I'm your host, Joe Lowry. And today I'm here with not just one, but two really, really smart soccer people, Jordan Angelie, my co-host. Jordan, how are you doing? I'm doing great, Joe. How are you doing? I'm doing well. And the second really smart soccer person we've got on is our guest, Bobby Worshaw. Bobby, how is life treating you? You guys, when I listen to your show, |
| 1:15.0 | you don't tell listeners that you do it from dark closets. Not just closets because of the |
| 1:19.7 | sound quality, but dark closets. We should. It really sets the tone and the mood, right? |
| 1:26.1 | And you should do is turn on a light in there. We're over Skype right now, and you guys don't even have lights on where you are. And I have no idea what's going on right now. On the west side of the U.S., Bobby, they don't actually make light fixtures. So that's what we're working with out here. We wanted to have you on the show, Bobby, because not only were you a huge help in getting MLS assist off the ground and apparently roasting us about our light and production quality, but we, and I know a lot of other people, miss getting to hear your thoughts and read your work on soccer-y things. So this is our kind of attempt to remedy that, at least in a small way. Yeah, thanks for having me. I have a lot of random soccer things going through my head these days. |
| 2:01.6 | So hopefully your fans are ready. |
| 2:03.9 | And we've been absolutely loving that. |
| 2:06.8 | And I think today we want to not only hit on those random soccery things that are |
| 2:11.2 | happening in your brain, but we want to talk background, some tactics, |
| 2:15.8 | and a little bit of MLS tactical landscape what's happening |
| 2:19.9 | throughout the league that you've noticed over the last few years. So if that all sounds good, |
| 2:24.5 | we're going to just get rolling. Perfect. Let's do it. Okay. Bobby, how does one from Mechanicsburg, |
| 2:32.3 | Pennsylvania, become a professional soccer player? Oh, that's a really good question. So we've actually had a couple. You know who the first one for Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, become a professional soccer player. |
| 2:34.8 | Oh, that's a really good question. |
| 2:35.9 | So we've actually had a couple. |
| 2:36.9 | You know who the first one for Mechanicsburg was? |
| 2:39.6 | And this is some deep cut MLS trivia. |
| 2:42.0 | He was a winger for DC United in the mid to late 2000s. |
