Welp- that makes it a 6-game winless streak for Orange County SC. Not sure what else to say, but the lads have 6 games to turn things around. Times like this I think about Jim Mora's infamous post-game melt down. Man, that was 25 years ago. Some kids listening to this show weren't even alive when that was fresh. What a time to be alive. Tune in and maybe we'll have some thoughts on how to turn things around against an equally anemic Lexington SC side. Please like, share, and subscribe. We'd really like to get to 500 YouTube subscribers, but our biggest problem is OCSC fans just knowing we exist. We can do that with your help. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's been a rough two weeks for the lads, dropping 2 games in a row to two of the best teams in the Eastern Conference. After doing so well on the road for all those weeks, it's a little shocking to see such a change at home. In perspective, OC has only lost 4 games total, but these 2 seem more frustrating than normal. Can the lads turn it around Saturday against FC Tulsa? We have a lot to talk about and boy oh boy do the guys on the show have some things to say. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
