Red Bull Rant 268: The World Derp

June 14, 2018 00:00 - 1 hour - 34.3 MB

4 points off of a road and home game isn’t bad. We just wish the performances were a little better. The New York Red Bulls now move on to face the Philadelphia Union in the US Open Cup round of 16 while the 2018 World Cup starts up. Asbury Park FC is hosting some fun World Cup events, and founder Shawn Francis is on to talk to us about it.

Red Bull Rant 267: Hurts Donut

June 07, 2018 00:00 - 1 hour - 27.9 MB

How do you follow up a disappointing 0-0 draw? With a 2-1 loss to the New England Revolution of course. Oh, but it’s OK, the New York Red Bulls followed that up with a 4-0 drubbing of New York City FC...again. Can they keep it going against a Columbus Crew SC side that went into extra time in their mid-week US Open Cup match, and against a struggling Seattle Sounders?

May 31, 2018 00:00 - 45 minutes - 20.6 MB

After a disappointing 0-0 draw at home to the Philadelphia Union, can the New York Red Bulls bounce back with a road win against the New England Revolution and a Open Cup win over New York City FC?

May 30, 2018 00:00 - 44 minutes - 20.4 MB

May 2018 was a great month for the New York Red Bulls. 3 Wins and 1 Draw, an undefeated month and momentum heading into the summer.

May 24, 2018 00:00 - 1 hour - 27.9 MB

Atlanta wasn’t United when the New York Red Bulls came into town and left with a very impressive 3-1 victory. Can they keep the winning streak going when they host the Philadelphia Union?

Red Bull Rant 262: Three Point Stance

May 02, 2018 00:00 - 53 minutes - 24.6 MB

After a 2-1 loss to the Chiago Fire, the New York Red Bulls rebound to a 3-2 win over the LA Galaxy? What the hell is up with this team? This makes no sense. The upcoming match against New York City FC will be a good test though to see where this team is heading. After the NYC FC match, the boys are travelling down to New Brunswick to stand with Cloud 9 in supporting Sky Blue FC. Will you join them?

Red Bull Rant 261: Bearhug

April 25, 2018 00:00 - 50 minutes - 23.2 MB

How do the New York Red Bulls go from beating Montreal 3-1 to losing to Chicago 2-1? It’s truly baffling. The Red Bulls will have to turn it around though as they travel to LA to take on a Galaxy team who has some new star that everyone is talking about.

April 19, 2018 00:00 - 32 minutes - 15.1 MB

Truman is out this week but it’s OK, because the New York Red Bulls won, so we don’t need to bring the anger. A 3-1 win over Montreal as a rebound from CCL failure? Yes please.

April 11, 2018 00:00 - 1 hour - 34.9 MB

Well, the New York Red Bulls are officially out of the CONCACAF Champions League after a 0-0 draw leaves then losing 1-0 on aggregate. Time now to turn into MLS full steam as the Red Bulls have to turn around and host the Montreal Impact this weekend.

Red Bull Rant 258: Cross-Arm Breaker

April 05, 2018 00:00 - 55 minutes - 25.6 MB

The New York Red Bulls did not get very lucky this week. They dropped a 4-3 result on the road to Orlando City SC and followed that up with a 1-0 loss on the road to CD Guadalajara in Champions League. Can the Red Bulls turn it around next week and advance to the Champions League final?

Red Bull Rant 257: The Razor’s Edge

March 28, 2018 00:00 - 1 hour - 33.7 MB

The New York Red Bulls rebounded from their first loss with a 3-0 drubbing of Minnesota United. Can they keep the momentum going when they travel down to Orlando City and take on old teammate Sachs Kljestan? Will the mojo train continue into the semifinals of the CONCACAF Champions League when the Red Bulls travel to CD Guadalajara? The boys also have a special guest segment this week as they talk to Jen Muller of the Sky Blue FC supporter group Cloud 9. All this and more on this week’s Red ...

Red Bull Rant 256: Rude Awakening

March 22, 2018 00:00 - 47 minutes - 21.6 MB

The New York Red Bulls dropped a 1-0 result against Real Salt Lake but is it really a big deal when juggling Champions League? We’ll find out when the Red Bulls host Minnesota United. NYRB II had a good start to the season and Sky Blue FC will be starting up soon. Some RBNY games got moved due to CCL and Zlatan Ibrahimović is coming to the LA Galaxy and MLS.

