Kandace Wilson leaves Sunday’s FC Gold Pride game against LA Sol on crutches after a second half hip check from Marta caused Wilson to be transported to urgent care. After witnessing this sudden and – uh – forceful display of force from the league’s golden child, many of us are perhaps wondering if WPS [...]
Sometimes off the pitch is more interesting than on
By: Melissa |On Saturday, Sky Blue FC released a statement informing us that Ian Sawyers has been indefinitely suspended. That’s General Manager and Head Coach Ian Sawyers getting the axe and putting assistant Kelly Lindsey in the top spot for Friday’s game against the Freedom. And how long she’ll stay head coach, is uh… not [...]
Dear Brandi Chastain
By: Melissa |You might want to look into fixing that. And good luck tomorrow. I’ll be one of the four people in the stands attempting to create some sort of supporters section. Except, uh, I keep forgetting to buy a ticket.

By: Melissa |I was at the gym when this happened and actually in front of a tv except I forgot my headphones DOH!
Whut up it’s a weekend review
By: Melissa |Talk about bizzarro weekend. The big word these teams can’t seem to get a good grasp on is consistency. Also, the veetle channel appears to be permanently offline now.
