Welcome to the Total Soccerfx

Welcome to the Total Soccer Show and part two of MLS 2025,

colon, how the West will be won, our preview of the Western Conference,

where we're taking in all the teams we didn't hit in part one.

It's RSL, the new boys in San Diego, San Jose, Seattle, Sporting Casey, St. Louis, and Vancouver. Without further ado, my name's Ryan Bailey. Joining me today, it's your friend is, my friend. It's the Taylor Rockwell. Hello, Taylor. Hello, the Ryan Bailey. It's lovely to be here for part two and part four simultaneously of our MOS previews. Yeah. It's been a week.

It's been a week, ten. It's been a week. And here we are on part four slash part two. Joining us, Graham Rutherland. Hello, Graham. Hello, Ryan Bailey. This is, this is harder to keep track of than like the Marvel Cinematic Universe. What is this? The TSS MLS universe, part two, part four. You're going to get expanded in there somewhere to really drive it home.

Plus whatever Ryan said, that's what we're calling it. It is. It is indeed. That's the whole title. Joe Larry's here. Hello, Joe. Hey, I too have trouble counting to four, just like everybody else on the show. It's just, I can't crack it.

Like, one, two, three. And I don't know. That is just like, I can't get my head around it. Two numbers at the same time. Yeah. That is, that's tricky. That's, that's hard. Look, Joe, we don't have your advanced math and analytics background, okay? Some of those here are going finger style. I will say somebody said the word expanded, and I think in the spirit of MLS, if someone is willing to submit a $500 million offer to TSS to be the fifth host of this show, I'm just going to go ahead and make a unilateral decision in the spirit of San Diego's arrival. We will be accepting that offer. So welcome aboard. We're very excited to have you. Yeah, glad to. Oh, I'm just, just, just, I'm just hearing, uh, it's 600 million now, Joe. Oh, my mistake. That's, that's my bad, 600 million. Thank you. There you go. It'll be 700 million tomorrow. Uh, we are going to get into our Western Conference, uh, preview part two.
