 2>whose body language said I'm giving up. I'm thinking about

216
00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:25.039
<v Speaker 2>cam Kun or you know, Porto Wayata or wherever he's

217
00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:28.080
<v Speaker 2>going in the offseason, because that's what it said, and

218
00:13:28.159 --> 00:13:31.240
<v Speaker 2>Phil Nevill was very clear. He said, look, Ayala was

219
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:34.759
<v Speaker 2>the only player on that field that had character, that

220
00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:38.360
<v Speaker 2>was fighting every ball, that was blocking all the shots.

221
00:13:38.360 --> 00:13:40.799
<v Speaker 2>More than one time, Phil Nevil during the post conference

222
00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:44.840
<v Speaker 2>talked about I need more players to be leaders, to

223
00:13:45.639 --> 00:13:49.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, have the determination to win games of this magnitude.

224
00:13:51.080 --> 00:13:54.080
<v Speaker 2>Those are all if you ask me in the RECs

225
00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:57.360
<v Speaker 2>at your best player and the guy that has the

226
00:13:57.360 --> 00:13:59.559
<v Speaker 2>magic at his feet, but need to have it in

227
00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:05.120
<v Speaker 2>his heart and his head. So all in all, I

228
00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:09.480
<v Speaker 2>just think it's a bad look for Evander. Uh if

229
00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:11.919
<v Speaker 2>this is any indication of where the team is moving,

230
00:14:12.720 --> 00:14:15.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't see that he'll be back. And even though

231
00:14:15.799 --> 00:14:19.840
<v Speaker 2>he had a fantastic productive season, Phil Nevill seems like

232
00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:23.519
<v Speaker 2>a guy that needs the intangibles and needs more than

233
00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:25.120
<v Speaker 2>a guy that's just good at soccer.

234
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:30.120
<v Speaker 1>Evander as a DP, one of the three dps in

235
00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:33.919
<v Speaker 1>Portland this year, base salary according to spot track at

236
00:14:33.919 --> 00:14:38.440
<v Speaker 1>one million, nine thirty guaranteed two million, three fifty five

237
00:14:38.559 --> 00:14:42.600
<v Speaker 1>second on the club and guaranteed money to Jonathan Rodriguez

238
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:46.720
<v Speaker 1>two million, six twenty seven to five. So Evander thinks

239
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:49.039
<v Speaker 1>that he is worth more than two million, three hundred

240
00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:52.480
<v Speaker 1>and fifty five thousand dollars on a on a yearly,

241
00:14:53.919 --> 00:14:56.600
<v Speaker 1>I could stipulate to that considering what he did in

242
00:14:56.639 --> 00:14:58.879
<v Speaker 1>the Western Conference, he's definitely I think worth more than

243
00:14:58.919 --> 00:15:02.039
<v Speaker 1>two million, three and change to what he's been able

244
00:15:02.320 --> 00:15:05.600
<v Speaker 1>to be for that team. But yes, as Derek says

245
00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:13.679
<v Speaker 1>on the twitch pitch, nothing good happens after two am.

246
00:15:14.120 --> 00:15:18.919
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, man, Look, and this goes as far as I've

247
00:15:19.000 --> 00:15:25.159
<v Speaker 2>been in sports. More than once players have been talked

248
00:15:25.320 --> 00:15:29.519
<v Speaker 2>out of not tweeting things at that time. And it's

249
00:15:29.559 --> 00:15:33.600
<v Speaker 2>always fantastic, man, anytime that a player does it and

250
00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:36.480
<v Speaker 2>they don't have that person next to him, and they

251
00:15:36.679 --> 00:15:40.120
<v Speaker 2>just tend to either they're by themselves or they're with

252
00:15:40.159 --> 00:15:42.440
<v Speaker 2>the wrong type of crowd, a whole bunch of yes

253
00:15:42.480 --> 00:15:45.320
<v Speaker 2>men around you. This sort of situation happened. So it's

254
00:15:45.440 --> 00:15:48.840
<v Speaker 2>unfortunate because, look, I was one of the people that

255
00:15:48.919 --> 00:15:51.519
<v Speaker 2>thought that Portland had a chance to win this game.

256
00:15:51.600 --> 00:15:54.519
<v Speaker 2>I mean, everything was in their favor. You're at home.

257
00:15:55.200 --> 00:16:00.639
<v Speaker 2>Vancouver has four consecutive losses. As much as Timbers wasn't

258
00:16:00.639 --> 00:16:06.120
<v Speaker 2>doing much winning since September, they I think pulled a

259
00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:09.440
<v Speaker 2>big draw in Bloomitfield and I thought that was going

260
00:16:09.519 --> 00:16:13.519
<v Speaker 2>to help out. But at the same time, and again

261
00:16:13.720 --> 00:16:16.879
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to take anything away from what Phil said,

262
00:16:16.919 --> 00:16:20.679
<v Speaker 2>because they do feel like there's a character component, there's

263
00:16:20.720 --> 00:16:24.759
<v Speaker 2>a hard component that wasn't there last night, because the

264
00:16:24.799 --> 00:16:28.440
<v Speaker 2>team just falls apart after that first goal where you

265
00:16:28.480 --> 00:16:32.519
<v Speaker 2>can't clear the ball. It just bounces around and it

266
00:16:32.600 --> 00:16:36.080
<v Speaker 2>ends up in the back of your net. But Jonathan

267
00:16:36.159 --> 00:16:39.639
<v Speaker 2>Rodriguez was not or should not have been playing that

268
00:16:39.720 --> 00:16:44.519
<v Speaker 2>game since Seattle. In the I don't know, thirty fifth minute,

269
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:47.240
<v Speaker 2>he was hobbling around the field. He was barely pushing.

