Questions Questions

Spoiler alert: So Cesc is the bad guy? And Pep? Seriously? and Great Question (pat myself on theback). 

A Pleasant Surprise

It's mostly Red Bull this week as we contemplate the pleasant surprise that is the clinching of the playoff spot, worry about Miazga being seduced by some low-rent English side, and still find time to marvel at Pirlo (and pick on Lampard).

Kreis' Crisis? And Who Needs Notes?

Is there a Kreis crisis? Not sure, but things are certainly looking up for NYCFC just as much as they're looking down. Oh, and I can't read a schedule. 

This Week in Oral History

What does Bill Clinton have to teach us about Louis Van Gaal, DeAndre Yedlin features heavily for no good reason, and Sunderland are here to keep you warm and healthy.

Good Guest, Crap Sound Quality

We talk to Nick Chávez about NYCFC, tasing, and Nick Chávez. Remember, you can find Nick at@NickChavezMLS on twitter. (Sorry about the sound quality, but at least it's only my track that sucks.)
