Lol (and deep sigh from a tortured Mets fan)!
If the Spirit want to make this deal let them. Why deny us the potential of an NWSL Bobby Bonilla?
As things stand now, the NWSL isn’t fighting for Trinity Rodman. It’s fighting against her, and shadowboxing with its own potential in the process.

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”
Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

Matty Beniers with a lethal finish. Marchment's 200th point is a pretty seam pass that sets up 10's shot #SeaKraken
