Maybe it’s just me, but it sure feels like the Major League Soccer off season is getting shorter and shorter every year. It seems as if it was just days ago that we were watching the Galaxy hoist their fifth MLS Cup trophy. Perhaps that’s due to the near constant stream of news now pouring from the […]

Despite it being a mostly “meh” weekend in the Premier League, there were a few storylines worthy of discussion on Episode 13 of the Pondcast. City, Liverpool, Spurs and Arsenal have all seen their form continue to slide, while Chelsea, Southampton and Newcastle have seen their stock continue to rise. The midweek Champions League action also merited similar […]

  I feel like it’s getting a bit redundant when I say there was a lot for us to talk about this week on the Pondcast — a new nickname for the podcast that we’re adopting thanks to clever /r/soccer user TommyShambles — but once again it was true.

Let me start this off by saying that, without a doubt, few people have had a more profound impact on the American soccer landscape than Landon Timothy Donovan.

From Toronto FC’s seismic signings to […]

With the MLS 2014 season just days away, D.J. and Jeremy figured it was high time to give the domestic first division a full preview ahead of this weekend’s First Kick festivities. You’ll here the guys’ thoughts on this season’s playoff contenders, what they’re looking forward to the most for the upcoming campaign, and where […]

Though I didn’t plan this out or anything, the fact that this week’s TWOL is very American-soccer heavy is oh-so-ironically perfect timing considering today is Veterans Day. That said of them, none of them have anything to do with veterans themselves. Anyway, many thanks from WSOTP to all of the veterans and current members of the armed forces […]

WSOTP Pod: Season 1 Episode 11 Episode 11 of the #WSOTPpod is a doozy. Hosts Jeremy Lance and D.J. Switzer dish their normal wrap up of all of the weekend Premiership action, per usual. But with the MLS regular season now concluded in spectacular fashion, we take a step back to consider the season as […]
