Customer Reviews
Always worth a listen
A great listen, even for non-Portland supporters. Timbers fans should be thrilled to have such a podcast around, one that breaks down every angle of their beloved club and provides superb analysis down to the most minute detail.
Great show!
This show is my first listen for Timbers analysis!
Bourgeois Indulgence
Mao and Nevets were one of the hippest couples in Portland. With soultress Sabrina Miller's lovely radio voice Mao's Football Show made for a delightful menage a' trois. But then Mao and Nevets broke up and PDX mourned. Hope was renewed when Mao rebounded with Kelly. Their partnership doesn't have the same exotic allure as Mao-Nevets, but listeners will get the feeling that Mao and Kelly will try hard to make it work for their TA children.
