WSOTP pod: episode 17
WSOTP Pod: Season 1 Episode 17 I’m not sure if you noticed last week or not, but there was a lot going on in the world of soccer. On and off the pitch, there were nearly too many story lines to keep up with. Not only was the long-awaited draw for the 2014 World Cup held last […]
