About this episode
The episode discusses the quality and perception of MLS as it begins its new season.
MLS season is underway, which means it's time for our Rondo guys to get excited about American soccer again. To be honest, they missed it quite a bit. So, to kick things off, we decided to ask one big fat question: Is MLS actually good? Sure, Lionel Messi plays here and teams are now valued at nearly $1.5 BILLION. But does anyone want to watch the product on the pitch? Should they care? And, most importantly, is this a RETIREMENT LEAGUE?Raheemovic, Corbin Mills, and Tom Hindle break down the league shortly after its 31st birthday as it moves from startup to major player in the soccer world.
