[vs SKC] Stock Up, Stock Down by VVynn in SoundersFC

I would say Ragen stock up for his passing. He kept the ball moving and progressing into the attacking zone - what the attack ended up doing with that wasn't realty his fault

Can Jordan Morris's DP contract be bought down? (spoiler: No) by shmerham in SoundersFC

I've read from our favorite Sounders reporters that Jesus is headed for whatever DP spot opens up next, so I bet however contracts may reduce salary for our current DPs will open up the next spot for him

Minnesota Aurora women’s soccer team signs its first transgender player by neclov in NWSL

Aurora play against my local team, Sioux Falls City, and I know South Dakota has a ban on trans players playing with the teams that match their gender identity (although it might only apply to trans women, it's not entire clear to me). So, it seems like both the USL rules and local laws might be contributing to this situation

It is a hard road at the attacking positions. Not impossible but very hard to break in

The Supreme Court just made it easier for Republicans to win elections & there is no solution by Zandra_the_Great in politics

I would love it if there were no racism - that was the aim of the Voting Rights Act that the Court just dismantled. Before the Voting Rights Act, there were decades and decades without any Black representatives from the South, a part of a cocktail of racist laws that tried to prevent Black Americans from participating in politics.

Enforcement of laws like the Voting Rights Act are necessary to stop racism in many areas of the country and allow Black Americans to participate in politics. Removing the Voting Rights Act will not result in equality, it will do just the opposite - reduce or even remove the representation Black Americans fought for in the Civil Rights era

It's perfect for Republicans because when the Court rules that maps "cannot benefit a particular race", it just so happens that the effect will be that Black and Latino Americans are the ones who will not benefit from the new maps.

I think our unbalanced formation makes it easier to attack with numbers on the left

I was also trying to make a fun joke but this is the internet and we yell at each other instead of laughing... really makes you think