Red Bull Rant 255: Sleeper Hold

March 15, 2018 00:00 - 1 hour - 29.1 MB

The New York Red Bulls pulled off an amazing 4-0 win over the Portland Timbers. They beat that though with a historical 3-1 (5-1 on aggregate) win over Club Tijuana to advance to the CONCACAF Champions League Semifinals. Can they keep the momentum up with they travel to take on former Metro/Red Bull Mike Petke’s Real Salt Lake side?

Red Bull Rant 254: Perfect-Plex

March 08, 2018 00:00 - 50 minutes - 23.3 MB

The New York Red Bulls won yet another match in CONCACAF Champions League, this time against Club Tijuana. On the Road. In Mexico. By two goals. This is some weird stuff going on. Hopefully the Red Bulls can keep it going in the home match and advance to the Semi-finals. However, the Red Bulls have the Portland Timbers in their MLS Season & Home Opener. Welcome to Kaku Day.

Red Bull Rant 253: Cross Face Chicken Wing

March 04, 2018 00:00 - 55 minutes - 25.5 MB

The New York Red Bulls actually advanced in the CONCACAF Champions League and are now in the Quarterfinals. They beat CD Olympia 3-1 on aggregate and now will face off against Club Tijuana on March 6th and 13th. Felipe Martins has been traded away to the Vancouver Whitecaps along with some Targeted Allocation Money and an International Slot in exchange for center back Tim Parker. Moroco is somehow in the running ahead of the US for a World Cup. DC United gets a huge end of year schedule advan...

Red Bull Rant 252: Million Dollar Dream

February 13, 2018 00:00 - 46 minutes - 21.4 MB

The USSF has a new president, but who really cares? Sacha Kljestan said some stuff about his time with RBNY, was he right? The RBNY preseason seems to be off to a good start, can they keep that rolling into the CONCACAF Champions League? Who is your new RBNY Team Captain?

Red Bull Rant 251: Pre-Mode

January 25, 2018 00:00 - 58 minutes - 26.6 MB

It’s pre-season for the New York Red Bulls, which means it’s pre-season for us also. That doesn’t mean we are void of topics though. Sacha Kljestan is gone after one year as captain and is off to Orlando City. The Red Bulls have five new draft picks who will probably play in USL. There are MULTIPLE transfer sagas following the Red Bulls this offseason. The pre-season schedule is out with a return to Arizona that comes right as competitive games start in CONCACAF. NYRB II is affected by some u...

Red Bull Rant 250: Red Bull Rant: The Movie

November 30, 2017 00:00 - 1 hour - 31.5 MB

It’s time for the 2017 year in review for the New York Red Bulls. What grade would you give the Red Bulls this year? Who is your Player of the Year? Match of the Year? What questions did our readers provide via twitter to make the show go off the rails? What do the Red Bulls need to do to improve for 2018? Is there anything else coming up in 2018 that the Red Bulls need to worry about? What other stupid stuff is happening around the league? Musical Credits: Opening: Happy Rock - http://www.b...

Red Bull Rant 248: In the Presence of Mine Enemies

November 02, 2017 00:00 - 51 minutes - 23.5 MB

How did the New York Red Bulls follow up their thumping of the Chicago Fire? By losing to the top of MLS Toronto FC in Leg 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals 2-1. Giving Toronto a lead is tough enough, but allowing them to have 2 away goals just makes things worse. Can the Red Bulls make up the difference in the second leg at Toronto? At least the Red Bulls aren’t in the same boat as NYC FC, who is down 4-1 and has to make up the goal difference at home. The Western Conference was boring...

Red Bull Rant 247: There's No Place Like Bridgeview

October 27, 2017 17:14 - 23 minutes - 335 MB

Jay is once again away at the cupcake convention while Truman and Pat take a look back at the 4-0 thrashing of Chicago, look ahead to the match against Toronto FC, and deliver an abbreviated dumping ground since they've been doing so many episodes of late. Pat forgets to thank Will Martin and more.

