Jimmy Conrad's American Soccer Spectacular

Co-hosts Jimmy Conrad and Frank Kuzava, who are arguably the greatest duo since The Dude and Walter, Xavi and Iniesta, and Ace and Gary, explore the hot topic of racism in sports and if it exists in Major League Soccer, how Jimmy got violated by an opponent during the run of play, and, some how, some way, they secure an exclusive interview with New York Red Bulls midfielder/defender Rafa Marquez's therapist. Maybe you should listen.

As if you would expect anything different, Jimmy and Frank's big adventure continues with some scintillating dialogue, which includes if the game of soccer is too socialistic for the capitalistic fever that infects the United States and if be better looking automatically makes you a better soccer player since confidence is a big component to performing at a high level. In all honesty, though, the show is dominated by former MLS MVP and current ESPN broadcaster, Taylor Twellman, who never met a question that he didn't have a five-minute answer to. Also, if you have any comments, concerns, or themes that you want Jimmy, Frank, or any guest to touch upon, then the page for Jimmy Conrad's American Soccer Spectacular on Facebook is the number one destination to have your voice heard. Check it out.

Picking up right where they left off after a brief one-week vacation to appease Jimmy's dream of being on television, Jimmy and Frank hold court about the important happenings around the country involving the great game of soccer. For example, Jimmy dissects the aristocracy of the U.S. Soccer pyramid power structure while Frank theorizes about the merits of jingoism as it relates to the head coaching positions of the U.S. National teams and in Major League Soccer. They also make up a new word, "Nyquilled," discuss why Pepto Bismal doesn't come in nacho cheese flavor, and welcome two guests to the show, forward and 14 year veteran, Josh Wolff, from D.C. United, and the executive director of the MLS Players Union, Bob Foose, to hash out, among other things, why we are trending in the right direction. So maybe you should listen. You could learn something.

Due to Jimmy's responsibilities to Fox Soccer and Chivas USA this week in the state of Florida, we are posting a favorite episode of Jimmy and Frank's from the end of 2010 season in lieu of a new edition of Jimmy Conrad's American Soccer Spectacular.

Following this scintillating discourse, Jimmy peppers two players with questions, Real Salt Lake defender Nat Borchers and Seattle Sounders FC midfielder Brad Evans, as they prepare to face-off, unfairly in our humble opinion, in the first round of the playoffs, Frank offers his tip of the week in a segment we like to call, "The Finer Points Of The Game," and a whole lot more so start listening as soon as possible.
