In this episode of the Designated Players Podcast, we continue our series where we retell the stories of MLS history. We've gone through all the team's subreddits and asked for different stories they remember about their teams, and we've got a list of almost all of them. We are going to do our research and then come together to retell everyone about those stories and give them the spotlight they deserve. This week we're talking about the KC Wizard's... rather interesting Zardmeister during the 2003 season, followed by the absolutely WILD Metrostars vs SJ game, in which Amado Guevara was ATTACKED by a stray towel.Recorded on: 6/4/2023 Let us know your thoughts and if we got it right or right!

In this episode of the Designated Players Podcast, we are back and this week we're talking about MLS Commissioner Don Garber's thoughts on the state of the US Open Cup and we're talking about MLS teams not releasing players for the U20 World Cup. Don Garber had some tough criticism for the state of the current US Open Cup, and we're here talking about if his criticism is just, or if he's being a bit hypocritical (hint, it's a bit of both). After that, we're talking about MLS teams, specifically the Chicago Fire, not releasing players for the U20 World Cup, and also Jim Curtain's thoughts on releasing players.Recorded on: 5/6/2023Let us know your thoughts and if we got it right or right!Send any emails with questions or comments to: thedppod@gmail.comFollow the Pod on Social Media!Website: https://thedppod.buzzsprout.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDPPod1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/designated_players_podcast_/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDPPodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedppod

In this episode of the Designated Players Podcast, the guys are back and this week they're talking coaches on the hot seat and coaches potentially on the hot seat. It's a bit early in the season, but there might be enough for some discussions to begin. We discuss if it is fair for them to be on the hot seat, or if they need more time. A few coaches we mention are Vermes, Struber, Fraser, and more, so listen in and let us know if you think we got it right, or if we missed anyone.Recorded on: 4/23/2023Let us know your thoughts and if we got it right or right!Send any emails with questions or comments to: thedppod@gmail.comFollow the Pod on Social Media!Website: https://thedppod.buzzsprout.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDPPod1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/designated_players_podcast_/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDPPodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedppod
In this episode of the Designated Players Podcast, the guys are back and this week they're coming with a quarter season recap on MLS action thus far. As we are just about at the quarter mark for most teams, we wanted to take a look at each team and answer a few "simple" questions. We ask, 1) is the team under or over performing, 2) who has been the best player, and 3) who has been the team's most and least impressive players this year. Some teams were so easy it only took about a minute to answer, others however we are still trying to answer to this day. We did have to split the recap into 2 separate episodes, so this episode is covering the Western Conference, and we already covered the Eastern Conference in episode 150, so give it a listen!Recorded on: 4/15/2023Let us know your thoughts and if we got it right or right!Send any emails with questions or comments to: thedppod@gmail.comFollow the Pod on Social Media!Website: https://thedppod.buzzsprout.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDPPod1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/designated_players_podcast_/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDPPodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedppod
