Summary

It’s listener question time! Ryan, Taylor, and Joe combine to answer your lovely inquiries, ranging from under-the-radar Americans who we might see at the Gold Cup, to which active Premier League players are future hall-of-famers, to why fans on non-Big Six clubs should be glad that the Super League isn’t happening, to so much more. You can find the full list of questions down below:

1) With Jozy Altidore and Michael Bradley not on Gregg Berhalter’s Nations League roster, are their national team careers over?

2) Which non-capped USMNT-eligible players could we see in the Gold Cup?

3) Why should fans of non-Big Six teams be happy that the fan outrage against the Super League has essentially maintained the status quo? 

4) Who would win a fictional, retroactive “Hottest Soccer Player” bracket from the 2018 World Cup?

5) Which active Premier League players will be future hall-of-famers?

6) Why doesn’t City Football Group move players through their sister clubs in the same way that Red Bull does?

7) Is it better to find young players who are positionally flexible or who excel in one spot?

We're coming at you like Cleopatra with a listener question show today.

0:59.8

My name is Ryan Bailey, and joining me today is a man who would melt down the Aerodivisi trophy

1:04.6

and give a piece to every TSS listener, if he could, Taylor Rockwell.

1:08.8

I say we melt down all the trophies and give all the pieces to all the different fans. That would be a good way for all of the corporate owners to maybe generate some goodwill because they all need it these days, it seems. Don't they just, don't they just? This story, of course, I'm referring to as IACs winning the Eridivizzi trophy and melting it down into 42,000 tiny pieces, champion stars they called them

1:29.1

and shared them with all 42,000 of their season ticket holders. I'm just hoping this was a replica

1:34.1

trophy because... I did wonder that. You know, say PSV would it next year. They're like, guys,

1:39.5

all 42,000 are you got to send your piece back. We're going to melt it back into a trophy to give

1:43.4

to Einhoven. Sorry. Guys, we've got 41,997. We know there are three of you out there. We need those pieces back. The handle isn't complete. They're going to drop it. Please send them back. Joining Taylor and I is a man who loves soccer almost as much as he hates me asking him to predict the results in soccer. It's Joe Lowry. You're so right, Ryan. You have that ranking exactly right. Taylor, I think as a quick suggestion, if we are trying to do this, TSS melts something down and gives it to people like Ryan talked about, I think it should just be either your mixing board or your mic, something that really has that TSS history, but it's also really useful for you and inconveniences you in a major way. Perfect. I do have the old kind of burnt out mixing board where halfway through recording, we would realize the audio wasn't really working anymore. We could melt that one down. I don't really know how to melt down metal and plastic. I assume just soak in gasoline and set it on fire in my kitchen? That should do it, right? Nope, that's it. Perfect. Taylor, read the room. There's a gas shortage right now. We can't be wasting it on old mixes. Come on. All right. I'll just use rubbing alcohol. No, there's no hand sanitizer shortages that I know of. Yeah, give it time. Give it time. We'll see. But Joe, I do realize... This is one world we live in, huh?

2:34.6

I know.

2:35.1

I know.

2:35.5

It's a different... of. Yeah, give it time. Give it time. We'll see.

2:52.2

But Joe, I do realize... This is a fun world we live in, huh?

2:53.7

I know.

2:54.3

I know.

2:54.6

It's a different adventure every day. Isn't it wonderful? Yeah. Let's just, you know, we'll all melt everything down and start again, just like I acts. That sounds like the thing to do. But Joe, I realize I do always ask you to predict results.

2:50.1

And it just makes me want to do it more every single time.

2:52.6

But I realize you're a man who likes empirical data. And if you had harnessed and modeled that data for predictions, you would have already bankrupted every bookmaker by now. So maybe I should stop doing that. No, Ryan, if it brings you joy, it also, to be honest with you, it brings me joy to kind of make a fuss about it. So I think this could be a really nice symbiotic relationship that we've got going here. Okay, that's good. So who wins the 42,000 pieces of Eridivisi next year, then, Joe? Iax, Iax, Iax, I X. Yep, that's right. I X. They've really banked on that one. That's for sure. That's for sure. I think he also said IAC, IX, IX. Yep, that's right. IX. They've really banked on that one.

3:41.2

That's for sure.
