This week on 3rd Degree the Podcast, your hosts - Peter Welpton and Buzz Carrick (Dan Crooke is on assignment) - welcome back guest Arman Kafai to talk all things FC Dallas. The Loons' game was bad, but was it any worse than the other two home games they lost in the last couple of weeks? Is this team and staff starting to look defeated? And what do they do with LAFC up next? Plus, Arman has a TED Talk about rebuilding in MLS and why it's a bad idea.

North Texas SC won, and Sam Sarver got the call-up.

Texoma FC is now unbeaten in 8. This may be the greatest turnaround of all time.

And McKinney Chupacabras drew 20,000 over their short USL-2 season. That's amazing.

This week on 3rd Degree the Podcast, your hosts - Peter Welpton, Dan Crooke, and Buzz Carrick - have the biggest pile of DFW soccer news to talk about, ever.

Starting with two FC Dallas losses at home of different stripes and pain. Questions have to be asked about where this thing is headed. FCD also sold Antonio Carrera and let Show Cafumana walk. And on top of that, the MLSPA salary drop happened. Now, Los Toros face the Loons! (As does North Texas SC).

Dallas Trinity fired their coach, had their President win a league award, and then dumped 9 players.

Texoma hasn't lost in two months, till they got rid of an owner and then faced a USL-C team in the USL Cup.

Atletico Dallas had a sweet kit drop and got their training ground approved.

And the McKinney Chupacabras are getting a training ground upgrade!

No FC Dallas results to talk about on this week's 3rd Degree the Podcast, but your hosts - Peter Welpton, Dan Crooke, and Buzz Carrick - have two FC Dallas games to look forward to. There was a lot of other DFW soccer stuff to talk about, too.

Like some images of the Farrington Field reno involving the forthcoming Fort Worth USL team leaked on YouTube.

Dallas Trinity is playing Club America, and the Super League second season kicks off in two months.

Don't look now, but Texoma FC is unbeaten in 6!

North Texas SC continues its up-and-down form.

And most importantly, the debut of the Wigglebutt SC merch.
