Full 90 Soccer Time

With a bandana full of their stuff attached to a stick over their shoulder, the Sounders head to Frisco to tell #GiraffeFacts by the campfire and talk about their favorite yokozuna. Fan Outrage returns (and it's amazing), Leerdam puts Besler on spin cycle, and Dallas are hungry for Seattle blood.

Congrats for a legendary career, Chad Marshall. Thanks for sacrificing your body for Seattle week in and week out. Thanks for being our soccer dad, and enjoy all the time you get to be a real dad to your kids, and your grown son traveling on his gap year, Brad Evans.

Hope the Sounders didn’t forget their travel toothbrushes for their road trip for LITERALLY THE ENTIRE NEXT MONTH. We preview the “Brad Evans Didn’t Die for This Cup” against Sporking KC and whether or not Roman can actually pull off the Panamanian Tuxedo. Also, can someone please check on Chad Marshall’s very muscular knee?

Big pod question: if Brad Bradsmith/Bradsith was a jedi, what color lightsaber would that dude swing? He's been an incredible defender but the dude also rockets in offensive crosses like crazy. Also, MLS - unless your goal is to get everyone diamond status - you need to chill on the cross country schedule! For the second time this season, Sounders FC has three matches in a week including a long trip to Philadelphia over the weekend. Orlando in town on a Wednesday means that team came from Atlanta to Seattle before jumping back on a plane for Orlando! Quick pod as it's just Gregr while Branden moves and doesn't have a studio!

Wait a second...Houston is good? Sounders pick up two new players (#SpaceBuns). Like Bob Ross, Sounders love drawing and are #Warm going into this weekend’s match against Dynamo. Also, someone on the team is pregnant? It’s #DefinitelyNotABaby.

Partying with MLS DisCo, Cristian Roldan gets the Ted Card, and the whole world goes bonkers. Sounders travel north of the wall this week to see an old Cuban guy who is probably mad at them. Maybe the Rave Green will save money on flights by only fielding 2 players on the bench?

His is the deep booming voice to whom you've yelled but likely never spoken. He's James Woollard, stadium announcer for Seattle Sounders FC at CenturyLink Field, and he bellows first names to which you celebrate by shouting the corresponding last name each and every time a home goal is scored! There's more to it than that though, his day at the stadium is much longer than ours as fans. It's hard to imagine the seemingly simple but painstakingly precise nature of his job as forty-thousand fans - that's eighty thousand ears (barring any Van Gogh's) - are kept in the loop by the pipes of James!

Yo - i goofed up and uploaded raw audio instead of the finished product. My bad - please disregard the other file. This week its 100% on me! -Gregr. It was a massive week for Seattle Sounders FC… U-17 who won the Generation Adidas Cup. The opposite can be said for first team Sounders FC who went to LA for a tan and came home with a BURN. Branden gives us a taste of merry ol’ England with his adventure to see Premier League action between two teams with nothing on the line. Plus, we’re raising someone from the dead and bringing someone else home from a deserted island!

Freelance sports writing machine, Ari Liljenwall (@arililjenwall) gives us a glimpse of life as an independent journalist covering teams like Seattle Sounders FC. He busy sprinkling in the hot takes like it's salt on french fries while our Branden is off viewing art wrong in Europe. We cover important pod topics including the race for the Golden Boot, the real reason Sammy the Sounder is back (looking at you, Bradley), and his favorite ever Seattle Sounder. - A quick note: this episode was set to drop before the Toronto FC match but the feed was disabled by an oversight above our paygrade! Still felt this convo was fun and worth sharing.
