You never know the way a discussion will go in sports radio - like, say, today's segment with BMitch & Steve Czaban that went from replica jersey sales, to 'jersey fouls,' all the way to how World Cup rosters (and other international sports rosters) can be built!
Transcript

00:06billionaire for fanatics we all hate fanatics for the way they've cheapified jerseys and

04:08caught everyone's eye and they're they're the darlings of the tournament because of the
04:12the rowing thing with the drums and this guy erling holland is a sensation somebody tweeted
04:21uh because he looks literally like a nordic viking right off of the pages of some fiction novel
04:27somebody tweeted this is the face of the last thing you see before somebody plunges a battle axe
04:33into your skull if you're living in the 14th century um erling holland is amazing he is also the son
04:41of former world cup norwegian player alf inge holland just like current norwegian player alexander
04:52sorloth is the son of goron sorloth those names sound like they some they're vikings straight vikings
05:00and then christian thorsvelt is the son of eric thorsvelt all also former norwegian
05:10world cup soccer heroes so they've got strong bloodline yeah so that's strong bloodline so
05:18if you got this guy that's just big yeah but he was yeah he's a great tank of a guy
05:24great uh
05:25this great player and then all of a sudden he's been he's been told you're the father
05:29and the kid is minute is he here you're sure you're the father yeah you sure about that
05:36but you know every team every nation builds their national team slightly differently france as you
05:43might have noticed powerhouse that they are has a huge uh amount of african born and north african
05:51players for a variety of reasons immigration number one and secondly their former colonies you know
05:57stretched down into that part of the world so they're able to like claim certain guys
06:01and bapi is one of them they also have this incredible program in france where they identify
06:06talent early on they coach them they scout them they pull them apart they make sure to give them
06:11the best education the best training to make them you know not burn out from soccer they try to keep
06:15it
06:15balanced like they got a whole system right but it's not exactly the most you know legacy handing down
06:23thing like it is with norway we kind of do a combination of the two obviously but hopefully we keep
06:29on
06:29growing as a soccer i don't want to say power yet we've yet to make a world cup final if
06:35we make a
06:35world cup final final in my lifetime then i'll say we're now on the same level as the powers in
06:42the
06:43sport but we're not there yet you gotta whatever whatever gets you going because uh i did not know
06:48i went to barbados to play in a golf tournament and when i show up a bunch of brothers had
06:56a couple
06:56indian people there and things in nature just a couple you know hey people whatever and as i
07:02began to talk i found out i was the only football player there oh really so i'm looking at all
07:07these
07:07brothers i'm like okay what you play hockey like hockey so all these guys and i'm wondering okay we're
07:13in barbados why the hell all these hockey players ice hockey or field ice hockey whoa because they have
07:21to connect with canada most of those kids go right to canada straight to high school and college
07:27kevin weeks oh wow yeah for the islanders yeah yeah yeah from barbados i love it it was it was
07:33the
07:33weirdest thing in the world you know what if you get athletes from other parts of the world that don't
07:37have access to a certain sport you get them somewhere they do and you train them up into it
