Have to be impressed with what Denver is building. Ayo Oke and Eva are cornerstone players for the next decade.

God save me from people who brake before going up hills in the snow.
That's too many players. Someone must be going out on loan.
By far my favorite signing of the three. Checks so many boxes.
Can't wait to talk about Andrea on the podcast.
New show should be recording soon.
Absolutely concur with
"The quality and direction of NWSL broadcasts improve" and "Access and information, please". Among others.

Please donate to this vetted GFM to support Renee's wife and child. Not only will they have to worry about funeral expenses, but as the most powerful people in the country lie about her murder, her family will also probably face some legal costs.

When I get asked why North American women, Black women, women of color arenβt coaching in the NWSL, Iβm just going to send them this quote.
The good olβ boys network in soccer is alive & well in πΊπΈ. That Chris Long is calling Jesse Marsch βlooking for a coachβ is a symptom of a systemic problem.
Are the NY Sirens..... Good?!
Not great. Not bad. But actually... Good?

#BookSky Book 2 of 5 favorites of the year
One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig
Gothic Fantasy / Romantasy
Theme: Sacrifice & the cost of magic
A near perfect fantasy novel.
Gotham: 24/26 spots filled.
2 players on loan (Stella & Princess).
2 players on SEI (Tierna and Taryn).
1 open international spot.
Quiet off season for once.
Even the best teams need to evolve. Perhaps they see Tierna returning as that move. There is still room for one big move with HIP.
Top 5 books I've read in 2025

π Genre: Art-world Mystery / Dark Academia
π¨ Theme: Female legacy & buried family secrets

The big problem is that this new rule will undoubtedly only favor 5 teams with market pull.
An increase in salary cap favors all teams.
How do teams like Louisville or Utah compete if they can't land a "HIP" player of the same caliber?
NWSL took a dumb MLS roster rule and made it even dumber.
However, Gotham may have the means to sign Cat Macario now.
Tree is up. For now.
I'm driving all the way to Fulton Hall. See y'all there!
Not even close.
Gotham was a penalty shootout away from 3 straight championship appearances.
Considering where this franchise came from is wild.
Credit to Yael.
District v. Empire IV, for an NWSL Championship
Let's go!!!!
Still is. Incredible achievement.
Even though National Mentoring Day was yesterday, I want to celebrate that I've been a Big Brother/Sister with Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Lehigh Valley for 3 amazing years! π€© It's been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. #MentoringMatters #BBBSLV
Love Natasha Cloud.
Bev Yanez is my #NWSL coach of the year. It's not even close.
Sigh. Jacksonville ties the game with a half minute to go.
Final 3-3. Both teams I'm sure feel let down.
Brooklyn goes ahead in the 90th!
4 minutes to see if they can complete the comeback.
