It might just be February, but with matchday one of the 2022 season looming this weekend, it’s time for the Pondcast’s annual Major League Soccer preview. The boys share their normal picks — playoff finishers in each conference, Supporter Shield winners, MLS Cup winners, Golden Boot and MVP selection, coach of the year, and three […]

Our second dose of #Pondcast this week hones in on the final third of the European campaign. In England, we analyze where things stand for the big six sides — aside from City, who are clearly running away with things. In Europe, our first glimpses of the Champions League knockout stage also saw some teams […]

Originally recorded two weeks ago after the conclusion of the international break — and following a series of literally icy results in World Cup qualifying for the USMNT — D.J. and Jeremy convened digitally to reflect on where the ‘Nats stand in the “Octagonal” and whether there’s cause for concern. The guys also chatted about […]

With Jeremy off on parental duties in the supposed “most magical place on earth”, we roped in longtime friend of the #Pondcast, Fletcher Sharpe (@SaintFDW) of Daily Detroit to fill in. Together with D.J., Fletcher helped rundown some of the biggest storylines from this past weekend’s Premier League action, including thoughts on Arsenal wriggling their […]

Covid has crept back into the fore, seemingly infecting everyone in sight, and things are no different for the #Pondcast. As a result of a breach in the Switzer household, the guys were back to recording remotely again this week. Thanks to the miracle of technology even, D.J. and Jeremy were able to discuss the […]

The boys finally reconvened for a return to the booth to record the first #Pondcast of 2022, which is starting to increasingly feel like 2020 all over again. After nearly a month away from the mics, we’ve seen a rash of covid outbreaks and postponements sweep across the Premier League and Europe, and D.J. and […]

On this week’s show, the guys can take comfort in knowing there’s no way they can put in a worse performance than what UEFA put out for this year’s Champions League draw. In addition to that hot-button topic, the guys also looked at the havoc OMICRON is bringing to the Premier League and what potential […]

Things got a little wild at the top of the Premier League this past weekend, with Jeremy’s Blues taking a tumble off the top after a loss at red hot West ham and City and Liverpool leapfrogging them as a result. Speaking of the Hammers, they’re leading the charge on an increasingly competitive race for […]

An international break and Thanksgiving travels combined to keep the guys away from the mics for a few weeks. But D.J. and Jeremy are back with bling to chat to talk about Ole Gunnar Solsjkær’s interesting departure and replacing at Manchester United, the delectable selection of MLS playoff soccer we’ve been served up this fall, […]

A seismic week awaits in here in the Queen City, with the U.S. men’s national team and Mexico doing battle in World Cup qualifying in Cincinnati for the first time at TQL Stadium. As you might expect, D.J.and Jeremy dwelled heavily on the arrival of the marquee match on the banks of the mighty Ohio […]
