Live your life in a way that you don't ever end up on Marta's shitlist

Sometimes when you're an average athlete and you end your career, you often do much better commentating on games, etc., but in some cases that doesn't happen. #MZ

Not that the Upper Peninsula or Northern Michigan would get a woso club, but if they did…plenty of options for nicknames…

Hate to go all "we have food at home" but it's Vlatko by a mile, & González 2nd.

KC had the best reg. season in NWSL history. A 21-pt gap atop the table is Lyonnes-in-France dominance, & KC's roster is not 21 points better than the rest.

Yanez showed real future CotY potential, but again: future.

I think the Prime Video broadcasts are about the only others that do it—it helps having people on site!

gotta say these nwsl games on espn/abc have great audio of the crowd, it feels like being there. compared with other broadcasts which don't mic the crowd, those games can feel super quiet and dull at times. the sound makes such a huge difference.

Vlatko states that not having Cooper and Chawinga and a half strength Bia makes it difficult to change the game plan.

Sorry, friends, apparently me being rhetorical was lost on some. I know *what* it’s for, yet every interview with someone on it is word salad (maybe have people on the board that understand its purpose.)

Yeah, she had a few “Louisville has nothing to lose” statements throughout as in them losing and not advancing is somehow different than if the Spirit didn’t. I thought it was kinda weird, but shrugged it off.

For @teenvogue.com I wrote about the death of trans athlete Lia Smith and how trans youth kind themselves with central pillars of their lives being constantly ripped away from them because of politics. www.teenvogue.com/story/politi...

Politicizing Transgender Athletes Is Dangerous. Lia Smith Deserved Better.

supporters have been through a lot following this team, and much of it hasn’t been good. now they have a team they’ve deserved, plus players and a coach who understand the importance of this connection, adore it, and do their part to make it special. everyone here will remember this for a long time.

Meanwhile now with Seattle and Louisville out, I am unburdened to simply watch any chaos unfold. #NWSL

A heck of a scene at Audi Field.

Trinity Rodman and Sandy MacIver sprinted straight from the sideline to meet Aubrey Kingsbury in goal. Adrián González stood and hugged Tara McKeown and Gabby Carle.

And now, Esme Morgan is waving a flag in the middle of the supporters’ section.

I think Racing exceeded all expectations this season and made the Spirit (sans Trin) earn that win to move on.

Curious how tomorrow’s games will be! #WASvLOU #NWSL