Red Bull Rant 246: Chaos in the Stadium of Lost Souls

October 23, 2017 18:22 - 25 minutes - 47.6 MB

With Jason flying off to a big bakery convention, Pat and Truman do a little talky talk about the season finale win in RFK over hated DC United. Plenty to like on the field, and plenty to dislike off of it in the seats. Then they discuss the upcoming one and done playoff game in Chicago, make some predictions, then set up the rest of the week’s playoff schedule. All of that plus a short Dumping Ground, and a non-surprising team makes the Terrible Team of the Week. Join them, will you not?

Red Bull Rant 245: Grey Hairs and Growing Pains

October 19, 2017 00:00 - 59 minutes - 27.4 MB

Red Bull Rant 245: Grey Hairs and Growing Pains When Atlanta United visited the New York Red Bulls, the biggest question was...would Own Goal be out for revenge? Thankfully that was not the case, but at the same time, no one scored in could be ironically a good 0-0 draw for the Red Bulls. They really had no chance of getting a home wild card game, so why not stay at #6 in the East? It’s OK though, the Red Bulls can still play spoiler, if you want to call it that, against last place D.C. Uni...

Red Bull Rant 244: The Pyramid of Darkness

October 12, 2017 00:00 - 1 hour - 31.1 MB

The New York Red Bulls finally broke their winning streak that dated back to August! They did it! They made the playoffs! They now have two weeks to get the mojo fully going heading into the wild card round and hope to make a big run for MLS Cup. On another high note, the United States’ Men’s Team made the 2018 Worl...oh wait, the didn’t make the World Cup. At least they made the playof...no, they didn’t make the playoff series with Australia. I guess they are out of the World Cup for the fi...

Red Bull Rant 243: The Wrong Stuff

October 05, 2017 00:00 - 30 minutes - 13.9 MB

It’s hard to be mad at the Red Bulls 4-2 loss in Toronto when we all saw it coming, but Pat and Truman do their best to get their gripe on. More important than that loss is having two home games coming up, with the team just needing a win to get into the playoffs. Can they do it? You get the hosts’ predictions, plus dive into USMNT talk, as well as a little Sky Blue season finale action. Plus the Terrible Team of the Week rears its ugly head! Come give a listen, won’t you? Musical Credits: O...

Red Bull Rant 242: 3 Goals to Darkness, PART II

September 28, 2017 00:00 - 31 minutes - 20.8 MB

When you give up 6 goals in two games, including the heart wrenching own goal in the final moments against hated D.C. United, there’s not much happy news to talk about. But that’s why Pat and Truman are here to vent on two hugely disappointing games for the New York Red Bulls, one on the road to Columbus Crew SC, and one at home vs the Scum. They try to find where the fault is at. Jesse, backline woes, scoring, it all comes under fire. They then preview the upcoming match against soon to be S...

Red Bull Rant 241: The Palace of Doom

September 21, 2017 00:00 - 56 minutes - 26.1 MB

Scoreless draws to the Philadelphia Union, losing in the US Open Cup final to Sporting KC, so many wonderful things to talk about when it comes to the New York Red Bulls. The guys discuss both disappointments, and read your tweets, which obviously were not filled with joy. After they finish venting their rage, they predict results for Saturday’s game in Cowtown against the Columbus Crew, as well as Wednesday’s home match against DC. Plus more dumping ground ramblings, and a terrible team of t...

Red Bull Rant 240: In the Fire’s Pit

September 14, 2017 00:00 - 40 minutes - 18.7 MB

Another road game, another game without a win, but at least the New York Red Bulls did not flat out lose to the Chicago Fire. It was a boring game though, so we won’t talk about it took much. Instead, we’ll look ahead to what should be a win (and is a must-win) game against the visiting Philadelphia Union. The Red Bulls will then travel to take on Sporting Kansas City in the Final of the 2017 US Open Cup. Can the Red Bulls finally win a knockout tournament or will a travelling Jason be sent h...

