#585: ESPN legend Bob Ley joins the pod

Ley ran the PA system for the Cosmos in the late 1970s, was one
of the earliest anchors for Sportscenter, hosted several World
Cups on television and has been one of American soccer's great
advocates. He sat down with Belz and talked about what he tells
college kids about the future of sports journalism, the state of
the USMNT, the potential impact of the 2026 World Cup, what
pro/rel might mean for USL, and much more.
