New Mexico United snapped a two-month winless streak over the weekend against Zach Prince's old club, Charleston Battery. It was clear that something changed from the matches leading into the clash, but what? Jacob is back this week, but neither he nor Earl did their homework and get taken to school over the tactics that United used. Find out more at https://somosmas.pinecast.co This podcast is po...

EA Sports and FIFA have parted ways beginning with the 2023 edition of the game and as a result ESPN FC is born. Could we see changes to the USL agreement with Konami? Jacob is out of town this week so it's just Seth and Earl, and we guess Gerry decided to crawl out of his hole as we discuss the matches against the Fighting Landons and Charleston Find out more at https://somosmas.pinecast.co This...

Zach Prince, Harry Swartz, Ford Parker - Post match vs San Diego Loyal SC

It's a full table tonight as both Jacob and Earl return and we open up the show talking about mental health awareness. May is National Mental Health Awareness month and it's extremely important that everyone takes care of their mental health.

After a hard-fought match over the weekend, United has a short turnaround into the Open Cup third-round match against Phoenix Rising. United did a lot of things well on Saturday, but it wasn't enough to overcome their opponents. They get another shot at beating Rising for the first time on Wednesday and even with Ford Parker between the sticks, the outlook is promising. We also give a short previe...

Earl is back from Jerry-world and somehow got his hands on some free merch. But the big story this week is the injury to Alex Tambakis, New Mexico United's #1. Does Ford Parker get the chance to step up against Phoenix Rising FC? Does the front office have a backup plan until Tambakis returns? The path to the Open Cup title once again goes through Rising and the cast discusses the draw and where s...

Joining us once again this week, David Carl, Director of Communications & Fan Experience for New Mexico United, takes time out of his busy week to talk about how special the 2019 Cup run w...

For the first time since 2020, El Paso Locomotive FC lost a match at home during the regular season. New Mexico United snapped that streak and they were the last ones to win in El Paso before the streak started.

After winning their home opener, New Mexico United turn their attention to El Paso Locomotive. Both clubs looked good in their openers but had vastly different outcomes. History tells us that this will be a tight match and if the bad blood from the pre-season is any indication of things to come, there could be fireworks on Saturday night.

Just when the NFL thinks it can one-up the USL Championship, the regular season fires out of the starting gates this weekend. The guys take time this week to try and debate what the Lights will do without a full roster to be found anywhere and contemplate how big of an influence LAFC will have on them this season. Closer to home though, we think we know what is going to happen in terms of a team s...

The season is only days away and the best way to kick off the return of our weekly coverage is to bring on a special guest.

Topics include: Update on Dev, Amando, Raddy New Signing Ford Parker How to 'find your 0' Jacob's Forehead Also on this w...

After a historic halftime show at The Big Game, we somehow get dragged into a discussion about who the best lyricist is before getting into the actual news and notes from New Mexico United Nation. It's been a slow news week, but there was still some news and some preseason action to talk about. With less than a month to go before the season begins, we're excited to keep talking United. Find out mo...

We're back with another episode of the Runners Report. This past Saturday, the Runners played host to former keeper Casey Gasson and his new club Colorado Inferno FC.

Even with a couple of slow news weeks from United, they still made a splash by bringing in Jerome Kiesewetter. The roster is nearing completion and the preseason begins in earnest this weekend in San Diego. Oh, and we somehow manage to talk about the dumpster fire that is NISA

Raddy Ovouka is official. The Runners picked up their first win and we know the 2022 USL Championship schedule. Nine new opponents await United this season on their quest to win the USL Cup. But before we get into that, we're joined by owner and president of the New Mexico Runners, Andres Trujillo to talk about how he got into owning the franchise and the club's first win of the season. Find out m...

The start of the New Mexico Runners season hasn't quite gone to plan. No one expects to start with five consecutive losses. There are good things happening out at the Rio Rancho Events Center though and the return of Isaiah Madrid could be a catalyst for the club over the rest of the season. Seth had a chance to watch the club live and talked to Isaiah and Coach Steve Famiglietta afterward. Find o...

Jacob asked and Santa Trevisani delivered over the holidays. After a quiet beginning to the offseason in terms of player signings, United opened up the gift sack and announce six new players over the two week break. This week Carlos Tenorio (Sombrero Man) joined us to highlight each of the signings and the reveal of the USL 2022 season format.

The USL season is over so we had an opportunity to interview NM Runners Head Coach Steve Famiglietta ahead of the new MASL season.

The Runners ( @nmrunners ) kick off their season this we...