270
00:16:47.639 --> 00:16:49.720
<v Speaker 2>Phil Nevill said it after the game. He had a

271
00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:53.840
<v Speaker 2>bad ankle. Santiago Moreno another player that had an injury

272
00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:56.120
<v Speaker 2>that came on and wasn't able to do much because

273
00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:58.519
<v Speaker 2>he wasn't fit. So there was a lot of other

274
00:16:58.639 --> 00:17:04.960
<v Speaker 2>components that I think compounded the worst game in Timbers history,

275
00:17:05.480 --> 00:17:07.599
<v Speaker 2>if you want to put it that way. I mean

276
00:17:07.640 --> 00:17:08.680
<v Speaker 2>it was catastrophic.

277
00:17:09.880 --> 00:17:15.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was. And it was Ryan Clark at The

278
00:17:15.079 --> 00:17:19.759
<v Speaker 1>Oregonian after and he posted that within the last hour

279
00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:22.960
<v Speaker 1>looking at what Evanders said on Twitter, and Ryan is

280
00:17:23.000 --> 00:17:26.359
<v Speaker 1>the main beat writer for the Timbers at the Oregonian,

281
00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:29.720
<v Speaker 1>says these tweets from Evander last night of the continuation

282
00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:32.440
<v Speaker 1>of a very real pattern of discord between Timbers players

283
00:17:32.440 --> 00:17:34.200
<v Speaker 1>in the front office in the last three years. It's

284
00:17:34.200 --> 00:17:36.240
<v Speaker 1>not just the Timbers army or a few whiny people

285
00:17:36.279 --> 00:17:41.559
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter for Shieve, Eric Williamson, Santiago Moreno, Ivacic Zuperich

286
00:17:41.720 --> 00:17:45.359
<v Speaker 1>Blanco Aspriya Evander. All these players have either engaged in

287
00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:48.799
<v Speaker 1>public or private disputes with the Timbers, criticized ownership and

288
00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:51.599
<v Speaker 1>or the front office, or left on sour terms. This

289
00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:55.559
<v Speaker 1>is not normal. Ryan Clark posts by the way or

290
00:17:55.799 --> 00:17:59.160
<v Speaker 1>the cost of doing business. Privately, players have expressed to

291
00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:01.599
<v Speaker 1>me a lack of confidence and ownership beyond its handling

292
00:18:01.640 --> 00:18:05.920
<v Speaker 1>of the club's various offield scandals. Several felt slided or

293
00:18:05.960 --> 00:18:10.480
<v Speaker 1>straight up lied to by the front office. These things matter,

294
00:18:10.519 --> 00:18:14.160
<v Speaker 1>club culture matters. The prevailing sentiment is the Timbers underperformed

295
00:18:14.200 --> 00:18:16.480
<v Speaker 1>with a talented roster and Evander, one of the best

296
00:18:16.519 --> 00:18:19.720
<v Speaker 1>players in team history. Saying what happens off the field

297
00:18:19.799 --> 00:18:23.519
<v Speaker 1>reflects on the field should raise several alarm bells, and

298
00:18:23.559 --> 00:18:27.200
<v Speaker 1>so that's what Ryan Clark is following up the conversation

299
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:30.960
<v Speaker 1>with with what a Vander posted ye and that's a

300
00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:31.519
<v Speaker 1>great point.

301
00:18:31.559 --> 00:18:34.480
<v Speaker 2>That's a great point because Timber's front office has had

302
00:18:35.200 --> 00:18:43.000
<v Speaker 2>a gambit of issues and controversies and problems. And yeah,

303
00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:45.519
<v Speaker 2>I mean that that that has to be said. And

304
00:18:46.640 --> 00:18:48.359
<v Speaker 2>as much as I don't condone the tweet at two

305
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:52.279
<v Speaker 2>o'clock and the way that it was phrased, I do

306
00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:54.359
<v Speaker 2>believe that there is a lot of discord. That there's

307
00:18:54.400 --> 00:18:58.519
<v Speaker 2>been a lot of discord. As someone who's close to Aspriga,

308
00:18:59.200 --> 00:19:01.680
<v Speaker 2>and before or he left, I know that he had

309
00:19:01.720 --> 00:19:04.960
<v Speaker 2>concerns as well. And you know, now he's playing for

310
00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:10.480
<v Speaker 2>the best team in Colombia, but quite honestly, there was

311
00:19:10.599 --> 00:19:14.160
<v Speaker 2>that sense of I'm not sure if the front office

312
00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:20.519
<v Speaker 2>is transparent and loyal to their players. So there's definitely

313
00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:23.160
<v Speaker 2>something there. And if he comes from Ryan and you know,

314
00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:27.799
<v Speaker 2>you absolutely gotta believe it. But again, when it comes

315
00:19:27.799 --> 00:19:34.400
<v Speaker 2>to Vander, particularly, Astridia was a guy that would walk

316
00:19:34.440 --> 00:19:38.440
<v Speaker 2>into that field and believe that that shield. I mean,

317
00:19:38.839 --> 00:19:43.039
<v Speaker 2>Esprigia would do everything like right back, striker, winger, whenever

318
00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:46.000
<v Speaker 2>you wanted to put him. He was a locker room guy.

319
00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:48.279
<v Speaker 2>He was all over the field. He was pushing, yelling.

320
00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:54.839
<v Speaker 2>I think Evander, regardless of his immense talent. He could

321
00:19:54.920 --> 00:19:57.039
<v Speaker 2>use some of that. He could use some of that grid,

322
00:19:57.559 --> 00:20:01.440
<v Speaker 2>some of that love for the the shield, for your players.

323
00:20:01.720 --> 00:20:03.279
<v Speaker 2>If it's not for the front office, do it for

324
00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:07.359
<v Speaker 2>the guy next to you, Do it for Ayada who's

325
00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:10.480
<v Speaker 2>all over for China that was trying to keep up,

326
00:20:10.519 --> 00:20:12.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, do it for those players.

