My main takeaway from the NWSL awards finalists is that Meghan Klingenberg is having the best season of her career and no one seems to have noticed. It's very weird!
Logging back in briefly to just say I've really been enjoying @TheDanLauletta's articles on the history of big NWSL trades. Thanks Dan!
One weird thing about sports in America is that your champion can be a team who finished the season with a +1 goal difference
Just popping back over to this hell-app to say how DARE they redesign the NWSL trophy. Sure it's sleek and interesting now, but how can you improve on what is already perfect?
Finally got an account at the other place. You can find me at olneyce over there. So if you want the occasional joke, update about the kiddo, or random Damallsvenskan thoughts, that's where I'll be.
Logged back into twitter for a second to find out what the heck is going on with this US Open delay. General consensus of my feed: "what the heck is going on with this US Open delay." Ah yes, twitter I remember you.
Let's go Madi (at some point)!
Back in the US, which apparently means Tweetdeck is now inaccessible. So I guess that's it for me around here. It's been (occasionally) fun, y'all.
There's a lot of 'this one super sub would completely change the game and we would win' on this app, and it's mostly very silly.
On the other hand, Rebecka Blomqvist.
Coming into the tournament, I knew Rubensson was great, but I definitely didn't realize how great. Incredible performances.
The Swedish gameplan of 'hope Spain continues to play sloppy passes and maybe we can score' is not the *worst* approach, but I wouldn't bet heavily on it working out.
Hearing rumors that there will be a new Nobel Prize awarded this year in the category of Just Clearing the Damn Ball.
The US population is 30 times as big as Sweden, almost 20 times as big as the Netherlands, and roughly 117 times as big as Jamaica.
Like, yes it's overly simplistic to say 'if there was a European Union team, they would pretty routinely crush the United States' but that doesn't mean it isn't true.
