  • FINALLY My Leagues is Being Covered!

    Been a long time listener, and fan, of Protagonist and all the different shows from the Protagonist Weekly, USL2, Knights, even listened to the TV Show/Movie reviews through the pandemic!

    But now with One League Under the C (amazing title obviously) one of my favorite podcasts is covering the local team/league we follow! Match made in heaven! Thanks guys!

  • Level headed, no homer-ism talk on lower league soccer

    It’s easy to start a podcast about something you’re passionate about. However it’s difficult to make that topic interesting or come off as neutral, especially when you want the topic at hand to succeed. The guys at Protagonist do care about lower league soccer in the United States but are able to call out the good from the bad. Their interviews are well researched and the guests are almost always going to leave expelling far more than any listener could have imagined. A great listen.

  • Lower league level soccer, premier league level banter

    I don’t give a rip about nisa and actually think the league should lose its ussf sanctioning due to its numerous blunders and terrible leadership. These guys however, have such good chemistry and passion for the league and lower league soccer in general, that I will tune into each and every episode and have a heck of a good time doing it. Keep up the great work guys. Also love the USL 2 coverage and that is what I am most looking forward to listening to this upcoming season. Cheers!

  • Love the Show!

    I look forward to Knights Who Say NISA every time it comes out! I think you add so much to the league and bring legitimacy and excitement to those of us that follow the league. Long live Dan, Dan, and John Howard-Fusco! We are the knights who say Ni!

Q: Why did you select this match as far as being America's Greatest?
I think it's foundational for me in a lot of different ways, including that being a soccer fan oftentimes means waking up at 3 a.m. or 5 a.m. to watch the team that you support.
