We've got a new one today! We're debuting an episode concept we're calling "Take It or Leave It."

The idea is to bring research and objective analysis to hot takes, and see what stands up.Examples of topics covered include: European soccer would be better if there was a closed system Super League, heading of the ball will be completely gone from the sport within the next 10 years, international managers should be of the same nationality as the teams they manage, and many more!---Today's show is brought to you by...BetterHelp!

We were going to spend the episode breaking down the USA's 4-0 win over Oman, but realized fairly quickly into recording that we would have said a version of the phrase "granted, it's against Oman" about 100 times. So instead, we spent a little bit of time on the USA's victory and a lot more time on what we know (and more importantly don't know) about Gregg Berhalter's ideal starting lineup and overall roster depth. Plus, some Jets trash talk to get things going.---Today's show is brought to you by...BetterHelp!
