That’s So MLS

Return to Hurtado Island

Nick and Bates talk away trips to Montreal, the Whitecaps' record-setting performance in a loss to San Jose, a blowaway El Trafico and not fighting your own fans, as well as a starmaking display in Kansas City.

Oh Look! An Expansion Side!

What would the tail end of the MLS season be without the announcement of another club?! We talk about the news from St. Louis, some reorganization at the Whitecaps, and of course all the games and news from the game week.

Giving Fascists the Red Card

There was some great footy this week but unfortunately supporters had to reckon with getting tossed out of stadiums, receiving bans, and having their belongings confiscated, all because the league can't decide how it feels about supporting fascists, Nazis, and violent thugs. We do talk about the golazos, the continued dominance of some familiar faces, and the firing of two MLS coaches, one who couldn't keep from blowing his lid and the other because he lost to Philadelphia?

Nine is Not Enough

Andrew and Nick talk Alejandro Bedoya's call to end gun violence, DC's busy transfer day and a goal-filled *checks notes* Colorado Rapids game?

Plague Season

Nick, back from international duty, and Bates tackle the newest calamity plaguing the Rapids, Whitecaps getting a point, the All-Star Game and the post-World Cup NWSL bump.

Competing Golazos

With Nick on international duty, Ricardo Bortolon returns to talk with Bates about El Trafico, bad boy Zlatan, Whitecaps, and the NWSL homecoming matches.

Vako Time

Andrew and Nick talk last weekend's MLS games, including Vako leading a defeat of the Galaxy, Vancouver in the doldrums and relationships between referees and coaches.

Always Look On The Bright Side of L(AFC)ife

While some of our favorite teams continue to struggle, the LAFC juggernaut continues to roll (mostly over us) and San Jose, New England, and Cincinnati (?!) all begin to find their form. We also discuss what, if anything, changes now that the Women's World Cup is over.
