Or is this simply a case of agents getting bored before the transfer window officially opens? On today's show, host Josh Guesman discusses the rumors swirling around the Galaxy and why Major League Soccer can't add a fourth DP without revamping the salary cap system. We hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving, and we can't wait to start lining up some of these real rumors.

The Losses are mounting, and the LA Galaxy don't have many answers.

And then Derrick Williams told Spectrum that guys aren't listening to the coaching staff. So that means there's a big problem in the locker room, right? Maybe not. Let's discuss. Host Josh Guesman is joined by LA Galaxy beat reporter Damian Calhoun (LA Daily News / SoCal News Group) to discuss the Galaxy's loss to the Rapids and why the organization's dysfunction is showing its teeth right now. Josh and Damian want to focus on the Galaxy's Designated Players and why Chicharito, Douglas Costa, and Kevin Cabral have been more misses than hits. What does that mean for the last 14 games of the season? And is there a way to the playoffs during this final stretch of games? Plus, the Galaxy front office has some explaining to do regarding contract lengths and is not aware of who would have been coming available this summer. Is this evidence of more problems in the scouting and analytics department? We've got a great show ready to get you through the early days of this week. And get you ready for the introduction of Gaston Brugman on Wednesday. Let's get to listening!
