Summary: As the calendar year comes to a close, it is time to reflect on what was so great about the sport in 2015 and what went so very wrong as world football was anything but uneventful while giving us much to celebrate and even more to learn from as scandal, corruption and indictments became an important part of the narrative. Joining Anto this week is the complete BTP team as Phil Brown takes the world angle in segment one as we open the discussion and talking points including everything from competition winners, beautiful Barcelona and champions from emerging nations, and then to the many issues that seemed to tear apart this sport at its core. Then in segment two, Nico DiBenedetto gives us the view internally from US Soccer where the impact of the investigations and arrests inside the Americas serious became a trend of their own while acknowledging the star-crossed year that was 2015 for US Soccer as the women delivered and the men did not, while not losing sight of some important acknowledgements for trophy winners in MLS.
