Peachtree Post

We're back a day earlier than usual for the hour long Peachtree Post!  

We take a longer look at the kits from the reveal night as well as what we liked and didn't like.

The team's staff is filled out and we take a look at who is who on the staff and the experience they bring the table.

There are player rumors again and Jason has shouldered the burden of figuring out who on the Atlanta United roster best fits the classic Four Horsemen style. (Carlos Tevez is a must for this)

Finally we get into the USMNT setting the sport back a few decades in Costa Rica and what it means going forward.

Eric Quintana of the Mouths of the South joins Jason at the Tabernacle. Reaction to the kit unveiling, the crowd, and more.

Atlanta United announced the remainder of its coaching staff today, get the breakdown on who will be working with Tata Martino. 

"Atlanta United today announced the hiring of seven additional technical staff members to join head coach Gerardo Martino ahead of their inaugural 2017 MLS season. Joining Martino will be assistant coaches Jorge Theiler and Dario Sala, goalkeeper coach Aron Hyde, fitness coaches Rodolfo Paladini and Manuel Alfano, video analyst Damian Silvero and head of sports science Ryan Alexander."

Learn about the staff and what they'll be bringing to Atlanta as the club continues to come together.

We're back to full strength and on our regular time.

We take a look at the USA Mexico game and what to expect from both teams. Does *anybody* have a clue how these coaches will line things up?

The Atlanta United kit release is next Tuesday so we talked about what we hope for in the kits and the importance of a good kit in the team's identity.

Finally we both spared a few words concerning the unique atmosphere around USA/Mexico games (especially this one) and what it means to us.

Welcome to today's Peach Pit. 

Today's topics include the LA Galaxy and what they are facing this offseason. After two straight disappointments, do they change their approach moving forward. LAFC is just around the corner now, will they impact what the Galaxy do as a club? 

Also, I tackle a question from last night's #ATLSoccer chat about where Atlanta United will rank in the MLS spending charts. 

More Peach Pit episodes to come in the future, thanks for listening!

The Post is back after a bye week and we're live with quick thoughts on the day that was in the playoffs and what to look forward to next.

Atlanta United has had its fair share of news come out and we'll take a look at both the news and the public reaction.

With big hex games on the horizon the USMNT has been announced and we'll dive into it.

This is Jason and I'm flying solo on this episode, I think the Seattle game was after Jarrett's bed time. Late starts are rough for us East Coasters...

I run through the MLS Knockout Round results and discuss the surprises, who played well, and start to look at the next round of the playoffs. Are Sporting Kansas City fans still mad now? Are Seattle fans still celebrating Nelson Valdez's late goal. Did DC ever show up for their playoff game? 

I also go through the latest Atlanta United news. Get to know the MLS Offseason Calendar, it will help you know when Atlanta can add players through the various drafts and through Free Agency. I also talk about the Carolina Challenge Cup and the launch of the Atlanta United Foundation. 

Thanks for listening to the Peachtree Post!

Hey, this is Jason flying solo today with something new for y'all...

This is the first edition of the Peach Pit, a new short form podcast talking about the news of the day. It will be "mostly daily" in the afternoons going forward. 

Today, I talked about the NASL/USL drama and how it will change the landscape of the lower divisions of U.S. Soccer. What's next? We'll have to wait and see what happens...

I also interviewed Rob Usry about our Expansion Draft Wish List piece on DSS and touched on today's news about Jake Gleeson and Liam Ridgewell. Will it affect their Expansion Draft status? Who from the Timbers could be a target for Atlanta United in December? 

Thanks for checking this project out!

It's the Peachtree Post's sweet 16! Thanks to everyone who has been listening to us for these 16 episodes!

The academy keeps wrecking shop and we dive into who to watch now and who to watch later.

Sunday is Decision Day in MLS. The playoffs are coming in six days and we'll know where it all stands this weekend. Will the defending champs get into the playoffs?

Hey, we're back and the big coin flip is this weekend. It's the MLS Expansion Priority Draft, a draft for other drafts. It's Atlanta vs. Minnesota for something big in football and this has never happened before, right? Gary Anderson and Morten Andersen should be involved somehow...

We dive into what's at stake and pick our prefered confusing MLS method of acquiring players.

More rumors of players coming from Argentina to Atlanta. Meaningful rumors or not?

The MLS playoff picture: Who is in? Who is out? How do you kill the Sounders? (spoiler alert, you don't)

Finally, we look at the USMNT and whatever that was last week. Is it foreshadowing Mexico?
