Speaker 1: All right, so full disclosure. Uh, Nino's looking at looking
Speaker 1: at what I'm up to on the two hundred and
Speaker 1: eighty character app on Fridays, I do high school football
Speaker 1: and so on social media. What we do as a
Speaker 1: part of our on airteam, we shoot, we shoot the
Speaker 1: photos of everything, and hey, we're calling a game airtime
Speaker 1: here and uh, Nicki was hanging out. And Nicki is
Speaker 1: happily married to a former tight end of the Pittsburgh Steelers,
Speaker 1: so uh yeah, she she is. She is a mother,
Speaker 1: and she is one of the best in the business.
Speaker 1: She can handle pretty much anything. But I will definitely
Speaker 1: tell I will definitely tell them married Nicki Notto Palmer
Speaker 1: that Nino Torres has an absolute crush uh on the
Speaker 1: next time I see her. All Right, wow, uh okay,
Speaker 1: didn't know we were going in that direction. Okay. Uh Burrhalter,
Speaker 1: let me let me ask you this, would it not
Speaker 1: mean that? And I had this discussion with Dylan Butler
Speaker 1: yesterday with when Dylan came on, and I would think
Speaker 1: that the assistance that you hire, if you are Burr Halter,
Speaker 1: are going to be just as important, if not more important,
Speaker 1: than your own hire. Knowing that you're going to be
Speaker 1: in charge of both, because if you're going to be
Speaker 1: in charge of the first team, if you're going to
Speaker 1: be in charge of the second team, if you're going
Speaker 1: to be in charge of the academy and the philosophy
Speaker 1: and all of these different things, that unless you figured
Speaker 1: out how to clone yourself at Sloan Kettering, that there's
Speaker 1: no way that you can be in four places at once,
Speaker 1: and that these assistants that you bring in are going
Speaker 1: to have to know what you want and be in
Speaker 1: charge more than they might have been otherwise because of
Speaker 1: you having all of these different responsibilities.
Speaker 2: Otherwise is not going to work. It looks I'm not
Speaker 2: discrediting Greg by any means, but being a national team
Speaker 2: head coach is very different to being a club head coach.
Speaker 2: Was his last gig for a long time, so it's
Speaker 2: going to take some adjusting. And like you said, it's key,
Speaker 2: it's it's crucial. It's fundamental for him to have a
Speaker 2: good supporting cast in that staff that he's gonna have
Speaker 2: to delegate to. Otherwise he's just you know, biting more
Speaker 2: than he can chew, and he could end up coming
Speaker 2: back to you know, making him choke if you will, so, honestly,
Speaker 2: if he doesn't set himself up to succeed with a
Speaker 2: very good staff, someone that he can rely on for
Speaker 2: all the things that you just mentioned, and again it
Speaker 2: could be for various situations. Maybe he has someone that
Speaker 2: is better at developing players. Maybe he has somebody that's
Speaker 2: gonna do things that will give him space to do
Speaker 2: the scouting and the searching and the coaching and the
Speaker 2: soccer module, which we know is so important for greg
Speaker 2: style of play. Everything is gonna come up through the
Speaker 2: academy and all the way to the first team. So
Speaker 2: there's a lot of opponents that, yes, Gret cannot do
Speaker 2: it alone. And I'm sure that he has not just
Speaker 2: the networking but a lot of pool to bring in
Speaker 2: some quality staff members. But yes, I think you're absolutely right.
Speaker 2: Who he surrounds himself with would essentially dictate how good
Speaker 2: he does and how well and how quick he does
Speaker 2: it In Chicago.
Speaker 1: Who should he surround himself with? Any ideas I do
Speaker 1: not you know what would somebody like Lucci be? Uh?
Speaker 1: Would Glucci be a.
Speaker 2: Yeah? You know, that's what I was thinking. I was
Speaker 2: seeing guys like Lucci. I was seeing guys like the Santos.
Speaker 2: But do those guys want to go not backwards because
Speaker 2: the Sonos is right now an assistant, But do you
Speaker 2: want to do that?
Speaker 1: Oh, check your microphone, you mute it. It's like the
Speaker 1: audio died. I don't know what happened. You were in
Speaker 1: the middle of a sentence in the audio died.
Speaker 2: Is it still? Is it still out there?
Speaker 1: It is there, it is, So don't move from that spot.
