One more tangent to Gotham, Queens, and the wider #NWSL picture. I asked commissioner Jessica Berman if it could be a future NWSL Championship site. No hesitation: "Absolutely." A team in NYC proper also theoretically helps media rights.
Gotham FC moving to 'world-class' Etihad Park, home of NYCFC
Gotham FC will play home games at Etihad Park in Queens, New York, beginning in 2028, putting the reigning NWSL champions inside New York City limits for the first time.

I feel like I should have said more on Chicago. I just rewatched the 2nd Wave goal and I'm not sure now you allow a goal like that when you're chasing the game....that and more on the latest episode! (Plus the return of Bekki)

Lots more this week too including the budding connection between Croix Bethune and Temwa Chawinga. And why can't the Wave win when they generate so many chances?

The Wave have dropped too many points while being the "better" team for it not to be considered a problem. Should have had 3 points tonight, got 0. Great result for Pride though who get Nicole Payne's first NWSL goal after she lost '25 to an ACL injury

Legacy with some tough defending late to hold Gotham to 1-1 draw at SI Stadium, 3rd straight without defeat for Boston, 1st goal and point away from home. Gotham have taken 1 point of 6 at home from expansion sides; will we be discussing that in November?
Humongous win for Louisville who went with Sears out of the XI; took the lead on one of the best NWSL goals I have ever seen from Katie O'Kane and instead of conceding in stoppage, got insurance from Sears off the press
Maiara Niehues got an extra game suspension after her red card the other day. Saw it and figured I underplayed her conduct. Just went back and watched it again. Still baffled. Not even sure I agree it was a red card. Extra suspension is bonkers
Recorded before Wednesday night's match ,but...like how smart are we?? (especially since this is not my quote)
