BlazerCon 2015 - Men in Blazers Soccer Fest Rocks Brooklyn

Blazer Con 2015 November 13-14, 2015 - Joel Baral
I did it - got my tickets and planned my trip. Pies, Guiness, Pregnant Chelsea Fans, Soccer Commissioners and Fans Dressed as Marouane Fellaini with a Jack Wilshire doll eating his chest. Part soccer trade show, part Brooklyn soccer pub on a Saturday morning, part international sportfest at a convention center. Our favorite funny soccer loving podcasting brits put on quite a party and I was first in line. Literally. BlazerCon 2015 was the live manifestation of the cult that has grown up around hosts Michael Davies (Davo) Roger Bennett (Rog) MenInBlazers - Podcast, now TV show that this year moved onto NBCSN. It's on at 10pm on Tuesdays except when moved for hockey or rowing, or whatever non-soccer sports runs over. These two bald not very good looking gents wear blazers talk about soccer - always positive, well informed, passionate. They focus on the big and small and so did BlazerCon.
