Beth Mead when asked about Megan Rapinoe:

Following calls from the players association to support their emergency fund, listening to the Portland fan community, and speaking with team leaders to understand their progress underway, we are taking an immediate next step to redirect Alaska Airlines’ Timbers and Thorns FC sponsorship funds this quarter to the National Women’s Soccer League Players Association “Support the Players Emergency Trust” and to youth sports in the Portland community. We entered into this partnership as a commitment to the Portland community, and that commitment has not changed.

Lol maybe your other anon Is on to something… look at Beth staring hard and concentrating on her phone, realising the social media team has caught her and looking smirking suspicious as she boards the bus!

And here’s why the league has refereeing problems in general: a ref moves up the ranks based on experience and of course quality. Once a person makes it to the 4th rank, they are eligible for refereeing NWSL matches. To referee an MLS match, a ref must be at rank 7. So basically the NWSL gets people that don’t have that much experience and are mediocre at best at refereeing in general. Chesky is probably at a rank 5 if I had to guess considering her experience, but since her quality is poor she hasn’t moved up to a 6

Hear me out… maybe we shouldn’t create a schedule where one team plays 9 regular season games in about 30 days (plus two CC games).
