On today's part of my take, presented by DraftKings, we've got a twofer. We're live from Tahoe Week, and it's been an awesome day. We've got... The Kachuk brothers. Awesome interview with them. Matthew and Brady now teammates with the Florida Panthers. We're going to talk also some World Cup. We have Taylor Twelman on to talk about U.S. men's national team, which we also do at the start of the show. Hank is back after a long journey. He finally got here. And Max. And Max. Well, we were spent all day with Max yesterday, but you're back. So, great, great episode coming, and it's brought to you by our friends at Chevy. Chill Week is here. You know what that means. No schedules, no plans, just more of the good stuff.
Chevy Silverado makes that possible. There's a reason Chevy's called the heartbeat of America, and the Silverado keeps that heartbeat strong. These trucks work hard, so you can chill harder, whether that's getting out of town, heading to the lake, or just not turning around when you probably should. It's got the capability, the space, and the muscle. Everything you need for a proper summer. Coolers, gear, whatever your version of chill looks like. Because at the end of the day, Silverado helps you tackle more of what you love. And let's be honest, you've earned the summer. Now it's time to go get it. So roll the windows down, turn the music up, and just listen. That's the heartbeat of America. That's today's Chevrolet.
Head over to Chevy.com to learn more today. Okay, let's go.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Welcome to part of my take presented by DraftKings. The crown is yours. Today is Wednesday, July 8th, and we suck at soccer yet again. It was an ass kicking. There's no candy coat in this one. We got our asses kicked. That was the worst performance from the U.S. that I've seen in years. Just completely lackluster from the start. So much blame to go around. Tim Rehm, friend of the program, good guy, over the hill, turned into soccer Sean Bradley before our very eyes. Got dunked on twice. Just overall, just sluggish. What about the goalie? That was the most embarrassing goal that I've ever seen possible. He did the young way coup. He just couldn't kick. He hit the ground. And that was a knock against Matt Turner, too.
His play with his feet is known for being pretty poor. So we thought maybe with Matt Freeze, he might be better at that. Absolutely choked that one. And then Tim Rehm decided to just jump out of the way of the ball when they shot it at the net. Really, really bad. 4-1, I would say, doesn't even really do it justice. I would say in the PFT expected goals category, I had Belgium 6, US 0.5. And we had a goal. Malik Tillman may be the only guy that showed up yesterday and seemed like he was playing with his hair on fire. Still love that guy. So much blame to go around. Christian Pulisic. The long-anointed Captain America, future face of this league for American soccer, absolute no-show of a game. I would say worse than a no-show of a game.
And then he checks himself out, just looks lackluster, looks like he doesn't care at all, had the most turnovers on the field of anybody that played. Just really, really, really bad. As disappointing as I've ever seen, as disappointed as I've ever been in U.S. soccer after this game, losing, getting our ass kicked by Netherlands in the last World Cup. We at least played harder.
