Expect the unexpected I guess! Chicago won their first match of the 2022 Challenge Cup 3-1, in a performance against the Houston Dash that showcased tweaks in defense, Mal Pugh in great form, and the ongoing puzzle that is NWSL penalties. We also talk a bit about what to expect on Friday in Chicago's second match against the Kansas City Current
We couldn't leave you hanging. Chicago has their first Challenge Cup game on Sunday, March 20 against the Houston Dash, so we sat down to do a check-in on vibes, read some tea leaves on new faces on the roster, and set reasonable expectations for a season that we won't know much about until it happens
We came back for the new year, and promptly so did Yuki Nagasato. Blessed.
We sat down to chat philosophical preferences on Chicago's upcoming coaching hire, an active trade season, and the return of club legend Nagasato, whose return both highlights and could possibly assuage some foundational concerns surrounding the Red Stars this year.
It's 2022 and we are back! at it! We talk Chicago's approach to the 2022 College Draft, Sarah Luebbert staying in Mexico, development, scouting, assets, and one very cool piece of local tv coverage news.
Chicago didn't do much this week, but that's never stopped us from talking soccer, so why start now! The expansion draft welcoming in the California teams happened on Thursday evening, and we sat down to talk relative value, hindsight, kindnesses, and backstage players. We also talked a bit about the nicest story of the week (not soccer) and what to expect from Chicago's strategy in Saturday's (not) college draft
We're off the map, babes.
The Chicago Red Stars made a series of trades, signed a series of players, sent a series of tweets and much more this week. So we're here to talk about it. On how the team got here, team legends, acceptable returns, and what on earth happens going forward.
Was probably always gonna be a long one. We sat down after some days away to talk about the 2021 Championship experience, the week that followed, our own feelings and frustrations, where things are at, and where they are going for the Red Stars.
??????????
Chicago is going back to the NWSL Championship after a massive win against the Portland Thorns in the 2021 Semifinals. We talk being thrilled and a little bit scared, choices, sleeper holds, and why we think Chicago can do it this time.
Have we got a show for you.
This week, Sandra and Claire sat down in Claire's living room to talk transparency, getting your GD COVID SHOT, and also Tierna Davidson getting a well deserved call up to visit Australia with the USWNT. We then dig into Chicago's very good win against Gotham FC in their home quarterfinal, and what to expect as they roll into Portland this weekend.
The Red Stars clinched fourth in the 2021 NWSL table and a home playoff game last week, and we are here! to! talk! about it! We sit down to chat tiebreakers, celebrating the things that look easy, what it's taken, what it's going to take, and who is going to need to step up to make sure Chicago makes it to another semifinal.
We're so bad at math. This week, we sat down to preview Chicago's regular season finale against the Orlando Pride, chat tie breaks, ties, possible not ties, maybe wins, perhaps losses, and everything in between that will determine the Red Stars playoff destiny (we make a hard prediction, if that's your sort of thing). Should hopefully be a good weekend of games. enjoy

What a weeeeeeeeek! The Red Stars get clutch wins over the Orlando Pride and Kansas City, all but clinching a path towards the the end of a long regular season journey that has glimpses of the postseason. We sat down to talk defense, pragmatism, execution, set pieces, identity, and jobs done. We also talked about the way the Chicago Sky snatched the 2021 WNBA trophy, what it was like to watch them do it and how such a massive moment in women's sports in this city could ripple forth.
Chicago has been thrown into a busy week, and with a loss to OL Reign on Sunday, they pretty much have to win out in order to feel good about the postseason. But on Sunday, the emotions weren't really about the game. We sat down to talk bangers, postgame statements, how we're feeling, how we think the team is feeling, and what happens next. We also re-preview the team's matchup against Orlando on Wednesday.
We recorded this on Wednesday. Please only listen if you want to. Not a good week, but here it is.
Sat down to talk Chicago's very good win against the Portland Thorns, roles, soccer ideas, ball winning, execution, and how the Red Stars can control their own destiny in a big matchup against the Orlando Pride.
NWSL games are back, and so are we! Southside Trap sits down to discuss the two USWNT friendlies against Paraguay, and how Mallory Pugh, Tierna Davidson, and Casey Krueger kicked ass. We also talk through their next assignment, another important league game against the NWSL-leading Portland Thorns - their first after the disastrous regular season opener back in May. dun dun dunnnn enjoy!
Another week, another game the Chicago Red Stars did not lose!! We sat down to chat defensive transition, a clogged attacking midfield, set pieces that kinda feel like team goals, call ups (recorded before Mal Pugh got three USWNT assists on Thursday night), and asked for feedback for our international break State of the League episode
Sooooo many things to talk about in the world of women's soccer, but we're here to talk about the Red Stars! We get into expansion draft rules, cool call-ups, injuries, recovery, 0-0 draws, fixing old problems and not causing new ones, and Chicago's next must-win against the Houston Dash*
*lol we‘re dumb, Chicago’s played two games against Houston, a loss and a win. Points stand!
This season, Chicago's won some games, and they've lost some games, and they've tied some games. Now it's time to get a streak going before they run out of time. Southside Trap sits down to talk goals, trips, stadiums, fans, and what it's going to take for the team to stop treading water and start feeling like a factor in this year's NWSL season
Chicago's stuck in something of a cycle, and so are we. This week Southside Trap sat down to talk rain, injuries, lineups, running, kicking, tackling, and whether this game was unlucky or not. We also prep for Cup Dub, and talk what might be in store for the Red Stars this week (...a challenge).
