For those of you who have missed it, ESPN Classic has begun airing ESPN Soccernett Press Pass every Monday and Friday at 7pm. Hosted by Adrian Healey and Derek Rae, and including New England head coach Steve Nicol, Tommy Smyth and Janusz Mchallik, the show is one of the best you will see discussing American soccer.
Last week's episode included interviews with Juergen Klinsmann and Jozy Altidore. Tonight's episode will feature special guest Claudio Reyna. The former U.S. national team captain will discuss topics ranging from the U.S. national team to Landon Donovan's potential move to Bayern Munich.
ESPN has all of the segments out on the web. Here’s the Donovan discussion.

How long has Dr. Evil been doing soccer commentary?

Easy mistake to make, but that’s actually Dr. Evil’s half-brother, Dr. Eejit.
Rob Usry:
Wynalda verses Jim Rome…classic.
I’m trying to watch it, but Reyna is putting me to sleep. Where’s Wynalda when you need him? That would bring some ratings.
“It would be nice to see Ives commentating on ESPN or ESPN2 wouldn’t it?”
I don’t know about commentating on TV broadcasts, but I’ve wondered by Ives isn’t at least a guest from time to time on the ESPN Soccernet podcast, perhaps to talk about MLS.
Yes, it’s about time but can we have an American be the main host?
Re: Landon going to Bayern
I just saw an item on the German website Kicker that mentioned Bayern is interested in Hoffenheim’s Vedad Ibisevic (played NCAA at St Louis University a few years ago). So Bayern may be looking at a lot more than just Donovan in the winter player market.
Fireball. I think Ives already does commentary, if only a little, for RSL radio. Im not totally sure though. It would be nice to see Ives commentating on ESPN or ESPN2 wouldn’t it?
How long before you’re a commentator, Ives?
Seriously, it’s about time. I’m so tired of FSC and their terrible MLS coverage and boring announcers.
How long has Dr. Evil been doing soccer commentary?
Is it 30 minutes or 1 hour show?
Can’t wait for this type of show to hit ESPN or ESPN2.
I’ll be sure to get it on my DVR rotation.
I like it. Nice to have a soccer resource other than FSC. Provides a different and maybe even better perspective.
