All of the discussion in and around MLS this week has been about the floated new playoff format MLS is kicking around for 2027/28. Are you ready for a 20 team playoff field that puts your team on the Aussie Rules Ladder!? The confusing format might actually be a huge win for the league. In other news GMs are getting poached and previously banned GMs are getting new jobs. Then it's what to watch this weekend with a pick at the top of the table, and the very, very bottom.

On this Episode of The World's GAM, it's full of overreactions to the weekend's results! Why isn't anyone talking about Houston and should we be more worried about Vancouver? MLS is looking into expanding the roster rules and making them easier, or harder, to understand? What would it look like? Then it's a yearly tradition: why do we have an All-Star game? And finally a conversation with Zach Blandford who was Mic'd Up for Hell is Real. The weird online backlash, fee-fees, and more. Then finally it's a look at the full weekend slate of matches and picking out a few of our top picks.