Speaker 1: Whatever you did that fixed that weird? Okay, So that
Speaker 1: was all right? So you're talking about Lucci.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was saying that I don't know if Lucci
Speaker 2: specifically wants to go backwards, because he's coming from an
Speaker 2: awful situation being exposed and you know he has Egonis
Speaker 2: face after what happened is and will say. I could
Speaker 2: see him wanting a job where he's going to be
Speaker 2: able to redeem himself in some way. So, yes, there
Speaker 2: are guys that we could mention, But do they want
Speaker 2: to go backwards to be part of a staff. I
Speaker 2: don't know. I'm pretty sure he has his own guys
Speaker 2: already ready to go, guys that have helped them at
Speaker 2: the US level, guys that he's worked with in the past.
Speaker 2: I'm sure, that's not going to be a problem guy
Speaker 2: like I don't know, Asra Henderson or something. I mean,
Speaker 2: he's going to have a lot of options there, but
Speaker 2: he's definitely going to need a big team to again
Speaker 2: try to fix a club that has been problematic, not
Speaker 2: because of the coaching, but because of the structure and
Speaker 2: the organization problems that I mean, we can go back
Speaker 2: ten years of issues with Chicago, So it's not as
Speaker 2: simple as just a head coach who is gonna come
Speaker 2: and fix it, all.
Speaker 1: Right, Austin. They finally Rudolfo Bodel finally pulled the trigger
Speaker 1: on Josh Wolf. But he did it with a match
Speaker 1: to go in the season, when you know you're not
Speaker 1: going into the playoffs anyway. And this has been a
Speaker 1: point that I've been asking all of our experts this week. Look,
Speaker 1: if you're and it might just be because I'm being
Speaker 1: a turning into a nicer old man as I you know,
Speaker 1: turn into when I'm one hundred and seventy years old,
Speaker 1: as I am now, I just must be nicer than
Speaker 1: I was in the past. If you're not making the
Speaker 1: playoffs and nothing's gonna change, and your last matches at home,
Speaker 1: why are you sending Josh Wolf away with one match
Speaker 1: left in the season. Just say that you're not gonna
Speaker 1: renew his contract, Thank Josh for his time, Let him
Speaker 1: have the home match on Saturday, let him get his
Speaker 1: lap with his you know family. Why not do that
Speaker 1: unless you think that you've really got to jump on
Speaker 1: somebody as the new head coach. I mean, why why
Speaker 1: let somebody go knowing you're not going to renew him
Speaker 1: with a match to go and that last matches at home.
Speaker 1: It just it struck me as odd.
Speaker 2: I call it smoke, smoke and mirrors. You're trying to
Speaker 2: send a message, You're trying to seem like you were
Speaker 2: not happy with the situation, and now you are pulling
Speaker 2: the trigger. But I agree with you. I think it's
Speaker 2: the wrong decision. I think that, uh, there is no
Speaker 2: reason why you would do this right now, because you're
Speaker 2: not going to hire a guy tomorrow. You're not going
Speaker 2: to hire a guy next week. You're probably not going
Speaker 2: to hire a guy next month because you're going to
Speaker 2: need to follow a protocol if you want to get
Speaker 2: the right guy to interview X amount of candidates, see
Speaker 2: what you want to get out of him. But I
Speaker 2: think this all goes back to similar to Chicago, the
Speaker 2: problems in Austin have been up top as well. Uh
Speaker 2: that there's not a ton of issues with with the
Speaker 2: recruiting and the scouting and the sporting director and all
Speaker 2: kinds of things that you know, I'm not I wouldn't
Speaker 2: put it past Rodolpho to want to coach this team,
Speaker 2: you know, himself moving forward. I mean it's it's that
Speaker 2: sort of situation, uh, that that that that Austin is
Speaker 2: in and and that's why I think that the issues
Speaker 2: with Austin are specifically beyond the coaching staff. So to
Speaker 2: your question, the only logical explanation is that you want
Speaker 2: to make a statement and send a message that you
Speaker 2: want to happy you wanted to get him off. But
Speaker 2: it makes no difference, It makes no changes. And I
Speaker 2: don't think they're going to hire anybody within the next month.
Speaker 1: Well unless it's somebody that you really want to jump
Speaker 1: on that might be a part of the old City
Speaker 1: Football group. Group. Where is it domint On? Is it
Speaker 1: Patrick Vieira? Is it somebody with ties to cfg that
Speaker 1: you might have known in the past that wants to
Speaker 1: come back and be a part of everything. That's The
Speaker 1: only thing I can figure is that you're trying to
Speaker 1: to jump the line and hire somebody that you think
Speaker 1: would want to jump and be a part of things
Speaker 1: that you can announce literally like either the last day
Speaker 1: of the regular season as a part of the process, Hey,
Speaker 1: it's our last home match and here's our new head coach,
Speaker 1: or do it like the day after the regular season
Speaker 1: when you know you're not making it something like something
Speaker 1: in there. It's like there's a there's a there's a wire.
