Podcast appearances and mentions of Brian Schmetzer

The Seattle Sounders are coming off arguably the worst performance in club history, and for an occasion this unprecedented, we're devoting the entire show to processing the fallout. After entering the World Cup break at 7-3-3, Seattle returned to a 5-1 annihilation by the Portland Timbers in front of more than 35,000 fans at Lumen Field. On this episode we'll break down every angle of the historic collapse. Was it an inexplicable outlier or an x-ray of deeper problems? How much responsibility belongs to Brian Schmetzer and Craig Waibel, and what does the result say about Seattle's roster construction, ownership spending and veteran leadership? We'll also examine Jordan Morris' complicated DP situation, the decision to send Snyder Brunell and Paul Rothrock to face the media, and where the Sounders go from here.Follow Lobbing Scorchers: YouTube Instagram Bluesky TikTok Facebook Ari Liljenwall Noah Riffe Niko MorenoSPONSORSQED Coffee - a Seattle based roaster, coffee shop and coffee subscription service.
