| 00:00 - 00:03 | Mr. Lagerway, here's where we're at with our player contracts. |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | We declined Gudiño's option, |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | and allowed Rocco's and Ronaldo's loans to expire. |
| 00:08 - 00:12 | We've spoken with Josef regarding our future plans, |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | and River Plate is paying for Barco for another year. |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | So that'll leave us with lots of cash, |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | to fix problems in the attack and defense. |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | Mr. Lagerway... |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | The salary cap... |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | We still have zero flexibility in our roster spend. |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | We spent all of our allocation money on dribbly bois. |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | The following stay here: Carlos, Gonzo, Dimitrios, and the "analyst." |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | GUYS. WHAT THE FUCK. |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | You're telling me you spent millions on *THAT* midfield? |
| 01:18 - 01:23 | And now you're stuck trying to create goals through Edwin Mosquera? |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | Is this what it's come to? |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | You're giving Rossetto the armband, week after week, |
| 01:31 - 01:34 | and expect that to excite the Supporters Section?! |
| 01:34 - 01:37 | You haven't had a true box-to-box player |
| 01:37 - 01:40 | since 20-fucking-19! |
| 01:40 - 01:42 | We picked up Rossetto's option because we see him as an 8– |
| 01:42 - 01:46 | What? On a scale of 1-100? |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | Garth, you haven't seen these guys in training. |
| 01:48 - 01:52 | Not another word out of you, if your name isn't Ravi Ramineni. |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | Do you watch the games?! |
| 01:56 - 01:57 | Lousy goalkeeper cycles the ball at the back. |
| 01:57 - 02:00 | Gutman efforts something out of pure necessity, |
| 02:00 - 02:03 | and finds a pass to your *one* really good player (still in your own half). |
| 02:04 - 02:08 | He gets marked to hell, and passes to your slowest player |
| 02:08 - 02:13 | who dribbles, with his head down, out towards the wing! |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | Every game. 90 minutes. |
| 02:17 - 02:21 | Your entire game is just surrounding the box, and stalling! |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | I hope you invest in your academy. |
| 02:30 - 02:34 | 35-year-old GM at Salt Lake in 2007. |
| 02:34 - 02:36 | MLS Cup Champions in 2009! |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | How did I get here? |
| 02:43 - 02:47 | Biggest sandbox in the league, with absolutely no sand inside it! |
| 02:48 - 02:53 | "oH! gArTh LaGeRwAy WiLl FiX eVeRyThInG!" |
| 02:54 - 02:56 | I'm not an actual fucking wizard, you know... |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | I only played for them in '96! |
| 03:00 - 03:02 | TEAMS DON'T GET AWAY WITH CAP CRIMES ANYMORE! |
| 03:04 - 03:07 | Easy, he doesn't know about Erik Lopez yet. |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | We have to tear it down to the studs. |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | Sell or trade the only ones worth anything. |
| 03:25 - 03:26 | Start with Marcie. |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | Maybe we can sign a free agent. |
| 03:40 - 03:46 | Hit up Montreal and see if we could get half a mil for George Campbell. |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | Their front office is the Mississippi to your Alabama. |
| 03:53 - 03:56 | Them 5 Stripes is hell. |