Red Bull Rant 239: Once Upon a Draw

September 07, 2017 00:00 - 44 minutes - 20.5 MB

A FC Dallas team who hasn’t won a game in their last seven? Getting to be up a man with over half of the game left to go? Scoring a goal right before halftime? All of that should lead to an easy win for the New York Red Bulls right? Well, no, this is the Red Bulls we are talking about. Blowing two leads in the same game to a ten man side seems to be par for the course somehow. Maybe the United States had a better time of...oh wait, no, they didn’t. Hopefully the Red Bulls can rebound when the...

Red Bull Rant 238: Draw in the Devil’s Cauldron

August 31, 2017 00:00 - 40 minutes - 23.1 MB

What do the New York Red Bulls do with over 60% possession and over 20 shots on goal, at home? They end the game in a 1-1 draw. It’s a disappointing way to end the 2017 Hudson River Derby, but at least they got the US Open Cup win right? The Red Bulls now have to turn their attention to a busy September, which includes a 5 game, 13 day stretch, including the US Open Cup final. Currently sitting at 5th in the East, can the Red Bulls possibly make a run at a top two finish, or at the very leas...

Red Bull Rant 237: The Greenhouse Effect

August 24, 2017 00:00 - 34 minutes - 15.9 MB

The second string wasn’t as hot as the starters, but that’s OK. No one expected a lot out of a team that had to play 120 minutes on Tuesday in Cincinnati and then another 90 in Portland on Friday. A 2-0 loss to the Portland Timbers in that situation is not unexpected. The team must now refocus its energy on their last regular season matchup against New York City FC. Can the New York Red Bulls pull out a home victory under the Friday Night Lights and work towards a better playoff position? Can...

Red Bull Rant 236: Battle for the Cup of Gold

August 17, 2017 00:00 - 49 minutes - 22.8 MB

What a turnaround after that terrible NYC FC match. The New York Red Bulls hosted Orlando City in a game that started ugly, ended ugly, but was good enough in the middle for a 3-1 home win. There was a weird moment between Auerillin Collin and Kaka, but thankfully the Red Bulls didn’t have to deal with the fallout of it. After the win, they travelled to take on FC Cincinnati in the US Open Cup Semifinals, and it was almost a very bad night, but thankfully they pulled something out of the fire...

Red Bull Rant 235: The Traitor, Part One

August 10, 2017 00:00 - 57 minutes - 48.2 MB

Well that was something. Way to blow a lead when you are dominating a game New York Red Bulls. Thankfully Sal Zizzo won’t be around in the next game to screw things up royally again. Jason, Pay, and Truman talk the thing that was the NYC FC match. They also talk the upcoming game against Orlando City. Can the boys in white get their mojo back heading into the US Open Cup Semifinals and avoid losing to FC Cincinnati? Can Bradley Wright-Phillips keep up his scoring streak with Royer out? This a...

Red Bull Rant 232: Royer Holiday

August 03, 2017 00:00 - 43 minutes - 19.8 MB

Jason is back from the bakery, but Truman is out getting the band back together. It’s a shame because the New York Red Bulls have been rocking and rolling recently. Another good win, this time, 4-0 over the visiting Montreal Impact. The Red Bulls are on a good streak heading into Yankee Stadium and a matchup against New York City FC. Can the Red Bulls get a measure of revenge for a loss to NYC FC earlier in the season? We’ll find out in the third installment of the 2017 Hudson River Derby. M...

Red Bull Rant 233: Glamour Goals

July 27, 2017 00:00 - 39 minutes - 17.9 MB

Another game, another convincing win for the Red Bulls, who find themselves winners of 5 games in a row in all competitions. With Jay away, Pat and Truman talk about their big 3-0 road win in Minnesota, find difficulty in disliking anything, but having plenty to be happy about. Then they go over the USMNT’s Gold Cup victory, and how Kenmar Lawrence is just a wonderful guy. In the dumping ground, talk of player moves, MLS shady dealings, and Sky Blue’s insane near comeback. Truman gives his te...

Red Bull Rant 232: Kljestan Quakes

July 20, 2017 00:00 - 42 minutes - 19.6 MB

Who knew that the New York Red Bulls could score more than two goals during the run of play in a single game? I mean, it only took until the middle of July for it to happen. That was 18 MLS Games, 3 US Open Cup, and 2 Champions League games for those keeping score at home. At least it looks like the offense has picked up when games start mattering just a bit more when playoff position matters. The United States Men’s National Team also showed they can still score, and incite some light viole...

