Jake & Trey are back in the hot seat after a week away, and the Boys in Blue are back in the pocket after a long hard try month. Will it be enough to keep them competitive in postseason? Perhaps! Will Nick Cushing join the ranks of Dome Torrent and Ronny Deila as a much maligned but ultimately beloved NYCFC gaffer? Perhaps that too! Will Alex Callens continue to wrecking ball his way through MLS sides? That one's a guarantee. We talk top-notch Talles moments, the return of Big Bird, the saving grace Cushing's found in a defensive approach, and so much more.THEN: Ugliness abounds in the world of national soccer. We run down the Justice Department's bombshell report on top-down culture in NWSL and its most recent ramifications. AND: are the boys in the Stars and Stripes prepared for Qatar? ... It doesn't look like it! Just do a set of ten pushups or something -- you've got Blue Balls.
