Today, and every day, we stand with supporters groups across the NWSL to say - loud and clear: Trans People Belong.

In the stands, on the pitch, in our communities - everywhere.

Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and celebrated.
No exceptions.

Charles Flores, a wrongfully convicted football fan, is running out of time. I visited him in Texas for the one hour of the day when he's not in solitary confinement, to talk about life on death row — a decade after the real killer went free: youtu.be/0-GnKLFY_Gc?...

Yes, we smashed our initial goal of $10K. Y'all are incredible. We are in shock but also dreaming big. We are (somehow) currently at $19,518 (WTF!?!).

We'd love to make it above $21K today.

That will get us a monthly episode from June to the end of 2026!!

A new season of Burn It All Down is coming and we need your help to make it happen. Your support keeps independent, feminist sports media alive!

Stop praising the NFL for getting Bad Bunny for the Super Bowl halftime show as if they are "standing up to Trump." 1) The NFL owners *bankroll* Trump. 2) Bad Bunny is 💰. He's beyond famous. RATINGS 🔥 3) The NFL's next new international game is in Madrid where - shocker - they speak Spanish. (1/2)

Shouts to @womensgamemib.bsky.social for their support of trans and non-binary athletes. #TransPeopleBelong
Happy National Girls & Women in Sports Day ✨

Today is about celebrating all the women & girls who inspire us in sports—including trans & non-binary athletes. For those who paved the way and those that will follow, we continue the fight for inclusivity and community in sports 💛

Never Furtget.
We're reaching a generation where NWSL front offices forgot about FURT and now we have EMPOW in 2026
When you see it, you can be it. When you believe in her, you empower her.

We’re proud to announce, with Portland Fire, under the RAJ Sports, the launch of EmpowHER.

so Heated Rivalry-pilled, I had to find the local angle about it 🏒🌈

New York’s queer hockey club is seeing a LOT more interest these days! (and so are leagues like it around the country.) new story from me:
Join the Club: ‘Heated Rivalry’ is Making Queer Hockey New York’s Hottest Sport
The Pride Hockey Alliance has been bringing “hot queer friends” together for years before the buzziest show on ice.

Gotham FC is the fun team that has been a cinderella (lowest seed) in both of its championship runs and yet other NWSL fans are tired of its shit. Its fan group, @cloud9goth.bsky.social is one of the league's strongest and it even has its own branded beer from a Jersey City brewery.

After the Olympics, I'll be putting together a game to help Commish pick an NWSL team before the season starts.

If you want to recruit him to your fandom, drop your favorite gameday experience, stadium tradition, or abstract description of the team's vibe below, and I'll include them in my pitches

We have hit our goal (more on that soon, and yes I'm crying) but every dollar we raise above our goal amount = more episodes of BIAD. To pay everyone and to pay for the services we need to make the show, it costs about $3K/episode bare bones and we'd love to make 10000000 episodes.
now here's something worth supporting with a few bucks today.
I love Burn It All Down. I am incredibly proud to be a part of it. And I hope we get to make more episodes. Thanks for sharing and contributing and listening. Burn on, not out! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bur...

I’m so glad BIAD is back! And so thrilled they shouted out my newsletter about the NHL trying to capitalize on Heated Rivalry while also being homophobic asshats. 🙏

This is solid from Legay. So far, I have Bay FC, ACFC, and Boston as teams celebrating Black people as a theme night. Please correct me if I'm missing a team. Reminder, EVERY team is doing Pride despite not playing in June. Juneteenth is also in June.
Mark your calendars and start planning your gameday fits accordingly 🤩

Check out our themes and giveaways for our inaugural season.

Sylvs joined André for a chat about the future of the USWNT, not in terms of results but something just as important (if not more so): its advocacy. We discuss what’s missing, and how to reclaim it.

NEW: I wrote a little about why I think The Athletic should either correct or retract their puff piece on Britta Curl from December, in light of even more evidence of her anti-trans views. It was a blatant attempt at damage control ahead of the Olympics & The Athletic participated in it.

Been trying to sort something since the start of September (the DWP does not move at pace) but I’m still in limbo with it and I know I’m going to struggle to get the rent paid this month so, I’m again, shittily having to boost this.

Great bounce back win. I’m tempted to say the semifinal was a little flukey, but also kind of the classic Gotham problem of spells without scoring. Also of note, Gotham’s entire style of play involves a high level of fitness that they’re only just starting to get back.