Red Bull Rant 231: The Invaders

July 16, 2017 00:00 - 52 minutes - 43.2 MB

What’s better than winning on the road against the New England Revolution? Doing it twice in a month, and one of them being in the US Open Cup. The New York Red Bulls now head to the USOC Semi-finals where they will face either Miami FC or FC Cincinnati and hope not to embarrass themselves against a non-MLS team. In the meantime, the Red Bulls have a MLS match coming up against the San Jose Earthquakes. Will the Red Bulls be able to pack the house on a Wednesday night? No, because they never...

Red Bull Rant 230: 3 Goals to Darkness

July 06, 2017 00:00 - 30 minutes - 14.2 MB

Well would you believe it if the Red Bulls fought their way from down a goal two times, scored 3 goals, while playing in Foxboro? We didn’t either! But it happened, and with Jay back at the Bakery, it’s up to Pat and Truman to talk about Goal-zalo Veron stealing the win, technical difficulties, and bad defending. Then they wonder if the team can beat the Revs again at Harvard in the Open Cup. Plus there’s a little Gold Cup to mention, Sky Blue winning, Brandon Allen moving(?) and the usual ra...

Red Bull Rant 229: Not a Goal of a Chance

June 29, 2017 00:00 - 51 minutes - 23.4 MB

So, about Red Bull Arena being a fortress. So much for that right? A 2-0 loss to New York City is bad. A 2-0 loss where you don’t look competitive and only record one shot on goal? That’s much, much, much, much, much, (how many more times do I need to say it?) much worse. Bradley Wright-Phillips did not do much because he wasn’t given much. Sacha Kljestan didn’t do much because why should he? Granted, no one else, aside from Luis Robles, did much against NYC FC. The same goes for the Philadel...

Red Bull Rant 228: Red Card’s Glare

June 22, 2017 00:00 - 20 minutes - 9.32 MB

Jason is back and so is the idea of the New York Red Bulls winning on the road. The Red Bulls went down to Chester, PA and defeated a 10-men Philadelphia Union in a hot and humid affair. But wait, was that Jesse Marsch leaving early? It’s not like he had to beat the traffic, so why was he leaving? Oh, he’s off to get his UEFA coaching license? So that means he’s leaving New York at some point right? That will have to wait for now though as the Red Bulls have to turn around and host New York C...

Red Bull Rant 227: A Stake in the Smurfs Heart

June 15, 2017 00:00 - 46 minutes - 21.5 MB

The New York Red Bulls took on New York City FC in the 4th round of the 2017 US Open Cup. Why? That’s because the New York Cosmos didn’t want that honor this year. The Red Bulls kept tradition alive though when they dispatched NYC FC from the Cup, their third straight exit in the 4th round. Now it’s up to the Red Bulls to travel to Philadelphia, sorry, Chester, to avenge a previous 3-0 loss to the struggling Union. Can the Red Bulls change their road woes into road wins (or at least road draw...

Red Bull Rant 226: Battle on the Roof of the World

June 09, 2017 02:17 - 34 minutes - 62.4 MB

Red Bull Rant 226: Battle on the Roof of the World: Jason is off baking cookies again, so it’s up to Pat and Truman to grumble over another away loss. So much dislike, very little to like about the 1-0 defeat against the Footie Habs, but the guys get through it. Then they talk about the upcoming US Open Cup home game against Smurf City FC. A little bit of USMNT, Sky Blue, Goldy going away, amazing Millwall fan, and conspiracy theories round out the show, followed up by Truman’s Terrible Team ...

Red Bull Rant 225: Second Goal Emotions

June 02, 2017 00:51 - 24 minutes - 44.2 MB

Red Bull Rant 225: 2nd Goal Emotions With Jay busy baking vegan cakes, Pat and Truman roll as a duo to talk about the Red Bulls getting off the winless schneid with a 2-1 victory against the Revs. Lots to like, a few things to dislike, and we heap praise on Mr. BWP.
