0:00.0	Welcome to the Scuff Podcast where we talk about US soccer. It was the 75th edition of USA versus Mexico and let's just say it wasn't in the top 10 all time for the rivalry
0:26.2	We got a draw on a late heseus for error equalizer several pretty bad performances across the field in my opinion and a couple
0:34.3	interesting cameos and a wrinkle or two well first of all Greg how are you I'm
0:40.3	alright man I feel like it would be interesting to try to do a bottom 10
0:44.4	installment of US Mexico from maybe some people who've been watching for a long time

1:50.4	Because for me that was the second or probably the second biggest takeaway.

2:08.7	Yeah. Are you depressed about a whole summer of Hudson Ball yet?
2:14.0	No, I mean this doesn't depress me about a summer of Hudson Ball.