327
00:20:13.079 --> 00:20:19.079
<v Speaker 1>All right. So we've had the wildcard round and you

328
00:20:19.200 --> 00:20:21.319
<v Speaker 1>got a thumping by a road team that was supposed

329
00:20:21.319 --> 00:20:24.799
<v Speaker 1>to be a home team. And then what happened here

330
00:20:24.839 --> 00:20:29.200
<v Speaker 1>in this particular footprint. Atlanta United gets in on decision Day,

331
00:20:29.440 --> 00:20:32.960
<v Speaker 1>they win, take care of business, DC lays and Egg,

332
00:20:33.440 --> 00:20:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Philly lays and Egg. Atlanta gets in, and then they

333
00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:40.960
<v Speaker 1>go to Montreal, get a two nil lead, fight to

334
00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:43.279
<v Speaker 1>two to two. Montreal does and then it goes to

335
00:20:43.319 --> 00:20:45.480
<v Speaker 1>PK's they come out the other side. Now they get

336
00:20:45.519 --> 00:20:47.839
<v Speaker 1>Messi and Friends, who they're the only team that got

337
00:20:47.839 --> 00:20:50.319
<v Speaker 1>four points off of Messi and Friends all season long

338
00:20:50.359 --> 00:20:52.759
<v Speaker 1>this year with a draw and a win. What do

339
00:20:52.839 --> 00:20:55.799
<v Speaker 1>you think about how things are stacking up this weekend

340
00:20:55.839 --> 00:20:58.079
<v Speaker 1>with the opening round of the playoffs across the board?

341
00:20:59.480 --> 00:21:03.039
<v Speaker 2>I love it. I mean, narrative wise is amazing. Soccer wise,

342
00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:05.559
<v Speaker 2>is going to be very interesting. Like you said, if

343
00:21:05.599 --> 00:21:09.480
<v Speaker 2>there was a team that pushed Miami in the Eastern Conference,

344
00:21:10.319 --> 00:21:16.839
<v Speaker 2>specifically comparting those games, Atlanta has done it in a

345
00:21:16.839 --> 00:21:19.880
<v Speaker 2>good runner. From this surprised me against the Purple team.

346
00:21:19.920 --> 00:21:23.559
<v Speaker 2>I mean, they came on and they were all over.

347
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:28.640
<v Speaker 2>They were effective, they pushed through and bullied that midfield

348
00:21:29.359 --> 00:21:31.759
<v Speaker 2>that at the time didn't have Wilter, Carterhenna. And then

349
00:21:31.759 --> 00:21:33.319
<v Speaker 2>in this one, look, I'm not gonna lie to you,

350
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:36.400
<v Speaker 2>I had Montreal winning this game. I thought Montreal was

351
00:21:36.440 --> 00:21:38.759
<v Speaker 2>in good form. I thought that Cave and Clark and

352
00:21:39.000 --> 00:21:42.559
<v Speaker 2>Joseph Martinez were playing very well. I thought that Edwards

353
00:21:42.599 --> 00:21:43.920
<v Speaker 2>was a guy that was going to create a lot

354
00:21:43.960 --> 00:21:46.440
<v Speaker 2>of issues on the left side. And for the first

355
00:21:46.839 --> 00:21:50.359
<v Speaker 2>i don't know, twenty five to twenty eight minutes, Montreal

356
00:21:50.480 --> 00:21:53.480
<v Speaker 2>was in there. They were getting forward, they were pushing

357
00:21:53.480 --> 00:21:56.200
<v Speaker 2>the ball, but Atlanta was able to rope a dove

358
00:21:56.240 --> 00:21:58.839
<v Speaker 2>out of that and really be the first one to strike.

359
00:21:59.599 --> 00:22:06.720
<v Speaker 2>And it's just more power too to Atlanta. I really

360
00:22:06.799 --> 00:22:12.279
<v Speaker 2>do believe that if this team can handle and they

361
00:22:12.279 --> 00:22:14.359
<v Speaker 2>can add some players next season, they're going to be

362
00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:17.559
<v Speaker 2>a problem. I don't think that they have enough right

363
00:22:17.599 --> 00:22:19.960
<v Speaker 2>now to be into Miami. I don't think no team

364
00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:21.680
<v Speaker 2>does in the Eastern Conference.

365
00:22:21.400 --> 00:22:21.480
<v Speaker 5>Not.

366
00:22:24.039 --> 00:22:29.279
<v Speaker 2>Even well Columbus perhaps, maybe Columbus perhaps, But I do

367
00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:37.599
<v Speaker 2>feel like Miami has shown you that they can outperform

368
00:22:37.720 --> 00:22:40.119
<v Speaker 2>you even when they go down two goals like they

369
00:22:40.119 --> 00:22:42.480
<v Speaker 2>did against New England. They're the team that has won

370
00:22:42.559 --> 00:22:46.599
<v Speaker 2>the most points when being in a deficit. I feel like,

371
00:22:46.720 --> 00:22:51.480
<v Speaker 2>unless there is an injury to Lionel Messi or Luis Suarez,

372
00:22:51.839 --> 00:22:56.359
<v Speaker 2>I mean, this team should win it all. So when

373
00:22:56.400 --> 00:22:59.839
<v Speaker 2>it comes specifically to Atlanta, I enjoy what they did

374
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:05.279
<v Speaker 2>against Montreal. Props to Valentino, who I don't know if

375
00:23:05.319 --> 00:23:10.039
<v Speaker 2>it will happen, but let's say Valentino can pull it

376
00:23:10.079 --> 00:23:13.799
<v Speaker 2>off against Miami, he might be the coach long term.

