Stay ConnectedSoccer is exciting, but soccer talk is so boring…UNTIL NOW.
Alexis Guerreros and Christian Polanco want to bring laughter to the beautiful game. Soccer is a growing sport in America and our goal (pun intended) is to show that American footy fans are unlike any other in the world. Through the lens of stand-up comedy, The Cooligans deliver hilarious takes on American soccer that are refreshing and fun and make fans of MLS and US Soccer enjoy the league much more than they ever thought they could.
The USWNT absolutely demolished Thailand in their opening match of the World Cup. People had questioned the strength of this USA squad, and hopefully they were silenced. Even with a win, there was still lots of drama since many thought the US should not have run up the score and celebrated every goal against a weaker opponent, and we talk about it.
We're also joined by eMLS pro Mike Labelle of the New York Red Bulls to discuss the World Cup and talk comedy.
