Guesting on a few podcasts
I had today off as I prep for a wedding at a Brewery/Distillery on Saturday. Often times when I get a weekday off I try to get an interview with a Sounder, but today they are flying. I did a little proselytizing to an EPL fan that doesn't like the "americanization" of the sport. My comments on...
No Tougher Test - SSFC @ Houston Dynamo
Let's test something this week. Sounders FC has a recent (last 5) form of 1-3-1 (0/8) and Houston has a 2-2-1 (7/7) form in the same stretch of league play. Recent form would make you think that Houston is a mid-table team and Sounders a bottom of the barrel expansion club. Recent form would be...
Who's that whispering in the streets?
On Saturday I was on KJR-AM Seattle with Dick Fain talking the Rapids and Timbers matches and a bit about Montero as well. Direct Link for Media Player and for those that Podcast.

KJR-AM still leading the soccer battle

Yes, I am Super Dave
I just called into KJR-AM Seattle about the situation concerning ties. I did use to work there. Gas just had Kevin Forrest on and then moved to a segment discussing ties. Hopefully I served the soccer fans well.
Regular Major Media Coverage of Sounders FC
A few soccer fans have asked me if I think that Sounders FC and MLS are getting enough coverage in the Seattle market. They point out the 30,000 or so crowd, the good TV ratings for games so far and the general excitement they notice on the streets. But, maybe the problem isn't the media. Maybe...
And now there are two
There are now two sports stations with local programming complimented by national backbone. Yesterday I was able to catch only a few segments of Kevin Calabro in the afternoon, yet stayed on Mitch in the Morning. Over the next few weeks we will get to discover if either station goes for more...

MLS Draft Talk Saturday on KJR - Update x 2
Dick Fain will be having Matt Gaschk on for a segment today to chat about the results of the Super Draft. No word yet as to what time they will do their little chat. Fain in the past was kind enough to give me 10 minutes to talk about how he will approach MLS in this town. He said then that he...
