Calling Up A Friend

Susannah is leading today’s Committee gathering while David is off in the badlands riding a bison. The Committee is joined by Susannah’s former tag team partner and current co-host of Full Time for The Athletic, Jillian Sackovits. The duo are joined by Committee members Tom Bogert and Matt Doyle. Tom celebrates his championship victory at his adult rec soccer league. Jillian gives us the inside scoop of what it was like to be on the field for the Luis Suarez spitting incident after the Leagues Cup Final in Seattle. The crew discuss their best and worst transfers of USMNT players after the European transfer window has closed and Tom has gotten sleep. Susannah asks Matt if he knows what “RIZZ” is before Jillian unveils her Rizz Player Power Takes. The crew picks their preferred players to see for this Saturday’s USMNT vs. South Korea friendly in Harrison. 50 States of Soccer: New Jersey kicks off this week before closing out the show and give our flowers to Jillian and The Call Up.
