I’m a Union season ticket holder and listen to your podcast regularly. Your latest podcast convinced me into going to this game. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it. In fact, it was probably one of the best games I’ve seen - period! The team played with great energy and grit. They never gave up. I wish the first team played with some of that swagger. It was the first time I sat near the U’s bench and was fascinated watching Coach LaBlanc strategizing with his staff, interacting with the players, shouting out instructions. You can tell he likes the players and has a good relationship with them. I wish them great success against North Texas.

Joe, thank you so much for this comment; it means a lot. First, thank you for taking time out of your day to listen to the podcast regularly—sometimes the episodes can be extremely long, and I appreciate you sticking with it. I’m glad my latest episode convinced you and your wife to go to the game this weekend. What a thrilling game! Seeing a record-breaking crowd for a second team game was incredible. I’m glad the players and staff got to have their moment, lifting a trophy in front of all those people! There haven’t been many games this season at Subaru Park like that for the first team, so I’m glad the second team could provide that experience for the fans this weekend. Hopefully, some fans can make it out to Frisco to cheer on the team! Marlon LeBlanc and his staff are top-notch. I love watching Marlon on the sidelines, getting all animated. He’s the true definition of a leader—a phenomenal coach.
