Alyssa Naeher would yoink Crystal Dunn all the way across the ice!

What would a letter writing campaign to various national teams/FAs urging them to boycott the World Cup on safety and humanitarian grounds look like?

More like EkitikHEY, amirite??

Dueling goalies have a gay romance, call that Cleated Romance. Or wait, actually, just call it the NWSL. 💜 🌈

“It would be reasonable to assume that those who disregard the truth so blatantly can also not be trusted to host a safe and secure World Cup.” www.reddit.com/r/soccer/s/h...

What’s that meme? When the worst person you know makes the right point? www.reddit.com/r/soccer/s/Q...

There go any questions of FIFA boycotting or changing the World Cup to protect, well, anyone.

Why. Is. Our. Stream. Bufferingggggggg just let us watch the final!!!

Hey hey celebrate Morocco’s penalty kick win with cookies!!!

IT IS 0-0 at full time, folks! Quick, call your electeds before we go into OT and demand they: Defund ICE Prosecute Kristi Noem Impeach RFK, Jr

Half time action: call your member of Congress and demand they support stripping funding for ICE:

Well. At least there’s AFCON.

Absolutely laughable idea. Zero history of women’s football, dreadful LGBTQ rights record, huge expense to travel there — all adds up to a hugely inaccessible tournament. At a time when we want the game to grow, ridiculous to stage a tournament somewhere with no local support

There’s a lot of footie today. Which means a lot of half times to call your elected officials and demand they defund and dismantle ICE. 5calls.org

Lots of good footie wedding news this week!!!

Omg what would our roller derby name be?? Mia Bamm?

Should 2026 be the year we start a disco footie team? www.instagram.com/reel/DSz7Zpj...

High impact player rule - the player should have at least one million Instagram followers, be lactose intolerant, score at least 1100 on the SATs, have a 4.7 Uber rating, and their favorite color should be blue.

one thing that’s become very obvious about jessica berman’s nwsl is that owners would still much rather pay lawyers than players

As always, follow @treblenikki.bsky.social for style and hotness hot takes:

The day his voice is no longer a voice of American soccer, the better our sport will be.

We’re resentful when one team’s women’s and men’s sides play at the same time- obvs we always choose to watch the women’s side but should we have to choose??

This Forest-Spurs match looks like Ketchup Vs Mustard, no we will not be taking any questions.

FIFA has trademarked the words “World Cup” and refuses to let bars and restaurants hosting watch parties use the phrase to advertise their events. How would you advertise your World Cup event without using the phrase “World Cup?” (From Episode 270)

[Sports Business Journal] FIFA in talks with networks about commercial options during World Cup hydration breaks Like we didn’t know this was the real reason for water breaks, it wasn’t ever for the players welfare

We’re not saying that if your team is homophobic, you’ll lose, but we ARE saying that being homophobic makes you a loser.

FIFA just invented its Peace Prize for President Trump. But this is the story of the innocent professional soccer player and youth coach that this administration had disappeared and tortured. Now Jerce Reyes is free — and talking to PTFO: youtu.be/vlz3eGwHZBY?...

Proud Lilywhites, Tottenham's LGBTQ+ supporters association, says Slavia Prague has asked the club to take down a Progress Flag ahead of tonight's Champions League game over "security concerns" As the first reply on Reddit says: "Hope our matchgoing fans are extra gay in protest"

This is incredibly sad- and unforgivable.

Thinking of Grant Wahl today & sending love to his family, former peers & those who loved his writing. Last night I found something I wrote after his passing, with help from @meglinehan.com & @jtannenwald.bsky.social. I published it today, as a small tribute. www.linkedin.com/pulse/grant-...

We still can’t believe that fascist fever dream we watched yesterday.

A "FIFA Peace Prize" is tantamount to getting an "AutoZone Best Actor in a Dramatic Play" award. And "I want to really save lives" is rich coming from the homicidal slob who is murdering people on fishing boats in the Caribbean.

Pay attention to how media covers this draw. Who calls out the issues and which ones gloss over it. Plenty of sports outlets are quite ready to play along with FIFA & Trump and they do not deserve neither your time nor your money. #worldcupdraw

Yup. apple.news/ASkRfqKvJQt6...

And (potentially, but probably not) fucking Italy?!

What would your name be if Wayne Gretzky pronounced it?

Shame they didn’t let actual soccer broadcasters that have dedicated their careers to the sport do it.

Just a couple of strangers sitting next to each other, likely not discussing anything but the Men's World Cup Draw, for sure!

I wrote about Infantino’s love of despots years ago but that peace prize is such a shameless example of what he is and what he wants to do with the sport www.instagram.com/stories/zeet...

This whole thing is giving us the ick.

So the US is just getting countries it's beaten in friendlies this year? Totally random, very cool.

We’re already seeing “no THIS is the group of death” and god, we’re so tired.

How many colonizer clásicos are we gonna get this tournament

Nation's Racists Announce Plan To Unite Behind USMNT Until They Lose www.thenutmegnews.com/current/2025...

Canadá and Switzerland in the same group means that at least @sonjamissio.bsky.social will give us some good content.

It’s not even So-Bad-it’s-Fun. It’s just…so bad.

What if we told you those are all Trump’s hands?

This wildly tacky World Cup draw is a grimly fascinating preview of what happens if the aesthetics of fascism finally get their way.

What if I told you the draw has been on for 90 minutes and no one knows anything about the World Cup groups
