Jason Levien, who once led the NBA's Memphis Grizzlies, is all in on soccer these days. After buying a stake in MLS club DC United, he was able to deliver a brand new soccer-specific facility in the nation's capital, resisting the easier move to the suburbs. He sits down with Jason Kelly and Mike Lynch to talk about how he got the stadium got built, the effect Covid-19 has had across his business and how a summer tournament in Orlando may be the moment soccer in America has been waiting for.

Even though there wasn't a D.C. United game this weekend, there is still a Filibuster for you to enjoy on Tuesday. Jason, Adam, and Ben talk about the change in ownership of D.C. United, with Jason Levien and Erick Thohir buying out long-time investor Will Chang. We then shift gears to talk about the national team, talking specifically about Steve Birnbaum and Bill Hamid and tearing our hair out at the comments Jurgen Klinsmann made about Hamid's standing. We then shift to the NYCFC game this weekend, with D.C. United able to clinch a playoff spot with a win and controlling their own destiny for fourth place (and a home playoff game). We talk about what United need to do, how they should attack the Pigeons, and how important that fourth playoff spot is. We end by talking about what D.C. United has to do to stop New York, and who New York will target when they attack United. Give it a listen!
Even on the week of Christmas, Filibuster is here for you, your travels, and when you need to escape family. Adam, Jason, and Ben kick off this episode by talking about Steve Goff's interview with D.C. United managing partner Jason Levien. We talk about the size of the stadium, the surprisingly pernicious roof debate, the contract status of Perry Kitchen, and Marco Etcheverry in the D.C. Sports Hall of Fame. We then talk about MLS Live coming back next year, D.C. United's move to WJLA7, and finish up with a slew of awards: The Andy Award, the Donnety Award, and a lightning round of Cake or Death. Give it a listen!
We waited for Tuesday to record so we could watch the USMNT play Trinidad and Tobago, and was that ever a mistake. Jason, Adam, and Ben are back to talk about the USMNT and D.C. United, and we start by asking if there is any chance Jurgen Klinsmann is fired for what happened in the past two games (of course not). We break down what happened in the game against Trinidad and Tobago, ask whether the fire is still there for the players under Jurgen, and make wild comparisons to Steve Sampson. We then go into our D.C. United news roundup, and talk about the re-signings of Nick DeLeon and Alvaro Saborio, the sadness of Chris Rolfe cutting his hair, the PEPCO land swaps giving the District full control over the stadium site, and Jason Levien and Erick Thohir possibly investing in an NBA team. Finally, we go in depth on both playoff series that start this weekend without D.C. United, paying special attention to the New York Red Bulls versus the Columbus Crew. But, we also have some words about FC Dallas and the Portland Timbers, mostly asking Dallas to make up for the horribleness that was MLS Cup 2010. Give it a listen!
