The LA Galaxy played a lackluster first 45 minutes that saw them gift the Columbus Crew a two-goal lead. While there was an adjustment at halftime, the Galax's offense remains their most significant issue.

Sure, we'll talk about a game nobody saw! On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss the Galaxy's quiet last few days and why things might be about to heat up again! First, the guys talk about Auggie Williams and his goal against the Columbus Crew in a game that wasn't a game, wasn't real, and probably is just a figment of everyone's imagination. But Williams is trying to earn a spot on the senior team, and scoring in a glorified scrimmage is an excellent way to get Greg Vanney's attention. What could separate Williams from the rest of the guys trying to make this team? Next, Josh updates listeners on a rumor involving Victor Vázquez and why you can't compare him to Sebastian Giovinco. Are the Galaxy going to grab the 34-year-old? And what does that mean for the rest of the starting lineup? Especially when we tell you the Galaxy might be taking a significant step back from Cristian Pavon? Kevin will dive into the void of Designated Player signings and why Samuel Grandsir may be a product of teams who are afraid to spend money in another season affected by Covid. Could the Galaxy keep an open DP slot well into summer? And could returning fans to Dignity Health Sports Park means teams are ready to spend in 2021 once there's a path towards a "normal" season? We've got a busy show for you tonight with some good discussion on things that are causing the Galaxy problems early in the preseason!

And just like that, it was over. The Seattle Sounders were neatly dealt with by Caleb Porter's Columbus Crew in a final no one predicted. We break down the game and what we liked about both teams and where things went wrong for Seattle. And of course because there's no rest for anyone, we dive right back into Champion's League action, including a ridiculous red card, even by MLS standards.

In this episode of the Designated Player's Podcast, the Columbus Crew are your 2020 MLS champions! Congratulations to Columbus and your fans, a well deserved victory and a very good cap on a very interesting and weird season. We break down the game for you in case you missed it or want to hear our take on everything that happened. We also talk about trade day in MLS! You know that part of the beautiful game where you trade an international slot for GAM and/or TAM, classic. We talk about all t...

That's right. It's when the LA Galaxy leave individual players unprotected for the expansion draft! Yay! But with the draft happening less than 24 hours from when we hit the record button, we're sure the entire MLS world has changed. Hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss the entertaining but surprising MLS Cup win for the Columbus Crew and why that certainly hopes Seattle's chances of being considered in the same breath as the Galaxy's dynasty. And also why it shouldn't have surprised anyone with how poorly the Sounders have played in previous MLS Cups. But our real focus today will be mixing MLS's new rules with their old practices and trying to explain the expansion team process and why Cristian Pavon is going to be listed as eligible for the re-entry draft on December 17. And it probably means nothing... probably. Plus, Kevin will look back at some of the Galaxy names that have become successful head coaches and why he believes that the Galaxy have stopped their string of internal development when they can't get a consistent process on the field. It's a quick 60-minute look into the offseason Galaxy, and we're glad you could join us!
