Summary

Horrible night in Toronto. Failure, embarrassment. Once again the citizens of the United States of America are encouraged to forget about the U.S. men's national team entirely, and comprehensive irrelevance looms.

Welcome to the scuffed podcast. I'm Adam Bells in Minneapolis. With me is Greg Velasquez and

0:06.1

Des Moines. We talk about U.S. men's soccer. Holy smokes.

0:25.0

Greg, what's going on man?

0:28.0

Bells, I'm actually still in the eighth minute of this game Mark Anthony Kay just got

0:31.9

subbed off, terrible blow for Canada.

0:34.0

Surely though, smooth sailing for the US men's national team from here.

attacking talent. They didn't do anything special in this game. Did you think they

1:39.5

did? No, they did as much special in this game as Kirasau has done against us in the Gold Cup, which is to play comfortably against our very comfortable defense.

1:50.0

They exploited some mistakes that we made and took clear easy advantage of them because they are a competent side and being a competent side is enough to give you a pretty good chance of beating the U.S. men's national
