    Wins All Around - Shades of Blue Soccer Show Jun 25, 2019
    Show notes

    It's a great week for soccer in Kansas City with Sporting finally getting a win over Columbus, the United States Women beat Spain in the World Cup, and the USMNT is coming to Children's Mercy Park on Wednesday! Cody, Bob, and Thad were in the studio on Monday night to talk about all the wins coming in.

    The match may not have been the prettiest, but Sporting Kansas City claimed all three points over the Columbus Crew and are starting to show signs of their old selves. Tim Melia was back to his old tricks as he bailed the team out more times than we can count. Botond Barath also gets some praise in the podcast after establishing himself as a rock for the defense. Benny Feilhaber had absolutely no idea what was going on when SKC got the goal. It was a really, really bad look for him. But the podcast found it hilarious.

    Spain proved to be quite the test for the USWNT on Monday, but they advance after two penalty kicks that sparked a lot of discussion. Don't you just love a good ol' "Pen or No-Pen" argument?!

    With the USMNT in town and training at Pinnacle, Thad got to hear from Gregg Berhalter and get a glimpse of training as well. What does Gyasi Zardes do better than Jozy Altidore? Does Berhalter switch up the lineup to rest anyone? There is a lot to unwrap with the national team right now and we even reminisce on past USA matches in KC.

    The Yanks Are Coming - Shades of Blue Soccer Show Jun 19, 2019
    Show notes

    Sporting Kansas City took a week off and the podcast decided to use that time to recover as well. Cody, Aly, Robert, and Thad were back in the studio to cover a very busy summer of soccer. The Women's World Cup is in full swing and the USWNT caused a stir with their celebrations in a 13-0 win. The United States Men's National Team kicks off the Gold Cup after struggling heavily as of late. Plus, Sporting Kansas City will try to pull themselves out of a slump against the Columbus Crew this weekend.

    Aly and Thad have some strong opinions on Megan Rapinoe's (perhaps) excessive celebration. This is the World Cup, not little league. But where do you stand? Was this a close-knit team having fun - or was it rubbing it in the face of a team that didn't stand a chance?

    The USMNT has been quite the dumpster fire and they haven't inspired a ton of confidence heading into the Concacaf Gold Cup that they kicked off on Wednesday night. The team has gotten away from what so many fans took pride in - grit. What is the minimum this team needs to show in this tournament?

    The lineup for Sporting Kansas City is slowing starting to look better. Despite still missing likes of Roger Espinoza, Peter Vermes has a lot more firepower to work with. We ask the question, "Can things get any worse?" Players are returning and it feels like brighter days are ahead, but things must improve quickly.

    The Shades of Blue Soccer Show - Over It - Season 2 Episode 13 May 31, 2019
    Show notes

    Something has to give, right? Sporting KC got the monkey off their back with a 3-2 win over Seattle Sounders, but the troubles continued against a tough Los Angeles Galaxy team. Vermes' hand has been forced several times and he is just clearly "over it" when it comes to the injuries, suspensions, and national team duty.

    The crew discusses the last two matches, including Johnny F. Russell in all his glory. In the Seattle match, we saw Yohan Croizet step up to the challenge and really have a big impact on the win. But after just three days rest, Croizet - and the rest of the team - was a little flat-footed. The lack of rest definitely played a role, but SKC had plenty of chances to get a result against the Galaxy. They were punished for two mistakes with two goals.

    Looking ahead to the weekend, SKC travel to take on the Houston Dynamo. Just what the doctor ordered... another match on short rest in the Texas heat. Things won't be getting easier as the Dynamo are off to a hot start this season. We examine potential lineups and update the injury report as well.

    Sporting KC Podcast - The Shades of Blue Soccer Show: Progression May 23, 2019
    Show notes

    Conceding the late goal to the Vancouver Whitecaps extended Sporting Kansas City's winless streak to seven games and this podcast is running short on positivity. But Cody, Aly, & Thad are here to talk you off the ledge.

    We find something good - and something bad - from last weekend's gut punch of a draw. The progression is happening, the team is starting to look like themselves again, but the result was the same. Yohan Croizet has been a hot button issue and the podcast is incredibly disappointed in his performance this season. But Matt Besler is back and his teammates and coach could not be happier about it. Taking a look at the stoppage time equalizer, we decide the majority of the blame goes to Felipe Gutierrez, although it appeared most of the team switched off for that vital moment.

