All right, everybody. Welcome back, Sam's Army episode 2.208. We got a lot to talk about this week. We're going to start out with headlines where we got US men's national team news, women's World Cup and El Classico craziness.

0:19.0

Then weekly, what if Rexim versus Tatlim? Premier League London Town is falling down. Final table predictions and city arsenal preview of the biggest game of the season. And I'm sure if Mike he was here, he would say his life. Rest of world, we got MLS minute US Open Cup shoutouts and Champions League plus a quick little look at the Bundesliga and then stop at time with Ivan Tony's best bets and everyone's favorite segment goes.

0:48.0

Now it is time to welcome in this week's distinguished panel of beauties. Looks like for a minute we're going to have the whole crew here, but we got a last minute scratch and Mikey. So still got a great crew. Of course, first up, we got Tyler Terrance, fresh off calling NYC versus Dallas in NYC. And everybody knows what New York's all about. So I'm not going to ask you the question that I've been asking you every week, you know, what's the best and worst about your trip. I'm going to switch it up here and say, how much

1:18.0

do you, as a commentator, hate birthday games, where you basically everybody looks the exact same. And you know, they're not wearing a normal jersey color. How much do you hate that?

1:33.0

You know, something I thought you were going to ask me how much I make before taxes originally. So I'm glad that this is the question instead of that.

1:42.0

Okay, so first of all, we're calling the game in city field on a baseball field, right? You're behind home plate. And the games being played in the outfield.

1:51.0

Quite literally 400 feet away if they're attacking one side of the goal. And I'm struggling to call to choose whether I want to watch the monitor or watch the game. And on top of that, all these mother fuckers are wearing the same color jersey and not the normal stuff that I'm used to seeing.

2:09.0

Play your identification from our standpoint. It is a fantastic initiative. Do not get me wrong. Anybody from MLS if you're watching. I love the kids. They're fantastic. I love what we're trying to do with them. But strictly for me for the only two people at each game who cared.

2:23.0

It disrupts my rhythm in terms of being able to pick out guys because of how their other kids match up against their hair and their boots and so many different little things that I'm subconsciously picking up on to be able to identify players.

2:35.0

It was a nightmare. I hated it. But love the cause. We're all about it.

2:39.0

Well done. Well done. I thought I was going to maybe be able to paint you in a corner there with, you know, hating Earth Day and loving fossil fuels. But you know what? You did a pretty good jet diplomatic as always.

2:51.0

Next up, we got Tommy McGunner back from his business trip to Sacramento, where he gave the public a hard battle, but offense.

3:03.0

You know, you guys are going to score a goal at some point. But have you thought this is your question here. Have you guys thought about pulling the move? Who was it? Tony Spirano, who was the interim coach with Oakland Raiders.

3:15.0

He took a ball and he literally buried it in the ground as a way of forgetting the past and focusing on the future. And maybe sworn some points. If you start about doing something drastic to really just sort of get your offense going.

3:29.0

Well, we plan turf. So I find it really. You could find out you. Okay. God damn it. And part of me doesn't want to dig up keyword and see what's under there.

3:41.0

I might be a whole lot worse than a soccer ball underneath that field. Yeah, that might not be a bad idea. Some sort of like satanic ritual or something. I don't know.

3:54.0

It works for Phil Jackson too. So yeah, you guys got to do so. I think you guys. I think that there's oil underneath there. And I think that if you guys dig, you'll hit it.

4:02.0

And then Detroit City will literally be by their way to be the first American team to buy their way into Champions League.

4:07.0

It's like that would be pretty cool. There is a Ford plant and like an old railroad that are like right behind the stadium. And there's an old Negro league stadium right across the street.

4:20.0

So there's there's something deep in that ground. So it might not be a bad idea. There's there's something historic there. That's worth money.

4:27.0

I just got to look into this. You got to get some gold somehow. And I think that might be might be the way to do it.

4:32.0

Last never lease Mitchell Goulet aka overtime Mitch rocking the Gremio kit loving that your question. And I feel like I may be double and back.
