I've only watched the first period so don't tell me anything, but the American women are incredible. The Italians look as good as the Canadians did, to be honest, but the Americans are overwhelming them. Which is why the true hero of the game so far is Italian goalie Gabriella Durante.

So true, actually. There is minimal opportunity for Mamdani to be tempted by all that power and bribe money. (Though I submit that the mayor of NYC would still be a significant attractor for bribes, which is why the Cuomos were all over it.)
