I do wonder how much NWSL would have to spend on salaries for England to just decide to not respond. Right now they’re spending just enough to be a clear No. 1 but those clubs obviously have the capacity to spend £10m/yr on salaries if they think they need to.

I’m sure that will calm everyone down
EXCLUSIVE:
spoke to #NWSL commissioner Jessica Berman this morning about Trinity Rodman and the salary cap, which doesn’t seem to be going anywhere
the salary cap, she said, is “the reason our league is the most competitive league in the world”

if this was true (it isn't), wouldn't it completely undercut their argument that they aren't utterly dominant and it isn't obvious who they are
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.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

2. Playoffs now happen in a relatively quiet part of the NA sports calendar.

Obviously there are some pretty significant potential drawbacks but I think the upside is bigger. It’s the right decision.

I wish John Fetterman a speedy and full recovery but also if you're in the Senate and have chronic health problems that prevent you from doing your job all the time, you need to resign

Thomas Massie to CNN on the Epstein files: "This vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president. And what are you gonna do in 2028 and 2030 when you're in a debate … and they say, 'How can we trust you? You covered up for a pedophile back in 2025.'"

It's not particularly relevant what a grown adult's job was at the time they were assaulting teenagers, but I was under the impression Trump was hanging with Epstein and doing crimes 20 years ago, not like, while he was the President
