at this point, no matter the resolution, berman & nwsl owners have tarnished the league. we all knew this inflection point was coming and they still failed in the worst, most public way. i would pay to read the group chats of players everywhere discussing a league fighting a star’s $1m/yr contract.
"We expect the contract... and the free agency to be respected."

NWSLPA Executive Director Meghann Burke explains why the multimillion-dollar deal offered to Trinity Rodman by the Washington Spirit should stand.

They really gave this woman an extension 🤦🏾‍♂️
KOH asked berman about the salary cap and she said “the salary cap is *why* we have the 8 seed playing the 2 seed here today” 🙄🙄

Until racism is a deal breaker for folks, this league and this country are screwed. We talk a lot about 2020, but that's because it's evident so few did any real work. Yes, even you. Yes, even your faves. It's why we're here. We told y'all so, but we weren't believed.

It was explained, ad nauseam, what the consequences would be if they voted the way they did. It was not ambiguous in any capacity.

They voted for this monstrosity because they wanted to inflict pain on people they didn’t like.

The tune only changed when the chickens came home to roost.

that jaedyn shaw feature was important not because it’s heartwarming but because u.s. soccer should feel shame that a family had to downsize from a 3br house to 1br apartment so their daughter can play soccer

I can’t believe this has to be said, but: You cannot tell the story of Jackie Robinson—as a ballplayer, serviceman, or human—without discussing our country’s history of racism.

I think one thing that bothers me about political reporting is this kind of framing. Sure, this could potentially hurt their political standings. But it's going to DEVASTATE people's actual lives. abcnews.go.com/Politics/rep...

this recent exodus of some of nwsl’s biggest stars HAS to be a wake up for the league that the cap is pitifully low compared to how women’s football is progressing around the globe, and specifically europe.
