Episode 251 - NASL v. USSF Update

Since last time we checked in on NASL v. USSF, the trial judge denied the league the preliminary injunction it sought to try to stay alive.  That decision has already been repealed.

Mike talks about this development and other soccer-related news that relates to this case, including the Columbus-Austin-San Antonio cluster-mess, the betrayal of one NASL owner, and the USSF Presidency being opened for business.

We at the WSC podcast support Eric Wynalda in his bid for USSF President.  He is the only candidate so far that has called for #ProRelForUSA and fixing the broken US soccer system.

Your 2017 World Champion Houston Astros!!

Congratulations to the Houston Astros on winning their first World Series title!!

Before the season started, Mike had picked the 'Stros (a team he has great affinity for) to win the World Series this year... and he got it right.

SAFEty never felt so good.  Especially since Twilight Imperium still looms large.

Fun fact: Astros manager A.J. Hinch was briefly a catcher for the Royals, where one of his teammates was outfielder Carlos Beltran - who is still playing and on this year's Astros roster.
