Scuffed is a podcast that has been re-capping games and analyzing the U.S. men’s soccer player pool in outrageous detail since 2018.

Adam Belz and Greg Velasquez started the podcast after the U.S. failed to qualify for the World Cup in Russia. Watke and Vince Irvin joined us, and now we have a rotating cast of people including Sanjay Sujanthakumar who join us to chop it up. We also record and publish interviews with players, coaches and soccer journalists. And we have a spin-off podcast called Boots on the Ground, hosted by Tara and Vince, which covers the USWNT.

We are a listener-supported podcast. We get paid by people who subscribe to our Patreon in exchange for ad-free episodes and access to the Discord. We like to think of it mostly as a good-will contribution, and we appreciate the sustenance. Please consider becoming a patron if you are able, at this link.
