We go Off-White in Episode 136 with Greggo, El, and Mean Marc of the Cultureverse, we put away the Thanksgiving leftovers and get a plate of MLS Playoff Chaos, with big upsets of the #1 Seeds in both the East and West, with Colorado going out with a last minute winner by Portland, and Supporters’ Shield winners New England going out on penalties to NYCFC, giving us the prospect of an MLS Cup held at Yankee Stadium, and give our picks on who will make it to MLS Cup on December 11!
We also chop it up on the new hire of Ezra Hendrickson as Head Coach of the Chicago Fire, giving MLS currently a record three Black head coaches, though still pushing on ways to increase on that number and making avenues for all coaches to gain greater access to licensing in the US.
In the second half, we give our thoughts on Man United’s hire of interim Manager Ralf Ragnar- we mean RANGNICK, and if he can bring things to United to a proper focus following a 1-1 draw against Chelsea and upcoming match against Arsenal.
We close out with debating on the validity of Leo Messi winning a record 7th Ballon D’or despite a lackluster club season with both Barcelona and PSG, Eduoard Mendy getting snubbed for Keeper of the Year, we pay tribute to two Brothers in the Culture lost this past week- Memphis Rapper Young Dolph and Fashion Icon Virgil Abloh and in 2Up/2Down we comment on the Ahmaud Arbery verdict, coaching chaos in College Football, merch designing, AND MORE!!!
