Rejoice because Filibuster is back to meet your ears on this Wednesday morning. Adam, Jason, and Ben are here to talk about what is going on with D.C. United these past two games, their comebacks from 2-0 down in both, and Taylor Kemp's ridiculous goal. Then we have to talk about what is wrong with the defense, and we specifically talk about Perry Kitchen and Steve Birnbaum. We then get into a news roundup! We talk about Populous being selected as the architect for the D.C. United stadium, talk about Andy Najar possibly being sold and what they would mean for United, and some disappointing news about United's academy. We breakdown D.C. United's upcoming game the Montreal Impact, and talk about Didier Drogba and the fixture congestion that Montreal is currently facing. We end the show by answering some of your Twitterbox questions. Give it a listen!

Adam, Jason, and Ben are back with an extra-long edition of Filibuster! We start off by talk about D.C. United's comeback victory over the Philadelphia Union. We talk about how impressive the comeback was, how they managed it, and the key play of Nick Deleon, Perry Kitchen, and Alvaro Saborio. We then have to talk about the first 188 seconds of the game, and we ponder why United has to come from behind so often this season. We then talk about the United States' disappointing showing in the Gold Cup. We talk about how losing in the semi-finals is not okey, despite the fact that other teams in Concacaf are getting better, and then go full-in on Jurgen Klinsmann: his lineup choices and his roster choices. We end with a twitterbox question and name some players we would probably include instead. Finally, we welcome on Brian Dunseth to talk about D.C. United's weekend game against Real Salt Lake. We talk about Jeff Cassar's 4-3-3 versus Jason Kreis' diamond, the Luis Silva trade, how Javier Morales is ageless, the phenomenon of good teams losing to bad ones, and how to gameplan RSL. Brian Dunseth is great, so give it a listen!

It is a Tuesday, so that must mean that it is time for Filibuster to come back into your ears. We don't even let the fact that we've sent Adam on assignment prevent us from calling him while he's on vacation and making him talk about soccer. We start with the loss to FC Dallas: we talk about what we liked and didn't like from the defense as well as the great performance Andrew Dykstra put in. We then wonder what happened for each time at halftime, and then talk for awhile about Facundo Coria making us very, very sad. We then move on to preview D.C. United's first home game in years, when they take on the Philadelphia Union this Sunday on national TV. We wonder if the Union will try and do the same thing they did in the Open Cup, how Alvaro Saborio will fit in for United, and the fact that the Union have a midweek game. We end by talking USMNT and the Gold Cup, and mostly wonder if there is anything we can learn from the Cuba game. Give it a listen!

Filibuster is back, and Ben, Jason, and Adam are joined by a very special guest: Sebastian Salazar from Comcast SportsNet Mid-Atlantic! We start off by talking about the Gold Cup, even though we recorded before last night's 1-1 draw between the United States and Panama. We talk about what's wrong with the USMNT, ask whether or not they are sandbagging like the USWNT, and talk about Michael Bradley as a number 10. We also ponder whether or not there is a chance Perry Kitchen gets called in to replace Kyle Beckerman. Since Sebastian is here, we then had to ask him about Mexico. We let him explain what's wrong with the Mexico national team and ask whether there is anyone in their current pool who could help D.C. United. We finish with D.C. United against FC Dallas this weekend. We talk about whether or not United can shut down Mauro Diaz, how they can deal with Fabian Castillo, and ask where the creativity will come from since Fabian Espindola is suspended. We wrap up by flinging praise and Andrew Dykstra and Steve Birnbaum. Give it a listen!

A late-in-the-week edition of Filibuster is here, but we would never leave you completely hanging. Jason, Adam, and Ben are back, and Adam starts off the episode with a rant about a certain new team down in Atlanta. We then move onto happier things, talking about the USWNT's 5-2 victory over Japan to win the 2015 World Cup. We talk about the brilliance of Carli Lloyd, praise Jill Ellis, talk about how Morgan Brian adapted to the new USWNT system, and talk about the rest of the defense and specifically Becky Sauerbrunn. We then have to move onto D.C. United and their two losses to the Philadelphia Union and the Seattle Sounders. We talk about the differences between the two games, and the play of Fabian Espindola. Hint: we're not happy with him. We finish up our MLS talk by mentioning a new funding source: Targeted Allocation Money. The USMNT is next on the list, with their opening match against Honduras now in the books. We talk about the men's team overall, how the diamond didn't work in this game, Timmy Chandler versus Jonathan Bornstein, and we pine over Andy Najar. Finally, we end the podcast with a question from our Twitterbox. Give it a listen!

