I placed 2nd in my age group in my local turkey trot and yes, I’m going to be insufferable about this for the rest of my life because it ain’t happening ever again! 🦃🥈🏃‍♀️

And they responded as Charlyn scores the equalizer.
Liga MX Femenil liguilla started today and Cruz Azul is already up 1-0 against Pachuca. Let’s see how las tuzas respond.

Couldn’t hack it as a professional in the league so you turn to hate. Pathetic. You are nothing but a coward! Also, let’s be clear, there’s no trans women in the NWSL. It’s all cis-women but just because they don’t look like you that’s when you decide to turn on them. COWARD.

Atlanta, thank you from a New England Patriots fan!

Pathetic but isn’t surprising.

Use this as a reminder to follow your local beat writers who put their sweat and tears into their work.
As someone whose time freelancing for MLSsoccer was a vital step in my career progression, and someone who generally gleans insight from the observations of others:

This sucks so hard.

So Liga F Moeve starts the 2025/2026 season this Saturday, yet there’s no details about broadcasting. Allegedly, DAZN wants out of their contract so no one has any clue where to watch the games. Liga F may be a professional league, but it’s not a serious one.

Jessica Berman, where you at? I just want to talk.
August 21, 2025 at 9:52 PM
Excuse me wtf?! Player, staff and fan safety should always be taken into account! Jessica Berman needs to answer for this but I doubt she will and the league will sweep this under the rug like they always do.

Went from being erased at Chivas (stupid DT 😡) to now shining at Toluca 🥹

8 years since the start of the league and score lines like this still exist….

Spain had so many chances to put this game to bed during regular time and especially in extra time yet they couldn’t do it.

Here’s the list of the players selected for the Liga MX Femenil All Stars team who’ll play against Barca Femeni in August.

Coaches need to have penalty practices because what are these? How many missed penalties are there now in the competition?
July 19, 2025 at 8:34 PM
Why are players still pulling hair? Doesn’t make sense.

Sweden, please, we are begging you to do the thing 🙏
sweden, pls

I’m going to be sad for the rest of the day now. Was hoping it would go differently for Norway 😢

Also, Berman out right??
Neither NWSL nor USSF have a trans athlete policy. The one NWSL adopted previously was abandoned years ago. Meanwhile, a lobby group seeking to ban trans athletes has laid out their plan for American soccer.
