Welcome to the Total Soccer Show and an episode we're dedicating to the USWNT.

It's official.

We're in our Emma Hayes era.

So today we're looking at the two games she's presided over so far, the changes we've seen, the changes we'd like to see, and a look ahead towards the Summer Olympics. My name's Ryan Bailey, joining me today, your friend and mine, Taylor Rockwell. Hello, Taylor. Hello, we're going to win all the World Cups and all the Olympics. You heard it here first. Should we stop the recording? Because we've summarized the feeling of the whole thing now. Yeah, game over. Nice try. Other countries. We're winning everything. Joe Lowry, anything to add on that before we hang up and say goodbye? Just that I think what Taylor meant to say is Lily Johannes is winning all of the Olympics and World Cups. That is, I assume, what you were going for, Taylor, and I just had to tack it on for you. Oh, man. Joe, I showed my wife, her goal. And as like, we got the lead in of her turning and smiling in the rain before the, because it was like the injury delay. And my wife responded like, what is she like 16 or something? And I was like, yes. Yes, she is. The crazy thing is the goal was like the 12th most impressive thing that she did on the field last night against South Korea. Yeah, she real, real good real good. She real real good. Excellent, yeah. Well, later in the episode, we look forward to you listing those other 11 things, and then he needs to be very specific about those for Lillianis coming up in the episode later, and we'll look forward to that. No, Graham were with us on this feed. Today's having his wisdom teeth removed. We hope you, all the best, Graham. I remember when I had that done. It wasn't fun. Um, but yes, all the best. And patreon.com slash total soccer show is where you'll find our bonus content. Nothing from Graham at the moment, unless he posts from, I don't know, post surgery. Yes, please. Yes, please. I wanted to do a fast food review while post-surgery.

That will be the one for us. Yeah. I'm excited to hear how grumpy he is. Because I'm sure he's already realized that he can't eat proper food for a little bit of time. I do wonder if he's going to go. Oh, boy. To be fair. I wonder if he's going to go. True. Very true. but he can't eat solid food, which maybe he still wasn't in Scotland.

I'm not quite sure how their cuisine works. But I do expect a slightly thinner but slightly more agitated Graham Ruffin when we all resume. Well, do we think Graham waking up from the procedure, right? I don't know if he's going under or not. I did when I had my wisdom teeth out.

I assume he's going under.

Do you think when he comes back, he's going to be like extra grumpy or extra happy? I don't know if he's going to be writing like verbal love notes to Billy Gilmore or if he's just going to be depressed about Scotland heading into the Euros. I don't know which way Graham's going to go. and now I really wish that we've commanded him to record himself coming out of that.

Yeah. I picture him handing two notes. know which way Graham's going to go. And now I really wish that we've commanded him to record himself coming out of that sort of.

I picture him handing two notes to his wife.

And the first one is for Billy Gilmore.

And it's this very slowing poetic prose about how much Billy Gilmore means to him and Scotland means to him.

And the second note is just like, you're all right?

Exactly. Joe gets it. Jill gets it. I'm just picturing Graham waking up in the dentist chair and being like, Doc, why did you wake me up? I was having the most wonderful dream. Scotland got a point at the Euros. It was incredible. Oh, wonderful. Patreon.com slash total soccer show for our bonus content, by the way.
