MLS 2017 Kit Review

Atlanta based Bayern Munich Supporter Group Mia San Atlanta hosted Der Klassiker at Der Biergarten, with fans coming dressed in Bayern kits and lederhosen to support Die Roten. I caught up with Heather and Jon Cooke about Mia San Atlanta, their trip to Charlotte to see Bayern, their support of ATL Champions League and we even talked kits. This is a great group of fans and I hope you enjoy our conversation.

Walking Through the Storm

Went into the SoccerNomad podcast and revisited a conversation I had with JR Francis about his absurd "Sports Shirt" collection and discuss jersey design. We had a great discussion and would love to hear what you think about favorite/worst shirt and what makes a good jersey. And if you have Waldo USMNT in XL that you are willing to part with, please get a hold of us.