Speaker 1: I think that that isn't quite connecting here. And I
Speaker 1: don't know if you're trying to jump the que on
Speaker 1: somebody or if you're going to make an announcement or
Speaker 1: you just wanted to be you know, you wanted to
Speaker 1: just kick the guy out. I don't know which one
Speaker 1: of those options is the option here.
Speaker 2: Now you just wanted to get him out. And again,
Speaker 2: it's all smoking mirror. It's you portraying that you were
Speaker 2: doing your job and that you had a expectation and
Speaker 2: a level. If you wanted to fire him and you
Speaker 2: were thinking about moving on, you should have done it
Speaker 2: halfway through this season. You should have done it when
Speaker 2: there were issues with Fagun dish and there were issues
Speaker 2: with the Ruzie and all these things that came up.
Speaker 2: You had a way out, you had a way to
Speaker 2: get and look me and you have talked about it
Speaker 2: as much as we appreciate and can give all the
Speaker 2: credit to a guy like Wolf because of his IQ
Speaker 2: and how prepared he is and the soccer he provided.
Speaker 2: Within the first few seasons, you could see that it
Speaker 2: was time to go and are trying to fall apart.
Speaker 2: So if you're going to pull the plug, you should
Speaker 2: have done it a lot sooner. And look, media members
Speaker 2: right now, we're taking so much heat when he comes
Speaker 2: to this sort of thing. Because I don't know if
Speaker 2: you've heard about in South America, Rigardoca basically told the
Speaker 2: media that we cannot talk to him about soccer because
Speaker 2: we are not coaches and we don't deserve to be
Speaker 2: in his presence and don't ask me, don't talk. They
Speaker 2: try to debate with you because I'm a coach and
Speaker 2: you're not, and I just think that's ridiculous. But regardless
Speaker 2: of we do gotta give them the respect and that
Speaker 2: where I'm not gonna say they say that I know
Speaker 2: more than any coaching MLS, including a guy like wolf,
Speaker 2: but you saw things coming from the outside in. It
Speaker 2: seemed like there was a time for a change, and
Speaker 2: he should have happened a lot sooner than one game
Speaker 2: before the season ended.
Speaker 1: There's one match in the Western Conference this weekend to
Speaker 1: get everybody to thirty three before Decision Day happens next
Speaker 1: weekend where we get to watch what's gonna happen involving
Speaker 1: LA and Vancouver. LAFC gets to play match thirty three.
Speaker 1: They need it to separate themselves from Seattle and from
Speaker 1: Salt Lake and the three and the four, so they
Speaker 1: can at least have a puncher's chance on Decision Day
Speaker 1: going up against LAG with this one match to go,
Speaker 1: or too if you're talking about LA and Vancouver, we
Speaker 1: knew it was going to be a street fight trying
Speaker 1: to figure out positioning, and it hasn't disappointed even with
Speaker 1: this match in hand that's going to be played this weekend.
Speaker 1: Seattle's a part of that top four. You just don't
Speaker 1: know where you're going to be.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was interesting the way things played out. Seattle
Speaker 2: surprised me. Timbers disappointed me things played out the way
Speaker 2: they did. Vancouver's had issues of their own LAFC picked
Speaker 2: it up there at the end, So you know, there
Speaker 2: was a lot of fluctuation when it came to the
Speaker 2: inertia the teams had at some point of the season.
Speaker 2: And yet this is a big one, I mean, And
Speaker 2: the funny part about this one is that both Vancouver
Speaker 2: and LAFC have a ton of guys missing because of
Speaker 2: the FIFA window, right, And I would say that LAFC
Speaker 2: still has the upper hand because they do have the
Speaker 2: likes of Bo Goods, and they do guys of Jeru,
Speaker 2: and they have a Twist and they have Tilman, and
Speaker 2: they have all of these guys that are still pretty
Speaker 2: good if you ask me. In the other hand, Vancouver
Speaker 2: is missing six guys that are not just key, but
Speaker 2: the next guy up as a big drop off. So
Speaker 2: no no Rob Gold, no Dta, no Ali. I mean,
Speaker 2: there's a lot of players here that are not gonna
Speaker 2: be part of that team. Uh, you know Kubas, who's
Speaker 2: so so important for that midfield. So I think that
Speaker 2: Vancouver is in a bad position and I think they're
Speaker 2: gonna end up losing this game regardless of who LAC
Speaker 2: puts on the field. They're gonna play with a three
Speaker 2: man back line. They're gonna be very meticulous about how
Speaker 2: they're gonna approach this game because they're also not going
Speaker 2: to open up against Vancouver and allow a goal to
Speaker 2: go in and then allow Vancouver to just kind of
Speaker 2: sit back and hold. So las is gonna work their magic.
