A wall in the backline. A leader across the board. She’s your 2025 Defender of the Year.

Trinity Rodman killing it on the blue carpet tonight! #NWSL

What an odd roster. Ten defenders, but no Tara McKeon. Wiesner has been remarkable this fall, but I did not expect her to get the call over Sharples. Six forwards, including Olivia Moultrie.
The midfield is the only one that makes sense to me.

Trinity Rodman's contract expires this offseason. Reportedly, negotiations with the NWSL are at a stalemate. How it's resolved will shed light on Jessica Berman's vision for the league.
Trinity Rodman’s contract saga will reveal the future that NWSL leadership want
A day that ended with Washington Spirit fans zipping across the skies like meteors began, contrastingly, with frustration-induced eye rolls. The Athletic’s Tom Bogert broke news about the status of Trinity Rodman’s contract negotiations, and it was news most feared. Rodman, a global superstar in talent, name recognition and personality, is out of contract this offseason and in line to earn a weightier wage than current NWSL salary cap limits allow.

Just a reminder… Berman is lying through her teeth when she says the league can’t do anything to keep Trin.

Has anyone ever won the NWSL Championship as both a forward and a centerback? Or will Tara be the first?

#NWSL Are there any rules about fans starting a kickstarter to tip a player, therefore increasing her earnings without surpassing your antiquated salary cap?

Ya'll, it's been a shit year - physically, mentally, and within my communities. Being at #rowdyaudi and watching Spirit win today refilled my soul with some of the light it had lost. I know it's just sports, but sometimes sports are the little joy you need. #thatsthespirit Now let's finish the job.

More postgame celebrations include a person screaming their praise for @heyspirits.bsky.social into the press box, and Hal Hershfelt getting a mic to address the crowd exactly how you'd expect her to

If Michele can work with the NWSL to keep Trin in DC then I will buy as much neon yellow as she wants me to.

• Loss of Gabby Carle is a blow. A real bummer amid a breakout season
• Trinity Rodman (questionable) makes sense. Given the Year It Has Been, no need to rush her back
• Tara McKeown, Woman of Steel
• Deb Abiodun back is Capital-H Huge for a game that feels like it’ll be decided in the midfield

Absolutely love a Spirit playoff win in the sun in November. Never change, #rowdyaudi. I expect similar weather next week.
Anybody in Club seating have a teaspoon of sunscreen to offer a quickly crisping Spirit fan?

You can’t ask Metayer to mark both Borges and Flint on a corner. She’s good, but she’s not a superhero.