    Peter Vermes was recently interviewed and he mentioned SKC's pursuit of both Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Giovanni Dos Santos. While it is hard to say how extensive these were, it does show this team's search for players is never ending.

    The team you love to hate, the Seattle Sounders, come to town this weekend. They will be without a player who has inflicted plenty of damage to SKC, Chad Marshall, who announced his retirement this week.

    Thad gives an extensive report from training and Peter Vermes on the outlook of the lengthy injury report. Find out who is nearing return, and who the team will be without for the next several weeks. As always we get a close look at the lineup with the help of our readers in our weekly lineup poll. Who does SKC Nation want to start? And whose parents are just voting for them?

    Shades of Blue Soccer Show - 2019 Episode 10 - Injuries everywhere! May 04, 2019
    Show notes

    Cody, Robert and Aly get back together and a big topic has to be injuries. Who is hurt and how can Peter Vermes manage to put a lineup on the field with so many players hurt. A total of 11 players may be unavailable for Sunday. SKC faces Atlanta on Sunday and it will be tough match despite the fact the defending champions have been in a poor run of form this year.

    Shades of Blue Soccer Show - 2019 Episode 9 - Retro chat with Robo May 02, 2019
    Show notes

    The gang were back at it again but this time we had a very special guest. Rob Thomson, Sporting Kansas City Chief Communications Officer stopped in the studio for what was going to be a segment of our regular podcast. It ended up too long and so much fun that it needed to be a standalone pod. For those who dod not know, Rob (or Robo as we all know him) has been with the team since 1997 and has wore a lot of hats in that time. He has known almost every player and has been (at least one of the people) behind most of the great PR moves, promotions and practical jokes that Sporting KC has pulled off so well. The chat was supposed to be mostly about the old days but it ranged from stories about the old days to how Sporting KC went through the rebrand. We even find out a potential name before Sporting Kansas City was chosen (and yes it was bad).

    Shades of Blue Soccer Show - 2019 - Episode 8 - What the problem is? Apr 25, 2019
    Show notes

    All the gang is back together but our team does have us drinking tonight! In the first segment we talk about what went wrong in San Jose. A terrible performance for the boys in blue and even more injuries in the game. In the second segment we run through all the injuries and preview the New England game. With eight players out, what lineup did the fans vote for and who would the pod crew choose. Can SKC beat the Revolution. A little chat about Busio and Freeman headed ot the U17 team.

    Shades of Blue Soccer Show - 2019 Episode 7 - Kaku, San Jose and more! Apr 18, 2019
    Show notes

    Back at it again! Robert, Cody and Thad get together again with a little time between games. What an interesting match with New York that was. The big discussion point was of course the well deserved red card to Kaku. The real question is what will MLS do with him. Additional suspension? Fines? Make him stay in New York? Busio scored his thrid straight goal in three games. A good year so far for the 16-year-old. How much more will we see him? We cover the possible lineup versus San Jose and even get in some Kansas City Comets news.

    Shades of Blue Soccer Show - 2019 Episode 6 - No fooling, it was really 7 goals! Apr 02, 2019
    Show notes

    Sporting Kansas City laid a beatdown on the Montreal Impact over the weekend. Seven goals... SEVEN goals! A Nemeth hat trick, an amazing performance from Gerso and the entire team made for a really fun afternoon. The crew name their favorite goal of the day. A littke chat about the first sub off the bench was a 16 year old who then went and scored. As much fun as kicking Montreal's rear back to Canada was, the boys have to turn attention to CCL and a huge match in Monterrey. Cody, Robert and Thad talk aout what the team needs to accomplish in Mexico to have a chance back in Kansas City. I's not all good news, Jaylin Lindsey is out for a while and we try to decide what SKC can do if Zusi needs a rest.

    Shades of Blue Soccer Show - 2019 Episode 5 - It had to be Rubio! Mar 21, 2019
    Show notes

    MLS is taking a break during the FIFA window but that doesn't mean that Cody, Robert and Thad have nothing to discuss. Missing Aly but the Shades of Blue crew take a look at Sporting KC's win over Independente and the draw in Colorado. Every fans fear came true in Colroado, a former player scoring in his first meeting against SKC. With Hurtado's surgery, SKC will be a little short on natural center forwards for a couple months. What should Sporting KC do when Nemeth needs a break? A litte discussion of who should be the MVP o far in the season.
