Flora and fauna will strike back

D.C. United can’t find any points against the Vancouver Whitecaps, but they must press on and so must Filibuster. Jason and Ben are here to break down the Whitecaps game, and we sent Adam to the wilds of the National Radio Quiet Zone (or something like that). We talk about D.C. United’s offensive woes, the fact that they almost had their Best XI available and what that means for who want want to see playing, the problems at defensive midfield in this game, and our review of Ema Boateng and Ola Kamara’s first action.

In the second segment we bring on Mark Fishkin of the Seeing Red podcast to talk about the first Atlantic Cup matchup of this season (somehow). We ask him about Aaron Long’s transfer saga, Brian White versus Bradley Wright-Phillips, the team’s inconsistencies, MLS disrespecting the Atlantic Cup, Kaku, and more. Give it a listen!
