Ep. 218: NWSL Mess

In this episode, Lindsay Gibbs, Shireen Ahmed and Jessica Luther start the show with a few of their favorite U.S. Open moments. Then, they discuss the off-the-field mess in the National Women's Soccer League, including a high turn over of coaches, broadcasting issues and an overall lack of transparency and accountability. They also talk about what changes are vital for the league to improve. Following this discussion is Thursday's interview preview of Lindsay's talk with Courtney Stith and André Carlisle of the Diaspora United Podcast about NWSL on-the-field excitement. Then, they burn the worst of sports this week in the Burn Pile. Next, they celebrate those bringing light to sports and the world, which includes Golden Slam (!!!) wheelchair tennis champ Diede de Groot, and U.S. Open women's finalists Leylah Annie Fernandez and Emma Raducanu. Then, they wrap up the show with what's good in their lives and what sports they're watching this week.
