This week on 3rd Degree the Podcast, your hosts - Peter Welpton, Dan Crooke, and Buzz Carrick - tell you why the Seattle tie was a pretty good result. There's plenty of good to take away from that game just in the form of an improved Sebastian Lletget.  After a hit on Leagues Cup and what to expect, then it's time to talk window and moves. A Bryan Reynolds rumor?  Can FCD ad anyone? Could a trade be in the cards?  How about Alan Sonora? And never forget who owns this team and what that means. Plus North Texas SC fired its coach.

This week on 3rd Degree the Podcast, your hosts - Peter Welpton and Buzz Carrick (Dan Crooke is still MIA with technical problems) - have two FC Dallas games to mull over.  Both were very similar in style and quality, unsurprising given all the missing pieces, but one had a much better result than the other.  And the transfer window is upon us!  Eugene Ansah and Dante Sealy are in, but Justin Che is out. Could Jose Martinez be done?  What else does FCD need?  And why is Jesus Ferreira the Elephant in the room?  All that and more on 3rd Degree the Podcast.

This week on 3rd Degree the Podcast, your hosts - Peter Welpton, Dan Crooke, and Buzz Carrick - fight through some technical difficulties (more so for Dan but not just him) to bring you all things DTID.   Jesus Ferreira is an All-Star, let's compare him with Brandon Vazquez.  FCD can make some moves this summer. Dante Sealy is back but Justin Che isn't. FCD gets two key players back this week but injuries are still a massive weight on the team. And there's talk of Lionel Messi's hypothetical Leagues Cup in Dallas and the resulting ticket kerfuffle. All that and more on this week's episode.

This week on 3rd Degree the Podcast, Daft Punk is lending a hand to mix the episode. Ok, not really, it just sounds like that because Buzz is just in a hotel with terrible internet.  Still, your hosts - Peter Welpton, Dan Crooke, and the aforementioned Buzz Carrick - will carry on, fight through the difficulties, and talk FC Dallas.

Not that they really want to with the craptastic game at Portland Timbers.  Velasco was on the wrong side, nothing was created, dumb late-game shifts were made, and little positive happened beyond Maarten Paes saving FCD's bacon over and over.  Austin FC is up next and the list of missing players is epically disastrous.  Plus your trio discusses the possibility Jesus Ferreira has played his last game for FCD and asks the question "Could Jozy Altidore be his replacement?"

As the injuries mount, your 3rd Degree the Podcast hosts - Peter Welpton and Buzz Carrick (Dan Crooke had to work) - take on breaking down the tie in San Jose and loss in Kansas City. The list of injuries is crazy after Tsiki got hurt in the Bay.  FCD played some Luchi Ball at the Quakes, recalled Collin Smith from loan, and started two Homegrowns in their MLS debut at Sporting.  What a mess.  Jesus Ferreira continues to do too much but is bar far the team's best player despite not getting a USMNT call for Nations League. All that and more on 3rd Degree the Podcast.

This week on 3rd Degree the Podcast, your hosts - Peter Welpton, Dan Crooke, and Buzz Carrick - have the Texas Derby to dig into.  Peter talks love/hate with Hector Herrera, Jader Obrian excels, FCD denies midfield, plus there were some problems with subs and tactics.  After the look ahead to San Jose, it's big-picture question time.  Is the 4-2-3-1 the way forward? What is the most significant need for this next window? How many moves can the team afford?  Who could be sold to bring in money?  Are teams looking hard at Ferreira and if he goes where should he land?  All that and more on 3rd Degree the Podcast.
