Episode 42: Aaron Rodgers is finally traded!! And the preview of the NFL Draft in Kansas City etc.

  • Résumé

  • Recorded on 4/24/2023

     

    In this episode, Ken and I talk about the NFL Draft being held in Kansas City this week, as I am currently working in the Metropolitan KC area. The city is coming off a high winning Super Bowl 57 against the Philadelphia Eagles and now hosts the NFL Draft, along with the World Cup soccer in 2026. 

     

    But before that, we discussed in length about Aaron Rodgers finally getting traded to the New York Jets, a trade that had been rumored the entire off-season, but was not made official until now.                                                                                     

    We discussed if he can change the Jets into a contender despite playing in a loaded AFC East, or will the history repeats again when the Packers traded Brett Favre to the Jets in 2008, which lasted only one season. 

     

    We also discussed in length about the US Soccer Federation finally hiring Matt Crocker, a Brit, as their new sporting/technical director, replacing ex-US Soccer star Earnie Stewart. While both Ken and I do not know anything about Crocker, we both praised his hiring rather than hiring a former US Soccer star to maintain good old boys network that has led to multiple lawsuits and dysfunction that has plagued the US Soccer, and the impact of who they will hire as the national team manager for the important World Cup 2026 campaign. 

     

    We ended our show with Wrexham FC, who won the promotion to EFL Two League this past season, and it's popularity in the US, thanks to its reality show shown on FX and Hulu in the US after actor Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney purchased the club, and touched on the need for promotion/relegation in MLS, which is still lagging in terms of popularity. 

     

    Note: I have not been doing a good job keeping up with the editing and uploading past episodes recently due to work and other personal things. My sincere apologies.
