What a week for the Defenders of the Banc! First, we sit down with President of The 3252, Jimmy Lopez, on Episode 69. Now, Filly and the Scarf head to LAFC’s head offices in downtown to chat with Vince La Rosa.
You may know Vince from his many fantastic articles on MLSsoccer.com or LAFC.com. Or maybe the many pre- and post-game videos and insights while you are at Banc of California Stadium. Or maybe you know him as a co-host of Inside LAFC, the fantastic insider podcast, with friend of the pod Max Bretos. The bottom line is this: there is almost NO place with a Black and Gold connection that you won’t find Vince La Rosa.
With so much current and impending LAFC news, we picked Vince’s brain about a ton of different topics: Losing Lee Nguyen in the Expansion Draft, upcoming dates for options to be picked up (or denied) and new players to be signed, his take on the Shield vs. Cup debate, the 2020 All Star Game vs. Liga MX, and so much more. Finally, someone makes sense of GAM and TAM and what either of them mean! We couldn’t leave without asking him what it’s like to work with the voice of LAFC, Max Bretos. Will we finally see Vince conducting an interview in a jacuzzi? You’ve got to listen to find out!
We hope you’ll enjoy this first sit-down between the Defenders and Vince, one of what we hope to be many more to come! And if you haven’t caught up on Episode 69, with Jimmy Lopez, add that to your queue next!
