2.1 million miles in, and I will never get used to the anticipation and exhilaration of this moment, when the wings pull the wheels from the ground and you are free.

My personal PWHL fandom began with the Takeover Tour game pitting Hilary Knight vs Marie-Philip Poulin. Tuesday night will be rematch time!

Montreal Victoire fans can now cheer on the team in a new location, at the city's new female sports bar, Le Nadia.

Good. Now let's see more national sports bodies boycott Alberta and step up for girls in sports. I would love to see the PWHL and WNBA push back on these hateful laws. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calga...

Let’s give back together 💙 📅 Dec 15-16 (10 AM-4 PM) | Dec 17 (10 AM-12 PM) 📍 955 Av. de Bois-de-Boulogne, Laval Drop off your non-perishable food donations at the Roses training centre. All items will be distributed to the Centre de bénévolat et Moisson Laval. Thank you for your generosity! 🌹

Huge reform in UK: ticket touting will be banned, making it illegal to resell tickets above face value... met with overwhelming support from artists and fan advocacy groups. humanitix.com/au/blog/ukti...

Between NCAA Soccer and VB tourneys, PWHL, WNBA, and, I sheepishly admit, a certain Bears p*ckers game… I totally missed this result! I wanna see more NWSL vs NSL action!!!!

When AMERICA is the backwater of women’s football in ten years just like it always has been for men, let it be remembered that it was under Jessica Berman’s watch. #nwsl

I want to point out that Phallon Tullis-Joyce volunteered at this aquarium in her free time while she was in Seattle. #manu #nwsl #wsl #reignfc

Start of a new era. #pwhl #seattletorrent

Seattle! Join me on Friday at Climate Pledge Arena to usher in a new era of hockey, women’s sport, another thread in the tapestry of this Pacific Northwest we share. #pwhl

NNOOOOO! Why does the UW Huskies Elite Eight game have to be at the same time as the Seattle Torrent home opener????

There is a double standard about yellow cards given for time wasting. Don’t even try to argue this. #esther #nwslchampionship #nwsl

Finally. Something happened in this soccer match. Speaking of ex-Reign players about to win championships… Rose Lavelle. #nwsl #nwslchampionship

As will be the case all season long, I’ll be giving away one free ticket to Ottawa Charge home games. (I know, one ticket is lame, but it’s all I needed) The giveaway starts now, ahead of the home opener tomorrow against New York! I’d love to help you or someone you know go, so send me a message!

Claudia was robbed for GK of the year. Insert standard comment about no GK ever wants to lead the league in saves here. But lead she did, because she played behind a porous defense and a team that could not score goals. And yet that team made the playoffs. Lorena watched her team win some games.

Must be nice sitting back there with multi-goal leads for most of your games watching your defense in a Vlatko block all season... It’s crustacean robbery, it is.

Every time an ex-Reign player wins a championship, it fills my heart. Mostly with joy, but there is a tinge of bittersweet in there too.

Yes!!!! A GK MVP!!!!!!! #nsl #nslfinal

It’s Stanton!!!! #nsl #nslfinal

lmao BMO Field playing Thunderstruck for the lightning evac. #nsl #nslfinal

I love that this trophy is named for Diana Matheson, a tireless advocate of women’s sport. not some rich or titled dude… #nsl #nslfinal

Who should I root for? Decided not to rep my Roses and be true neutral today. 😝 #nsl #nslfinal

Allez Les Roses (de 10000m!) When I land in Montreal I wanna go to a party befitting a come back win!!!! #nsl

Allez Les Roses! Soccer in the SNOW!!!! Anything can happen! When I’m in the stands at BMO Field next week, I really want to care about the outcome! #nsl

C’mon Reign, I’m not ready to close the book on Lu Barnes’ career.

Players and coaches from both clubs in tonight’s NWSL playoff match between our @reignfc.com and Orlando Pride are wearing orange wristbands or ribbons in their hair for Mia Hamant, UW Women’s soccer goalkeeper, who passed away last night. 🧡🧡🧡

I’m a fan of the ref cam. #reignfc #nwsl

Hard not to wonder what would have been if Latifah Abdu were still with the Roses… #nsl

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

I liked Sarah Gorden from the minute I heard her Soccer Girl Problems episode and I’m so proud that she is speaking up and standing for good now. Because if you’re transphobic or racist, you’re a bully and we all need to stand against bullies. #acfc #nwsl

PTJ and Clawdia getting consecutive starts with USWNT is poetic. #reignfc

If I owned Reign FC, I woulda opened the gates to anybody wearing a Mariners shirt or holding a ticket to the game next door tonight.

Tell a friend to tell a friend... SINGLE GAME TICKETS ARE ON SALE NOW! 🗣️ 🎟️ bit.ly/4qcVbUm

Disappointed in @nsl.ca website not having any information on playoff scenarios or even the rules on tiebreaks. Do @rosesmtl.ca still have a chance at 2nd place and a home playoff game (if Rise lose and Roses win, they would be tied on points, and 2-2-1 head to head… so what then? goal diff?)

As a soccer dad, it can be hard to keep those emotions in check on the sideline. I developed a filter that has served me well for over a decade now: “Would I yell this to Lu Barnes?” “Go Reign!” - Yes “Kick the ball!” “Don’t clear it to the middle!” “Pressure!!” - No

Rooting for an all-Seattle World Series!!! If you’re scratching your head right now, reference history of the Brewers, fka Pilots…

2025 a vu naître un mouvement. En 2026, il fleurit en force. 💙 Billets de saison à partir de 23 $/match → bit.ly/3KrQcyK 2025 sparked a movement. In 2026, it's coming into full bloom. 🌹 Season tickets from $23/match → bit.ly/3Iy6khD

This schedule release is brought to you by your friendly downtown Seattle glizzy cart! 🌭

After opening in Vancouver, PWHL Seattle’s got 5 straight at Climate Pledge… I’d say we’ll know a lot about the tenor of this inaugural season by the end of December! Can’t think of a better way to spend Black Friday than that home opener!

"Whoever forbids Antifa, wants fascism! Make Antifa Great Again!" - Bayern Munich fans on Friday, right behind the goal, so guaranteed to be in the broadcast worldwide.

For eight years I have excused my use of Protonmail “because security is worth the compromises” but FINALLY with this release I can say simply “I am using the best AND most secure email. And you should too. Period.”

Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin ✨ figured out what stars are made of ✨ when she was just 25. 🔭🧪 Her PhD thesis basically established the Harvard astro department — at a time when Harvard didn't officially allow woman students. I wrote this little profile to mark the 100th anniversary of her thesis:

That point in the season when you suddenly care about the tiebreak rules… #rosesfc #nsl

If you need a little hope this morning - the current tween trend involves decorating clothespins with affirming messages, then clipping them on friends' backpacks when they're not looking. Here are a few that my 11-year-old decorated this weekend ❤️

I am glad that the league has learned from their past mistakes. I am proud of Seattle for cheering when the announcement was made that the game was suspended. #nwsl #reignfc #racinglouisville

Finally wearing my Resist scarf. #reignfc #nwsl

The best thing about Anthony Rizzo is that he has the same smile as all the kids around him in the stands at Wrigley today. It was the same smile he had on the field as a Cub, too. Truly, a joy to watch.

The pro teams I root for scored a grand total of zero goals this week. At least the kiddo’s team won their tourney last week… scoring 15 and conceding 1. Who, me, live vicariously through my kids??? nooooooooo, not me! 🤣 #reignfc #rosesfc
