| 0:00.0 | Hello, |
| 0:01.0 | Hello, Hello everybody and welcome to the Total Soccer show. |
| 0:25.4 | My name is Taylor Rockwell. |
| 0:26.8 | We've got another USM&T-centric episode for you this week. |
| 0:30.3 | We've also got construction workers next door. |
| 0:32.9 | Hopefully that sound doesn't bleed through too much. |
| 0:35.2 | But if it does, apologies. |
| 0:37.4 | We're breaking down |
| 0:38.2 | three players on this episode who are in the U.S. pool for now, maybe one of them less so later |
| 0:43.7 | on. We're also answering three USM&T-centric listener questions. Before we get to that, |
| 0:49.3 | I should introduce my co-hosts for today up first, a man who I'm assuming is already |
| 0:53.8 | preparing himself for the first leg of the Concaf Champions League final. It's Joe Lowry, Joe. How are we feeling, my friend? I'm ready. I'm feeling confident about the Seattle sounders that are going down to play Pumas in Mexico, then they've got the return leg in Seattle. Marshawn Lynch had a promo video about that second leg. So I mean, I'm ready. Marshon's |
| 1:12.0 | ready. What more do you need? See that. The tiny dog is ready. Oh, that's good stuff. And |
| 1:18.7 | that voice you just heard is good stuff. Rounding out the crew is a lifelong Unem Pumas fan |
| 1:24.4 | who wanted to spend the entire episode discussing his beloved club. |
| 1:28.6 | It's Graham, Ruffin, Graham. |
| 1:30.0 | I will give you a cool $5 if you could name me a single player who plays for Pumas. |
| 1:35.3 | I can only name one because I just looked at their roster. |
| 1:38.7 | And if you do a convincing job of guessing, as in if you just make up a name, there's a |
| 1:42.6 | decent chance I will believe that that's a real player. I mean, I think this $5 is going to stay firmly in your pocket. I mean, I have no idea where to start. I'm afraid. Concaf Champions League has not made it. The broadcast rights have not made it to the UK yet. It's not really a mainstream product yet. But I do know that preamers have decent kits as most League of MECI's teams do have. So maybe I am. Maybe I'm supporting Pumas because I like their kits in Seattle this season. I'm not sure about that kit they've got this year. Although it does look better on Marshaun Lynch. Joe, can you name any Pumas players or one in particular who used to play an MLS? |
| 2:18.8 | Yeah, I was going to say they have Sebastian Sossedo on their team. |
| 2:21.6 | They have a few other relatively high-profile guys that we don't necessarily need to get into on this particular episode. |
