"The NWSL and the Players Association will eventually have to decide who is worthy of their protection." Exactly.

Fun fact: most sentences are better when you don’t inject “assigned female at birth” into them

Sadly, it won’t be bigotry that bounces you from the league.

One of the first things I learned at Syracuse was how badly Black members of the community had been fucked over in the past. So happy to see the city elect its first Black mayor in a landslide (76% as of last tally).

My city, Syracuse, NY, which was a major hub of the Abolitionist movement, has a 25% Black population, and has the highest concentration of poverty among Black people in America, appears to have elected its first-ever Black mayor.

Why culture wars distract from the real problem: a class conflict plaguing the West’s capitalist stronghold by Riley Gaines

The “comptroller race” is what happens when you and your sibling fight for player 1 on the Wii

I'm pretty sure Sarah Gorden is the only person so far to use the word "transphobia"

I also think officially engaging bad faith actors over eligibility in a statement like this means the “protect women’s sports” crowd have successfully controlled the conversation. Everyone’s dancing around the underlying problem, except for Sarah Gorden.

“This was a mean and racist thing to say. We stand with our players, who, by the way, aren’t dirty transexuals. They’re real women. Unlike trans people. Stop saying they’re trans people. Thanks!”

Mamdani maxxing. Zohran pilled. DSA dialed. Locked in on livable wages. etc.

trying to start a sport analytics club at willamette. we shall see if it happens. in the meantime, does anyone have any good non-soccer resources? i am admittedly not very diverse when it comes to sport expertise.

put "heroic and, even, perfect" next to "a multitude of factors" in the woso lexicon

Official Opta number is 0.0122 on Cincinnati's lone shot. All but 1 of Columbus' shots had higher xG values. Dread it, run from it, regression to the mean arrives all the same.

Paga impuestos. Vota en cada elección que se convoque. Sigue la dieta mediterránea. Cómete las uvas con los tuyos el 31 de Diciembre. Tómate algo con tus amigos. Lucha por una vivienda justa. Sal por dónde te apetezca. Cree en lo que más te reconforte. Diles a esta gente que tu también eres español.

I know it’s mostly jokes and stuff, and I agree that Harvey shouldn’t be using chatgpt to help her coach in any capacity, but I don’t think it does anyone any good to pretend that that’s actually what happened rather than her messing around in the offseason and going, “oh, yeah, back 5. good idea"

Love this quote. Learn more about @americansocceranalysis.com' foray into club consulting along with how MNUFC is using us to help with recruiting in this article from Joe and @backheeled.com.

great post! I'm loving @catabush.com's writing on poetry & this is maybe my favorite post so far, getting at how language works differently in rhymed vs free verse, memorization and mystification, finding balance in felt pleasure vs puzzle…

It's time for my favorite piece of content we do every year: our fan survey. This year, we're collaborating with over 20 independent outlets to try and get it out to as many people as we can! If you have even a passing interest in Major League Soccer, could you take a minute and fill this out?

The level of delusion here is maddening. You can tell she just like doesn’t consider nonbinary or trans masc people.

just read a linkedin post about a company "organically building" reddit threads about their products to influence LLMs so that they would recommend that product more in the future. RIP reddit 2025

Notes on the tank: - HC Cuba is real susceptible to algae and grows slowly BUT is bouncing back against all odds - buce v anubias is like small dog v big dog meme. all of my buce has been wimpy af - holy mother of god, hygrophila pinnatifida LOVES the emersed state. stuff is growing like crazy

What do these commentators have against Sesko 😭😭

When I wrote my preview for @thetransferflow.bsky.social, I was high on Sunderland. The organizational structure, squad overhaul, and youth focus were all good signs. I remember thinking that if they stayed up this season, mid table wasn’t out of reach. This is a whole new level of insanity though

Literal superhero speech. When has a politician ever talked like this on camera? Chills
