  • Suffering - Shades of Blue
    May 14 2024
    Postgame audio from Vermes & Salloi make it sound like another classic Sporting KC jettison could be on the way. #SweatBeGone A common complaint is that the roster Vermes built just simply isn't strong enough. But WHO isn't actually good enough? Vermes wants out of the GM role. They literally tried to replace him. Do you fire the Head Coach when the GM has already quit? Sporting used to tell fans this a club that chases trophies every year. But we don't hear that anymore. Have expectations changed? The KC Current are on the opposite spectrum with Temwa Chawinga establishing herself as must-watch soccer in it's truest form. Taylor Swift songs. S7:E21 Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Thad Loses His Mind - Shades of Blue
    Apr 22 2024
    Our own Thad Bell is as worked up as he's ever been after Sporting KC again dropped points at home, this time to the worst possible foe, St. Louis City. It was objectively a great game of soccer and we cover all the golazos, saves, and referees. Plus we take away all of the STL goals for being lucky. Thad and Cody don't hold back on their frustrations after Peter Vermes' postgame comments. It's not all doom and gloom as the Current pick up another nice win, making them undefeated through five. Plus the Comets got a big away win in the playoffs. S7:E19 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
