The KC Current have their first trophy. But how excited are we about The Women's Cup and where does it rank among the made up, cash grab tournaments around soccer?
Sporting KC signed Joaquin Fernandez in the Summer Window. While a big splash wasn't expected, it isn't easy watching teams like Real Salt Lake be so active.
Could it be? Did the USMNT really land one of the most highly respected coaches in the world? We react to the Mauricio Pochettino reports and what it means for the 2026 World Cup.
We're joined by Carrie Robinson, who you might already know from being hilarious on Twitter.

We have missed having David Greenwald on the pod as he worked tirelessly on a side project but were overjoyed to have him back on this episode: interesting insight and a fun friend to argue, err... debate with.
The downside was we were missing the normal host Cody Bradley. Technical difficulties was his excuse but maybe he was just watching the Olympics.
We made the best of it and talked lots of soccer and some Olympics in general.
In the first segment, we discuss Sporting KC getting bounced out in the first knockout match of the Leagues Cup. In the second segment we discuss the new payer being signed by Sporting KC. Other topics sprinkled throughout the episode include how SKC manages their roster (quality, selling), the US Women's National Team success in France, the Current, and what is or is not a sport vs a competition.
