I understand how Ballon d'Or voting could be involved in the new High Impact Player system, but will also be irritated by it every day for as long as the system would be in place.

Ballon d'Or voting is consistently, egregiously flawed when it comes to NWSL, due to its nomination process.

NWSL bagging millions of dollars from expansion teams and media corporations 🤑💵🤑💵🤑💵

This is a massive loss for the Stars, but I assume we’ll shortly see Masar take a head coaching job somewhere.

Wherever that is will be lucky to have her #withthestars #nwsl
Thank you, Ella, for everything.

We're wising you all the best on your journey ahead. 🩵

Ella Masar 2025 greatest hits thread:
Ella Masar poked her head in the conference room after the presser and joked “want to know what I thought?”

She was promptly shooed away.

Again, as a reminder, Naomi Girma wasn't even nominated for a BDO the year she won a Shield and a gold medal while playing every minute. She'd qualify because she's a US player, but we haven't dealt with our biases enough to tie people's salaries to this. Ion like it.

The much larger window playing a commercial next to the game that is actively going on is crazy. Picture in Picture ads should be banned!! #NWSL

This is great work and really poses more questions about what the league is doing to address its systemic issues.

In a year where Montoya was allowed to walk away on his own timetable and Nahas was fired for “a multitude of factors”… 43 complaints over a year and half is a problem.
It took myself and @lesleyryder.bsky.social doing a lot of FOIAs, but we finally have a look at how many reports of toxic environment + other complaints the NWSL is getting.

Records show they got 43 complaints last year, five by July 31 of this year.

Paywall is down since it’s public records:

Our 2nd annual @espn.com anonymous #NWSL general manager survey is here, and the clearest trend from hours of interviews over the past two months is what's now playing out: concern about the limitations of the salary cap, and the inability to retain and attract the world's top players (inc. #USWNT).
NWSL GM survey: Is the salary cap a problem? Are teams still breaking rules?
ESPN's NWSL GM survey returns as execs dish on the worst front offices, tensions with USWNT, breaking the rules, their player wish list and more.