377
00:23:13.880 --> 00:23:16.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know, Gard Laggerway is the guy does

378
00:23:16.039 --> 00:23:20.200
<v Speaker 2>in charge right now, and in Seattle he allowed an

379
00:23:20.240 --> 00:23:23.200
<v Speaker 2>internet coach to just keep the job for forever. If

380
00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:27.279
<v Speaker 2>Valentino can do magic and something I know one thinks possible,

381
00:23:27.519 --> 00:23:30.799
<v Speaker 2>then maybe he'll be the guy there. But marn chuck

382
00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:34.480
<v Speaker 2>Ato was really good. Saba, as much as he missed

383
00:23:34.519 --> 00:23:38.799
<v Speaker 2>a couple of opportunities, has been really good. Theorey just

384
00:23:39.480 --> 00:23:43.400
<v Speaker 2>the pressure, the pressing, the runs. There's something there, but

385
00:23:43.440 --> 00:23:45.519
<v Speaker 2>I think Miami is just too much for Atlanta in

386
00:23:45.559 --> 00:23:46.599
<v Speaker 2>this game specifically.

387
00:23:47.079 --> 00:23:52.480
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So running through the matchups themselves tomorrow, Messi and friends.

388
00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:54.559
<v Speaker 1>They're at home. They're a big favorite. Atlanta United comes

389
00:23:54.599 --> 00:23:58.599
<v Speaker 1>to town on a quick turn LAG on Saturday night.

390
00:23:58.640 --> 00:24:01.599
<v Speaker 1>They're the only one that's there, hosting Colorado. They're a

391
00:24:01.599 --> 00:24:03.920
<v Speaker 1>big favorite. I'm still concerned about the injury to Georgie

392
00:24:03.920 --> 00:24:07.319
<v Speaker 1>Mahilovich on decision day and how close to one hundred

393
00:24:07.319 --> 00:24:09.440
<v Speaker 1>percent he'll be. LAG's a big favorite.

394
00:24:10.400 --> 00:24:13.200
<v Speaker 2>What are the numbers on that for La Gua. Actually,

395
00:24:13.440 --> 00:24:16.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm truly curious because I'm getting off early on Friday

396
00:24:16.880 --> 00:24:19.279
<v Speaker 2>just to go play some juice boxes.

397
00:24:19.640 --> 00:24:26.839
<v Speaker 1>Minus two to four on LAG, geez, I would probably

398
00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:27.799
<v Speaker 1>look at a total.

399
00:24:28.640 --> 00:24:29.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, what's the total on that?

400
00:24:30.440 --> 00:24:33.839
<v Speaker 1>So let me check the over under on this one?

401
00:24:34.519 --> 00:24:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Three and a half is a minus one ten.

402
00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:40.960
<v Speaker 2>Wow, they really do not want you playing that game

403
00:24:41.000 --> 00:24:45.319
<v Speaker 2>at all? Yeah, I mean the number say it all LAG.

404
00:24:45.559 --> 00:24:53.279
<v Speaker 2>Despite disappointing last game against Houston and the disappointing overall

405
00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:57.440
<v Speaker 2>punching the gut after Marlin gets that go for LAFC

406
00:24:57.720 --> 00:25:01.279
<v Speaker 2>and they go ahead as number one. Uh, there's just

407
00:25:01.680 --> 00:25:05.880
<v Speaker 2>too much firepower against a Colorado team that has been

408
00:25:06.960 --> 00:25:10.359
<v Speaker 2>rolling in a bad direction. He feels like the wheels

409
00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:15.759
<v Speaker 2>fell off that bus. Cole Bassett also hurt. Sam Vines

410
00:25:15.799 --> 00:25:19.440
<v Speaker 2>also heard. I mean there's a lot of injuries to

411
00:25:19.559 --> 00:25:23.000
<v Speaker 2>a team that I think peaked at one point and

412
00:25:23.039 --> 00:25:24.200
<v Speaker 2>now is in the decline.

413
00:25:24.359 --> 00:25:28.079
<v Speaker 1>Yep. All of the home teams are on the minus

414
00:25:28.119 --> 00:25:32.599
<v Speaker 1>side going through Tuesday. Purple Team favored of a minus

415
00:25:32.599 --> 00:25:36.519
<v Speaker 1>one thirty hosting Charlotte LAFC, minus two to seventeen hosting

416
00:25:36.599 --> 00:25:42.759
<v Speaker 1>Vancouver FC, Cincinnati a minus one ten hosting NYCFC because

417
00:25:42.759 --> 00:25:46.039
<v Speaker 1>the Cincinnati is starting to do the slow fade, Seattle

418
00:25:46.079 --> 00:25:49.720
<v Speaker 1>and minus one thirty five hosting Benny Ball Crew, A

419
00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:54.000
<v Speaker 1>minus one thirty nine hosting Red Bulls RSLA, minus one

420
00:25:54.000 --> 00:25:57.000
<v Speaker 1>toh eight hosting Minnesota United. Of all of those first

421
00:25:57.119 --> 00:26:00.720
<v Speaker 1>round games, what are you staring at when it comes

422
00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:01.839
<v Speaker 1>to what's going to happen?

423
00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:06.359
<v Speaker 2>Man? I like the numbers in Orlando.

424
00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:10.319
<v Speaker 1>What was it minus one thirty to the Purple team.

425
00:26:10.519 --> 00:26:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Charlotte's a plus three eleven draw ninety minute draw is

426
00:26:14.680 --> 00:26:16.680
<v Speaker 1>a plus two ninety seven, So you probably could get

427
00:26:16.759 --> 00:26:18.960
<v Speaker 1>ninety minute draw in that one of the plus three hundred.

428
00:26:19.960 --> 00:26:22.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's kind of what I'm looking at. And look,

429
00:26:22.880 --> 00:26:27.799
<v Speaker 2>Charlotte power to Charlotte, man, I mean they've been really good.

430
00:26:27.799 --> 00:26:32.440
<v Speaker 2>That three zero against DC United was quality holding, ben teketed.

