If Simone Charley's back-to-back Achilles ruptures are something of a Greek tragedy, her comeback is a Hero’s Journey - ending with her first goal in 3 years.

"There are a lot of moments where I didn't think I would play again."

Bev Yanez has led @racingloufc.com the club’s best seasons ever. For a new coach, it’s an impressive run, but she did learn from the best.

Before coaching, Yanez played on Laura Harvey’s @reignfc.com. I spoke to them about what tonight’s matchup means to them

@racingloufc.com 's Arin Wright walked onto the pitch last week with a new favorite memento: a captain armband designed by her 5 year old son.

I talked to her about that moment, coming home to Kentucky, & what her late mother would think of both: t.co/4sCMQ88TkM

Last year, @houstondash.com made history when three players went on maternity leave at the same time.

Meet Copa, the team's PT who developed a "playbook" to getting players like Ryan Gareis back on the pitch in a remarkable four months.

I can’t believe this has to be said, but: You cannot tell the story of Jackie Robinson—as a ballplayer, serviceman, or human—without discussing our country’s history of racism.

Not to like toot my own horn but *every time* I bring up tariffs on the radio I define them: "tariffs are taxes American businesses pay to import goods from abroad."

Given all the lies and the fact that many Americans didn't take international economics 101, I encourage others to do this as well.