Speaker 2: They're gonna get this game. And unfortunately, when he comes
Speaker 2: to the roster depth and roster talent, la If he
Speaker 2: just has more of it. So are they going to
Speaker 2: miss Buanga? Sure, Olivera, absolutely, Lajoja Martinez. That's coming from
Speaker 2: a couple of great games one, but the players that
Speaker 2: elifc has are just gonna be able to come through.
Speaker 2: And I think Charunduo did a good job at rotating
Speaker 2: his squats a couple of times. I think he's doing
Speaker 2: a good job at closing the season the right way.
Speaker 2: So Eli if he's gonna be able to take down one.
Speaker 2: And I don't know if you want to talk about
Speaker 2: the Columbus and and and in New England, but that's
Speaker 2: another game that it's going to be interesting because Coch
Speaker 2: is gonna be with Columbia. UH. There's a lot of
Speaker 2: other guys that are part of that uh international call ups,
Speaker 2: including a guy like SHOLTI we know what happened last
Speaker 2: time against the Sounders when he wasn't there, So how
Speaker 2: does that play out? That's going to be an interesting one.
Speaker 2: But I do think Columbus and stuff holding onto that
Speaker 2: game with a draw and and just at least at
Speaker 2: some points to their going back to the standings. In general,
Speaker 2: I think that Vancouver is gonna have to play themselves
Speaker 2: into this thing. I think that that Sounders Timbers game.
Speaker 2: We'll talk about that probably next week, but that's gonna
Speaker 2: that's gonna be a fun decision day for the Western Conference.
Speaker 2: But credit credit to a team like the Sounders that
Speaker 2: was able to put it together and grind out some points,
Speaker 2: some performances. That win in Colorado was very good. Paul
Speaker 2: Rockcroft has become a rock star. I mean he's been
Speaker 2: on real unbelievable. That Colorado game was fantastic. He was persistent,
Speaker 2: he was defiant, he couldn't be held. He puts and
Speaker 2: creates at least four or five opportunities that Seattle can
Speaker 2: put away. So that's gonna be Seattle's Achilles heel. Can
Speaker 2: they kill games? Can they finish them off? Can they
Speaker 2: really get the goals that they're creating because Jordan Morris
Speaker 2: is in a little bit of a funk you side
Speaker 2: in this one where he has a it was a
Speaker 2: difficult one. It was a difficult one. He gets a
Speaker 2: pass a little bit later than I think he expected it,
Speaker 2: a little bit quicker than I think he expected it,
Speaker 2: and he puts a shot in front of goal that
Speaker 2: doesn't go his way. He's banging the ground. He's frustrated
Speaker 2: because he wanted that goal. So we'll see how Seattle
Speaker 2: can manage that when he comes to the first round
Speaker 2: of the playoffs.
Speaker 1: Okay, two more questions, and one of them has to
Speaker 1: do with Tacoma defiance because we now know the playoff
Speaker 1: matchups and next pro obed Vargas named for the twenty
Speaker 1: two under twenty two. What's it been like to see
Speaker 1: obed Vargas continue to grow and evolve to where he is,
Speaker 1: even if we take him out of this list that
Speaker 1: was put forth by Major League Soccer. What's it been
Speaker 1: like for you to see obed Vargas grow to where
Speaker 1: he is as a part of the impact there in Seattle.
Speaker 2: He's been a privilege and it's been a learning experience
Speaker 2: for me just watching a player come up through the
Speaker 2: system and provide and grow in a way that he's
Speaker 2: not just a starter. He is a high contributor. I
Speaker 2: think that he's way too low on that list. I
Speaker 2: cannot believe, and I don't have the list in front
Speaker 2: of me, but I can't believe that a guy like
Speaker 2: McGlenn is on top of him a guy like Redondo
Speaker 2: looking I understand. I understand that the talents and the
Speaker 2: potential is the reason probably why they're above him. And
Speaker 2: again McGlenn is not a guy that I will put
Speaker 2: above Ovid Vargas. But but when it comes to contributions
Speaker 2: and what you actually did throughout the season, other than
Speaker 2: Diego Luna, there isn't many guys that at his age
Speaker 2: and in that list have done what Ovid has done.
