Episode Notes

A few days ago, USA Eagle legend Marcel Brache blew up on social media by hinting that players would soon be able to pick their own numbers. Being a good natured guy, he agreed to jump on the pod for an interview to talk about the idea. After that, we dive into the usual fare: more OGDC signings, some news from around the MLR, and all the activity in the internationals this weekend.
