I would use some catchy “we’re back!” title but I feel like I’ve used that a lot over the last few years. Honestly more than anything I simply want to thank all of those that have reached out and encouraged us to come back. Getting back in the chair and chatting about this league is a lot of fun and is a wonderful distraction everything going on both in the world and even in our little soccer community.

We took some time out to talk about our time away from the podcast and how it’s been coming back. What this season looks like compared to other years and why we may have even missed some opportunities in looking at performance in isolation due to the regional play.

We also took time to bemoan, complain and whine about why Matt Turner didn’t win the Goal Keeper of the Year but also took time to acknowledge that picking awards is actually pretty hard. Then we complain more.

We even had a few takes on these early rounds and why the playoffs are probably more important this year than it has been the last few seasons.

There are plans to come back and do more of these in the coming weeks to include some interviews and bringing on other guys from ASA that are doing more of the heavy lifting.
