I was a bit busy on Saturday losing my phone in the Bayview while watching a large metal sculpture shoot fire, so I missed the part where the W-League playoffs schedule and division titles were announced. These titles are for, what I can only assume are, the best records in each region. And [...]
W-League winds down, onward to the Olympics!

To say it’s been a hard couple of days for me is a bit of an understatement. I’ve heard precarious arguments from our President regarding this oil crisis. I’ve heard disturbing comments from our Federal Reserve Chairman regarding this oh-no-it’s-really-not-a recession, and I’ve heard one of our presumptive Presidential candidate’s top economic advisors [...]

It’s not looking good for Jersey Sky Blue to make the W-League playoffs. The Washington Freedom just clinched berth #2, and The Long Island Rough Riders sit in third place with the same points, but less games played. And since I last wrote, FC Indiana clinched a spot and the title for their [...]

In a few minutes, the USWNT kick off against Norway, in Norway. There are no known broadcasts or streams that I’m aware of (go figure).
The under 20s are off to their World Cup and the under 17s are off to try to qualify for theirs.

It’s that dreaded ACL again. Whitehill tore it during Tuesday’s training and will now miss the Olympics. Stephanie Cox takes her place on the Peace Cup roster.
Also on Tuesday, Tampa’s Hampton Roads Piranhas were awarded the hosting rights for this year’s W-League semi-finals and finals set for July 31 and August 2. [...]
