Ep #134: The Women’s Professional Soccer League (WPSL) isn’t what it seems

Hey friend! We’re so excited you’re here and we can’t wait to share today’s episode of The GIST of It. Co-hosts Ellen and Steph discuss why the announcement of a Canadian Women’s Soccer League might not be as exciting as it sounds.   They’ll cover why professional women’s soccer players deserve better (something we will never stop talking about, TBH), and end with a WTF moment concerning the ongoing media coverage — or lack thereof — of the PSG Féminine attacks we covered last month.  Today’s episode is brought to you by FanDuel and Canadian Tire. The NFL regular season might be coming to a close, but it’s still a party over at our GIST-exclusive fantasy football contest. Head to fanduel.com/gist to join in on all the fun today.   And we’re such fans of what Canadian Tire is doing with their Jumpstart Charities, dedicated to saving youth sports through their Jumpstart Sport Relief Fund. More kids in sports is exactly what we love to see. Head on over to jumpstart.canadiantire.ca to learn more about their vital work.  Show notes: New York Times article on the PSG attack More on The GIST: Subscribe: thegistsports.com/subscribepodTwitter: @thegistpodEmail: [email protected] IG: @thegistca @thegistusa
