The stats are clear: Gotham has never lost a championship after signing Katie Stengel mid-season and having her score a game-winner in the playoffs

Damn turns out it's not impossible to both make a factual correction about a player's gender and say you stand with trans people
The Black Women’s Player Collective has dropped a statement as well this morning on their Instagram in light of the recent comments made this week.

Quick release another statement about how all the players are afab
48 hours before the playoffs kickoff. FUCK. OFF.

I have so much respect for the @nwslplayers.bsky.social but to me this misses the point. The issue isn't that the attacks on specific NWSL players are factually incorrect (they are); it's that the hysteria and bigotry around trans, intersex, and gender nonconforming athletes hurts all women
Inbox: NWSLPA Releases statement condemning attacks on players
"We stand firmly with all our members - including, and especially, the African women who have been targeted by divisive and demeaning rhetoric”

@nwslsoccer.com what are you going to do to protect your players?
About to pop into an appointment, but a quick update:
No Elizabeth Eddy, but Fox News ran a segment with Jennifer Sey, founder of the transphobic organization xx-xy, who said “the NWSL has several males I. The league… including their best player, Barbra Banda.”

She had ONE game left on her contract. She could have ridden off into the sunset with the trophies her teammates won for her and had a nice life. And instead she chose this
Fox News has picked up Elizabeth Eddy’s column, and the response from the Angel City players.
I’m hearing Eddy will appear on Fox and Friends tomorrow morning.

They have to allow this goal, there's no other appropriate end to this miserable season

On the one hand this review is kind of unhinged but on the other, Jun Endo never got justice for her disallowed goal in game 1 of 2023 which is perhaps when it all started to go bad for Angel City

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...

Another thing I can say now that I'm no longer an Angel City employee: it's corny as fuck to make a sign or t-shirt that says "Cedars-Sinai" on it to wear to a game and more people should say this

Just connected the dots on the fact that my dad was a patient at Oregon Medical Group, which got bought by United Healthcare a few years ago, causing all the doctors to quit; my dad waited months for appointments multiple times and wasn't diagnosed with cancer until a few months before he died
