One of the things that bothers me about transphobia as a word - see also islamophobia etc. - is that, no, no it's not a *phobia* it's not arachnophobia or pyrophobia or things that actually relate to someone being scared, it's hatred and bigotry that is often finessed into a grift.
From @karleighchardonnay.bsky.social at Outsports:

Jennifer Sey, who said the NWSL had “several males” has issued a $10,000 bounty to the next player to “speak out like Elizabeth Eddy.” An anonymous donor added $5000. Clay Travis said he’d double it.

NEAT.

I was writing an editorial this week on how the NWSL playoffs are broken (but I got busy and didn't finish by the weekend).

I won't publish it now because it'll read like sour grapes. Short version: it should be 6 teams, KC and WSH should have byes.

Reward the regular season. #KCBaby #NWSL

I'm seeing a lot of Vlatko hate today. The KC Current had the best regular season in the history of the league

Ultimately American sports are judged by playoffs. He'll learn from this, but all 3 of your star forwards getting hurt in the last 2 meaningless games is rough. #KCBaby

The ref needs to take control. Gia Corley violently undercuts Lo, when she's got no chance at the ball. Common foul given.. #KCBaby #KCvSD

Went to go start my annual flu dashboard and thought I just couldn't find the data. Nope. They're not doing it.
Another reason to get your flu shot:

The CDC Fluview map of influenza and ILI (influenza like illness) is normally updated weekly. It has not been changed since September 20.

Patient: Help me doctor I'm really sick!
Me: Ok
Patient: Is flu going around?
Me: Fuck if I know 🤷

Eddy has a new teammate who is Black and from Zambia, who is open about being intersex (assigned female at birth/not trans) and people thinking she's male because of what she wears.

Between that and them sharing the bench/competing for minutes, hard not to see this as a very mean personal attack.
Deeply disappointed in Liz Eddy here, who I've always liked and respected. A reminder that we have a lot of work to do when it comes to educating the public about why trans inclusion isn't just morally correct, but competitively sound share.google/Gjf9a1Sl01eL...

What's crazy is that Lorena basically jumped ONTO Ball, pretty sure it was Ball's head hitting her ribs that took her down. And after a min Ball was waving off trainers. Ball is a quiet strength in the backline that's stepped in as we've needed her
Esther and Lorena down in the box after a collision. It looks like Esther is bleeding but I think it's the corner of Lorena's glove that gashes her as she's coming down. #KCBaby

Very cool that the Current got to clinch at home, especially for the handful of folks who were at FCKC games at Swope Soccer Village. Incredible journey from there to this moment..

Wait... Seriously?!
As trophies go, the NWSL Shield is pretty cool. The best part is that it lifts off the base and has a handle on the back so it can function, quite literally, as a shield.

Guess who’s #2 in goals scored for Orlando Pride after Barbra Banda?

It’s no one. “Opposing own goal” has been the second most common way that Orlando has scored goals.
