Frank is enjoying the chaos of the European football transfer window; will Manchester City, Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Liverpool continue to splash the cash in the final days of the window?  Eddie doesn't believe that FIFA's punishment for Argentina's behaviour during the World Cup is sufficient, especially as Argentina are looking for creative ways to offset their financial penalties. England cricket has once again been rocked by a drinking scandal, and Frank and Eddie look into some of the unofficial requirements for the NFL Hall of Fame.

We are over 1700 miles in to our approximately 2500 mile road trip. Today's show covers the crazy game in MIL, our two game visit to Springfield to see the WPBL in action, and two games in Kansas City. MIL gave us an historic shut out, a tornado warning, and a “throwing error” for the ages. On the way to Springfield we paid our respects to Rockford, the home of the Peaches, and future home of the IWBC. At the WPBL home base we saw Kelsie and Danae hit homers, Maybelle the mascot shaking her groove thing, and the very first manager ejection – Jemile Weeks of the Boston Hunters. Not sure what was slower, the umpires walk to the dugout to toss him, or his walk along the third base line out of the park. On to Kansas City for two games vs the Tigers where we learned the video board is stuck in 1992 (really? The kiss cam?), the scoreboard and fountains are glorious, the current ballpark is in the middle of nothing, and Pottymouth's boyfriends can really hit some homers. Even though we could not see the Players Weekend bats and cleats, we were in the same ballpark as Carter Jensen's cleats designed by kids staying at Children's Mercy in KC, a hospital for pediatric cancer care.The City Council just approved a public funding package for a new well-placed ballpark and we catch you up on the good, bad, and the ticked off voters. The reason for, and the highlight of our trip was a visit to the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, where Bob Kendrick, the very kind and immensely engaging president, gave us a tour for the ages. We cannot recommend the museum enough. Lastly, there's a quick note of JJ's cycle, and FIFA punishments of the Argentinian World Cup team.We say, “You look glorious because you are wearing sparkles,” “the highway, two hotels, and a gas station,” and “Floofy? Froofy? It was just bad.” Fight the man, go see some live baseball, send your game balls to Meredith, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Get on the wait list, launching this fall. (Say it "Hey Sammy," spelled H E Y S A I.) Coach Bill sits down with Fred Wilson, a Bay Area youth soccer legend who started as a volunteer rec coach at Mustang Soccer in 1989 and now oversees one of the largest and most respected clubs in the country. Along the way he helped launch the San Jose Earthquakes Academy and spent eight years there. The conversation opens with the hard question. Mustang measures heart rate, workload, game analytics, and eventually psychological profiles. So at what point does helping a kid improve turn into watching a kid too closely? Fred's answer is the thread that runs through the whole hour: the data is only ever a starting point, because you cannot measure head and heart, and none of it works without the relationship. From there it goes into the tech stack, the culture work Mustang did with Winning Leader, how a volunteer board evolved into a collaborative governance structure, why kids should play multiple sports, and a rapid fire round that every club director should sit with. Fred's central caution about the data era. All the biodata, game analytics, and psychological profiling in the world still leave out the intangibles a kid brings to the field. The measurement only earns trust when there is a real relationship behind it with the player and with the family, and when everyone understands the purpose clearly. The purpose is an objective basis from which a player can improve. Nothing more, nothing less. When Fred started down this road, a friend told him he did not want to, because he would drown in data and need a data scientist to explain it. That turned out to be exactly true. Mustang had spreadsheets full of statistics and players looking at them asking what any of it meant, with no comparative and no predictive value at the youth level. Two people fixed it. Dana Taylor, a former Quakes colleague, came in as the data scientist who made it usable for coaches. And a parent in the club who does analytics across industries looked at roughly 800 to 900 games of data and found patterns. That analysis surfaced 19 algorithms hiding in the data that identified KPIs tied to winning. The one Fred quotes: when Mustang broke the defensive third of the opponent more often than the opponent broke theirs, they won 94 percent of the time. Those were being pulled manually at first.

