It’s yer damn preview and I don’t care what week we’re at anymore
By: Melissa |Okay y’all. DO read Dan Loney’s assessment of WPS so far. Funny, hopeful, and insightful. And he’s on the mark when it comes to Julie Foudy’s dream women’s team picks. Seems Foudy still wants to party like it’s 1999. The rest of us have kinda moved on already. Just because [...]
On players blogging
By: Melissa |I have to admit I’m a bit behind on what’s going on over at the WPS Fancorner. Players blogging is a regular thing now and it’s cool and the blogs get lots of comments. The posts themselves remain a bit on the tame & quaint side – thanking fans, appreciating the win or [...]
You better catch a game before swine flu cancels CONCACAF: week 4? 5? review
By: Melissa |Sorry I’m a bit late on this but I just got so busy cornify-ing the WPS website. Here, I took a screenshot:
Booootiful I say. Anyways, where were we?
La Sol 0 – Saint Louis Athetica 0 Oh snap! La Sol are perhaps relying a bit too heavily on Marta to get the job done? [...]
Picture of the Week: ESPN just got cornified
By: Melissa |I’m not entirely sure how long this little bug was up on espn.com, but for a while there if you typed in the konami code (up up down down left right left right b a enter), the website filled with unicorns and rainbows. No idea if this was an intentional ploy to drum up [...]
Me & this Sapporo ’bout to get comfortable and whip up a WPS preview
By: Melissa |How long do you think it will take Ally Wagner to sneak a reference to Advocare into a tweet? Not only is it the drink for athletes but I bet it’s a huge hit at Burning Man. Speaking of (sorta), did anyone go to Coachella? My friends’ big ol’ mechanical fire breathing [...]
Week “who with the what now?” 3? 4? Review
By: Melissa |I stop paying attention for like a week and a bunch of new blogs spring up to cover me (well, in MY mind that’s what they’re doing). For the official officialness, WPS redesigned their site and added enough information to cause seizures. Goal.com also put together a good women’s soccer page. And [...]
Picture of the Week
By: Melissa |If you subscribe to Peter Wilt’s twitter/facebook, then you’ve already seen the frankencheesy – bacon wrapped hot dog with cheese filling. Saturday morning, my friend and I retrieved these cardiac arrest machines inside styrofoam containers from a Milwaukee diner next to the Highbury Pub. And then I got made fun of for not [...]
Here’s a hilarious video to tide you over til Sunday
By: Melissa |Perhaps this player takes lessons from the Kelly Smith school of fouls?
The most half-assed preview post in the history of The Offside
By: Melissa |The job that actually pays me is kicking my ass all over the place this week so my exceptionally half-assed previews & reviews aren’t going to happen (call this a cry for help for a co-blogger – anyone? Beuhller?). Tune in next week when I plan to get back to the usual and by [...]
Better late than never? Your review + preview
By: Melissa |To put it mildly, my entire April is out of whack. I will be slippin a bit. Moving on. There were some games last weekend and there are some games coming up this weekend and HOLEY CRAP did ya watch the Boston/Bay Area one on Sunday? Cause that was some straight [...]
