    Boos & Bank-shots with AJ Edwards

    The Prinx Tire Cup is underway, and the Mingos’ hopes are deflated, despite one goal from AJ Edwards and a bank shot from Claudel N’goubou. Today on the show, Ethan and Rob talk through that match and whether or not the score reflected the performance. Then, AJ Edwards joins the show to talk about his origins in California and his role in Madison, and to learn in real time why Lexington fans were booing him the whole game. And in Stoppage Time: the club offers a way in for kids, and the MASL has its own version of Malice in the Palace.Follow the show @608Soccer on Blue Sky and InstagramFollow Rob @RobChappell365 on Blue Sky and InstagramFollow Ethan @Scarfboii on Twitter and @Goodkidmaancity on InstagramCatch up on past episodes and support the show at madison365.org/608soccer.

    Olimpico. Red card. Vibes. Chaos. With Geni Kanyane!

    Sunday afternoon's match between Forward Madison and New York Cosmos had a bit of everything: a long bomb, an Olimpico, a red card, four goals. And it still ended in a 2-2 draw and a pretty well-earned point for the Mingos. Today's guest is Olimpico-scorer-and-red-card-getter Geni Kanyane to talk about the match , his journey to Madison, and what you do when you've been sent off and have an hour to kill. We finish with a roundup of the week's league action and a preview of the League Cup first round, and in stoppage time: a Wisconsin amateur tournament to pay attention to, and drama in the first round of the USASA National Amateur Cup.Follow the show @608Soccer on Blue Sky and InstagramFollow Rob @RobChappell365 on Blue Sky and InstagramFollow Ethan @Scarfboii on Twitter and @Goodkidmaancity on Instagram

    Outside the box! Plus, we go to Cosmos Country

    A pretty even match ends in a harsh result for us, the only goal in the coming on a pretty questionable penalty call. Today, Ethan and Rob debate that call and wonder where all those goals we were promised will come from. Then, Jim Whelan and Jerry Cala join us from Cosmos Country to talk New York soccer lore and preview this Sunday’s matchup.Follow the show @608Soccer on Blue Sky and InstagramFollow Rob @RobChappell365 on Blue Sky and InstagramFollow Ethan @Scarfboii on Twitter and @Goodkidmaancity on Instagram
