a very strange non-contact injury that looked innocuous, but ended up with a bloody sock and a stretcher.

This is great from Jeff: real clarity on why Rodman's potential departure is much more of a bellwether than the handful of big USWNT names to leave NWSL, and on what her leaving would mean for the next players down that list.
The #NWSL is staring down the departure of Trinity Rodman, a rare star who transcends sports and whose exemplary play and relatable personality attracts the casual fans that the league seeks to grow, due to salary cap limitations.

The league of choice must choose its future.
NWSL faces litmus test to retain Trinity Rodman's star power
Trinity Rodman represents some of the very best that the NWSL has to offer. That's why Saturday's NWSL Championship -- perhaps her final game -- feels so significant.

Three days ago I had, for what seemed to be no reason at the time, a completely random recollection of the (objectively correct) man who threw his shoe at George W. Bush.

Now I know I was just metaphysically preparing for the good Luis Rubiales to throw eggs at the bad Luis Rubiales.
Luis Rubiales was at his book launch for “Matar a Rubiales” when his own uncle — also named Luis Rubiales! — threw eggs at him. This sentence is all somehow completely true?

lol never mind, Kouassi's cross somehow, someway, in the deep depths of the 98th minute, finds the bottom corner. Unreal ending at Audi.
Sheridan saved 3 1v1s in this game, & San Diego has an equalizer from basically their only chance in the 90 minutes.

Gonna be a lot of ref talk, but I'd be remiss if I didn't say the Spirit should have buried this game long ago.

Full time, 0-0. Gotham finishes Group B with 10 points, Spirit (7 pts) still have a home match vs. Monterrey coming up in 14 days. Spirit goal difference edge means a win of any kind & they win the group.

Charlie Kirk’s death is a tragedy — a young wife widowed, two children robbed of their father. But while we grieve the loss, we must also face the truth: he was no martyr, and his record shows a politics of exclusion, fear, and privilege that cannot be whitewashed.

Since beating Ghana in a friendly almost two years ago, USMNT is now 0-5-1 with three goals for and 15 conceded in official windows against formidable non-Concacaf countries.

Just 9+ months and nine friendlies to get it right before the World Cup.
