Hello, everybody and welcome to soccer 101. My name is Taylor Rockwell, and we have a bonus episode for you this week, because

last week I sat down with my buddy Elliot Barr. He hosts the River City 93 podcast, and he hosts

the Can I Kick It podcast. There may be several more, Elliot, Elliot Hustles. But Can I Kick

It is the one that I was on last week. I think it was meant to be about a 30-minute

conversation about why leagues don't do a better job of combating racism and kind of what they've

tried to do, leagues around the world. It kind of spiraled. I think we went 90 minutes in total. So

instead of Elliott releasing all of that in one big chunk, we figured he'll release part one in his feed.

So it's over on Can I Kick It? It's episode number 70. And then this would be part two here on Soccer 101. I would say listen to them in sequential order. That makes probably the most sense. But thanks so much for listening. I hope you all enjoy and talk to you next week. That'd be the

incident in 2010

where this is a team

that just came off a World Cup final,

but the whole team goes to crap at the South Africa World Cup. But all the focus is on Patrick

Rear, Terry Henri, talking about how they are ripping the team apart and how we need to become

more French and we need need to become more French

and we need to bring in more French people, you know.

And just seeing that coverage, because we did an episode on it, it's just, we, when you look

in league, this is a league that kind of reminds me once again of like the Premier League

about how they have

the information out there but are the actions truly being done and that's why I find myself

question a lot of the time it's like all right you say you're doing this but what actions

are being done yeah yeah I mean and I think I don't really know which league I would say

takes the most action or does the most I'm not sure any of them do a great job. I feel like U.S. soccer, if anything, has tried more recently to do some things. But even there, I don't know. There was a thing about how they were going to, like, ban Mexico from playing in the U.S. if they did the chant again. And it's just like, I don't know if y'all are actually going to do that or if that's just a thing you're saying because it's good PR.