The main question this episode answers is: What is the LESS (Landing Error Scoring System) test, and how can fitness professionals use its research-based assessment to reduce ACL injury risk in clients, especially when considering anticipated versus unanticipated movement? The LESS test is a movement assessment that helps identify lower extremity dysfunction and ACL injury risk by evaluating how clients land from a jump, whether they know what to expect (anticipated) or are reacting to new stimuli (unanticipated). NASM experts Wendy Batts and Marty Miller break down recent, peer-reviewed NASM research from the open-access Journal of Fitness, Wellness, and Human Performance to demonstrate how to accurately use the LESS test with athletes and everyday clients. This “Master Instructor Roundtable” guides listeners through the test's setup, scoring system, practical applications, and the science supporting both anticipated and unanticipated testing situations. Listeners will learn how to integrate this assessment safely, score it correctly using video, and interpret results to inform program design that decreases ACL and other lower limb injury risks. By the end of the episode, fitness professionals will be equipped to decide when and how to use the LESS test and adapt their programs for better, safer movement performance. Chapters: 00:00:05 What is the LESS test and why is it important for injury risk?00:01:43 How does the LESS assess lower extremity function for athletes and non-athletes? 00:03:12 Why is power training and assessment needed for all clients?00:05:18 How is the LESS test set up and what exactly does it measure?00:08:13 What are the preconditions for using the LESS safely and effectively? 00:09:05 Who developed and validated the LESS and what is its research foundation? 00:14:55 What is the difference between anticipated and unanticipated LESS testing? 00:16:30 How does the LESS test scoring system work and what do scores mean? 00:22:31 Why does unanticipated movement increase ACL injury risk according to the research? 00:26:38 How can trainers use LESS results to design better injury-prevention programs? 00:33:59 What practical strategies can I use to apply LESS research in my client sessions? 00:34:16 What types of unanticipated reactive training can reduce real-life injury risk?

Five weeks on from the World Cup final, Tim Vickery and Henry Winter are back together. Welcome to Futebol & Football, a new FC Camisa show bringing together two different perspectives on the same game: Tim from South America, Henry from England, and both with a lifetime of stories from football around the world. In Episode 1, Henry still hasn't forgiven England for what happened at the World Cup, Tim admits he's struggling to reconnect with the Premier League, and the conversation quickly turns into something much bigger: has elite football lost some of its soul? They discuss Thomas Tuchel's England future, Harry Kane, the growing distance between clubs and supporters, Argentina's winning mentality, Enzo Fernández and racism in football, the escalating battle around Gianni Infantino and FIFA, the prospect of a 64-team World Cup and whether football's calendar can keep expanding. And finally, Lionel Messi. After the death of his father, Tim and Henry reflect on Messi the footballer, Messi the man, whether we are approaching the end, and how Argentina can possibly move on from the greatest player of their generation. This is Futebol & Football with Tim Vickery & Henry Winter.

The NWSL's Youth World Cup Dilemma: Why Informal Negotiation Makes Everyone Lose

The Women's Soccer Podcast

Should FIFA mandate NWSL player releases for the youth World Cup tournaments? Why is this current system of informal negotiation over player release so detrimental for all parties involved? Is it possible to create a system that doesn't hurt players, coaches, club and national teams?In this episode, LDG tries to answer those questions that he has been pondering since the US women's national team dropped their U-20 World Cup roster, with a lot of recognizable names, but with some of the biggest names in the age group and talking points being those who were left off the roster entirely.He breaks down why the growing tug-of-war between club obligations and international development is creating a massive structural gap across women's football. LDG gets at the Youth World Cup release rules for clubs, what power the clubs hold in discussion and how these discussions are the byproduct and cost of the packed football calendar.He walks through the contrasting realities first: on the U.S. side, the 21 USWNT U-20 World Cup roster spots lack the plethora of skilled, eligible NWSL talent, with Claire Hutton, Lily Yohannes, Melanie Barcenas, Jordyn Bugg and Kimmi Ascanio all left off the squad due to their clubs not releasing them.LDG examines why several U20 players were left out of the US roster, and why the issue is bigger than one tournament. The discussion connects youth development, NWSL club leverage, FIFA release rules, and the growing tension between club and country as the game keeps expanding, and he discusses how Emma Hayes, US Soccer, and clubs all have competing incentives, why youth tournaments are different from senior international windows, and why the player is the one who often loses out when calendars collide.He contrasts that directly with the England side, where North Carolina Courage teammates Erica Meg Parkinson and Lauryn Thompson secured a partial-release compromise to stay with the Courage and miss the Lionesses' prep camp but play in the actual tournament, showing how collaboration is possible.He argues that this same league producing two completely different outcomes within weeks of each other is proof of a system currently running on informal negotiation rather than enforceable rules.From there, LDG gets into the policy routes to fix this chaos, dissecting Emma Hayes's ask for the youth World Cups to be included in the overall FIFA calendar that includes the senior competitions and implement all-encompassing mandates on player release, unilateral NWSL CBA adjustments, and the realistic necessity of a FIFA-backed insurance load-management backstop. He also doesn't shy away from the flaws in each path, showing how a domestic-only rule leaves European-based Americans untouched and fails to address the strongest club objections.He ends by proposing what he believes is the best solution to this dilemma.Thank you all for listening!

