Let's Fix Football 121: Ring Around the Rondo (ft. Kevin McCauley)

Let's Fix Football

Hosts Gabe Lezra and Evan Mateer are joined by Kevin McCauley of SBNation to discuss his revealing, exacting article about USSF's failures in recruiting talent from marginalized communities. It's a really interesting discussion that touches on everything from the Jonathan Gonzalez saga to USSF's institutional failings in recruiting talent. Also on the docket: USSF's newest scam, a $70 hoola hoop marketed to rich divorced parents who don't understand soccer and the candidate showcases at the USSF forum in Philadelphia. In Europe, the guys move on to Real Madrid's crisis (and why net transfer spend is a dumb AF metric for determining if a team is playing well), why Karim Benzema is actually a total baller and the people who are hating on him are wrong, and, well, Leeds' Nazi Mr. Clean crest. They also briefly discuss an update in the FIFA scandal.
