The Pride are undefeated! The Pride are winless! Both things are true and it's a bit maddening.

Orlando scored first through a Chicago own goal off a good corner kick cross, but then conceded with some panicky defending in the second half en route to a 1-1 draw at home against the Red Stars. The Pride perhaps should have been up a player with plenty of time left had actual rules been applied. It seems like 10 minutes is enough to determine that a push in the back (see the feature photo for this article) is not a shoulder-to-shoulder challenge. Although Orlando would have only had a free kick from outside the area, one fewer defender may have helped the Pride find a second goal.

We break down a frustrating draw, check back on our score predictions, and make our selections for Player of the Match.

After our match rewind, we dove into our mailbagbox, which asked us questions about Seb Hines (which we didn't quite understand) and Barbra Banda. Remember, you can ask us anything by hitting us up on Twitter at either @TheManeLand or @SkoPurpSoccer and using the hashtag #AskSkoPurp. Or you can visit our show page, scroll down, and fill out the handy form. We'd also appreciate any ratings reviews you can leave wherever you get your podcasts, and if you do that on Apple Podcasts, we'll find them easily and read them on the show.

We then looked at which Pride players will be in action during this international break for their senior, U-23, and U-20 national teams. Of course there are a bevy of Brazilians representing their countries, but there are also Americans, Canadians, Zambians, and more.

Here’s how Episode 37 went down:
