a lot of people don't realize that Christmas carols and traditions are actually folk memories of suppressed pre-Christian events, namely the end of the Third Age and the Fall of Sauron.

Oh these owners are in for a reckoning

Heard buzz over 2025 that the league, owners, and possibly CSOs were all feeling that player power had gone too far in NWSL, and can't help but think today's HIP announcement is linked.
Doesn't seem to have gone over well!

Emma’s substitution pattern/rotation plans/pain caves getting to dictate if a player gets a huge contract or not…what are we doing here. Let the teams decide who is a high impact player or not!!!
OK, so the league clarified that it's the Top 11 in *either* 2024 or 2025. Here's the list. Players highlighted in yellow qualify for HIP.
Even with this clarification, you've created a situation where Michelle Cooper was just 21 minutes from being eligible for a massive contract.

It doesn’t need to be said, as it’s plain enough to see, but speaking as a person who’s been involved in compiling shortlists of the best players in the world, for multiple outlets, that is such a dumb metric to use for anything

Allocation by any other name. Making marketability a requirement is a dangerous game to play in a racist sport. But that's my little ol opinion.

one thing that’s become very obvious about jessica berman’s nwsl is that owners would still much rather pay lawyers than players
Statement from the NWSLPA. The union is definitely not on board with the new High Impact Player Rule. #NWSL

High impact player rule - the player should have at least one million Instagram followers, be lactose intolerant, score at least 1100 on the SATs, have a 4.7 Uber rating, and their favorite color should be blue.

OK, the normal way Bivens works is you only have a claim if the victim's name is Bivens, but what if the federal agent's name is Bivens.
This morning at the airport, the TSA officer’s nameplate said “Bivens.”
I was so excited/distracted that I nearly walked right through the metal detector with my phone in my pocket.

When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.
Seems like it's worth posting this one again.
