Ah Sh!t, Here We Go Again
from Diaspora United Hosted by Diaspora United
Courtney and André are back! The NWSL is back! And racism in WoSo is back! Sigh. We discuss the racial discrimination and targeting that happened to Sarah Gorden's boyfriend after the Challenge Cup opener in Houston. Then we hop up to the Pacific Northwest where the Portland Thorns managed to turn a scuffle between two players into a racist incident of their own. We talk about much of Portland refusing to log off, or, instead, celebrate a win in front of fans -- something they hadn't been able to do since September 21, 2019. Then we shift our attention to the USWNT and breakdown what went oh so horribly wrong against Sweden, plus what needs to happen (and who does and doesn't need to start) to make sure that performance isn't repeated versus France.
