Is it really a rivalry if only one team wins? Vela runs amok as Heineken Rivalry Week kicks off

Heineken Rivalry Week is here! Andrew Wiebe and Bobby Warshaw celebrate by eulogizing the San Jose backline (RIP, Vela was here) then hitting the phones. First up, Max Bretos in Los Angeles to talk about LAFC’s historic success and a looming El Trafico. Mike Conti is next up from Atlanta, talking to a couple “idiots” about Josef Martinez’s troll game and the Orlando City rivalry. Then it’s Patrice Bernier, now an Impact assistant coach, to dissect Montreal’s 24-hour coaching carousel and the Canadian Classique.
