  • PawedCast Episode 525: USMNT Talk, LAFC Preview, and More
    Mar 31 2026
    The Lions and Young Lions were both off this weekend with the international break. Because of that, we were focused on the United States Men's National Team as the World Cup continues to creep closer and closer. Unfortunately, the USMNT — despite a great first half — got waffled by Belgium in the second half, losing 5-2. It was an ugly reminder that the U.S. must be its best to compete with top teams from around the world —not for 45 minutes, but for 90-plus. That wasn't the case on Saturday, and the Yanks were punished for it. Portugal on Tuesday night provides another opportunity for growth, but time is running out before the games count on the biggest stage. Is the U.S. ready? Our mailbagbox had questions about lineup changes, hairstyles, and more.

After the mailbagbox, we look ahead to Orlando City's match this weekend at LAFC. As good as Inter Miami, New York City FC, and Nashville have been this year, Saturday's hosts have been either as good or better. That doesn't bode well for a struggling Orlando City side that desperately needs to start scoring goals and keeping them out of its own net. We look back at the series history, compare the two clubs, and offer up our key matchups and score predictions. We are not optimistic about this one, folks.

Here’s how No. 525 went down: 0:15 – The USMNT played a strong opening 40 minutes and then...well oddly enough the game ended that way and the final 50 were never even played! That's how we're choosing to remember it, anyway. 31:43 – Our mailbagbox prevents us from having to preview the LAFC match, but not for long. 52:07 – LAFC hasn't conceded or lost yet. Orlando has done both of those things far more often than any of us would like. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • PawedCast Episode 524: Griezmann Signing Now Official (Bonus Episode)
    Mar 24 2026
    Let's just say we covered our bases this week. When recording Episode 523 of The Mane Land PawedCast Monday night, we knew there was a pretty good chance that Tuesday things would change. As such, we recorded a shorter supplemental episode of the PawedCast to discuss the signing of Atletico Madrid attacking midfielder/forward Antoine Griezmann as a Designated Player, with the legendary French international set to join Orlando City in July. No mailbagbox. No other discussion. Just 20+ minutes of us discussing a historic signing for the club. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • PawedCast Episode 523: Nashville Rewind, Antoine Griezmann, OCB-Miami, and More
    Mar 24 2026
    The Lions tried to back up their first win of the season with another win, but instead what Orlando City backed up the win over Montreal with was a soul-crushing defeat in what might have been the team's worst performance since we were still in the 2010s. The 5-0 loss to Nashville SC could have been even worse. We chose to go the sandwich route and stuck the bad news about the match in between good news. The show started a discussion about the Lions who will represent their countries in this international window. We then spent too many minutes (regardless of how many it was, it was too many) on Orlando City's loss at Nashville. That included looking back at our score predictions and selecting our Man of the Match via the process of elimination. After the match rewind, we turned to Antoine Griezmann's trip to Orlando and a Designated Player signing that could happen today (possibly even before this post goes live). We discuss what Orlando City would be getting and why it doesn't matter that he's an attacking player when the team obviously needs to be better on the defensive end. If nothing else, a Griezmann signing should encourage more people to put things they want to happen out into the universe, because you never know what might be manifested from it. Our mailbagbox had questions about disappointing Orlando City position groups, Apple TV shows, Braian Ojeda's play so far, and more. Remember, if there’s anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the show, just ask us by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC, or hitting us up on Bluesky Social with that same hashtag. After the mailbagbox, we had to dive into Sunday's insane match between OCB and Inter Miami II. We often joke about "Drunk OCB" but perhaps no match for the Young Lions was more drunk than Sunday's. It included OCB conceding twice inside the first five minutes, trailing by three goals in the second half, three misses with the goalkeeper out of the play, two Miami goalkeepers leaving the match with injuries and an outfield player going into the visitors' net, an Olimpico, 13 minutes of stoppage time, and a penalty shootout. It was one of the wildest 4-4 draws we've ever seen, and the Young Lions grabbed a second point in penalties. There's no games for the senior or reserve teams this weekend due to the international break, so enjoy not getting your heart ripped out by your soccer club for a few more days.

Here’s how No. 523 went down: 0:15 – Orlando City got spanked, international Lions, and it sure looks like Antoine Griezmann is signing soon. 31:43 – Our mailbagbox is a helpful distraction from a heavy loss. 52:07 – An incredible OCB game that could have been a lopsided win for either team but instead was a high-scoring draw.
