No answers were provided to the burning questions raised last episode, but the general consensus is that the Las Vegas match was still a step in the right direction.

A rundown of the questions still to be answered about this year’s Oakland Roots side. Peter gets briefly existential.

Season preview time! A discussion of the big moves this Roots’ offseason, and of our predictions for the coming season.

Jon and Peter have THOUGHTS about Roots’ 5-0 loss in the regular season finale. And we all agree that Roots’ best chance against Colorado Springs is to keep it a tight, low-scoring affair. Ya gotta believe.

Sandwiched around a truly unexpected detour regarding the New York Jets, we discuss whether there is any reason for optimism left this season (views differ), and whether we’ve seen enough to start thinking about what changes should be made next season, even if the Roots make the ‘yoffs (views do not differ).

Aaron, Jack, Jon, and Schrodinger’s Bloom ask where its all gone wrong, what needs to be fixed, and discuss reasons to be optimistic about the end of the season.

We lament the recent loss of defensive stability, and wonder why the Roots refuse to just hoof-and-hope, but also sing the praises of new man Sinisterra. Peter pods in hushed tones so as not to wake his new born.