431
00:26:32.519 --> 00:26:36.160
<v Speaker 2>The way they did is no joke. Orlando City has

432
00:26:36.200 --> 00:26:39.319
<v Speaker 2>a hard time when they can't get going, and if

433
00:26:39.319 --> 00:26:42.680
<v Speaker 2>something that Charlotte does is just knowing how to keep

434
00:26:42.680 --> 00:26:45.079
<v Speaker 2>their shape and knowing how to keep guys like a

435
00:26:45.160 --> 00:26:50.720
<v Speaker 2>Kundo Torres getting in high scoring positions and shifting in transition.

436
00:26:50.920 --> 00:26:55.680
<v Speaker 2>So I don't see Angula being as productive on that

437
00:26:55.880 --> 00:26:59.920
<v Speaker 2>white side either. I think that there's a lot of options. Therefore,

438
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:02.839
<v Speaker 2>Orlando at the nine. I would start a wire on

439
00:27:02.880 --> 00:27:04.720
<v Speaker 2>this one as much as from here and Rique has

440
00:27:04.759 --> 00:27:09.640
<v Speaker 2>been really, really good. But I'll probably take the draw

441
00:27:10.480 --> 00:27:13.759
<v Speaker 2>on that first one and maybe go to PKS. Specifically

442
00:27:13.880 --> 00:27:17.400
<v Speaker 2>at home, Orlando tends to struggle at times, so yeah,

443
00:27:17.440 --> 00:27:20.400
<v Speaker 2>I'll go with the draw on the Charlotte game. When

444
00:27:20.440 --> 00:27:26.039
<v Speaker 2>it comes to LAFC and Vancouver, regardless of the numbers,

445
00:27:26.119 --> 00:27:28.000
<v Speaker 2>I would like to see the total on it, but

446
00:27:28.039 --> 00:27:31.039
<v Speaker 2>you got to take LAFC. I think Vancouver as much

447
00:27:31.079 --> 00:27:34.240
<v Speaker 2>as they won this game, and as much as they're

448
00:27:34.440 --> 00:27:36.559
<v Speaker 2>making you feel like they are a choice that could

449
00:27:36.640 --> 00:27:39.559
<v Speaker 2>go out there and fight against LAFC, I think that

450
00:27:39.640 --> 00:27:43.880
<v Speaker 2>this game was very circumstantial and that hat trick by

451
00:27:44.680 --> 00:27:47.559
<v Speaker 2>Ryan Goold is not going to happen against LAFC. I

452
00:27:47.599 --> 00:27:50.440
<v Speaker 2>think LAFC is a sure winning game if you want

453
00:27:50.440 --> 00:27:53.319
<v Speaker 2>to put her in a parlay. But what's the goals

454
00:27:53.400 --> 00:27:53.839
<v Speaker 2>on that one?

455
00:27:53.960 --> 00:27:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Three and a half is a plus one twenty one,

456
00:27:56.039 --> 00:27:57.559
<v Speaker 1>that's where it turns.

457
00:27:57.720 --> 00:28:00.119
<v Speaker 2>Three and a half. Yeah, I'll probably do three and

458
00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:01.680
<v Speaker 2>a half. I feel comfortable with a three and a

459
00:28:01.720 --> 00:28:06.000
<v Speaker 2>half on that one at the very least. In the

460
00:28:06.039 --> 00:28:09.160
<v Speaker 2>Seattle Houston game, Man that that could be an under

461
00:28:09.599 --> 00:28:15.079
<v Speaker 2>and that could be a zero zero draw to a

462
00:28:15.119 --> 00:28:19.119
<v Speaker 2>one one draw. Pushing too pks And this is why

463
00:28:20.000 --> 00:28:23.160
<v Speaker 2>you have two teams that mirror each other completely. They

464
00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:28.200
<v Speaker 2>mirror each others on concepts, both possession based teams. Both

465
00:28:28.240 --> 00:28:30.880
<v Speaker 2>tend to push that right back as far as they can.

466
00:28:31.599 --> 00:28:36.119
<v Speaker 2>Alex rolled in for the Sounders, Dorsey for Houston. As

467
00:28:36.200 --> 00:28:39.680
<v Speaker 2>much as Houston is no juggernaut, they can be very

468
00:28:39.759 --> 00:28:43.279
<v Speaker 2>difficult to score on. I had Mikail in my best

469
00:28:43.319 --> 00:28:47.920
<v Speaker 2>eleven in my votes for Best eleven of the Year

470
00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:50.440
<v Speaker 2>for MLS. I think he's a very good center back.

471
00:28:50.960 --> 00:28:53.880
<v Speaker 2>Having ectroreta bag gives you a lot of control, a

472
00:28:53.880 --> 00:28:57.480
<v Speaker 2>lot of pace, a lot of a guy that can

473
00:28:57.519 --> 00:29:02.839
<v Speaker 2>dominate that midfield with the dog like.

474
00:29:04.480 --> 00:29:06.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, he starts to say something nice and positive

475
00:29:06.920 --> 00:29:12.599
<v Speaker 1>about Houston and it happened again. Yeah, and so, uh so,

476
00:29:12.799 --> 00:29:15.640
<v Speaker 1>let me go through the ref assignments while Nico's down

477
00:29:15.720 --> 00:29:18.200
<v Speaker 1>it back up and we'll get his final comments on

478
00:29:18.359 --> 00:29:22.559
<v Speaker 1>Seattle in Houston. ACH's return I think is big, but

479
00:29:22.640 --> 00:29:25.319
<v Speaker 1>the numbers they're they're kind of shocking. So we'll see

480
00:29:25.319 --> 00:29:28.000
<v Speaker 1>what happens when it comes to that. We do have

481
00:29:28.079 --> 00:29:31.279
<v Speaker 1>our ref assignments. We'll get into that with Nico as well.

