The Timbers... finally... won... a game! For the first time since February the pod squad sits down to discuss a Portland Timbers victory. There were emotions. There was VAR intervention. There was Kevin Kelsy making us sneakily fist-pump in the press box. There was much rejoicing.

Sam, Alex, and Luukas broke down the win, from Velde's opener to Kelsy's dramatic winner. Then, the gang dives into some of the discourse online around the win, and what the victory might mean (or not mean) for the future of the Timbers.

Come for the Costco banter, stay for the emotional processing.
