In this episode of the Designated Players Podcast, the guys are back and this week we're unfortunately talking about USMNT! We're going to discuss the recent, and very disappointing, friendlies against Turkey and Switzerland. We discuss where the team goes from here, who's stock up and stock down, and whether Poch is the right man for the job. Then we quickly discuss the Gold Cup and what it would mean to win, as well as giving what lineup we'd like to see starting against Trinidad and Tobago. Lastly we talk a bit about the Christian Pulisic drama and what it means for the USMNT with only a year away from the world cup. Let us know your thoughts!

In this episode of the Designated Players Podcast, we continue our series where we retell the stories of MLS history. We've gone through all the team's subreddits and asked for different stories they remember about their teams, and we've got a list of almost all of them. We are going to do our research and then come together to retell everyone about those stories and give them the spotlight they deserve. This week we're talking about FC Dallas' stunning win over the super team LA Galaxy, and then tying everything all together talking about the 2010 MLS Cup Final between Dallas and the previously discussed Colorado Rapids.
