S03E03 - For the Glory KC is back with the 68th episode of the show! Sporting Kansas City, against everything I personally expected, did the right thing and moved on from Gavin Wilkinson. But somehow, they still got that wrong. From the non-apology given by Mike Illig to Peter Vermes' refusal to even entertain answering questions about the whole situation in Saturday's press conference. We have thoughts! We do get to actually talking soccer this time out though, getting into all the Sporting KC preseason news. From the roster to the schedule and the results of the first game. Plus, we catch up on that Kortne Ford signing that got lost last week. And did Roger Espinoza officially retire?  The KC Current are back in the news for many reasons. We catch up on their two trades and weigh in on yet another player being caught out by their trade. We also catch up on their rumored signings (Desiree Scott and Bia) as well as the 2024 NWSL College Draft. In the Digital Crawl, we touch on the following topics: 2026 World Cup Final location Former KC players/coaches update (Busio, Nguyen) A couple smart MLS trades from rivals St. Louis City and Real Salt Lake KC Current staff announcements Sam Mewis retiring More NWSL Expansion for 2026 Here is a quick rundown of topics (and approximate start times): Wilkinson is gone - 5:09 New controversy from the Wilkinson hire - 13:38 Sporting KC Preseason - 36:12 Sheena wants signings! - 44:29 Espinoza officially retired? - 50:48 Kortne Ford to SKC II - 53:40 Gautrat and Kizer Trades - 57:12 A Rumored three Current signings - 1:08:32 The NWSL draft - 1:12:28 Digital Crawl - 1:16:46 Spotify took away our ads, so we turned on "Listener Support."

S2E48 - For the Glory KC is back with the 55th episode of the show! On this week's episode, Sporting Kansas City don't play a game, so instead we take the opportunity to look at their roster and play Fantasy Sporting Director. Imagine if Sporting KC's ownership put us in charge of roster decisions. We decided who to re-sign, who to cut and who's option(s) to decline. Additionally, we both get the chance to buy out one Sporting KC player's contract to save the salary room and get them off the books (and the roster). And finally, we decide what positions are of the biggest need at this moment. There are a lot of easy choices on who to bring back but, but a couple of very tough decisions. Sheena has a bit more of a heart, but in the ruthless business of sports, I act accordingly.  You'll probably want to look at all the contracts and salaries to know if we made the right choices. We also talk about Sporting KC's season ending awards, who we voted for, and who actually won.  Not to be left out, the KC Current battled back to earn a 2-2 draw against NJ/NY Gotham and to secure the 4th overall pick in the 2024 NWSL College Draft. And of course, the Digital Crawl, y'all! We dive into the following topics: Gadi Kinda's International games were cancelled. The United States U-23s Won! MLS 22 Under 22 snubbed Jake Davis. Austin FC 2, who eliminated SKC II, are in the MLS Next Pro finals. And the San Diego Wave win the NWSL Shield! Here is a quick rundown of topics (and approximate start times): Sporting KC Fantasy Sporting Director - 5:10 One buyout and a wish list for SKC - 52:14 SKC Award Winners - 1:05:48 KC Current Earn a Draw - 1:11:58 Digital Crawl - 1:18:36 Upcoming Games USMNT vs. Ghana - Tuesday, October 17th at 7:30 PM CST USA U-23s vs. Japan - Tues, Oct 17th at 9:30 PM (ussoccer.com) Sporting KC vs. Minnesota United - Saturday, October 21st at 8:00 PM Spotify took away our ads (which is a win for most, because they pay so little and annoyingly break up the podcast), so we turned on "Listener Support."

The NWSL Expansion Draft and the 2022 NWSL College Draft delivered some big trades and major surprises, along with controversy as well. I guess you could say there was a little bit of everything. Rachael Kriger joins Sean and Erik to discuss the big happenings, the trades, some of the players drafted, and also the controversy that ensued afterward involving the Portland Thorns as well. Not to mention, the news of NWSL now taking on United States Women's National Team salaries and the NWSL schedule framework too. Major League Soccer also ushered in a new team in Charlotte FC and they had an Expansion Draft as well, although trades made it to where they actually wound up only picking three players ultimately. But on the bright side, a largely MLS-based squad helped the United States Men's National Team get to 17 wins on the year with a 1-0 over Bosnia Herzegovina. Although the game wasn't much to talk about, Jordan Morris certainly had some nice moments at least. Also, USMNT players could be on the move in the January Transfer Window with Barcelona looking to move Serginio Dest, but actually want Christian Pulisic? Would it be a good fit for him in Barcelona? What about Ricardo Pepi at Atletico Madrid? And could Weston McKennie join Tottenham too?
