In this episode, the boys are a bit stuffed after Thanksgiving, but they are still plenty thankful for a terrific season. But now it's time to look ahead to what Nashville SC will need to do this offseason so that they can compete for a championship in 2026. First and foremost, what's the answer at goalkeeper? Who's going to back up Dan Lovitz? Does our midfield need to be touched? And who's going to fill the gaping hole left by Teal Bunbury? But seriously, the boys share their letters to Santa and their top Christmas wishes for NSC going into the holiday season. And if that's not enough, the boys have visions of hot chicken takes dancing in their heads as they talk about what to expect in 2026 and explain why Apple TV is no good for the growth and popularity of Major League Soccer. Finally, the boys break out their crystal balls one last time to make predictions for the team's offseason, and they conclude a very fine season with best wishes to all and to all a good night. And they drink beer.
Nashville SC made center back Max Woledzi its first signing of the MLS offseason, bringing in the Norwegian to fill Walker Zimmerman's old roster spot. Wes and Tim explore his credentials and ask a key question for each position. Could NSC unload a center back to take advantage of its surplus at that spot? Is Brian Schwake ready to be the guy in goal? What does the club need more: a skull-cracking defensive midfielder or an attack-oriented center mid?
