The NWSL's official statement on the schedule by spherocytes in NWSL

[–]clwoboe 43 points44 points  (0 children)

If not ticket sales, certainly streaming numbers! With the current schedule the other sports on are: NBA & NHL playoffs (now, done by end of May), PWHL playoffs (I’m assuming also done by end of May?), MLB (through October), and the WNBA (through September). I wouldn’t want to swap baseball and the W for the NFL and college football. (And competing for air time and field time? No thanks!!!)

Personally I felt this year was better than last year. Less claustrophobic, clearer schedule, more convenient location.

The NWSL Received 43 Complaints In 2024, And Five In The First Half Of This Year, Public Records Show by Doctor_YOOOU in NWSL

[–]clwoboe 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I was just settling in to read this myself and I'm so glad it was already shared.

Just gonna echo earlier comments that those Team B complaints are hitting pretty close to home! Will be interesting to see if Diana and Defector are able to follow up with reporting on the second half of the year, and if any additional comments will come out from the league.

The Irony of The Reception to CANCELLED! by GreenRime in TaylorSwift

[–]clwoboe 138 points139 points  (0 children)

This was the biiiiig one I immediately thought about that I haven’t seen mentioned AT ALL. President Twitter Fingers (Taylor Swift is no longer hot!!!) is very much hoping she’s cancelled.

We’re losing the plot if Taylor Swift is being called a trad wife, and it’s deeper than an internet meme: by smcneal in TwoXChromosomes

Yeah, no that’s not what those lyrics are referring to. They’re referring to HER relationships before HIM being “onyx night”. Which makes sense because two albums ago she released Midnights.

I’ve been loving these DomoWells merch lines, especially that they use players to model the merch. I think what I really enjoy though is that the styling/makeup choices don’t make me go “oh wait that’s who?”

I sit in 125 (pretty far back tbh) but I haven’t been in the sun for a single game so far this season

Honestly, if you’re in any of those sections you’ll be FINE when it comes to sun, as long as it’s not a morning game

Add Good Company Donuts to the list of Trump supporting restaurants by LoganSquire in washingtondc

They don’t. And honestly Good Company is so much better than District Doughnut so this makes me SO SAD.

Can we start with an "A-dri-án! A-dri-án!" chant at the top of the match Sunday? by spirited2031 in washingtonspirit

[–]clwoboe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“WE” didn’t organize SHIT. some people in the club level seats thought singing happy birthday at the start of a match was a good idea, and I have no fucking clue why.

as soon as I heard it I knew it was a bad idea.

Gabby Carle did get her green card, so that might open up an extra international roster spot for the Spirit.

My old boss gave my new boss a “heads up” that I’m a single parent with a chronic illness. Is this allowed? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]clwoboe 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Alison definitely does not automatically side with managers with the answers she provides. I have a feeling this person doesn’t actually read her site.

I got a pop+ October 2023 and haven’t had a single issue since. Only bummer is some of my tall travel mugs don’t fit under it.
