We’ve gone from waiting months on end to have a game to watch and analyze to having two in one week!  Really three if you want to get technical, but 2 since the last time Cody and I got together to grace your ears with our enlightening and insightful analysis.  Unfortunately, the trend of losing those games has continued, leaving the vocal portion of the fanbase in the comments sections at large to be having totally rational reactions regarding the state of the team.

We spent a lot of time last week discussing silver linings from a 1-0 loss at home to Miami given the defensive performance, but now that we are getting a bit larger sample size of games certain performances are standing out, both on the positive and negative side of things.  Given that all 3 games have been losses, we would be remiss to ignore those negatives, even if given context we can perhaps see opportunities for them to improve.

A couple of weeks ago we did silly season overreactions, and this week we will be shifting into way too soon overreactions, discussing all of our takes from the first 270 minutes of Sporting KC’s season, and what things we definitely feel super confident about stamping our names on as completely correct and not the least bit half-baked takes.

Finally, we’ll discuss how even refs want Messi’s jersey, why George Brett thinks St Louis sucks, and a fairly unexpected exit for Alenis Vargas.