482
00:29:31.960 --> 00:29:33.839
<v Speaker 1>So what were you saying about? What were you saying about?

483
00:29:35.000 --> 00:29:36.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm so sorry, but I don't know what's going on.

484
00:29:37.039 --> 00:29:40.319
<v Speaker 2>Just really obsessed me. But yeah, Acchiace is just the

485
00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:43.079
<v Speaker 2>guy that can control the pace of the game. I

486
00:29:43.119 --> 00:29:47.799
<v Speaker 2>feel like Seattle is gonna wanna possess it, He's gonna

487
00:29:47.799 --> 00:29:50.319
<v Speaker 2>wanna retain it, and acchi Achi is a guy that

488
00:29:50.359 --> 00:29:52.599
<v Speaker 2>could really affect that game. So I feel like that

489
00:29:52.680 --> 00:29:55.079
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna cancel each other out. I talked to Alex

490
00:29:55.160 --> 00:29:57.960
<v Speaker 2>Rodan about it. I said, what, what's difficult about playing

491
00:29:58.079 --> 00:30:00.480
<v Speaker 2>a team that mirrors you this much? He's well, that

492
00:30:00.599 --> 00:30:02.279
<v Speaker 2>you kind of know what the guy in front of

493
00:30:02.279 --> 00:30:04.440
<v Speaker 2>who's going to do, and you're trying to beat them

494
00:30:04.440 --> 00:30:06.519
<v Speaker 2>out to that position where you don't want to be

495
00:30:06.599 --> 00:30:09.799
<v Speaker 2>when you attack. So it can really be a defensive game.

496
00:30:09.839 --> 00:30:12.119
<v Speaker 2>So I think this one is out to be a

497
00:30:12.240 --> 00:30:16.200
<v Speaker 2>draw in that first game, or a very low scoring game.

498
00:30:16.240 --> 00:30:18.240
<v Speaker 2>So whatever the overunder is, you probably want to go

499
00:30:18.319 --> 00:30:18.880
<v Speaker 2>under on it.

500
00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:21.000
<v Speaker 1>All right, So here's what we've got for the total.

501
00:30:21.480 --> 00:30:25.240
<v Speaker 1>I'll work my way backward. Three is a plus one

502
00:30:25.359 --> 00:30:28.039
<v Speaker 1>fifty eight, so that's where it turns. Two and a

503
00:30:28.039 --> 00:30:31.799
<v Speaker 1>half is a minus one eleven, two is a minus

504
00:30:31.839 --> 00:30:35.519
<v Speaker 1>two twenty three. One and a half is a minus

505
00:30:35.599 --> 00:30:36.920
<v Speaker 1>three fifty six.

506
00:30:37.400 --> 00:30:41.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah, that's that's some tough scores, but it'll

507
00:30:41.400 --> 00:30:43.000
<v Speaker 2>tell you why I think that this game is going

508
00:30:43.079 --> 00:30:45.759
<v Speaker 2>to go down to the wire. So I'd say your

509
00:30:45.799 --> 00:30:47.680
<v Speaker 2>best bet in this one is maybe trying to go

510
00:30:47.799 --> 00:30:51.359
<v Speaker 2>for a parlay and just hitting some of these top games,

511
00:30:51.359 --> 00:30:55.039
<v Speaker 2>because I think that that draws almost a safe bet.

512
00:30:55.319 --> 00:30:56.799
<v Speaker 2>What's the draw on this one.

513
00:30:56.920 --> 00:31:00.559
<v Speaker 1>Draw on this particular matchup. Let me die back here

514
00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:02.240
<v Speaker 1>a second and I can tell you because it wants

515
00:31:02.240 --> 00:31:04.559
<v Speaker 1>to sit there and give me three steps. Draw is

516
00:31:04.559 --> 00:31:07.839
<v Speaker 1>a plus two seventy seven for Seattle in Houston, ninety

517
00:31:07.839 --> 00:31:08.359
<v Speaker 1>minute draw.

518
00:31:08.920 --> 00:31:11.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I like that. I like that for day

519
00:31:11.319 --> 00:31:11.559
<v Speaker 2>A game.

520
00:31:11.920 --> 00:31:15.240
<v Speaker 1>Okay, all right, So we do have our officiating assignments

521
00:31:15.319 --> 00:31:19.880

546
00:32:45.440 --> 00:32:48.519
<v Speaker 1>wish you nothing but patience, my friend when it comes

547
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:48.400
<v Speaker 1>to that.

548
00:32:48.799 --> 00:32:51.559
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Seattle's coming from a game where, uh, the

549
00:32:51.599 --> 00:32:58.599
<v Speaker 2>officiating was absolutely ridiculous. Even Albert Rusnak called it poor.

550
00:32:58.680 --> 00:33:01.000
<v Speaker 2>But poor doesn't define it. I mean there was some

551
00:33:02.599 --> 00:33:06.559
<v Speaker 2>and look, the yellow card that ultimately ended up getting

552
00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:09.720
<v Speaker 2>oh Bit thrown out of the game was soft, was

553
00:33:09.720 --> 00:33:13.599
<v Speaker 2>inconsistent to what the game had given the referee, but

554
00:33:13.720 --> 00:33:16.400
<v Speaker 2>I was more upset about the moments where advantage should

555
00:33:16.400 --> 00:33:19.839
<v Speaker 2>have been given. Advantage that I see at the rect

556
00:33:19.880 --> 00:33:22.519
<v Speaker 2>level in my daughter's team be given, and this guy

557
00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:24.599
<v Speaker 2>is just blowing the whistle just to blow the whistle.

