S04E18 - You Can't Always Get What You Want

S04E18 - You Can't Always Get What You Want

With a few noteworthy exceptions, all's quiet on the Union front.  But with national teams from all over the world converging on our North American home, two-thirds of the AMPU crew return to the studios to revel in the flawed but glorious spectacle that is the World Cup.  Without the sage guidance of Paul this week, C and E make a valiant go of things as they wish Mbaizo a sunnier future, celebrate Union announcer, Kevin Casey, living a World Cup dream, and dare to hope in a USMNT that could surprise the world.  May this World Cup unite us all. Sometimes, you get want you need.

S04E17 - Sliding Doors

It's a bit of down time at the AMPU studios this week, so we're allowing ourselves a little leeway in our topics of conversation.  Join Paul, C, and E as they wonder: What could have been if the Union had taken other paths?  If Bedoya ran for public office?  If Indy went into acting?  If Gritty was actually a secret weapon?  Ah, the world may never know. When you come to a fork in the road, take it.

S04E16 - Change, Change, Change

Things get a little philosophical at the AMPU studios this week as we come to grips with what was all but inevitable.  Join Paul, C, and E as they weigh in on one of the most record setting games for the Union that resulted in an Iloski hattrick, an actual Damiani goal, and still a loss for the Union.  And of course it was the final straw that broke the camel's back for Bradley Carnell's time as manager. The only true wisdom is in knowing we know nothing.

S04E15 - Ties, Damned Ties, and Statistics

Things are getting repetitive around the AMPU studios this week.  Once again, the Union lose/draw another game and the AMPU crew try to come up with something original to say about the Groundhog Day time loop we seem to be trapped in.  Join Paul, C, and E this week as they ask the profound questions: Have we've witnessed Carnell's last home game for the Union?  Is the 50/50 raffle an accurate fan support metric?  What is the worst haircut in MLS?  And in honor of Stephen Colbert (and to shamelessly steal his IP), Paul and C take the AMPU Questionnaire.

S04E14 - Alea Iacta Est

There's no sugar-coating the Union's performance at the AMPU studios this week: Injuries, mistakes, PK's, ridiculous Apple win probabilities. It's bad. It's real bad. Join Paul, C, and E as they celebrate firsts for Bender and Cavan, lamentably start the countdown clock on Carnell's tenure, and discuss the sense of freedom that comes when you're at the bottom. Zulu Foxtrot Gamma.
