    Best Win, Worst Loss: Seattle Sounders emerge TOOTHLESS vs. LA Galaxy

    On this episode, we break down the emotional rollercoaster that is the Seattle Sounders, from the season’s best win straight into the worst loss, the end of the home undefeated streak, and a worrying stretch of form that was only partially salvaged by the Earthquakes win. We talk Moose’s tooth, then dive into some obligatory striker discourse, including a discussion on whether Seattle’s investment in Jordan Morris was justified, and what Craig Waibel’s response might be if asked about urgency at the striker position. Then, we widen out to the Western Conference, debate which team is clearly superior to Seattle, and preview LAFC as the next opponent: what’s the vibe going into that matchup at BMO Stadium and how should Seattle approach it?

  3. Are the Seattle Sounders wasting money?!

    MAY 15

    Are the Seattle Sounders wasting money?!

    Once again, every MLS club is out of Conacaf Champions Cup, which means the 2022 Seattle Sounders remain the ONLY MLS team to ever win the modern version of the tournament. What did that Sounders team have that the rest of MLS still hasn’t replicated? We dive into the roster construction, mentality, depth, experience and timing that helped Seattle break through where every other club has fallen short. Then we shift into the ongoing No. 9 discourse surrounding the Sounders attack, including the current striker platoon of Jordan Morris, Osaze De Rosario and Danny Musovski. Is there a real answer on this roster? We wrap up by digging through the MLS salary guide to identify the biggest bargains, best values, and biggest over- and under-performers on Seattle’s roster relative to their contracts.

    Seattle Sounders Lineup Puzzle Just Got Harder

    We'll kick off with a full breakdown of another 1-1 draw for the Seattle Sounders and why the result felt like two points dropped after the Sporting KC stalemate. Then, we shift into the ongoing discourse: who should lead the Sounders' attack? Was Danny Musovski’s goal against San Diego enough to earn him a run in the starting role? We also address the emerging left-back issue after Nouhou appeared to take a knock late in the match, who might need to step in, and how that change could affect the lineup. Later on, we preview a daunting midweek matchup with the high-flying, league-leading San Jose Earthquakes and outline adjustments Seattle must make to survive a side in excellent form. Finally, we scan MLS Matchday 12, highlight LAFC’s surprising collapse to Houston, and consider whether Concacaf Champions Cup fatigue is a league-wide factor.

  8. Sounders-San Diego FC Breakdown & Inter Miami's Historic Choke!

    MAY 4

    Sounders-San Diego FC Breakdown & Inter Miami's Historic Choke!

    We check in after Seattle’s surprising 1-1 draw at Sporting KC and discuss if we should be worried about the offense or chalk this one up as an outlier amid an otherwise strong start. Then it's time to preview Seattle's upcoming showdown with San Diego FC at Lumen Field this Saturday. We'll see if we can figure out why SDFC have regressed from last year’s historic expansion form, and why Anders Dreyer still makes them dangerous. Later on, we'll dive into some league-wide results reaction from Matchday 11, including the fallout from Inter Miami blowing a 3-0 lead to Orlando City, which many are calling one of the biggest chokes/greatest comebacks in MLS history. Are they in freefall in South Florida, or can Lionel Messi & Co. right the ship?
