With the quick turnaround between Premier League matchdays in mind, we’re rolling out a steaming hot Pondcast a day earlier than normal this week. That means you get an extra day to digest each of D.J. and Jeremy’s experiences with the Premier League’s efforts to get you to waste two-thirds of your entire Sunday, a.k.a. super […]
If you were looking for 90 minutes of commentary covering Spurs v Chelsea, MLS Cup Playoffs, the U.S. Men’s National Team, and Copa Libertadores final drama… this week’s WSOTP podcast is just for you! The guys touched on all of those subjects and more on this week’s show, reunited back in the same studio after […]
It’s been a rough year for US Men’s National Team. On and off the pitch. First came the culmination of a disastrous World Cup qualifying campaign in October 2017, which forced the Americans to sit out the festivities in Russia last summer. That failed pursuit would claim not only the job of Jürgen Klinsmann but also […]
Despite picking up a nasty bug while in Chicago over the weekend, we managed to hold Jeremy to his weekly podcasting duties and pump out this week’s show — from an isolation chamber in his basement anyway. But even with great distance between them, the guys managed to rundown another big weekend of soccer on […]
One of the characteristics unique to the country’s growing soccer movement, at least when compared to traditional American sports, is how ingrained the ideals of localism are within the sport. That’s not to say you don’t ever see civic pride on display at NFL or MLB games. You totally do. Many of the fans who […]
One of the legends of the game’s recent era will call time on his days as a professional footballer this weekend in Louisville, Kentucky. Just the way he pictured it as a child in the Ivory Coast, Didier Drogba will look to cap off his glittering career by leading his Phoenix Rising FC to an […]
Last weekend’s domestic action takes center stage on this week’s episode of the #Pondcast, as D.J. and Jeremy dissect MLS Decision Day results and look ahead at the resulting MLS Cup Playoff matchups coming at us starting this week. We also devoted a sizable portion of the show to looking back at FC Cincinnati’s now-completed […]
The rapid rise of FC Cincinnati — taking to the pitch for the first time in 2016, record-smashing attendances, a first-place team chasing a title in just their third season, and securing the fastest-ever lower league club promotion to Major League Soccer — has prompted many questions. On the latest episode Lower League America on Compass […]
It’s a rare occasion when a marquee Premier League matchup lives up to its billing, but that wasn’t the case this past weekend when Chelsea vs Manchester United produced enough sparks to be called “lit”. As you might expect, D.J. and Jeremy discussed the goals and touchline drama before taking a look around the rest […]
Here at Wrong Side of the Pond, we’ve been known to take the international breaks off. That’s almost always the case during breaks without any meaningful matches for the US Men’s National Team, which was very much the case this time around, too. But this was no normal international break. First, the USMNT’s failure to qualify […]
