Retirements call for flowers, but also reevaluation. Christen Press’ career defies neat storylines of success on and off the field, even as she retires as a two-time World Cup winner.

Christen Press felt like a ‘villain’. The ex-USWNT forward played long enough to become a hero
The World Cup winner doesn't view her professional career as 'storybook,' but a journey full of lessons

The bleakest thing about this video is that all the things this guy loves about the UK are relatively cheap and easy to build. Alabama could have a better train system than England inside of 10 years if we decided that was a priority. We are a rich country that chooses to live like a poor one.

These quotes make me happy
Kristoffer Velde on his playing style #RCTID
“I love to go 1v1 against defenders, shoot outside the box, and link up play with attackers.”
“I hope people will enjoy watching me play football. I will for sure do some crazy stuff on the pitch… I really want to win, I will never be a good loser.”

That win was massive for several reasons:
- Keeps Portland squarely in the playoff picture (and with a shot for top 4)
- Surpasses their road win total from 2024
- Wins them 4 points out of 6 off a key Western Conference rival
Ten league games left. Onward. #RCTID

MLS, almost every sport entity wrongly conflate human rights with “politics.” Abductions of people off the street by masked, secret police is not political, it’s human rights violations. Killing unarmed, starving people at food distribution sites isn’t political, it’s genocide. Do better.

I *am* a constitutional scholar and you are correct.
I am no constitutional scholar, but I can't help but feel that "the President gets to dictate what every university can teach and what every television station should broadcast" is closer to what the founding fathers were worried about when it comes to free speech than trigger warnings on syllabi.

Would not surprise me one bit if she balled out the rest of the season.
In the current "system" the Portland Thorns implement, Jessie Fleming is pivotal to that - one of, if not the only player who can do it at 100% for 90+ minutes.