Speaker 2: And nobody has done it at center midfield. He's done
Speaker 2: it out wide on the way and he defends, he pushes,
Speaker 2: he processes, he creates opportunities. I was talking to another
Speaker 2: player who's and I'm not gonna say his name, but
Speaker 2: he says he reminds him a lot of Nicolesto Darro
Speaker 2: and it's kind of funny that that that you that
Speaker 2: that comparison was made because he does have a lot
Speaker 2: of that. I'm going to tear the field. I'm going
Speaker 2: to get everywhere, I'm going to get forward, I'm going
Speaker 2: to defend. I'm going to do everything possible. He has
Speaker 2: the creativity, uh he he has the vision and the
Speaker 2: technical ability to put both through. So it's been a
Speaker 2: surreal experience because from his family circle, his dad who's
Speaker 2: very involved with his career, with his development, who coached
Speaker 2: them at a young age, and watching how excited he's been.
Speaker 2: Not only that he's as high as he is in
Speaker 2: that list and the fact that he's an undeniable starter
Speaker 2: for Seattle, but the Color to Mexico Senior team was big, right.
Speaker 2: I mean that's the thing that he's been searching for.
Speaker 2: He made the switch of federations from the US to Mexico.
Speaker 2: That has played dividends. And now he gets a call
Speaker 2: up and he's going to be working under a guire
Speaker 2: in another Mexican legend in the defender from Barcelona, Marquess Jesus.
Speaker 2: So it's definitely an experience that he is going to
Speaker 2: help him even more so the two conclusions, I think
Speaker 2: he in my opinion, he should be at least third
Speaker 2: in that twenty two Under twenty two list in my opinion,
Speaker 2: and like I said, the only other player that I
Speaker 2: would vote for new for young player is Diego Luna.
Speaker 2: But if Obett gets this team going against Portland, is
Speaker 2: a contributor, is someone that is influential, and then in
Speaker 2: the first round of the playoffs he does it, I'm
Speaker 2: definitely voting for oh But regardless of whether anybody else.
Speaker 1: Does or not, He's Kromowsky is six, Rodondo is five,
Speaker 1: Brian Gudieris is four, McGlenn is three, Luna is to
Speaker 1: Diego Gomez from Messi and Friends is number one.
Speaker 2: Absolutely give me looking down just standing Goms because he
Speaker 2: also has like fourteen hundred minutes played to be quite honest.
Speaker 2: But the talent, what he's done, the impact, I'll I'll
Speaker 2: let you slide, Diego Goldman, I'll let you slide, and
Speaker 2: then Diego Luna, and then you have to put over.
Speaker 2: In my opinion, so I know that there isn't a
Speaker 2: clear definition of what we're looking for when it comes
Speaker 2: to the U twenty two list, But I'm gonna look
Speaker 2: for impactful players. I'm gonna look for, uh, the youngest
Speaker 2: player in the list. If I'm not mistaken. That's doing
Speaker 2: more than half of these players in this list. So
Speaker 2: I am just very high on Ovid bargains. I think
Speaker 2: that he's gonna be gone within the next year. Uh
Speaker 2: after plub broke Cup. I think he's gonna have a
Speaker 2: huge expose, a huge you know. Uh yep, that he
Speaker 2: could just show his talent and from there on, I
Speaker 2: think the team is going to move on and allow
Speaker 2: him to go to Europe and probably have a very
Speaker 2: good career.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kevin Sullivan is eighteen on the list for three
Speaker 1: matches and ten minutes for Philadelphia Union at the age
Speaker 1: of fifteen. So that's all right. So last question is
Speaker 1: about Tacoma Defiance. Defiants are in the playoffs in MLS
Speaker 1: next Pro. The matchups are next weekend, ten days from now,
Speaker 1: and it's ten o'clock where at Starfire, Ventura County goes
Speaker 1: to take on Tacoma Defiance and they had to wait
Speaker 1: to figure out who their opponent was because they're the
Speaker 1: four seed. It was I thought it was going to
Speaker 1: be crazier in the East than it was in the West,
Speaker 1: but North Texas picked up the white Caps, so it's
Speaker 1: one versus seven. Saint Louis City SC two picked the
Speaker 1: five in LAFC two. Then it was the town which
Speaker 1: used to be lowst dose and they get Dynamo does
Speaker 1: and then it's four and six. So one v seven,
Speaker 1: two v five, three v eight and four v six.
