Hey, Prime Members, you can listen to Men in Blazers ad-free on Amazon Music. Download the app today.

This is Producer Rachel with a warning that the pod you are about to hear contains some, as Arlo White would say,

fruity language, to the pod.

This is Rebecca Lo or Rebecca Noah if you listen to suboptimal radio and you are listening to Men in Blazers on the NBC Sports Network.

It's unbelievable!

Live from a sold-out theatre of the living arts in the decidedly non-crap part of Philadelphia, on the final day of the group stage of World Cup 2019.

Yes, Rodge, 38 teams came to France and only 36 of them made it through the group stage.

On the final day of the group stage of World Cup 2019, it's the Men in Blazers Budweiser Presents Football's Coming Home USA Against Sweden Show Roger.

Dave O'Hare isn't on that an ad-joy to be in one of my favourite cities.

This world of wonder that is home to Mr. Juliaert.

I also want to apologise to you Philadelphia because you know how they say bad things come in threes.

First, the feds take away all of Philadelphia's cocaine just before I arrive.

So this show is not going to be as good as it normally is.

Then today, your city is flooded to biblical proportions and now Men in Blazers are bloody air.

It's quite a traumatic 24 hours, I should say, right, for the city that loves you back.

Oh, can I just say, I love that tourism slogan.

Calling Philadelphia the city that loves you back is a bit like me introducing myself to people saying,

Hi, I'm Roger the man with lots of hair.

But I believe in you Philadelphia.

I think you are a magical kingdom built on soft pretzels, water ice, Mike Schmidt and your Philadelphia Union.

I fell in love here, Roger.

I fell in love, love of my life.
