Puro SAFC

We’re back in the Shadpad…. We talk about SAFC’s home 0-0 tie (again) to first place Tampa Bay.

But first: storm prep and baseball playoffs.

Then, Saturday’s game: a valuable point or a Snoozefest? Both!

Then, the stretch run: four more regular season games remain (two road games and two home games). How many points does SAFC need to make the playoffs? Or host a game? Listen to find out!

We also look around the league and then dive into the new and youthful USA team.

Enjoy!

First, Clayton and Shaddock talk about the Astros and Rangers playoff chase. Then we catch you up with SAFC’s recent road trip: away to Colorado Springs and Sacramento. The team has only one goal in their last four games and also no wins. What gives? We talk solutions and preview Saturday’s home game against best in USL Tampa Bay. Finally, we go around the league and talk the new players in the USA men’s team. Enjoy!

We’re back in the Shadpad on a Monday to talk aboutSAFC. But first: reading glasses???

Then: we talk the last two SAFC games: an awful 0-1 loss at home to lowly Oakland Roots, and a fantastic 2-1 win away at New Mexico.

What’s next? At home Saturday against feisty Tulsa, then again for the PRINX Cup Semi-Final against Louisville a few days later.

Finally, we also look around the league and talk Free Kicks about the Borro and ex-SAFC Sam Adineran.

Check out this podcast where Landon Donovan and Tim Howard talk pro-rel with the USL League President.

Clayton and Shaddock are BACK to talk SAFC’s big week.

First: summer is over… what was your favorite summer reading book?

After the exciting game in Louisville, SAFC was back at home, where they defeated Miami 2-1 in the PRINX Cup quarterfinal. Louisville awaits in the Semi Final at home on September 8th.

Then, the squad welcomed Copa Tejas rival El Paso and Dani Rojas on Saturday night. A sellout crowd for Spurs night, Family Night, and a big disappointment: a 0-3 stinker.

Finally: we preview this week’s home game against struggling Oakland and drop a couple free kicks. Enjoy!

Clayton and Shaddock are back to talk SAFC!

Ahead of a Prinx Cup home game Wednesday night against Miami, the squad fought to a 1-1 tie on the road at Louisville. A great goal, a great stadium, a great tie. It was a fun watch, and everything USL can be!

We also preview Saturday nights home game against Dani Rojas’s El Paso, where it’ll be Family Night for the pod guys.

Finally, free kicks about the USA U-20s and Little League baseball. Enjoy!

Clayton and Shaddock are back to talk about Friday night’s game under the lights.

First: the World Cup is over and it’s baseball season.

Next, we review Friday’s awesome 3-1 win over Indy XI. We returned to the stadium for a night out with our World Cup Pick Four Winner (and loser) and it was great!

Finally, we preview Saturday’s game away against perennial USL contender Louisville City.

Finally, free kids about the ‘Boro, Ted Lasso, and Mayor Jones. Enjoy!

Summer Vacation is just about over and Clayton and Shaddock are back! An Odyssey of sorts, which is also our first topic (it’s a great movie!).

Then we dive into SAFC’s last two games: abad 1-2 loss at home to lowly Vegas, before totally redeeming themselves 1-0 on the road at Coney Island.

Welcome back Cristian Parano, and way to go Joey B!

Finally we both are excited to be back in the stadium for Friday night’s game vs Indy WI. We’ll be celebrating our Puro Pick Four World Cup winner! As always, free kicks about future US players and the ‘Boro. Enjoy!

Clayton and Shaddock are back to share their thoughts on the World Cup. We’ve been out and about for the past month experiencing the Cup at bars, pools, cruise ships, stadiums, and even at work. How about you?

Then, we check in with where SAFC sits at the Midseason. Who has stood out, and why? What to look for in the second half of the year?

Listen to find out. Enjoy!

Shaddock and Clayton are back to preview the World Cup!