Speaker 1: When it comes to Tacoma, specifically, for someone who has
Speaker 1: not seen Tacoma this year, who is who is someone
Speaker 1: in the the Nico spots shadow, It's like, oh, here's
Speaker 1: who I should watch when it comes to Tacoma Defiance
Speaker 1: that should be making an impact in the next year
Speaker 1: or so. At the parent club.
Speaker 2: That is a tough one because there are a lot
Speaker 2: of good players. I like Kris Kris Akino is a
Speaker 2: guy that has come up and has done some wonderful
Speaker 2: things throughout the season. I think he's, uh the next
Speaker 2: player that's gonna get a chance up when he comes
Speaker 2: to the first team. Uh. He's a creative midfielder that
Speaker 2: has a lot of range, that can do a lot
Speaker 2: of things. Uh. So he's an interesting one. I think
Speaker 2: gold Miz is a guy that's been very productive for
Speaker 2: this team as well, but I think the defensive components
Speaker 2: back there, that's what really gives this Tacoma Defiance a
Speaker 2: lot of leverage to do what they do, and I
Speaker 2: think that we should focus a little bit on that.
Speaker 2: I mean, they're coming in uh from you know, some
Speaker 2: positive results throughout the season, and one of the things
Speaker 2: that they've been able to do is that just that
Speaker 2: that that ability to just kind of hold teams back
Speaker 2: and be able to be very disciplined in the backside.
Speaker 2: Uh So, you know, Stewart Hockey is the guy that's
Speaker 2: been working with this team. He's a guy that signed
Speaker 2: to the first team. He's very young right now, he's
Speaker 2: the U twenties for the US best national team. So
Speaker 2: when you have those sort of components there, I think
Speaker 2: those are some of the guys that I think are
Speaker 2: gonna end up being important. They were. Sario's a guy
Speaker 2: with a lot of experience that can definitely provide some
Speaker 2: offensive not just goals, but holding the ball, his hold
Speaker 2: up play, his link up play. So I think that
Speaker 2: there's some of the guys that have been more visually interesting.
Speaker 1: To me, and that's why we bring you in to
Speaker 1: talk about these kinds of things. Ten o'clock. Next Sunday,
Speaker 1: it is to come a Defiance hosting Ventura County as
Speaker 1: MLS next Pros opening round starts. Hit the promo because
Speaker 1: I know you've got to go. You're about a half
Speaker 1: hour out from your next thing.
Speaker 2: Yes I am. We are getting ready to embark on
Speaker 2: the U twenty two list as well at Soccerbar obviously
Speaker 2: all in Spanish. We're going to be providing our candidates
Speaker 2: for end of the year awards in MLS. We're all
Speaker 2: going to give two candidates each for each one of
Speaker 2: those awards. We're going to really get into some outside
Speaker 2: component things because we only have two games to talk
Speaker 2: about in MLS, so we're going to talk a little
Speaker 2: bit about that. We're going to get into some US
Speaker 2: men's national team talk and the two friendlies against Panama
Speaker 2: and Mexico. Who are the players that we're kind of
Speaker 2: looking for. What are the players that my shine might
Speaker 2: be interesting now in the Pochettino era, So go ahead
Speaker 2: and check that out. In pools of sports we do
Speaker 2: have right now. Bryan Smetser talking about the winning Colorado
Speaker 2: the end of the season, the difficulties that maybe having
Speaker 2: a team that's on a row and with some really
Speaker 2: good inertia to be stopped for a long time, and
Speaker 2: you know how to keep them going. He said that
Speaker 2: there's gonna be a scrimmage that's going to be prepared
Speaker 2: and try to get the team going. But he said
Speaker 2: it's not the same. It's it's not the same to
Speaker 2: just being competitive play. So go ahead and check that
Speaker 2: out Apples and Sports. That's a funny one too, because
Speaker 2: it ended abruptly because a fire alarm went off at
Speaker 2: the building and we had to kind of go away
Speaker 2: on that end, But definitely interesting. Go ahead and check
Speaker 2: that out of Apples and sports.
Speaker 1: All right, get out of here, go get your coffee,
Speaker 1: go cool off, and we will see you next week,
