Sporting KC had a rough week, losing their third game in a row after not losing in back-to-back games all season. BUT... the MLS regular season is officially over and SKC finished third in the Western Conference. On this episode, Remi and Dave try to keep things positive, even after Riley is out with unexpected car problems. Can Sporting bounce back in time for their first playoff game in a few weeks? We aren't sure, but we'll be cheering them on with all our might regardless.

This is our busiest week yet! We have three games on the docket after SKC followed up a disappointing loss to Seattle with two convincing Western Conference wins against Dallas and Houston. We dig into all the highs and lows, including Peter Vermes' odd substitution strategy, Johnny Russell's leadership, and Gianluca Busio's first goal for Venezia.

Also, did you know Sporting KC had a mascot? Or that Riley enjoys Winnie-the-Pooh fractals? Us neither.

Send us your questions and comments! We'll be reading several listener messages in our next episode October 17th after the international break.

Join us as we bask in the 4-1 win over LAFC that saw Peter Vermes earn his 200th win as manager, and discuss how in the world Tim Melia isn't an all-star after another standout performance in the 0-0 draw against Colorado. With Busio officially gone it's time to welcome new signing Jose Mauri, but more importantly what is Riley planning on doing with his crowdsourced transfer fee now that Venezia out bid him?
