OKay, so this show has been around for awhile. It is quite corny, but at least they are trying. Not sure what to make of the coaching segments they have with Mitts and Sullivan. And the fashion segment or whatever that is has to go.
But the segments they do on college teams, youth club teams, youth nat teams - that's what we need more of. So if they can expand this - this show would be stomachable.
And finally, I know the hosts are doing their best and they may not even really be soccer fans to begin with, but I had to cringe the other night they read an email question about MLS, and the guy host said the answer so that it sounded like "Jason Kreees". Ouch!

I heard the mispronunciation, too. The fan's question was, who has the single-season goals record in MLS (Lassiter) and who has the all-time record (Kreis). Hard to sound like a record-holder when TV hosts mispronounce your name (on a taped show, which means no one on that crew knows MLS).
Still, as you say, the show does what it can for youth players in America. I personally like the coaching segments because they're hosted by Americans who are personable and who you don't doubt know the game.

This could be the most pathetic show ever created. FSC should be ashamed of themselves for even thinking about unloading this garbage on people. The hosts need their heads smashed together for a double concussion. Who gives a damn about the results of the last Kids' Surf Cup? Get this crap off the air A.S.A.P.

You should be ashamed of yourself for constantly posting about how horrible this show is instead of ignoring the damn thing if you don't like it.

Quite. And that's one hour I know I'll fill with some other programming.

Oh Matt, take a pill.
It's a poorly produced show on EVERY level and that's why people have a right to complain. The customer is always right in this case, and FSC should listen.

I gave it a chance today and it was actually decent. They talked about Striker Magazine and the US Open Cup. And smoking hot Heather Mitts did a demonstration so I had little reason to complain. If they could do away with the segments about pop culture, it would be a pretty decent show. The hosts are alright when they're not trying hard to be funny. I give it a B+.