Since there is ever so much soccer, its a Filibuster on a Monday! We start by reminicing about howl long it has been since we recorded on a Sunday (miss you, Martin), before getting into the meat of the podcast. D.C. United actually played Chicago last week, and we talk about Conor Doyle's golazo and the formation that the team employed in that game. We also talk about the draw against Toronto FC, and start off with the stellar performance of Steve Birnbaum in that game. We then talk about the defense overall and how impressed we were by them and how they did not give up a goal against one of the highest-priced attacks in the league. Finally, we talk about how TFC didn't really create many chances, despite the popular narrative that they dominated the game. We move onto tomorrow's game against the Philadelphia Union in the US Open Cup, and how the Union have been burning up their starters in the league. We argue that they should concentrate on the Open Cup, because they have a better chance at pulling a 2013 D.C. United then doing well in this regular season. We also talk about Friday's game against the Seattle Sounders, who will be getting Clint Dempsey back from suspension but will be missing Obafemi Martins. We compare Dempsey's suspension to what Cuauhtémoc Blanco got, and then talk about what Dempsey will do in this game and how United will have to play to win. Finally, we talk more about the 2015 World Cup and start with discussing their high press. We ask whether or not missing Lauren Holiday and Megan Rapinoe made the USWNT better, their central midfield tactics, and how the United States will approach this game against Germany.

It is an extra-long episode of Filibuster today, both because there is so much soccer to talk about and because Adam has abandoned us for fairer climes. Jason, Ben, and Leanne press onwards, opening the show talking about D.C. United's 3-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Riverhounds in the US Open Cup. We talk about how, despite leaving the game a little late, it is still a good win, as well as talking about Jalen Robinson specifically and what we want to see from him going forward. We then move onto D.C. United's 2-1 comeback victory over the New England Revolution. We talk about how the beginning of the game wasn't great, and then break down Fabian Espindola's role, whether it be goal scorer or provider. With a curse to the MLS schedule makers, we then move onto tonight's game against the Chicago Fire, and talk about Mike Magee, what worries about the Fire but why in the end United should beat them (because they're not very good right now). For the last MLS game of the week, we wrap up by talking about the Toronto FC game on the weekend. Sebastian Giovinco still scares us, Toronto FC can play physical like we do, and United's best strategy might actually be to just bypass the midfield to get the ball away from Michael Bradley. And since there wasn't enough soccer to talk about, we have to break down the USWNT and their game against Colombia. We talk about why you shouldn't feel great even with the win, the yellow cards received by Lauren Holiday and Megan Rapinoe, the ever-changing right midfielder, and how to win in spite of your flaws. It is a super-sized episode, so strap in and give it a listen!

When you wish upon a star, makes no difference where you are, any Filibuster your heart desires, will come to you! Filibuster is back on its regularly scheduled Tuesday delivery time, and Adam, Jason, and Ben have some soccer talk for you. We start off with D.C. United's loss to Orlando City, and we have to talk about the state of United's attack. We also talk about where Chris Rolfe can be most effective, the play of Chris Korb and Taylor Kemp, and the larger width issue that they bring and that is also up the field. We then talk about tomorrow night's US Open Cup between D.C. United and the Pittsburgh Riverhounds. We talk about its streaming, how they're scoring (and giving up) tons of goals, and what lineup we expect to see. We then move onto Sunday's game against the New England Revolution, talking about their season so far. We talk about their (sometimes) potent attack and how United can keep from failing against them. Finally, we talk about the Women's World Cup and the USWNT. We talk about how awesome Julie Johnston and Becky Sauerbrunn have been, the midfielders and also "midfielders" that Jill Ellis has played, and what we expect to happen today against Nigeria. Its a jam-packed show, so make like peanut-butter and give it a listen!

Ben has returned from Brazil, and so is back with Jason and Adam to bring you Filibuster on this lovely Wednesday. We start off talking about D.C. United's record playing during World Cups, which is not very good in recent memory. We then try and assign some blame on the game winning goal, talk about how Toronto played 2 games when D.C. United played five in the same span, what United can do about its tired squad going forward, and we bring up Jalen Robinson and his time with the US U-23s. We then have to talk about the newest D.C. United stadium news, and are happy that they're going to Buzzard Point (even though Ben is sad he's defending corporations). We then move onto this weekend's game against Orlando City Soccer Club, and open by wondering what position Brek Shea will play. We talk about how awesome Cyle Larin is, how much we still hate Orlando City, and how we get the season sweep from them. We end by talking about the USA's first game in the Women's World Cup, their play and why they should be better, and go around the rest of the results through one round. Give it a listen!

Despite some technical difficulties last night and the fact that Ben is editing this episode from Brazil, neither snow nor rain nor humidity nor Fiyur could stop this podcast from getting to you. Adam, Jason, and Leanne are here to talk you through the metric crapton of MLS games that D.C. United has played and that D.C. United will play (and probably games that United is currently playing as you listen). But before any of that, we talk about the epic bombshells of news that have been dropping, starting with D.C. United's draw for the Concacaf Champions League. We also have to talk about the leak that D.C. United could be talking to Virginia about possibly building a stadium in Loudoun County or Woodbridge. Finally, of course, we have to talk about the FIFA corruption scandal that broke last Wednesday, the re-election of Sepp Blatter on Friday, and then the resignation of Sepp Blatter yesterday. We talk quickly about the loss to the Portland Timbers, which feels like a year ago now, as well as the victory against the Philadelphia Union over the weekend. Then we transition to the future and talk about tonight's game against the Chicago Fire and this weekend's game against Toronto FC. Finally, we end with our preview of the USWNT and the Women's World Cup, which kicks off this Saturday in Canada! This show is literally overflowing with soccer awesomeness, so give it a listen!