558
00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:28.839
<v Speaker 2>It looked very Sussman. I honestly hate talking about officiating

559
00:33:29.359 --> 00:33:33.039
<v Speaker 2>because I feel like teams should always do enough to

560
00:33:33.160 --> 00:33:36.680
<v Speaker 2>not allow referee and to ultimately call the game. But

561
00:33:36.880 --> 00:33:38.559
<v Speaker 2>it did mess with the flow of the game. It

562
00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:42.799
<v Speaker 2>did mess with potential moments. But Seattle and all they

563
00:33:42.880 --> 00:33:46.720
<v Speaker 2>they just have to do better at killing games, at

564
00:33:46.720 --> 00:33:49.920
<v Speaker 2>putting them away, and goal scoring has been a huge issue.

565
00:33:50.359 --> 00:33:52.480
<v Speaker 2>They're going to have to figure it out. I spoke

566
00:33:52.519 --> 00:33:55.720
<v Speaker 2>to Brian Smetzer to the fact that there isn't really

567
00:33:55.799 --> 00:34:01.759
<v Speaker 2>a plan B because Danny Musovski has seventeen minutes of

568
00:34:01.799 --> 00:34:08.000
<v Speaker 2>play since August, Rawrydz has one game over thirty minutes

569
00:34:08.159 --> 00:34:13.159
<v Speaker 2>since that time as well. You can't expect your next

570
00:34:13.159 --> 00:34:16.400
<v Speaker 2>guy up to be ready for the big lights when

571
00:34:16.400 --> 00:34:18.800
<v Speaker 2>he has no game rhythm, no game for him. So

572
00:34:18.880 --> 00:34:22.519
<v Speaker 2>we'll see how that pans out for Seattle. That's my

573
00:34:22.599 --> 00:34:27.440
<v Speaker 2>biggest concern facing a team like Houston. Seattle beat Houston

574
00:34:27.480 --> 00:34:30.400
<v Speaker 2>at home a couple of months back, if not a

575
00:34:30.400 --> 00:34:33.719
<v Speaker 2>month back, but there was no Achace, there was no Ponce,

576
00:34:34.199 --> 00:34:37.199
<v Speaker 2>both guys that could be difference makers for Houston. So

577
00:34:37.480 --> 00:34:39.679
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna be a bat. I think that some people

578
00:34:39.719 --> 00:34:45.320
<v Speaker 2>are looking or undermining Houston. That's a serious team.

579
00:34:46.480 --> 00:34:48.239
<v Speaker 1>No doubt about it. What's going on soccer, bar and

580
00:34:48.239 --> 00:34:49.719
<v Speaker 1>polso sports? What do folks need to know?

581
00:34:50.519 --> 00:34:51.800
<v Speaker 2>Well, first of all, I got to figure out I

582
00:34:51.800 --> 00:34:53.599
<v Speaker 2>was going to own my internet and hopefully we have

583
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:58.480
<v Speaker 2>a show that it runs smooth. But yeah, uh post

584
00:34:58.480 --> 00:35:04.440
<v Speaker 2>of sports mainly, you need to stay on pools of sports.

585
00:35:04.880 --> 00:35:07.760
<v Speaker 2>There's gonna be a big announcement today for the Sounders.

586
00:35:08.519 --> 00:35:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Is one that I'm pretty sure I know what it is,

587
00:35:11.199 --> 00:35:15.400
<v Speaker 2>and it's been in the in the works. We ended

588
00:35:15.480 --> 00:35:18.559
<v Speaker 2>up not kind of pushing it and breaking it because

589
00:35:19.760 --> 00:35:22.840
<v Speaker 2>there wasn't a full story there. But uh, just stay tuned.

590
00:35:23.159 --> 00:35:27.119
<v Speaker 2>There's gonna be some interesting news out of Providence. I

591
00:35:27.480 --> 00:35:31.599
<v Speaker 2>cannot tell you for sure because I can't, but but uh,

592
00:35:31.719 --> 00:35:34.000
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna be. It's gonna be. It's gonna be interesting.

593
00:35:34.079 --> 00:35:38.320
<v Speaker 2>It's nothing like it's not new signing or anything of

594
00:35:38.360 --> 00:35:40.920
<v Speaker 2>that nature, but it is something that maybe a lot

595
00:35:40.960 --> 00:35:44.800
<v Speaker 2>of folks were waiting on. So it's just a confirmation

596
00:35:45.000 --> 00:35:48.159
<v Speaker 2>on what I think everybody thought was gonna happen moving

597
00:35:48.199 --> 00:35:52.159
<v Speaker 2>forward for the founders. So stay tuned Pools of Sports

598
00:35:52.199 --> 00:35:55.920
<v Speaker 2>for sure. Soccer bar, in about forty minutes, we'll be

599
00:35:55.920 --> 00:36:01.199
<v Speaker 2>getting into the debacle for uh, where do they go

600
00:36:01.400 --> 00:36:04.880
<v Speaker 2>from here? Diego Chada is out of contract? Will he

601
00:36:05.000 --> 00:36:07.239
<v Speaker 2>be back? All of these things we're going to talk

602
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:10.400
<v Speaker 2>up in a soccer bar, Atlanta United, we'll be talking

603
00:36:10.400 --> 00:36:13.000
<v Speaker 2>about it. How far can they get? What are the chances?

604
00:36:13.400 --> 00:36:15.760
<v Speaker 2>As much as you know it's maybe at a ten

605
00:36:15.800 --> 00:36:20.119
<v Speaker 2>percent possibility, it's not impossible. Uh. And you know sometimes

606
00:36:20.119 --> 00:36:23.400
<v Speaker 2>Atlanta thrives when they're the underdog rather than the big

607
00:36:23.440 --> 00:36:26.320
<v Speaker 2>bat wolf. So it's going to be interesting. So go

608
00:36:26.320 --> 00:36:28.360
<v Speaker 2>ahead and check that out at soccer bar.

