Welcome to Episode 18 of Defenders of the Banc, with your boys Christian “Filly” Filimon and “The Scarf” J.R. Lebert. In this episode, we prove that you can’t win them all in our recap of LAFC’s first loss of the season.
It was a tough night north of the border for the Black and Gold, falling 1-0 to the Vancouver Whitecaps. Hear all about the unique lineup rolled out by Coach Bob, the LAFC connection manning the bench for Vancouver, and our thoughts on what we could have done differently to keep our undefeated season going.
In addition to the game recap, it wouldn’t be a Defenders episode without our birthdays! Find out which great American financier has ties to Carnegie, Rockefeller, the Titanic, and Filly! Will the boys be able to find a wrestling-related birthday this week? (Yes.) Does Filly really attempt impressions of both Daffy and Donald Duck? (Also, yes.) This Day in LAFC History focuses on a former MLS Rookie of the Year’s small stint in the Black and Gold while Filly and The Scarf highlight the two different watch parties they attended. The first official tailgate inches ever closer while Filly takes a moment to remember his grandmother.
