  • Hates Free Speech

    When Jimmy Kimmel returned to the air last night, my local Sinclair station did not air it, instead only showing local news. Apparently no advertisers wanted to be a part of this blatant attack on our rights as Americans so all the ads were for ABC shows... and this single podcast.

    I can only infer that this podcast is ok with government censorship of free speech.

    Tim and Landon give an honest informed assessment of soccer in the US. I am tired of people sharing their views. They are on the outside sitting in the cheap seats making subjective statements. I deleted all my accounts and spend time listening to Tim and Landon.

Q: What was it like playing for the Memphis 901 FC?
It was good, but very competitive. Playing and managing all in one was challenging and competitive.
USMNT v Japan Reaction Livestream

They were similar in quality, but Japan lacked some key players that could impact the game significantly, similar to our own situation.
USMNT v Japan Reaction Livestream
Q: Do you think we played too conservative on the attack?
There's a real balance, and mature teams do this really well. We did a good job breaking pressure, but there are times when you need to pin a team in their end instead of trying to score immediately.
USMNT v Japan Reaction Livestream
Q: Landon, can you talk about the differences you see, especially in the off the ball play?
Flo is more vertical. He was great against Japan, particularly when Christian broke their pressure and he made himself available for the ball.
