Summary
The MLS transfer window closed without a peep, and the guys ... just kidding. There's nothing like a blockbuster to get the conversation started, and Kei Kamara's trade from Columbus to New England after that outburst certainly qualifies. Andrew and Calen check in from Venice Beach, while Matt chimes in from after. Plus, don't miss the midweek breakdown and recommended watching this weekend.
In the second segment, Andrew stops by StubHub Center to chat with Galaxy vice president Pete Vagenas about LA's new high school and integration between the academy, USL team and MLS squad. The mailbag has the requisite Cali flavor, plus some hints for growing a fanbase outside the United States.
