We are so excited to be back and are celebrating in a very big and cool way. On this episode of The Swan Dive, we are joined by ESPN's Lead Women's Soccer Writer and Equalizer Soccer Founder Jeff Kassouf. Andy and Jeff chat all things Legacy, from coaching to roster building and tactics to performance. He even made a prediction for this weekend's match against the Stars in lieu of us having another fan guest on. We also had Liz from Red Stars Report on to preview this weekend's game against the Chicago Stars. Liz shares some history about the Stars and thoughts about what this weekend's match up may look like. This also means that the predictions are back! Predictions Liz: 2-1 Stars Jeff: 1-0 Legacy Andy: 1-0 Legacy Courtney: 1-0 Legacy Will the opposing team guest continue to leave us all in the dust? Will Jeff, Andy and Courtney all get it correct? Or, and this is honestly probably most likely to happen, will there be a draw and no one gets points? Find out on the recap show next week! As always you can find us at BLFCSwanDive on Bluesky and at BLFCSwanDive@gmail.com. Questions? Comments? Want to be a guest? Let us know! Check out our podcast partners The Blazing Musket for all your New England soccer news. Big thanks to Jeff for taking the time to chat with us and thanks to Liz for sharing her Chicago Stars knowledge with us. Until next time (which may be sooner than you think)! Editors Note: Courtney's exhaustion caught up with her and at one point preferred to Aubrey Kingsbury as Aubrey Bledsoe which was her name before she got married. Please allow \"Kingsbury\" to float into your brain where you hear \"Bledsoe\" and know that we always try to make sure we get the names right but are only human.
