Back from a successful trip to DC, we recap our views in The District from MLS All-Star week where Arsenal put a healthy whooping on the MLS All-Stars, and wrapping an incredible week for the league, we got Leo Messi's grand debut and capped it with last minute free kick winner, which our Dreaming co-host Cali U saw from a South Florida bar thanks to selling his ticket for a HEALTHY sum. Follow that we talk about the load of Europe's Elite coming stateside for their summer tours and how that's affecting the start of the newly expanded Leagues Cup, and touching on summer transfer news, the buzz of the Saudi Pro League making their biggest chase yet in making a BILLION DOLLAR bid for PSG striker Kylian Mbappe.

And our main course is the start of the FIFA Women's World Cup and who we have liked so far coming up on the end of the first matchday for all teams in 2UP/2Down we go into a bad day for DC racists, Shaka Hislop, AND MORE!!

We come back after yet another holiday where we begin to get ready for the Women's World Cup, and dig into the US Men's Gold Cup journey (prior to their Semifinal exit) and debate on who's made a decent case for further inclusion in the men's roster. Heading into the WWC we go into the announcement of the new US Captains for the tournament where despite a grassroots campaign on social media, Crystal Dunn was passed over for Lindsay Horan and Alex Morgan.

Across the way, we still keep is US-focused during the men's summer transfer window where our hero US Agent (Christian Pulisic) is heading from Chelsea to AC Milan where he may see himself played in a new role, Yunus Musah looks close to heading home to London, and in 2UP/2Down we get ready for MLS All-Star Weekend, career changes on the team, and an ill-timed trade for the Home Team in Atlanta!

In the 180 Int'l, Coach Tony returns following the end of the spring season and brings along the President of Morehouse Club Soccer, Tommy Mesamours to chop it up with Greggo and Prof. Jermaine. We give our first kick to Man City, having clinched their 3rd straight Premier League title following an Arsenal loss from one of Coach Tony's favorite keepers, Keylor Navas of Nottingham Forest, we look ahead to how solid Man City's chances are for a treble, coming off a dominating win over Real Madrid to reach the Champions League Final, and if winning the treble will put Pep Guardiola up with the greatest managers ever. Following that we turn to FTC's continued discussion of the racism incident with Vini Jr, this making the 8th incident towards Vini Jr through this season alone and why La Liga seems so reluctant to attack the root of the matter. We go into extra time to talk with Tommy and Tony about the recent All ATL Cup event, and the chase for a full time soccer experience at Morehouse despite constant hurdles put in the way.

Also in 2Up/2Down, we give our thoughts on the 2026 World Cup logo, the Miami Heat, Janelle Monae AND MORE!
