So we've now outsourced the valuation of players for an American soccer league to European media.

Looking forward to mediocre English players making more than their superior American equivalents!

Ah yes, the famously informed and reflective Ballon d’Or Féminin and a not-at-all convoluted and devoid of ball knowledge “SportsPro Media Top 150 Most Marketable Athletes.”

An all-time fumble from a league that looks less confident in its trajectory and planning with every passing week.

Once the debate centers on whether the 2nd strike was legal, the first 21 strikes have been accepted as baseline. But the murder of the two survivors doesn’t make the other 21 any more legal. Selective outrage, not silence, is how authoritarianism becomes normalized @tadstoermer.bsky.social

I spoke with Any Lucía López Belloza, the Babson College student who was on her way to surprise her family for Thanksgiving when ICE deported her.

"My 5-year-old sister still believes that I might go home for Christmas," she tells me.

Unrelated but ironic to current NWSL events: San Diego Wave's 7v7 World Sevens team is one of four remaining in the hunt today for a $2M prize for the winner of the three-day tournament.

#NWSL's team salary cap for the whole 2025 season was $3.5M.

Immigration arrests in New York City have slowed since peaking in the summer months while deportations increased, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement data available through mid-October released Monday and analyzed by THE CITY.

The number of deportations exceeded the number of arrests in August and again in September — the first time that’s happened in the two years for which data is available.

Juan Carlos Amoros is so insanely good at developing new dimensions to a players game. Sarah Schupansky plays the first half of her rookie season as a winger/10, but then loses most of her minutes when Rose, Midge, Gabi get healthy. All JCA does it turn her into an 8 who can start a Champ. Final!

We have all normalized it at this point because it never stops, but it is fucking psychotic that the mayor elect of New York City who has never said an anti-Semitic thing in his life has to answer "what do you say to Jews who feel unsafe" as a condition of doing any interview.

I’ve spent a lot of the last three years investigating the rise of anti-trans politics. Often, it came back to the controversy over trans women athletes.

So I teamed up with @pablo.show to look into the leading figure on the issue: Riley Gaines.
