It’s the final Stadio before the Euros, so Musa and Ryan look back on PSG and Bayern winning the women’s domestic leagues in France and Germany (06:29), Colón winning their first title (12:36), and the USMNT winning the inaugural CONCACAF Nations League, beating Mexico, and what this means for the U.S. (13:56) Then, it’s a Champions League what-if special, where they discuss what would have happened if Borussia Dortmund had won in 2013 (31:58), if Atlético Madrid had won in 2014 (44:47), and if Arsène Wenger, rather than Hansi Flick, had replaced Niko Kovac at Bayern (51:58).

Tony Romo Is America’s Biggest NFL Fan, and He’s Not Afraid To Show It

As an announcer, Romo plays to the level of the competition. Chiefs-Bills was football ecstasy, which meant he was at his giddy, exuberant best. The problem is that most games aren’t half as fun, and giddiness is no substitute for analysis.
