Suffering From Joy
Devan and Riley discuss the highs and lows of being a sports fan, from soccer to football to hockey and everywhere in between. Join us as we delve into the emotional side of sports, especially the horrible feeling of your team being ahead and the angst of knowing they just might not hold on.
We look at Austin's two matches after MLS return to play, discuss why the tactics were bad and Davy should feel bad, three foreign footballs, and a final world cup wrap up.
