Thank you. Welcome to the Total Soccero's Major League Soccer Western Conference

2024 preview today. We're previewing all 14 teams in the West to see if St. Louis

can make it a special sophomore campaign, if Seattle will earn their stripes while wearing

stripes, and if the Colorado

Rapids will do anything my name's Ryan Bailey joining me to bring you the best from the

west we've got mr Taylor Rockwell hello hello Joseph Lowry it's me hello it is you

and joining us returning champion David Gus hello David say where David. Say where I am. I'm not in Indiana. Say it. Are you in Indiana? No. Where are you, New York, as the great poet Alicia Keys said, The Concrete Jungle, Where Dreams Are Made of. Did she say it grammatically correctly, that's the question where dreams are made

you'd have to ask usher to ask her because they're very close fair enough fair enough you sounded

delighted to be out of indiana jose uh david it's a it's a fine fine place to be is it not i spent

one full week in indiana it's the second time i've been there in a year and i've had a good time

both times.

And I've eaten some really good food, which I was a little surprised about. But the thing about being from New York, and I think all of you can attest to this, having not been from New York, but coming to New York, is that you feel it. You get off the plane and you can sense it around you.

Is it the trash smell of the urine smell

that makes you sense that you're in New York?

Which one is it?

It is.

Whatever it does, it takes my meter up. It's like drinking a Red Bull. It gives me wings. It's the assault on the senses once you step off the airplane, Taylor. I imagine that's what it is. It's my spidey senses are on full, full alert at all times. The anxiety is what keeps me going.
