Okay, finally done with work day and putting daughter to sleep. So many thoughts, starting with: what is described in the article from @itsmeglinehan is rape. Impossible to consent when intoxicated AND the power imbalance between coach and player. #BAONPDX #NWSL.

Ridiculously sweet. @alexmorgan13 stops to give (+ autograph) her cleats for a young girl on post game lap. #BAONPDX

HUGE line of people waiting to get into the casino in Trouville-sur-Mer this Sunday morning. It turns out the line is for COVID vaccinations, after President Macron announced they would be essentially mandatory for French people to participate in public life starting in August.

Everyone knows this already, but @ADizzle23 is a class act. Such mutual respect between her and @PDXRivetersSG last night. Of course we threw “dodgy keeper” at her. But after the match, when she came to get her water bottle, we cheered her big time and she saluted. #BAONPDX #NWSL.

This year’s class of graduating seniors at Westview holds a special place in my heart. On September 24th, 2014, during passing time, many of my 9th grade students in Global Studies saw me break down in the middle of our classroom. I had just received a phone call from my mom. .

So, 13 teachers on staff at Westview are expected to be cut next year due to the Beaverton School District budget, along with an enormous amount of other staff (tech/PD/AVID/SPED/ELL). Class sizes will jump big time. Not a good meeting.

Yes. @OregonGovBrown should absolutely commute the sentences all of the death row inmates in Oregon to life in prison.
This should mean Biden commuting death sentences. It should mean Gov. Newsom commuting death sentences. It should mean Gov. Northam commuting death sentences. It should mean Gov. Brown commuting death sentences. It should mean Gov. Wolf commuting death sentences.

It has never been clearer as to why it is important that the media as a whole cover women's sports. Without our subscriptions to @TheAthletic, does @itsmeglinehan have the time, resources, and institutional support to be able to pursue this story? #BAONPDX #NWSL.

You know how the Washington Post tagline is now "Democracy Dies in Darkness"? So does everything else. We as #NWSL supporters are extremely fortunate to have @itsmeglinehan (and a handful of others) as journalists covering the league. More coverage = better. #BAONPDX.

Shout out Roosevelt Step Up! I worked for Step Up at Marshall and then McDaniel (it was Madison at the time) out of grad school.
Shoutout to Roosevelt High School’s Grace Schuh. Grace is currently a 4.0 student known for always offering to help others. She shows up every day ready to work hard and be kind to everyone. Grace is involved in Step Up and was the team manager for the volleyball team.

For literally the very first public personnel move under the new GM and coach regime, this is obviously an incredibly bad decision. I am all for second chances, and, too many trans kids don’t get the chance to play at ALL in this country. I’ll side with them. #BAONPDX.

In this full interview, Sinc makes it pretty clear she will remain in Portland after her playing career and move to a Front Office position. #BAONPDX #NWSL.
A leader. A legend. The club’s all-time leader in games played and goals scored is staying in Portland for the 2023 season. 🌹. 💻 full interview ➡️

At this exact moment, five years ago, at 7:00 PM on January 18, 2013, the meeting to create @PDXRivetersSG began. As a history teacher and an enormous @ThornsFC fan, I thought I would take one of my occasional trips down memory lane. (Thread) #BAONPDX.

Total number of @PDXRivetersSG supporters headed north this weekend to see @ThornsFC on the road in the sections reserved for us: 264! We are pretty confident this is an all-time record for a single Thorns away match (not partnered with Timbers). Amazing work, all! #BAONPDX #NWSL.

THIS. If you are in Portland, and comfortable attending a game outside tomorrow, this is an incredible opportunity to see two titans in women's club soccer face off for the first time. #BAONPDX #NWSL.
.@mparsons_1 on Thorns-Lyon: . “You'd probably argue the two biggest women's clubs in the world, brand-wise, history, support … Absolute heavyweights, and to see them go head-to-head is - I think women's football's been screaming for it, and we’ll be ready to play our part.".

Amazing that Thorns semifinal tickets for STH are now opt-out (credit card on file will be charged if you do nothing), instead of opt-in. Heads up for anyone who skipped over the email and isn't available November 14th! #BAONPDX.

Earlier this evening, I tweeted out a welcome to the Thorns first round draft pick. Unbeknownst to me at the time (and apparently the team too, which is unacceptable), the player has a history of transphobic and xenophobic posts on social media. I have deleted the tweet.

A drive across the city later, and here it is! My favorite ever player, who got me into women’s soccer, and who I just got a personalized jersey of, as well! Good times all around! Thank you, @NWSL, @ParksideCards, @sincy12, @charlesthe25th, and @Rayterrill! #BAONPDX #NWSL

Finally, I'm donating $107 right now to @nwsl_players. It's a number that's significant for us in Portland. If it's even $1.07, I urge you to join me in supporting the players who've been so egregiously taken advantage of for far too long. #BAONPDX #NWSL
