PODCAST: A Gut-Wrenching Loss to Houston could spark LA Galaxy in MLS Cup Playoffs

COG STUDIOS, Calif. — The LA Galaxy found themselves in line to capture the no. 1 seed in the Western Conference on Saturday night for about four minutes. And then it all went very, very wrong. 

On today’s show, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss the Galaxy’s loss to Houston and what that could do to their mindset. But does the loss also provide the perfect redemption arc? And could it snap the defense back into shape?

And the guys will dive in on the playoff schedule, why it sucks, and why the Galaxy might have an easier side of the bracket by finishing second. What goofy rules does MLS have in store for round one of the playoffs?

Let’s talk about it all as the Galaxy get ready for the MLS Cup Playoffs!
