this is precisely the core of it
the whole reason to be in NWSL ownership is that you're betting on *growth*
league revenue is already on a parabolic trajectory and it's reasonable to believe it can continue
but if you want it to continue, you have to actually make some commitments to growth

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

I love how the rasputin of the Biden white house is a straight nazi
I continue to think that Matty coming out against birthright citizenship a few months ago should have been taken as a major warning sign that the group chats have already decided to surrender on this.

Do they just think there'll never be enough of a backlash for court packing to happen? What is the political theory of the case?

nwsl owners do not want to have the best league in the world, they want widespread mediocrity that they can position as 'parity' and 'the most competitive league.' it's literally the nfl model attempted in a sport with a global market that can and will leave the nwsl behind.
