Cold winters be damned, the world of soccer remains hot, hot, hot… at least that’s the way we saw it. A tumultuous weekend in the top seven of the Premier League for all but one team unfolded in England, giving D.J. and Jeremy plenty to discuss. The American preseason engine is also now warming up, […]

WSOTP pod: this is not the greatest sports story ever
A new #Pondcast on a Tuesday isn’t something we’ve been able to pull off recently, but we’re back on schedule again — this week at least. On this latest episode, Adam Maloney (@maloneyam34) rejoins us-as a guest host again to reflect on Leicester City’s now official Premier League title and Spurs’ spursing it away to them by surrendering a two […]

WSOTP pod: soccer’s johnny appleseed
Cup competitions were at the fore this past week — FA Cup, UEFA Champions League, Copa América Centenario and even the FC Cincinnati’s preseason participation in the IMG Suncoast Pro Classic — and as such, they take up a sizable chunk of this week’s #Pondcast.

in review: MLS jersey week 2014
It’s been an odd off season in MLS. Unlike years past where there was a definite lull in the amount of stories and headlines coming out of the league during the winter months leading up to the season, there was a near constant flow of announcements this time around. From Toronto FC’s seismic signings to […]
vitriol
In the early days of Major League Soccer, rivalries between fans were few and far between. At best, fledgling feuding began between the few geographically close sides like New York and Washington. At worst, the rivalries were completely ceremonial — think of the largely pointless Trillium Cup between Columbus and Toronto or the Brimstone Cup […]
