  • The best!

    I love listening to Rog and Rory! No one makes me laugh in such an unexpected way. I get audible laughs every time I listen. Thank you I am so grateful to you for this wonderful podcast. P.S. why does Herc Gomez hate Pochettino?

  • Beautiful Game, Wonderful Hosts

    Rog‘s infectious sunny disposition made this curmudgeon American fall in love with the beautiful game. (Are we sure he’s from England?) World Cup coverage became part of my morning routine and I already sorely miss it. I didn’t realize they were in the Fifa Brazil World Cup video game! I’m so excited to have them as my commentary! Courage!

  • Pointless Yapping

    At one point MIB nicely filled demand for a solid football podcasts. But now with plenty of podcasts with superior analysis—e.g., The Guardian’s—MIB pales in comparison with its pointless banter and nonsensical detours.

  • Balo owns you

    I don’t like the pushing the storyline/agenda of a us wc is illegitimate because our striker got to play in a game after he was unjustly red carded in the middle of the tournament. That’s some loser baby behavior. And suspiciously selective about when and what rules you think should actually be enforced. Bad look for you soccer pundits.
