Sounding like a standard U10 parent on the sideline with this USWNT game - ‘shoot! Shoot! Take the shot!’

I get that there’s different NWSL broadcast deals and things are in different streamers; but I’d still love a consistency in offering up the previous day’s match highlights on NWSL+ within a dependable window.
I swear in my head there's a power pop/ new wave version of '16 Tons' by someone like Robert Johnson (Close Personal Friend guy, not Crossroads blues guy) done in maybe the late 70s. The internet seems to know nothing about it. Did i dream it?
1. Gotham looked a lot tighter and more locked-in on Sunday night vs the Wednesday Denver game.
2. Feels like every early season we wait for the goals to start coming through.
@henryatspotify.bsky.social hey hey I'm working with an incredible Harlem NYC vocalist Alicia Waller. Jazz/soul vibes, classical vocal training and a range of cool influences. Would love if it fit for New Jazz 26? Thanks for listening open.spotify.com/track/6OWSjW...

How it started / how it’s going - 2025.
Lets go @gothamfc.bsky.social
The Jaedyn Shaw set piece goal was 💯 but then the AKB save at the end was also one for the ages.
The ‘vanilla iPhone’ ad is starting to approach ‘Paintin’ Manning’ levels.
Another amazing Gotham win - finals time!
Wait the Saints won too? This is the greatest day in sports for me since the ‘86 World Series.
Listened to the interviews w Lily and Mandy this week pre - Gotham v KC match and it was great to hear and appreciate how seriously and confidently the whole team took the match.
OMG @gothamfc.bsky.social
Aaahhh - 30 minutes to potential glory! Let’s go Gotham!
If your plan this Fall is a) to rake the leaves off your lawn or b) not to rake the leaves off your lawn, there’s lots of great articles online supporting your decision.
Tough call!
Accidentally played what I think of as 'my funeral song' while prepping for a potential artist discussion; and now enjoying the thought of folks streaming around the church with tears running down as they're surrounded by the beautiful soundbath.

Tomorrow in Montclair - the great Steve Earle returns to the Outpost! Buzzing young Americana singer Zandi Holup opens the show. A few tix still available on the Outpost site or Watchung Books.
(Does Bsky want my music content too? It's mainly upcoming shows plus a bunch of dumb music jokes...)
Ok while everybody's feeling good about a lot of stuff I'll just mention, my wildly hopeful read on the NWSL playoffs is that after last week, if Gotham could somehow go into KC and emerge with a win they'd definitely turn into the team of the year ...
Good morning from 12-y..o. me browsing the postcards at K&B in New Orleans
Cool job alert!
Lily Reale looked great in this international camp. She had strong presence tonight and is in a great position to build her role with the squad.
WoSo and @uswnt.ussoccer.com fans have certainly heard the term ‘purpose-built’ a lot more in the past year than ever before.
And playing in Montclair @outpostintheburbs.bsky.social next week 11/8!
Gotham FC @gothamfc.bsky.social come back in a thriller to draw Louisville 2-2 and clinch playoffs. It was great to be there in person and see Lavelle convert a banger of a free kick from the top of the box to make it happen. (And I’m still glad Rose didn’t make that same kick in the ‘23 finals 😉)
I'm into petting floof, I ain't into making love
I mean if you're gonna call your Billy Joel tribute band Captain Jack, you better be prepared for people to leave comments on your show promo posts saying "eh I'm just gonna sit at home and masturbate."
Lily Reale on the October roster 👍🦇
