About this episode

The episode discusses the SDFC-Club América match, Leagues Cup strategies, and the transfer of Chucky to LA.

The Chromaniacs (Craig Elsten, Tony Sanchez and Alex Peña) intended to record this week's show after the SDFC-Club América match, but it was so lopsided (0-3 at halftime) that the boys went ahead and recorded during the second half. On this week's show... We start with Leagues Cup talk. This team just isn't built for altitude, is it? Mikey Varas goes to a five-man back line, and the defense gets worse? How the next two Leagues Cup matches might go, and how much SDFC could/should put into Xolos on Sunday Then, to the thing everyone wants to hear us talk about, Chucky to LA for the rest of the podcast
