| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Allocation Disorder. I am Sam Staskell joined, as always, by my friend and colleague Paul Tornoreo. Paul, we have a pretty MLS-E. We have a pretty allocation disordery show. |
| 0:22.2 | We have some kind of like, we have, should we call it like a set piece? |
| 0:26.1 | We got a set piece plan for you guys. |
| 0:27.9 | A couple of them. |
| 0:28.5 | Yeah, I think we're just trying to lean a little bit back into the origins of allocation disorder, |
| 0:33.9 | which is the extreme nerdiness over which we initially bonded Sam and our love of |
| 0:38.8 | the dumb rules that exist in MLS and the fact that we have sadly devoted a portion of our |

| 1:34.1 | league. |
| 1:35.1 | Miss my air quotes there. |
| 1:36.7 | There they are. |
| 1:38.0 | And whether or not that's actually accurate or not. |
| 1:40.4 | And then we're going to have kind of a little back and forth debate rat tat tat for three like most influential, most impactful signings in MLS history, but like not in the traditional sense. |
| 1:55.1 | Three of our favorite impactful signings. |
| 1:58.3 | There we go. |
| 1:59.0 | We're going to put our spin on it. |
| 2:00.2 | So, so a fun show plan for you guys today. |
