The KickAround

Soccer, Sports

The KickAround is simply about talking soccer and all that implies. Andy & Peter bring the Dallas area perspective of the game, but in a way familiar to The Ticket. The show gives sanctuary to the portion of the True Ticket P1 who also loves soccer. No matter if you’re new to the game or a long-time hardcore, don’t worry, we’re just kickin’- it around.