Interview Date: August 9th, 2026 Episode Summary:In this episode of The Business of Dance Podcast, Menina Fortunato sits down with Canadian choreographer Alex Francoeur to trace the journey that took him from a nine-year-old boy reluctantly entering his first hip-hop class in Quebec to building a full-time career across performance, choreography, television, live production, and entrepreneurship.

During the Q&A, Alex shares valuable advice about auditions, skeleton crews, networking, personal branding, leveraging opportunities, and treating yourself like a business.

True patriots will see through the effort by the Democrat Party to distance itself from the Democrat Socialists who have tried to stake their claim in America.America certainly has its share of ignorance and bad behavior, both at home and throughout the world. But the continued push toward “wokeness” ultimately reveals just how unique the opportunities and freedoms in America truly are.Just ask the hundreds of thousands of FIFA visitors who came to America for the World Cup. Many experienced a side of America they had never seen before and said, “In Europe, we never saw this side of America.”I want to begin my comments in this episode exactly where we left off in the previous one:“Liberty and Freedom were two concepts believed in by the founders of this nation.

A six week jury trial is about to get underway in California, which could pose the biggest threat yet to Meta's operations. A coalition of US states have accused the parent company of Facebook and Instagram of putting profits ahead of children's safety, by deliberately designing platforms to be addictive to young users. A Meta spokesperson said the claims were "unsubstantiated", and the company stood by its record of creating strong protection for teenagers. The states are seeking upwards of $1 trillion from Meta. Also: President Trump's envoy and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, has failed to overturn Israel's objections to a US backed Gaza peace plan after two days of talks in the Middle East. The US President has also threatened to bomb Oman - a US ally - if it "gets in the way" of his administration's own talks with Iran. Fifa has sacked its chief operating officer Kevin Lamour, weeks after he criticised the organisation's president, Gianni Infantino. As Russia and Ukraine trade more deadly strikes, the deputy head of Ukraine's military intelligence service, GUR, tells the BBC he expects the coming winter months to be harder for civilians than last year.

Over 70,000 migrants try crossing into Spain, the US is running out of precision missiles, and Jared Kushner's brother almost bought FIFA.Tommy and Ben break down the mass crossing of migrants from Morocco into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta and why right-wing politicians are frothing at the mouth over it. While Trump's ultimatums and claims of a deal on Iran make us all feel like it's Groundhog Day, reports that the US has burned through virtually all of its precision strike missiles and that Iranian hackers have infiltrated water systems in at least seven states are genuinely alarming. Trump announces a "historic" Gaza disarmament deal, but Hamas says he's lying, the guys explain why the Japanese yen is suddenly America's problem, and FIFA president Gianni Infantino's corrupt plan to sell off the most lucrative parts of the World Cup might cost him his job. Finally, the State Department displays an inaccurate map of Africa at an international AIDS conference, and a Spider-Man screening in Cartagena is evacuated due to a gassy incident of epic proportions. At the end of the show, Tommy speaks with Casey Michel, author of United States of Oligarchy: How America's Wealthiest Ally with Dictators, Weaken the U.S., and Destroy Democracy, about our home-grown oligarchs, why they pose a threat to national security, and what to do about it.Hate listening to ads?
