2022/01/26

Howdy! Are you getting ready? You should be, as both USL and NWSL seasons are getting close! GD4 retires, Racing's 1st round pick Jaelen Howell signs, NWSL faces one of several hurdles that may delay the season, and the USMNT face some "cold" facts as it needs to bag a bunch of points in their next three matches coming up before their last set of games, which will be a real challenge. Joy Cecil and I break it all down for you in our own amazingly charming way :-) ... Available on Podbean, iTunes,

2021/11/17

What a week we had, and some crazy days to come! Last Friday, the USMNT won big against arch nemesis Mexico in style, and the next night LouCity gets a late goal from ... who else, right ... to get another massive win against a talented, game opponent to make the Eastern Conference final for the SEVENTH. STRAIGHT. YEAR! Unbelievable! (Ok yeah the draw against Jamaica was meh, but that's cool ... we're in a good mood!) Also, a huge match right here in Louisville is coming with the NWSL final here

The Center Forward Podcast! ·

2021/11/10

After having to endure the stupidest rule ever invented in the history of sports, it was a big victory last Saturday that propels LouCity to the next round of the playoffs! It was a fun night all around and it almost feels like we're getting back to something that resembles the old "normal again (Amen!). Joey and I do our best to break it down ... as well as Emily Fox is up for rookie of the year n NWSL, Detroit City joining USL, the USMNT have a HUGE match Friday night v Mexico, and the USWNT gets

2021/10/13

Good morning! Nice to be back at it after a week off due t training for my new position. In this week's podcast, Joey and I cover three teams with three different trajectories: LouCity has an epic ending to their home match against SKC2 and begins to ramp up for what yet may be another deep title run, Racing fights hard but endures another loss while mired in a slump in a league that has some MAJOR issues, and the USMNT ... well, is doing USMNT things that sadly we've come to expect.
