“Concrete” is the word Gass was looking for. Now a staple of most frozen custard stands, the creation of the concrete is credited to Ted Drewes in St. Louis.

I need a clip of Gass’s take at 35:50. Clip it, ship it.

Cement 😂😂😂 I believe you the word you wanted was concrete.

Rafa Navarro is Richie's equal in diving. Absolutely. In fact, in terms of getting away with going over other guy's legs, grabbing their sleeves then going down so they look like they're being held etc, Navarro has no equal.

As a lefty, I may have skipped to the end to listen to the Lefty XI. I'm an SKC fan also, so I have a soft spot for the longevity of Seth Sinovic. I think he could be a solid backup to Kai and DaMarcus. Can't really make an argument for him being a starter, but would've loved to hear him mentioned.

For the future of MLS, I'm make it simple = MLS player gets sold to an EPL club and makes an instant impact.

1) I presume that's usually a 22-27 year old player who's played in MLS for a few seasons.

2) Right now, I think EPL clubs believe the move from MLS to EPL is way too high a step. I would today... EPL trust purchases from La Liga the most

"We could be better than Liga Mx." First, get people to attend matches religiously, particularly mid week. There's some skein of denial circulating in MLS these days, and those who cover it, in which no one seems able to look at each week's highlights and see that stadiums are half empty much of the time, at a bunch of clubs. I don't care what their announced attendance is, you will have a hard time convincing me that there were more than 10K at the Red Bull/St. Louis match the other night. Eight of 10 seats are empty, visually, throughout the game on Apple. That happens -- albeit not every match -- at a bunch of teams in this league.
