Would be great if this works out! Sure there are concerns about how/when/if they can pull it off but it’s without a doubt the right move. And the other thing is that even if it’s not an immediate overnight success they can change and tweak things to get the best results

2-0 the most dangerous lead in spots

jeremyrist.bsky.social @jeremyrist.bsky.social · May 18

Megan Reid been watching playoff hockey 😂 gotta be careful on that yellow now tho

jeremyrist.bsky.social @jeremyrist.bsky.social · May 10

Great home win for Angel City! The 2-0 result was great but it felt like once again we had overly harsh refereeing on just us, the attendance was poor, and the Savy King medical emergency was terrifying. Hoping she’s alright 🙏🏻

I still haven’t seen footage of what led to Laity’s red card… did I miss it or is it just nonexistent??
