Happy 20th episode! Hard to believe we have already done so many of these. Thanks to everyone who has been with us thus far. Twenty down, many, many more to go. Even better, we get to celebrate 20 episodes by talking about a big draw against reigning champions Gotham FC. In the first of two episodes scheduled for this week, Andy and Courtney are joined by returning guest Cathy to recap the big road point from the weekend.
After that we are joined by Luis from Loud & Proud Orlando Podcast to preview the midweek game vs Orlando Pride. Luis gives us a ton of great information on the Pride over the years, how they are looking this year and what we can all look forward to for this week's match. As always, the podcast ends with our prediction segment. First, a review of the standings after Saturday's game vs Gotham (spoiler alert: Courtney finally guessed it correctly last game, and we are sort of all over the place this week).
Results After 8 Games
- Opposition Guest: 9 points
- Courtney: 4 points
- Andy: 3 points
- Guest: 2 points
Predictions for Game 9
- Andy: 2-2 draw
- Courtney 1-1 draw
- Cathy - 3-1 Pride
- Luis: 1-0 Pride
General consensus in these predictions: We are a little afraid of what Barbara Banda could potentially do on an offensive front.
