We have an interview with the head coach of our Minnesota United, Cameron Knowles. We'll dive deep into all the big moments from the Home Opening win against FC Cincinnati. And we'll brainstorm some ideas for a new back of jersey sponsor that sits just above the butt.    BlueSky: @loonybinpodcast.bsky.social Dan Elias (@oyvey2you.bsky.social) Matt Leaf (@mnloonlet.bsky.social) Email: theloonybinpod@gmail.com Email Dan: dan@theloonybinpod.com Email Matt: matt@theloonybinpod.com  Website: theloonybinpod.com Insta: instagram.com/theloonybinpod YouTube: youtube.com/@loonybinpodcast  

Time to break out the winter scarves for this weekend's first big away trip to the chilly confines of Saint Paul. FC Cincinnati makes another heralded trek to Minnesota United, hoping to stitch multiple solid performances together. The Orange & Blue have left their history in the past, winning their last two visits to Allianz Field and leaving all memories of their worst loss ever in the snowdrifts. As much as Cincinnati has kept their roster primarily constant in the offseason, the Loons have endured a very turbulent winter with a roster that looks quite different. The promise of superstar James Rodrigues has been tempered with the uncertainty of new head coach Cam Knowles, but the first match at least brought a point back to their home opener. We talk with Dan from The Loony Bin Podcast to analyze the roster shifts and expectations. Can Minnesota alter the trend of Cincinnati taking the wins? Will we hear "Wonderwall" or "Mr. Brightside" after 90 minutes? Tune in and trade threads with us! #MLS #FCCincinnati #soccer Become a Patron!

For the Glory KC is back with the 167th episode of the show!Sporting Kansas City finally did it! They made a signing that everyone expects to be a starter. Lasse Berg Johnsen joins from Malmo in Sweden and should immediately be penciled into the defensive midfielder role when his P-1 visa arrives. We break down the signing and how he'll fit next to Manu Garcia.The majority of this week's episode is focused on the two big preseason wins for Sporting KC. They finished 3-3-0 in preseason, a three game and five goal improvement over the 2025 preseason. Sure, against NYCFC it was a win over backups, but that Austin FC game was a starting lineup that got beaten on before some late red cards let the game get out of hand. Rapha Wicky seemed none too happy with Austin's violent fouls that led to cards either.The results of the games made it look like Wicky's system just needed a little more time to take hold (or maybe they just needed to not be playing Minnesota United). Regardless, there were plenty of positives to take away and I even took a shot at predicting who should start this weekend against the Quakes.In this episode I also spent time on the multiple rumors for Sporting KC this past week, SKC adding to their front office, Forbes' MLS valuations, Nemanja Radoja's new landing spot, SKC II signings and some former KC player updates.The KC Current made big headlines this week too. Some for good reasons and others that weren't quite so good. The team traded Claire Hutton, one of the best young players in the world. Then they immediately added another young star in Croix Bethune. That, plus the 1-1 draw against San Diego in preseason.In the Digital Crawl, we hit on a few more topics, including:KS Astras keep winningCatarina Macario to the San Diego Wave?Here is a rundown of topics and start times:Sporting KC - 0:00KC Current - 33:44Digital Crawl - 41:57As a special gift to For the Glory KC listeners and KC Soccer Journal readers, Backheeled dot com is giving away 30 days of their amazing, independent American soccer coverage for free.

Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola dive into Mauricio Pochettino and Jesús Pérez's recent interview on the High Performance Podcast, where the coaching duo talked about targeting a World Cup win, the USMNT lacking basics, and the challenges of managing a player pool spread out across multiple leagues. Alex Zendejas looks like a March lock after a match-winning return for Club América, but does Gio Reyna belong in the same conversation with so few minutes under his belt at Gladbach? The guys debate midfield fits, form vs. talent, and how Poch should handle the situation. Plus: James Rodríguez is officially a Minnesota United player. Is the risk worth it for the Loons? And what does Concacaf's new World Cup qualifying format mean for the USMNT?