609
00:36:28.840 --> 00:36:30.920
<v Speaker 1>What he said at the soccer bar on the two

610
00:36:31.000 --> 00:36:32.719
<v Speaker 1>hundred and eighty character wrap, and as our Buddy four

611
00:36:32.760 --> 00:36:39.840
<v Speaker 1>card says, f e A the moniker for Atlanta United

612
00:36:39.960 --> 00:36:43.719
<v Speaker 1>going forward, quoting Tom Brady here in the playoffs, f

613
00:36:44.360 --> 00:36:51.719
<v Speaker 1>e A blank them all. That's that's that is on posters.

614
00:36:51.800 --> 00:36:55.280
<v Speaker 1>That is that is that is part of the vernacular. Now,

615
00:36:55.599 --> 00:36:59.360
<v Speaker 1>if you see that anything involving Atlanta United, f ea,

616
00:37:00.119 --> 00:37:03.760
<v Speaker 1>that's what it means. Blank them all. That's that's the

617
00:37:03.800 --> 00:37:04.599
<v Speaker 1>attitude right now.

618
00:37:04.760 --> 00:37:09.440
<v Speaker 2>Let me ask you, John, if Atlanta pulls that miracle

619
00:37:09.800 --> 00:37:14.840
<v Speaker 2>and somehow, some way beat Miami, is Rob Balentino the

620
00:37:14.840 --> 00:37:15.880
<v Speaker 2>coach moving forward?

621
00:37:17.519 --> 00:37:20.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, man. I mean, I think Rob has

622
00:37:20.800 --> 00:37:26.039
<v Speaker 1>busted his ass and you will not find a a

623
00:37:27.239 --> 00:37:32.079
<v Speaker 1>bigger support system I think than there are. There are

624
00:37:32.119 --> 00:37:34.639
<v Speaker 1>those of us who've been fairly pragmatic about what's going

625
00:37:34.679 --> 00:37:37.119
<v Speaker 1>on with Atlanda United. We love what Rob and the

626
00:37:37.119 --> 00:37:40.880
<v Speaker 1>Staff of Peace together and have been navigating through all

627
00:37:40.920 --> 00:37:43.800
<v Speaker 1>of this stuff. That is it. That is a Garth decision,

628
00:37:43.960 --> 00:37:49.920
<v Speaker 1>and it will be a Garth decision that will lend

629
00:37:49.960 --> 00:37:53.280
<v Speaker 1>itself to not just next year for this club, but

630
00:37:53.480 --> 00:37:56.679
<v Speaker 1>years down the line. And I will say this, if

631
00:37:56.760 --> 00:38:00.599
<v Speaker 1>if Rob at the end of this run, when that is,

632
00:38:02.320 --> 00:38:07.440
<v Speaker 1>if someone in Major League Soccer wants to hire Rob Valentino,

633
00:38:08.559 --> 00:38:11.079
<v Speaker 1>if it's Atlanta, if it's someplace else wherever, If someone

634
00:38:11.119 --> 00:38:14.280
<v Speaker 1>in Major League Soccer hires Rob Valentino and they are

635
00:38:14.360 --> 00:38:17.840
<v Speaker 1>patient with him, and they give him the resources and

636
00:38:17.920 --> 00:38:20.880
<v Speaker 1>the players that he's looking for, like we've seen in

637
00:38:21.000 --> 00:38:25.079
<v Speaker 1>this run, then you will find that you will have

638
00:38:25.199 --> 00:38:28.159
<v Speaker 1>picked up a tremendous head coach and a staff that

639
00:38:28.199 --> 00:38:31.079
<v Speaker 1>he surrounds himself with because of what it Land United

640
00:38:31.079 --> 00:38:35.199
<v Speaker 1>has navigated through with Rob, gone through with Rob and

641
00:38:35.239 --> 00:38:38.239
<v Speaker 1>the staff to get them to this point. I cannot

642
00:38:38.320 --> 00:38:41.840
<v Speaker 1>give any higher praise to Rob Valentino than a lot

643
00:38:41.840 --> 00:38:44.800
<v Speaker 1>of other folks here. It will be a Garth decision

644
00:38:44.840 --> 00:38:47.400
<v Speaker 1>that will impact what's going on. I mean, Garth has

645
00:38:47.440 --> 00:38:50.920
<v Speaker 1>said things publicly about you know, international experience and things

646
00:38:50.960 --> 00:38:55.119
<v Speaker 1>like that, and so I am confident that Rob, wherever

647
00:38:55.199 --> 00:38:58.719
<v Speaker 1>he is, Atlanta or otherwise, you get a front office

648
00:38:58.719 --> 00:39:00.800
<v Speaker 1>it's patient with him. You get an ownership group that's

649
00:39:00.840 --> 00:39:03.360
<v Speaker 1>patient with Rob. Rob is going to kick some serious

650
00:39:03.400 --> 00:39:04.000
<v Speaker 1>ass wherever.

651
00:39:04.000 --> 00:39:05.920
<v Speaker 2>That is what he said.

652
00:39:08.360 --> 00:39:11.000
<v Speaker 1>But yes, so, but yeah, So if you see in

653
00:39:11.199 --> 00:39:15.960
<v Speaker 1>bright blue letters fea, that is the that is the

654
00:39:16.039 --> 00:39:19.159
<v Speaker 1>rally cry right now here in the Southeastern United States,

655
00:39:19.159 --> 00:39:22.159
<v Speaker 1>involving at Land United. Blank them all, quoting Tom Brad.

656
00:39:22.480 --> 00:39:23.440
<v Speaker 2>I like you, baby.

657
00:39:23.760 --> 00:39:26.400
<v Speaker 1>So that's where we are. Go prepare for your show.

658
00:39:26.480 --> 00:39:28.719
<v Speaker 1>Go get a cup of coffee number three, Love you,

659
00:39:28.760 --> 00:39:30.320
<v Speaker 1>my friend. We'll catch up with you next week

660
00:39:30.719 --> 00:39:31.920
