Episode 69 - 69, Dudes! (feat. Jimmy Lopez, President of the 3252!

Send us a textTo quote one of our favorite movies, Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure, “69, dudes!” It’s Episode 69 of Defenders of the Banc, and this one is definitely a memorable one. We have a very special guest in this longer-than-normal episode of Defenders.With us today in beautiful Filimonster Studios is the President of The 3252, Jimmy Lopez! We are thrilled to be able to sit down with Jimmy and talk all things LAFC. Filly, Scarf, and Jimmy explore all of the recent roster announcements leading up to the Expansion Draft on November 19th. We discuss the 12 members of the Protected List, as well as the great debate of protecting Pablo Sisniega over Tyler Miller. It’s definitely hard seeing names like Steven Beitashour, Jordan Harvey, Lee Nguyen, Mohamed El-Munir, and Tyler on the Unprotected List, but with our ability to only protect 12 players, some tough choices have to be made. Who does Filly, Scarf, and Jimmy think are the most likely candidates to be picked? All three have different answers, so you have to listen to find out! Jimmy also gives us a hint at the offseason work being done by The 3252, including some amazing charity work over the holidays. Hear all about what it takes to come together to create the amazing tifos we are all in awe over before our biggest matches! There truly is no offseason for the leadership of The 3252. Jimmy even gives the Defenders a sneak peek at some new merch, revolving around the Supporters Shield. Trust us when we say to save your money for some sweet stuff coming! Speaking of merch, please heed the words of the president when he talks about the bootleg march being sold on Christmas Tree Lane.We also wish a big congrats to D9U on their 12th anniversary and FCFC Pod on their 1st! Our 1 year anniversary is just around the corner, and there will be much more to come about that soon! Thanks for coming with us on our 69th (giggly) journey of all things Black and Gold. Much more fun to come on Episode 70, including an appearance from our friend Vince La Rosa to clean up all the mess after the Expansion Draft! Thanks for listening!