For the Glory KC is back with the 166th episode of the show!Sporting Kansas City actually made signings this week, the problem is they are signings we essentially knew about already. Jayden Reid and Wyatt Meyer formally signed, with Ethan Bartlow remaining on trial for the second leg of preseason. Sporting KC II also made a notable signing, bringing in 15-year-old Zamir Loyo Reynaga, who moves to the first team next season.Those moves still leave Sporting KC precariously thin at nearly every position on the roster and the media had a chance to ask Raphael Wicky about that. He mostly said all the things he's supposed to say, so we try to dive into those topics.That naturally led us to the 3-0 beating Sporting KC took at the hands of Minnesota United in their fourth preseason game of 2026. We look at the formation, the way the teams played and how tough the season looks to be, at least at the beginning.Sheena and I also dive into number changes, Sporting KC's theme nights and the new SKC II coaching staff.The KC Current made some more news this week. First, they re-signed Bailey Feist in a move that certainly bolsters their midfield depth. They also announced Teal Rising Week, with a new Teal Rising Cup schedule, youth tournaments and a pair of games between USWNT U-20s and the Brazil's U-20s. The Long's also opened an academy in Brazil.In the Digital Crawl, we hit on a few more topics, including:KS Astras win!Argentina officially doing base camp at Sporting KC's facilities2028 Olympic Soccer hostsJames Rodriguez to Minnesota UnitedHere is a rundown of topics and start times:Sporting KC signings, preseason and Wicky press availability - 5:11KC Current round-up - 49:19Digital Crawl - 55:05As a special gift to For the Glory KC listeners and KC Soccer Journal readers, Backheeled dot com is giving away 30 days of their amazing, independent American soccer coverage for free.

Continúan las labores de rescate de seis mineros atrapados en una mina en Guachetá, Cundinamarca, mientras las autoridades confirman que el lugar no tenía permisos de operación. La Procuraduría investiga un contrato por 185 mil millones de pesos para la fabricación de pasaportes. En Medellín, más de 80 exmilitares reconocieron su responsabilidad en casos de falsos positivos.

Is James Rodríguez really headed to Minnesota United? In one of the strangest transfer rumors we've ever seen, the Cooligans unpack how a global superstar could end up in MLS, what it would mean for Minnesota, and whether James still has enough left to move the needle in the league — or if this is destined to be pure chaos.Next, we revisit the USMNT hype machine and ask some uncomfortable questions. Gio Reyna, Yunus Musah, Gianluca Busio, Jordan Morris — all players who once felt like sure things. So what happened? We break down why their trajectories have stalled, what went wrong at club level, and whether there's still time for a second act.Finally, we react to the wildest stories from around world soccer. From Vinícius Jr.'s girlfriend revealing uncomfortable details involving Real Madrid, to Gabriel Barbosa's tense encounter with fans, to Cristiano Ronaldo's “missing” posters popping up in Saudi Arabia — it's another reminder that no sport delivers chaos quite like football. Timestamps:(6:30) – James Rodriguez's shock transfer to Minnesota United(21:30) - USMNT rising stars that have now faded(49:30) – Vini Jr's girlfriend's weird ointment story(53:30) – Reacting to other news around the soccer world Subscribe to The Cooligans on your favorite podcast app:

Another good-to-great guest joins the show as Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Charlie Davies welcome in USMNT and Derby County to break down his red-hot form in the Championship, the Rams' playoff push, and his decision to move to England (02:48). Patrick reflects on being a "late bloomer", why he doesn't compare himself to other American strikers, and what the Gold Cup taught him about himself at the international level. The guys then react to reports linking James Rodríguez with Minnesota United (32:56). Does the Colombian superstar have any idea what Midwest winters are like, and would this be a true needle-mover for the Loons and MLS? San Diego FC make an immediate statement in 2026 with a 4-1 win over Pumas in the Concacaf Champions Cup (41:16). If the writing wasn't already on the wall for Hirving Lozano, it might be now...
