Chesky is really trying to keep this from being an NWSL After Dark match with two yellows given out in a span of 72 seconds before we even hit the halfway mark of the first half

Is it just me or is this match like rock 'em sock 'em robots meets a slip’n’slide but also with a ball?

Taylor Vincent @tayvincent6.bsky.social · 3d

Ooh yes. Another ad that’s too long

(This is why I watch it muted)

Taylor Vincent @tayvincent6.bsky.social · 3d

Apparently, it would be ‘crazy’ to end an ad early when the game continues

The first report last night did have her showing as SEI but I confirmed with Seattle Comms that was not accurate with what they turned into the league and another was sent out by the NWSL with it accurate

I think because of maternity leave based on the release. They just had a really weird wording to it
