First off, thank you. That's a great first post. I appreciate the work.habeasdorkus posted:
Rapinoe plays in Seattle, thanks for the cruel reminder. Portland has Tobin Heath, Lindsay Horan, Emily Sonnet and AD Franch who played for the USWNT. Christine Sinclair played for Canada and is few goals shy of Wambach's all time international record. Ellie Carpenter and Steph Catley played for Australia. Andressinha played for Brazil. All but the US players have returned (but did not play well against Seattle last week). While they international players were gone Midge Purce and Simone Charley held it down and the Thorns did pretty well in June. Nobody expects US National Team players tomorrow.

Dunn was shown on the Jumbotron at about the 35th minute of the Timbers game tonight. xeria posted:Catley also plays for Reign! Portland has Foord as the other noted Aussie. Ah gently caress, of course I got them confused.

Can't believe I forgot Haley Raso. She just got a goal in the 3rd minute after getting the keeper to cough up the ball https://twitter.com/ThornsFC/status/1150483021948055552?s=19

https://twitter.com/ThornsFC/status/1150902866824929280 Funny story about the end of that Portland/Orlando game yesterday. Since I (help) run the Riveters merch sales w/ one of my best friends for Thorns games we usually leave a couple of minutes before the end of the game so we can up and running by the time people are out of the stadium. Yesterday we left around the 86th minute when it was 3-2 Portland. We got into the Fanladen and started setting things up. My friend turned on the computer and got the TV up and running the stream so we could get post game stuff. Right as she turned it on Lussi is running towards the corner after scoring the last minute stoppage time goal. Then for the next hour as I sold merch people kept asking me "how about that Lussi goal though?"

We got some midweek action tonight. Sky Blue hosts Washington at 7:30pm Eastern and Portland hosts Houston at 7:30pm Western. If you're in Portland come say hi at the fanladen before the match (we're not opening after).

I've heard "well now that the National Team players are back blah blah blah..." from a couple of people this past week and I'm just "The gently caress? The Thorns didn't lose during the World Cup break. We were fine and the games were fun. Also, Midge loving Purce."

Here's a good piece on the post WC attendance bump. The only thing I want to add is that for a "record breaking" sell out there were solid patches of empty seats throughout the stadium on Sunday. https://equalizersoccer.com/2019/08/12/portland-set-a-new-nwsl-attendance-record-but-this-isnt-just-their-moment/

https://www.redbubble.com/people/mm...20front%20pride There's the shirt. It's available on a bunch of other different things too. Fun fact: Sunday, the loudly out and proud mohawked capo for the Thorns and Timbers, wore that dress for a Thorns match a couple of weeks ago. She got a request from her season ticket rep for her to have a 1 on 2 meeting with Merritt and the director of operations Mike Golub about the dress. That was neat because the FO has maintained that personal clothing was fine. Anyway, that didn't work out well for them. Follow up lol. This is Sunday's wife Heidi. The Timbers have no defenders on the bench tonight. https://twitter.com/Drink_Mixxer/status/1167975161795993601 highme fucked around with this message at 03:29 on Sep 1, 2019 |

Looks like I chose the right night to say "Holy gently caress I've been at the stadium enough the past 2 months." Also, despite enforcing the bullshit MLS ban on political speech for Thorns games too they had a swearing in ceremony for recently enlisted troops at half.

Midge Purce is the Supporters Player of the year in Portland. She was instrumental to the Thorn's success during the world cup with 9 players in France and I am glad she was recognized for that

Of the attacking players that are no longer players, Purce is the only one that really contributed on a regular basis. Foord & Crnogorcevic never really figured out how to put the ball in the net. Though, it sounds like Raso is off to Everton so that'll sting a bit.

There was a moment in stoppage when Sinclair put her head down and beat the outside back with pace. That’s the moment I knew the underdogs were gonna have to wait another year to taste glory.

Our current air quality mess is because a lot of Oregon is on fire. When the east winds fueling our fires finish dying out and the normal on shore flow comes back that's when we get to enjoy all of California being on fire. The AQI outside my house right now has been fluctuating in the 400s all day.

https://twitter.com/thornsfc/status/1380746659743735808?s=21 Weaver might have deserved a yellow there, but from my perspective Edmonds was the instigator and Weaver’s red was way too harsh. Lol Merritt had tweeted out a second angle but has deleted it already. Simone Charley’s second yellow was a stupid challenge in KCs 18, absolutely a card. Not sure what made MarPar think that was worth getting his own red for but that’s why he’s the gaffer.

Apparently, for a whole portion of WoSo Twitter, that “Weaver is Innocent” tweet was racist.

Yes, 4 were issued during the match but Weaver’s was rescinded today.
